Holiday rentals with beach access in Hawks Nest

Our stay with Bree was amazing. Great location and beautiful surroundings with lots of things to see and do around. Bree was a great host and was really friendly and responsive with everything we needed. Would definitely come and stay again!

Our stay at this beautiful waterside home was nothing short of magical. The location is absolutely stunning — waking up to the gentle sounds of the water and enjoying coffee on the deck with that view was a dream. One of the highlights of our trip was seeing dolphins swimming right past the house! It was such a peaceful and unforgettable moment. The house itself was spotless, well-equipped, and clearly cared for with love. The hosts were incredibly kind and responsive, making check-in a breeze and offering great local tips. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a serene getaway by the water!

Jonathan is the most amazing host. The apartment is absolutely breathtaking and I was not prepared for the view. The place is of a high standard of quality and cleanliness. The kitchen is equipped with quality supplies. And the kitchen towels are abundant and fresh (I'm a chef so this was so beautiful to see) everything there that you would need for a home away from home. luxury bathroom with more than adequate supplies. Peaceful, safe, amazing living and dining area, the most freshest bed I've ever slept in. Thank you so much, Jonathan for having me. I recommend this place so highly and with the assurance that it's the best airbnb I have ever stayed and will definitely be coming back.

We had a wonderful stay at Jennifer’s place. Everything was as described and such a great location. Jennifer is a great host, very responsive and friendly. We enjoyed our stay so much and would definitely stay again.

Loved the view from the loungeroom & balcony. Everything was neat & tidy. Lots of books, DVDs, etc. Great smart TV. Beds were comfy. Nice & roomy apartment. Well equipped kitchen. Had a lovely time.

Yantra's place was a peaceful hideaway tucked away in Avoca. The place was clean and well maintained yet cozy, had all the amenities we needed (portable stove, pots and pans, oil, utensils, washing machine, internet, dryer). The outdoor sitting area was comfortable and overlooked the beautiful garden. The place colourful and full of personality, we felt very at home during our stay. Thank you again.

Graham as a wonderful host! Place was great and even better than the photos. Do yourself a favour and stay at Grahams!!!

completely beautiful home in a stunning location, Alan and Helen couldn't have made us feel more at home. definitely cannot wait to book again on our next trip north. cheers Scott 🍻

Our stay at the Redhead Beach House was fantastic. The house itself was well designed, spacious, clean and beautifully decorated. We were welcomed with a platter and wine waiting for us and everything was well stocked and easy to find. Great selection of board games, table tennis and arcade game meant there was plenty to do when we were at the house. The area was beautiful and quiet. A great beach over the road - both our 11 year old daughter and our dog loved it! Overall, I would highly recommend. Thank you Natalie and Collin for your hospitality.

Roger was an excellent host! Very accommodating and even prepared eggs and bread for breakfast the next day. The couple were very friendly on arrival and mentioned we had all day for check-out since it was raining. Highly recommend Robyn's nest hideaway for your next airbnb in Ports Stephen!

A beautiful house in a fantastic spot near Birubi beach and the Tomaree Coastal walk. The layout is great and the house is very stylish. The spa was awesome. Seem small at first but really deep and heats up within 2.5 hours. Plenty of space in the house for a family of 5. Walkable to Birubi beach (10 mins) which is patrolled with a cafe and is great for boogie boarding. Join the coastal walk only 1 min walk away, bring hiking boots as can be a bit muddy/rocky.

We absolutely loved our stay at Michelle and Andrew’s beautiful place! The décor was stunning, and the house has a welcoming atmosphere that made us feel right at home. Everything was spotlessly clean and wonderfully tidy, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Every little detail had been thoughtfully considered, with so many extras provided to make our stay incredibly comfortable and easy. Best of all were the accomodations and little touches for dogs throughout the house. We (and our pup) loved the welcome package 🐾 It truly had everything we needed — and more! We would highly recommend the home to anyone looking for a relaxing and delightful getaway.

Everything exactly as advertised. Clear instructions. Immaculate. Despite a rainy weekend, the house still felt warm and cozy. It had everything you could need, from a baby cot to a coffee machine, game boards, basic condiments in the kitchen, additional pillows... Loved the heat fittings in the bathrooms. Lovely back view to little forrest. Anthony was clea r with his messages. Totally smooth transaction.

Fabulous chilled out beach side weekend with adult children and 2 x dogs. Hosts have a perfect house to relax, surf or take in beach scenery walks. House well appointed with fur family perfectly considered. Paul and De are great hosts. Thank you

A great property to base yourself while in Shoal Bay. 10 minute walks into Shaol Bay, or to the beaches. To have Wreck beach 10 minute walk from your door is fantastic. Beds are extremely comfortable and the house was perfect for what we wanted. If we do get the opportunity to visit Shoal Bay again, we defiantly hope to stay here again.

Judy and Murray were impeccable hosts. They accommodated our booking at nearly the last minute for a week and communicated immediately. They asked about our preferences for breakfast and were kind enough to pick up a couple items for us ahead of time. Their home was easy to find and we had no problems parking, getting in, or using the space. The cabin has won awards for its design and is extremely cozy. The air/heating worked well, which was great for warm days and cold nights. We did have a small hitch with the WiFi while we were there, but our hosts did everything they could to rectify this issue; most of the problem was due to network upgrades being done in the area. Judy and Murray were amazing hosts, very gracious, incredibly responsive, and had lots of great suggestions for places to go and things to do. I recommend the walk to Crackneck lookout, which was a relatively easy walk (lots of uphill at the end) and a breathtaking view of the ocean!

This place was incredible! This holiday unit was beautiful, clean, ocean view, spacious and with all the amenities available including the pool and gym- I could not recommend this place enough. Lorraine was nice and really easy to communicate with, Thankyou for letting us stay at your place 😊

Perfect for a weekend or even long term getaway. Location was great, right in the heart of the city, 5-mins walk to a couple local pubs, cafes and convenience stores and 15-mins walk to beach and light rail interchange. Also noticed quite a few buses with different bus routes around the area as well. Check in was a breeze and not that I had any issues but Mel was quick to reply once I had advised check in and check out. The place itself was fantastic, ducted air con throughout, 2 very big comfy beds, large lounge area and huge dining area with a kitchen that had what you need to cook for a large group of people, if you wished. Having access to a washing machine and dryer is always a plus, esp. when there’s a 2nd toilet and the bathroom was clean as well. Would definitely look to stay there again if going back up to Newcastle.

Nice place with walking distance to the beach. Will definitely come back again during summer time. Loni is very responsive and helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at Adam's place. Loved the large deck - great for kids and adults alike. Everything was as per the description and photos on the website. It is a lovely open plan space. Everything you might need is within walking distance supermarket, bakery, Cafe, Golf Club. Playgrounds and of course the beach and river. Hawks Nest is a beautiful place we will be back.

We have been on a lengthy road trip and Bill’s place was our favourite out of every where we stayed. The views were amazing, everything we could need was catered for and we felt very comfortable and at home. Would have extended our stay if we weren’t on a schedule so will have to come back another time. Not sad about it-a wonderful part of the world and an awesome accommodation option 🙂

Absolutely incredible views! I’ve recommend this place to friends and family, very clean and can not fault it at all. Grant was a pleasure to deal with! definitely would book again 🙂

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

Definitely recommend staying here, we will be rebooking in the future
