Absolute Beachfront — The Mona View
We had an amazing time staying at Lucy's beachfront Airbnb! We spent a month there and loved waking up to the stunning sunrise every morning. The apartment was perfect for our family of four, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Lucy was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. We would absolutely love to return for another beach getaway!

Bar Beach Lux Ground Floor Apartment 100m to beach
Had a great stay here. Awesome location, right across from Bar Beach and good walking paths along the coast. Dave was quick to respond and helpful. Have already recommended this place to a friend.

Bill's
We had an incredible time at Vicki's place. The location is excellent, and the natural light in the apartment makes you want to stay in all day. It was spotless and had all the appliances we needed. If we return to Shoal Bay, we would definitely book it again. Vicki was very helpful and responsive, when we accidentally locked ourselves out, she had it sorted within 15 minutes. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I would absolutely recommend this place 100%. It was phenomenal.

Waterfront Port Stephens Dolphin Shores 2Kayak+SUP
Nice Seaview from back yard despite the weather was not good during our stay. Definitely recommend for everyone who wants to have a good time with family.

the best view in town
Bernadette’s place is a great find! Beautiful view overlooking the pool and lake, and the complimentary coffee/tea/cookies were a nice touch. Bed was also super comfy! Would definitely stay here again

Bouddi Bungalow - Modern 2bdrm Killcare Apartment
Great place for a weekend in Killcare! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment was clean, modern and had everything we could need for a lovely stay!

Shoal Bay Shores, modern beachfront unit + Wifi
Beautiful views, seen dolphins each morning and perfect sunrises! Had some beautiful lorikeet visitors on the balcony also, honestly took 2 minutes to get from the apartment out onto the beach, such a nice quiet apartment block and location! Can’t hear any street noise , just the waves on the shore, and the wildlife 😍 The place was super clean, comfortable beds also! self check in which is perfect, makes things so easy! Lovely hosts very friendly and helpful!

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.

Narrabeen Luxury Beachpad
Our stay was amazing! The place was spotless and exactly like the photos! Francine our stay extremely comfortable. 5 stars through and through!

A Picturesque Lakehouse | Fun & Zoned for Privacy
We had an amazing time at this property! From the moment we booked, Sandy was outstanding—super communicative, incredibly flexible, and genuinely accommodating. She went above and beyond to make our stay special, even hanging up a birthday sign for my father-in-law, which was such a thoughtful touch! The house itself was perfect for our family. The kids were thrilled with the games room—it kept them entertained for hours. We also loved having separate living areas for some quiet time, as well as a spacious communal area where we could all come together and relax. It’s clear Sandy pays attention to the little details that make a big difference. We felt truly welcomed and cared for throughout our stay. Highly recommend this place for families or groups looking for a comfortable, well-equipped, and heartwarming getaway!

Entire~Waterfront Home ~6ppl~WiFi~Kayaks~Netflix
Peaceful and relaxing place right on the river. Clean and cosy house. Kev and Kez were quick with responding to the messages. Would love to come back again.

Family Home on Lake Macquarie
We stayed in Kate’s place over a weekend to celebrate some significant birthdays with the family ranging in age from 71 to 0. It suited us perfectly! Well equipped for babies through to more elderly. 3 bathrooms, laundry and 5 bedrooms with separate TV room. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets, cosy fireside and fun on the lake at the bottom of the garden. Take board games and books. Location worked very well for us as some travelled from Sydney and some from Newcastle on a Friday evening. Can thoroughly recommend.

Group Haven - The Lake Haus - Waterfront w POOL
The location is perfect for a short getaway and very suitable for little kids. The house was very clean and has great amenities for kids. Renee is also very proactive with recommendations and the likes. We had a great stay!

The Lake House - Lakefront Oasis at Murrays Beach!
We had a lovely family getaway at this beautiful home. The space itself is spacious, well-designed, and perfect for spending quality time together—especially with the pool and outdoor area, which have so much potential for relaxing and making memories. Although we encountered a few hiccups during our stay, the host was incredibly responsive and proactive in addressing them, which we really appreciated. It’s clear they genuinely care about their guests' experience. With a bit more attention to detail, this property could be a standout holiday home. We’re grateful for the hospitality and would be happy to return in the future. Thank you again for hosting us!

Knights Ridge eco-cabin
Knights ridge felt like you were in your own secret valley , surrounded by ancient rock walls . Peaceful and uplifting . A picture out every window . Lots of rain just before our stay so the Creek was flowing and a vibrant green gully Lovely autumn colours . Lots of space and everything you needed for a peaceful break away from city life . The house was rustic and inviting with many collected unique pieces . Lots of space and different places to just be in the moment . Big sunny deck to relax Beautiful warm fire 🔥 that kept the house cosy . We spent 3 magic days there Loved it was off grid and so private . We definitely like to come back one day 💕

Ocean Vista apartment with direct beach access; 11
Great place! Amazing views. Perfect set up for a family of 4. Would definitely come back!

Beachside 3 Bedroom Townhouse Mona Vale Beach
The place was very close to Mona Vale Beach. Not far from the bus to the city or Manly. Close to Mona Vale shops.

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.

Beach House Sunset Vista - The Coachhouse Apt. 9
Had a great stay! Loved being right on the beach. Parking was the only pitfall but something out of their control. Great stay and will definitely attempt to stay there again!

Nelson Bay Gem
lovely stay! will definitely be staying again when back in town to visit family

"The View" Waterfront Apartment Shoal Bay
This accomodation was outstanding. Great location and the unit was equipped with everything you needed including some thoughtful items like a coffee machine, condiments in the fridge to a variety of tea and coffee selections. Communication was on point with step by step instructions on how to access the unit and Mark was very reactive to emails. The outlook was amazing, listening to the sound of the waves and the sunsets ❤️. I will be back..

Private Beachfront Apartment Backyard to Beach; 3
What a beautiful apartment! Comfortable beds and pillows, clean, tidy and had everything we could have needed. Even though we visited at a cooler time of the year, we really enjoyed being right on the beach, watching the waves and then retreating back into the cozy, warm apartment. Dan and Robert are very communicative and provided us with so much information to make sure we had an enjoyable and comfortable stay. We were especially grateful for the restaurant recommendations which were super close by with delicious food and friendly staff. We felt right at home, would recommend the Coachhouse beach apartments and would stay again. Thanks for having us!
