Winter Getaway

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 5 Sept 2024
Loved it.

Large, spacious and beautifully set out room, with Kitchen, Bathroom separsate Bedroom, all large, well-lit and modern.

We had a second-floor apartment overlooking the Pool, which was clean and well maintained. Plenty of lounge chairs to sit on around the pool, with a large BBQ area along side.

5 min drive to the Town Centre, Supermarket around the corner. Only stayed 2 nights wish it was longer.

Highly recommended and will definitely be returning. 5 Star.

Lovely little motel near the ocean. Clean and spacious. Full kitchen with all utensils needed. We took a short 3min drive to Shoal Bay which was beautiful, however you could easily stroll down to the nearby beach from the motel. The pool and BBQ area looked clean and like they’d be great in summer! Kids also loved the big spa bath with shower. We arrived late afternoon and a key was left in a lock box by reception which was easy, then we met with Chris the next morning to check-in. Chris was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area.

Only things to mention would be: No aircon in bedrooms. No smart apps on TV (free-to-air or DVD only)

We have been visiting Port Stephens for over 17 years and this has been the best place we have stayed at. Our one bedroom apartment felt quite luxurious and modern. Everything was thought of to make our stay comfortable and relaxing. See you again in the warmer months.

Beaches Serviced Apartments 12 Gowrie St was the base for our 12 day stay. We chose Beaches for its amenities and proximity to Little Beach. Pricing was competitive for 4 star accommodation. Changing linen during our 12 day could have bumped lol my score.

Room tip: If you’re elderly or have a young family request a ground floor apartment

Couldn’t reccomend Beaches enough. Perfect location, great apartment, friendly staff and the pool/BBQ is brilliant! My family spent a week here and didn’t want to leave. Amazing for a family holiday. Will definitely be back!!!!!!!!!!!!

No-one at reception on arrival but telephone number on the door was answered promptly and we were given the key box code. It seems a text won't work as we have a UK number. No problem.
Lovely spacious apartment. We had a balcony overlooking the pool, which was never noisy thankfully.
It helps that it's only a small property of 12 units.
The apartment was very well appointed and certainly had everything we needed for a three night stay.
Comfy bed and quiet to sleep.
Internet very stable and had no trouble connecting.
When we first arrived I thought we might be further from points of interest than I had anticipated but it was actually very easy to walk to the Inner Light Tea Rooms, the waterfront and the town. We did take the car when grocery shopping as it would have been a fairly long walk with heavy bags from Woolworths.
We really enjoyed our stay.
