Holiday rentals with beach access in Lake Macquarie

Really nice place, close to shops and restaurants

The apartment felt like home , very comfortable & clean. Would recommend the apartment to family & friend's

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

Vivienne’s apartment was absolutely perfect for my needs on a business trip to Newcastle. Vivienne was extremely friendly and left very detailed instructions which left no guesswork to be made upon check in/out. 10/10 for this experience and I will definitely be back for my next visit.

Thank you so much Emmanuelle and family. What a beautiful location to explore. Accomodation was lovely and peaceful. Very quiet location. Loved sitting on the verandah having a cup of tea and watching the birds and hearing the ocean. Beds very comfy, beautiful, relaxing space and enjoyed your dog Coco and cat Hazel coming to check on us. Will definately tell my friends about your place, and am sure, when given the opportunity, we will be back.

Beautiful and central stay in the inner city of Newcastle. Within walking distance of everything you would need. Sarah was friendly, flexible and on top of everything you would need. The apartment was clean and relaxing space to unwind after a long day.

We had a fantastic weekend stay at this lovely cottage! The hosts were incredibly friendly and made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. They really looked after us and made sure everything was just right. The cottage itself was beautiful—very clean, comfortable, and full of charm. We brought our dog along and were so pleased with how welcoming and accommodating the hosts were to our pup. It made the stay feel even more special. The location is perfect—just minutes from the beach, cafes, and great restaurants. It was the ideal spot for a relaxing getaway, and we truly enjoyed every moment. Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a peaceful and pet-friendly escape!

Teresa's place was the perfect destination for a quick getaway. it was clean and tidy, and she was a very responsive, courteous host. We look forward to staying again soon!

Great place to stay for a long weekend!

My mother and I absolutely loved staying here. Inside and out was actually even better than the photos showed. Was a comfortable, tidy, modern, quiet space. Outside with the spa, pool and sauna made us feel like we were in a resort in Bali. Given the chance we will definitely stay again.

Great place. Didn’t get to enjoy the area as was there for work

We just finished a long weekend at Kim's place. It was wonderful. We really enjoyed being close to the beach, very close to shops, children's playgrounds, and a small paddling lagoon. Great place for families with children of all ages, my children are 13, 5 and 2, and we had a blast. We stayed with friends who had an almost 2 year old and it was fantastic. Plenty to do for the older ones and the younger ones. Thank you again.

Incredible spot. We watched the dolphins leaping from the waves and couldn't have asked for more. We'll be back in whale season! Great setup. Highly recommended. Richard and Beck were great hosts. Really responsive and helpful. Avalon town is a great spot too. Lots of good places to eat and get coffee. minor notes: the path down to the rockpools is a little more advanced than anticipated. We turned back with our three year old. if you're napping kids in the middle of the day the blinds don't block much light coming in.

Ziona’s beautiful home was perfect for my little birthday trip with friends. The house was stunning and had mostly everything we needed for our stay! The front door is a bit temperamental but once knowing how it works/ how to do it there is no issues!! Very quite neighbourhood and is perfect for morning or afternoon walks/ runs with the beach also very close. Ziona was extremely helpful throughout our stay with recommendations in regards to food and drinks, aswell as small things we may needed help with: heating the pool, front door, fuze box And was very responsive. Overall our stay was beautiful and would definitely book with her again.

The proprietors, Panassa and Nathan, demonstrate outstanding hospitality. Their property is meticulously maintained, showcasing exceptional cleanliness and beauty. The beds provide supreme comfort, while the pool is spotless. All facilities operate seamlessly, and the location offers effortless accessibility and generous spaces, thank you so much we got the most amazing weekend

Judy and Murray were impeccable hosts. They accommodated our booking at nearly the last minute for a week and communicated immediately. They asked about our preferences for breakfast and were kind enough to pick up a couple items for us ahead of time. Their home was easy to find and we had no problems parking, getting in, or using the space. The cabin has won awards for its design and is extremely cozy. The air/heating worked well, which was great for warm days and cold nights. We did have a small hitch with the WiFi while we were there, but our hosts did everything they could to rectify this issue; most of the problem was due to network upgrades being done in the area. Judy and Murray were amazing hosts, very gracious, incredibly responsive, and had lots of great suggestions for places to go and things to do. I recommend the walk to Crackneck lookout, which was a relatively easy walk (lots of uphill at the end) and a breathtaking view of the ocean!

Perfect for a weekend or even long term getaway. Location was great, right in the heart of the city, 5-mins walk to a couple local pubs, cafes and convenience stores and 15-mins walk to beach and light rail interchange. Also noticed quite a few buses with different bus routes around the area as well. Check in was a breeze and not that I had any issues but Mel was quick to reply once I had advised check in and check out. The place itself was fantastic, ducted air con throughout, 2 very big comfy beds, large lounge area and huge dining area with a kitchen that had what you need to cook for a large group of people, if you wished. Having access to a washing machine and dryer is always a plus, esp. when there’s a 2nd toilet and the bathroom was clean as well. Would definitely look to stay there again if going back up to Newcastle.

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

Absolutely incredible views! I’ve recommend this place to friends and family, very clean and can not fault it at all. Grant was a pleasure to deal with! definitely would book again 🙂

What a pleasure it was to stay in this spacious, comfortable and well equipped home. Emily provides everything you need right down to umbrellas. The beautiful views over Whale Beach added a fabulous touch to this perfect airbnb. Emily and David were quick to respond, always helpful, and throughout my 10 day stay ensured that I was comfortable and had everything I needed. I would highly recommend staying here if you are in the Northern Beaches.

Definitely recommend staying here, we will be rebooking in the future

10 stars! The longer you stay in Keran’s studio (and Newcastle) the longer you will want to stay. As frequent airbnb’ers we SO appreciate the considerate built-in storage spaces, HOOKS (!), all the kitchen supplies needed to cook meals, etc.! Keran spoiled us: cheeses, fruit, butter, gluten free crackers (she asked about dietary requirements!), OJ and more. Any anxiety about lack of outdoor space was quelled by a cute cozy basement style patio and the fact that Newcastle Beach and its shaded chill spaces is only a few minutes’ walk away. I have to mention the bathroom which had the most sophisticated lighting I have seen. Plus a great shower, just bring your shampoo. Public transport is nearby but we were happy to have a car to explore and traffic was a non-issue. Smaller car is best. Restaurants in walking distance as well as ocean pools (a must!). Best grocery stores by car. We met Keran who was great about checking in w/us and suggestions. She lives above in this historic complex.

Extremely cozy and a great area!

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