Luxury by the sea - 4 bedrooms

CathyRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We really enjoyed our stay at Pieta’s property. Very good location for walking to the beach and short distance driving to the shopping centre and restaurants. The house is very spacious with big kitchen and plenty of cooking wares. The balcony has a great view as well. We will come back to stay her place next time.

'Beattie's Beach Pad' Central SWRs - Deck & BBQ

CodyRating, 5 stars2 months ago

We loved our stay here. James was accomodating and prompt when we requested an early check in and can’t fault the location. Super close to the beach and main part of town we barely had to drive anywhere during our stay. Very clean and tidy apartment. Would love to stay again.

Grass Trees on Skyline

JackRating, 5 stars3 days ago

Would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to stay in Crescent Head. Josie & Joel are really nice people, and easy to communicate with and quick to respond when messaging. The check in was really easy and they were really flexible with the check in and check out times which was handy. The photos don't do this place justice, beautiful view of the ocean and well-located, walking distance to town. The place was spotless and has everything you need. Thanks again Josie and Joel, we'll definitely be back! :)

Coastal Charm on Chapman

seanRating, 5 stars1 week ago

This Airbnb was absolutely spotless! Jo was very welcoming and incredibly responsive. The location was perfect for exploring Port Macquarie, and the apartment was equipped with everything we needed, including a well-stocked kitchen. There was fresh bread, milk, yoghurt, fresh fruit and easter eggs for the kids. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Port Macquarie! It was a home away from home!!

Crescent Head 4 bedroom waterfront beach cottage

TraceyRating, 5 stars6 days ago

This is the perfect property for a family or small group of friends to stay for a relaxing holiday in Crescent Head. It's walking distance to town, and a handful of steps to the water. Brian is lovely, friendly, and extremely helpful. He's stocked the place with everything you'd need, from kayaks and paddle boards to plenty of kitchen utensils. The beds are really comfortable, too. This place is absolutely brilliant!

The Vibe Beach House - direct beach access, spa

BenRating, 5 stars3 months ago

Fantastic house for a family getaway. We had two families travel to this beautiful house and it was a perfect setup for everyone. Great location with local shops & a café/restaurant/supermarket nearby. Short drive to the lake which was perfect for kids to go fishing, swimming & jumping off the bridge! We had a few wet days but the large rumpus room provided lots of options to keep everyone entertained & the covered jacuzzi kept everyone warm. Made homemade pizzas in the outdoor oven which came out great. Fantastic stay and will be back again

Tiny TINY Garden Cottage

SimoneRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago

What a special experience! This tiny would have to be one of my favourite stays on Airbnb. Staying off grid, tucked away in the wilderness for almost a week, was such an immersive adventure. Despite occupying a small footprint, with the open loft space above and cosy sleep space below, it was such a practical, liveable space. The loft was perfect for eating, reading etc and bellow, with its wonderfully comfortable mattress, numerous pillows and cushions there was another cosy corner to relax in. The decks provided beautiful views to just sit and watch nature do her thing. And then at the end of the day, there was that glorious open air shower!There was something so nurturing and nourishing washing away the day, under the stars! I ordered a box of locally grown produce and it was more than plentiful, enabling me to prepare scrumptious meals with just a few simple additions. It was all so thoughtfully curated ; it had everything I needed and nothing I didn’t. Thank you ?

Rippa's Rest

TamsynRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We all had such an amazing time at Rippas Rest. The kids, hubby and i really enjoyed the beautiful pool and tennis court and the lovely house and surroundings. Our little Boston had such a good time with all the toys and all that space to run with secure fencing throughout the property. Justine provided all the information required, clear instructions and the place had everything we needed and more! Cant wait to go back for a winter stay.
