Absolute Beachfront — The Mona View
We had an amazing time staying at Lucy's beachfront Airbnb! We spent a month there and loved waking up to the stunning sunrise every morning. The apartment was perfect for our family of four, offering everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Lucy was always quick to respond to any questions or concerns. We would absolutely love to return for another beach getaway!

Waterfront house rentals

Modern | Waterfront | Kayaks | Private Jetty
Awesome place! Beautiful greenery around with a great view. The house is huge and I would stay again! Well presented house and would 100% recommend!

Sand Waterfront Lake House Lake Macquarie
We absolutely loved our time at Sand Lakehouse! It is a beautiful place to unwind and watch the water; so much bird activity on and around the lake, it was just wonderful. The house itself is spacious and appointed thoughtfully, and there was nothing we lacked. The fire pit made for a fun night of toasting marshmallows and the local ducks provided much entertainment. The bliss of having a cup of tea on the jetty cannot be overstated! Stephen was a responsive and helpful host, and there's even an IGA within walking distance for anything you've forgotten. A great place to stay; we would highly recommend.

100% Lakeside Living!
The fact that this is our third stay says it all. Thank you for being flexible and for welcoming us back. We had such a lovely break. The water, ducks and swans took us away from city living immediately. We so appreciate our home away from home.

Swansea Lakeside Sunsets - Frangipani 2
Spent the weekend here with my Dad who is visiting from India. The views from the living room were spectacular especially the sunset. The house was well lit and warm with direct sunlight. The neighbourhood was nice and quiet. It was a great change from the busy city life.

Family Home on Lake Macquarie
We stayed in Kate’s place over a weekend to celebrate some significant birthdays with the family ranging in age from 71 to 0. It suited us perfectly! Well equipped for babies through to more elderly. 3 bathrooms, laundry and 5 bedrooms with separate TV room. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets, cosy fireside and fun on the lake at the bottom of the garden. Take board games and books. Location worked very well for us as some travelled from Sydney and some from Newcastle on a Friday evening. Can thoroughly recommend.

Charming Waterfront 3 Bedroom Cottage.
This is a very stylish renovation. The cottage is in an excellent location overlooking the channel at Swansea- always something happening but in a good way. Excellent local facilities coffee shops etc Accessibility to the main highway within a couple of blocks but minimal traffic. The house, verandah and particularly the BBQ area is very well set up with everything you need. We will definitely return when visiting our Newcastle family in the future.

Group Haven - The Lake Haus - Waterfront w POOL
The location is perfect for a short getaway and very suitable for little kids. The house was very clean and has great amenities for kids. Renee is also very proactive with recommendations and the likes. We had a great stay!

Knights Ridge eco-cabin
Knights ridge felt like you were in your own secret valley , surrounded by ancient rock walls . Peaceful and uplifting . A picture out every window . Lots of rain just before our stay so the Creek was flowing and a vibrant green gully Lovely autumn colours . Lots of space and everything you needed for a peaceful break away from city life . The house was rustic and inviting with many collected unique pieces . Lots of space and different places to just be in the moment . Big sunny deck to relax Beautiful warm fire 🔥 that kept the house cosy . We spent 3 magic days there Loved it was off grid and so private . We definitely like to come back one day 💕
Waterfront condo accommodation

Ocean Vista apartment with direct beach access; 11
Great place! Amazing views. Perfect set up for a family of 4. Would definitely come back!

Beachside 3 Bedroom Townhouse Mona Vale Beach
The place was very close to Mona Vale Beach. Not far from the bus to the city or Manly. Close to Mona Vale shops.

Honeysuckle Delight| Heated Pool, Gym, Sauna
The apartment and the amenities are outstanding. We returned here because we had to extend staying away from our house because of renovations. This was our first choice and u cannot recommend it enough. What really does need highlighted is how much of an outstanding history Connie is. She was so understanding, compassionate, super friendly and flexible. She deserves 10 stars.

Beach House Sunset Vista - The Coachhouse Apt. 9
Had a great stay! Loved being right on the beach. Parking was the only pitfall but something out of their control. Great stay and will definitely attempt to stay there again!

"The View" Waterfront Apartment Shoal Bay
This accomodation was outstanding. Great location and the unit was equipped with everything you needed including some thoughtful items like a coffee machine, condiments in the fridge to a variety of tea and coffee selections. Communication was on point with step by step instructions on how to access the unit and Mark was very reactive to emails. The outlook was amazing, listening to the sound of the waves and the sunsets ❤️. I will be back..

Ocean View Oasis - On the beach
First, Cas is extremely easy to communicate with- very timely, flexible & supportive! Thanks so much! Next- the location could not be any better- the absolute best spot on the beaches… everything you need in short flat walk. View is excellent! The balcony is perfect to relax and read a book and still feel connected to the Freshwater community.

Nelson Bay Gem
Perfect location for people wanting a scenic but quiet pet friendly holiday, well situated in a tranquil spot with short distance to all the local tourist spots. Saw dolphins metres from the shore right out front. Doggo loved her morning walks on the dog friendly beach. Neighbours were lovely. Highly recommended

Private Beachfront Apartment Backyard to Beach; 3
What a beautiful apartment! Comfortable beds and pillows, clean, tidy and had everything we could have needed. Even though we visited at a cooler time of the year, we really enjoyed being right on the beach, watching the waves and then retreating back into the cozy, warm apartment. Dan and Robert are very communicative and provided us with so much information to make sure we had an enjoyable and comfortable stay. We were especially grateful for the restaurant recommendations which were super close by with delicious food and friendly staff. We felt right at home, would recommend the Coachhouse beach apartments and would stay again. Thanks for having us!
