We booked this as part of a Groupon deal and we paid about $360 for 3 nights accommodation in a hotel-style room + a free dolphin watching cruise. The deal was great value as the location was great (really close to the main street and marina) and the dolphin cruise was good fun. However, there's not a lot of night... More

Great for families with independent older children or friends travelling together who want privacy. Agree with comments of old TV and these facilities have aged quickly with evidence of repairs to damaged... More

After spending 5 hours searching for decent and clean accomodation in Port Stephens we arrived at the reception placing it as the second last accomodation to look for before leaving back to Sydney. The lady at the desk was able to make something up for us! Even though the price was high, $280 per night, being fed up and and... More

Room was great. Modern and clean. Walk to the shops and the marina (10 minutes). Spacious rooms meant that life was very livable with the three children. Beautiful views across the bay More

Where possible we also advise guests that room images are indicative only. However we do sincerely apologise that the room you were allocated was not the... More

Pool area is very small and not enough sitting facilities. however we were really dissapointed on check in as the service we received on check in was very unprofesional, unfriendly and unhelpfull. i would definetly recommend staying here it was great, but the service needs improvement.. thanks More

We rented an Oaks property in Brisbane and are really glad we continued doing so down in the Hunter Valley, NSW. We have a 1 bedroom apartment which is spacious, clean and well equiped, other than the matress which is a little soft for my liking, but everything cannot be perfect. Kitchen is good and well equiped for our needs,... More
