The Calm
Great location and easy process. Would recommend.

Beds on Bent
Really enjoyed our night stay with Maureen - great location with an easy walk to everything you need. Maureen was fabulous to deal with - welcoming on arrival and really helpful throughout our stay. Loved the details of the accomodation.

Oceanic 21 - Forster Beachfront Apartment
Stunning views of the beautiful beach and there is a great coffee shop on the same street. The apartment has everything needed for a holiday with family and is very neat and tidy. The fruit and cheese platter on our arrival was so lovely and unexpected. We will be returning!

Absolute Beachfront @ The Entrance
I had a wonderful one night stay at Jonathan’s place. I have to agree with all the positive reviews on the property. It was a very welcoming place, right on the water, and in a fantastic location within walking distance to the main attractions. I would definitely come back!

East end apartment in leafy heritage precinct.
Great stay in a fabulous location. Apartment is very cute and comfortable. Lovely eclectic vibe. Bianca is a great host - very helpful and welcoming. Will definitely stay there again :)

Water Views of Shoal Bay Beach!
Location is perfect. Amazing view and verandah. Lovely to wake up to and watch the sunset. Super close to the water and walking distance to all restaurants and cafes. Spacious and all amenities you need. Comfy lounge, good tv, modern look. Could do with some new pillows and the shower needs updating (temp regulation not great). Otherwise recommend and would stay here again for sure.

Absolute Waterfront Cottage in Port Stephens
Thanks Kenny for a great stay beautiful spot.

Sand Waterfront Lake House Lake Macquarie
We absolutely loved our time at Sand Lakehouse! It is a beautiful place to unwind and watch the water; so much bird activity on and around the lake, it was just wonderful. The house itself is spacious and appointed thoughtfully, and there was nothing we lacked. The fire pit made for a fun night of toasting marshmallows and the local ducks provided much entertainment. The bliss of having a cup of tea on the jetty cannot be overstated! Stephen was a responsive and helpful host, and there's even an IGA within walking distance for anything you've forgotten. A great place to stay; we would highly recommend.

Getaway Lakefront Environmental House with Kayaks
Our holiday at Helen's lakeside property was absolutely fantastic! The location could not have been more perfect, right in front of a serene lake with picture-perfect scenery. The view from the property was breathtaking, providing the perfect backdrop for a relaxing and memorable stay. The spacious outdoor deck allowed us to fully enjoy the natural beauty around us, whether we were having meals, playing games, or simply soaking in the view. Inside, the house was just as impressive—spacious, immaculate, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It was clear that Helen has taken great care in maintaining the property, and it made our family feel right at home. What made this holiday even more special was the fact that it was a multi-generational trip with our children and grandchildren. There was plenty of room for everyone to relax, unwind, and enjoy each other’s company. The property truly provided a perfect setting for family bonding, and we made wonderful memor

MAGNIFICENT LAKEFRONT BEACH HOUSE. Central Coast.
This lakeside home is the perfect getaway for large family gatherings for all ages! The pool was AMAZING, the pool table was used constantly, the kitchen was well stocked and the 3 main bedrooms has the most incredible views. The beds were all very comfortable, and there were multiple TVs to suit everyone. The bathrooms were spacious and modern. The views were stunning across the lake, especially at sunset. our family of 13 had a very special and memorable stay. Justin's videos were very helpful and his communication was excellent.

Family Home on Lake Macquarie
Beautiful location by the water. The house was nice and big for our family holiday and lots for space for the kids. The baby cot and high chair was especially helpful for my sister's baby which we really appreciated. Rooms were lovely but the highlight was the balcony/deck where we had breakfast. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful family holiday. Thanks for a lovely stay Kate!

Luxury Waterfront | Water Skier's Paradise

Waterfront condo rentals

Honeysuckle Delight| Heated Pool, Gym, Sauna
The apartment and the amenities are outstanding. We returned here because we had to extend staying away from our house because of renovations. This was our first choice and u cannot recommend it enough. What really does need highlighted is how much of an outstanding history Connie is. She was so understanding, compassionate, super friendly and flexible. She deserves 10 stars.

SOULbySEA Beachfrt & Amazing Views - Coastal luxe
We had an AMAZING stay at Dave and Beth’s place!! Not only was the location perfect for us - directly across the street from Flynn’s Beach - but the apartment had everything we’re needed, and more! From the bottle of wine and the coffee they had left for us on our arrival, to the drinking chocolate and the variety of teas in the pantry, it was clear they really cared about making their guests feel right at home. They even made sure we knew where the First Aid Kit and the fire extinguisher was prior to our arrival. It’s those little details that make us know that really care : ) Thanks Dave and Beth for an unforgettable stay!!

Nelson Bay Gem
Nice place by the sea, though the ocean view was limited. Super close to shops and everything we needed. The host was easy to communicate with and replied quickly. Overall, a great stay!

"The View" Waterfront Apartment Shoal Bay
Thanks so much Mark & Leah for a wonderful stay. The view from this appartment is just stunning and the appartment itself was spacious, spotless and so comfortable for our stay. Bed was super comfy too and despite being right on the front the place was very soundproofed. Mark was very responsive when we were getting in and on the lead up to our stay. Thanks!

Relax in a stylish retreat by the beach and ocean
hosts were really lovely and even left home made cookies for arrival! Lovely clean apparentment close to the beach and walks. I didn't realise there was no oven so that was the only downside for us but it was great value for the money
