About this property
A ground floor unit, close to town
The Location -
Portside is right in town, only a 350 metre walk to Nelson Bay's boutique shops, cafes and restaurants and 500 metres to the marina and Nelson Bay Beach. There is also a pool in the complex (open for the Summer season October to April however no refunds if closed by Strata for water testing or any other reasons).
The Unit - This unit is on the ground floor, with a grassed area out the front and filtered water views. There is an open plan living and dining area with a flat screen TV, DVD player and a CD player and a full kitchen with a cook-top, oven, microwave and a full fridge. Two bedrooms (queen bed and a tri bunk), one bathroom with a shower and a bath and an internal laundry with a washer and a dryer. Plus two undercover secure car spaces (steps from the garage to the unit).
There are smoke alarms at this property.
Linen is provided at this property. If you would like bed made please contact the office.
Portside Building is not compatible for any onsite EV charging facilities due to insufficient Electrial Capacity therefore no EV charging is allowed onsite.

We want you to fully enjoy your time away, and we also ask that guests help us look after the home and the surrounding community. To keep things comfortable for everyone:
- This is a no-party property
- Quiet hours are between 9pm - 8am (as per council regulations)
These guidelines help ensure Port Stephens Accommodation homes stay available for future escapes (yours included) and that local neighbours remain welcoming to visitors."

Great location!
Location was great, close to the marina, grocery shopping, and the beach.
The apartment did welcome us with a strong smell of cleaning chemicals upon entering on the first day, no biggie though.
There was hair on the couches which we could have done without.
Loved the 2 car spots as well as the view from the porch. Would definitely stay again, if someone poisons the trees outside the bedrooms so those annoying loud magpies disappear and don't wake me every single morning.
