Big beach house in great location

Great to feel the ocean breeze throughout the house. The recent renovations make the house feel light and fresh. Lots of space with 5 spacious bedrooms and 2 large living areas. Enjoyed being so close to the ocean and local shops.

Wanda Avenue treasure

This property was such a treat! We love having our two dogs with us and the large fenced in backyard was perfect for them, we felt so good knowing we could go out for a dinner and we didn’t need to worry about them at all! Julie was such a great host, she was quick to respond to any of our questions and truly was above and beyond to accommodate us. The house has such a lovely outlook over the water and it was so nice to head out the front door and in just a few feet the water is lapping at your toes! I’m looking forward to coming back to enjoy the Port Stephen’s area and I would come back to stay here in a heartbeat! Thanks so much for having us! Tim & Jes

Beautiful house to share with friends

Had such a fantastic weekend with long time friends . The house was so clean and spacious and perfect for the 5 of us to relax and catch up . We loved having drinks on the deck and walking to the beach . Had a beautiful meal from the local Thai as well as an amazing dinner at Rick Steins which is only a short distance away. Julie is a superb host . Highly recommend this place

Convenient location with all basic amenities included

The property suited our beach getaway with friends ( 4 adults, 4 kids and a dog). Location was close to beaches and salamander shops. Kitchen had all the things we needed and the property provided all the space required so everyone could have some quiet time as well. Note, there is one airconditioning unit in the living room and there is no airconditioning in the rooms (only ceiling fans) - therefore the upstairs bedrooms can be a little stuffy if it was a very hot day.
