Beachfront holiday rental in Hunter Region

Perfect for walking to everything in the local area, the beach, restaurants, clubs and bars along the strip where basically at your front door yet you are still private enough for it to be very restful when needed. Lovely little find and an extra bonus for our cute daily visits from the resident dog. Thanks for hosting.

Elizabeth’s loft is just perfect - and she is a wonderful and really helpful host. The space is super clean and comfortable and it has everything you might need, including a well-equipped kitchen and a work desk if you’re in town for business. The location is simply superb being so close to the beach, the best ocean baths ever, great coffee, yoga (at the surf club a short walk away) and the list goes on. Loved my stay!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! From the moment I arrived, the host was incredibly welcoming and made sure I had everything I needed. They went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable, offering great recommendations for local spots and checking in to make sure all was well. The property itself was stunning! It was beautifully decorated, clean, and had all the amenities I could have asked for. The space was both cosy and stylish, with plenty of room to relax and unwind. It truly felt like a home away from home. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with a fantastic host and a lovely property. Will definitely return!

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

This is the second time we’ve visited Paul’s place and hopefully they’ll be another. It’s a quintessential Australian coast house, full of character and warmth. The beach is across the road and you fall asleep with the sound of the ocean. Heaven! Great back yard, everything you need and Paul is a 10 out of 10 host!

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 🍻

Had a great stay, the guest house was nice and larger than expected.

Stunning views of the beautiful beach and there is a great coffee shop on the same street. The apartment has everything needed for a holiday with family and is very neat and tidy. The fruit and cheese platter on our arrival was so lovely and unexpected. We will be returning!

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

We just spent two wonderful days at a meticulously organized and exceptionally clean Airbnb. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that attention to detail was a priority. The space was not only spotless but also thoughtfully decorated, making it feel warm and inviting. The host was incredibly responsive and accommodating. Our stay was comfortable and hassle-free, making it the perfect getaway. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful and tidy retreat!

We just LOVED this place. cosy, beautifully presented- with everything you could possibly need to make your stay comfortable. The only bad thing about this home was that we couldn't stay longer. We would love to come stay again in the future, if Gwendoline would have us. Thanks so much- the De Caux family 🙏 ❤️✨️

Adrian’s place was so homely and comfortable. The beds were so soft and we didn’t want to leave that lounge! We had just the right amount of space for 4 adults and 2 kids. Adrian was very generous and thoughtful. Even leaving ice blocks in the freezer for the kids! The pool and games room was a hit with the kids. Great for the couple of rainy days we got during our stay. This was probably the most comfortable air b n b experience we’ve had. Everything ran smoothly thanks to a great host.

beautiful home and such great hosts. amazing location. the best we coumd ask for . thank you tom and lindy.

John and Kylie are the most incredible hosts. Their home is a true hidden gem. The location is ideal, in our opinion! Walk to beaches, a cafe down the road, quick drive(less than 5min) to 2 good size grocery stores and kmart! John is unbelievably quick to help if you have any questions at all and offered so much valuable information for the area and even a little history too: ) The kitchen is my personal favorite part. The windows are anyones dream to wash dishes and prepare a great meal. Absolutely everything you could need is there, even take a way containers if you are running late and need to pack a quick sandwich for a child because they would not get out of the pool to eat beforehand : ) Really good internet, comfortable beds, incredible pool...what else could anyone possibly want? Wonderful home and amazing hosts! We will dream of coming again one day!!

What an amazing place to stay, just what we needed and would happily stay here again when we visit family again in Port Macquarie. Great views and close to all the brilliant places that the area has to offer. Spacious apartment with a big living and dining area and comfortable beds. There’s even a great little pub with friendly staff, great locals and delicious food right next door which was a great surprise.

Such a fabulous house and location. We had a beautiful stay and Vanessa was so helpful and communicative. Such a peaceful and well designed home which is well equipped. Highly recommend 💫

Beautiful location, amazing place to stay. Would highly recommend and be more than happy to book again.

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.

Beautiful stay, in a warming one bedroom apartment, kitchen had everything we could want Couch and bed were extremely comfortable and clean

A beautifully appointed apartment with top quality amenities. The view is beautiful and location walkable to the beach, cafes and restaurants. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at Karen’s place! The guesthouse was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. Karen was a kind and thoughtful host - responsive, welcoming, and respectful of our privacy. We truly appreciated the peaceful atmosphere and little touches that made us feel at home. Highly recommended!

Perce is the ultimate gentleman. Great communication, very kindhearted, always responsive and wants nothing more than to share his knowledge and have his guests enjoy their stay. I felt very grateful that I stayed with him. The location is across the road from an incredible beach and bay. Has everything I needed and best of all a friendly, knowledgeable local who is more than happy to help. Will definitely be back. Thanks again Perce!

We loved the Bond House apartment. Despite the unusual access across the park it was well worth it once inside. Eclectic stylishly furnished spacious apartment well located for East Newcastle. A well stocked larder and great laundry space if you need it. Bathrooms very modern with heated towel rails and big fluffy towels! Beds very comfy too
