Hi Stewart,
We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at Ocean View Anna Bay. It is definitely a great location, so close to Birubi Beach and local attractions. Thanks for your great review. Warm regards, McGrath Port Stephens

Hi David,
We are glad to hear you enjoyed your Easter Getaway stay at Ocean View Anna Bay. It is a great holiday property conveniently located close to Birubi Beach as well as other activities in the surrounding area.
The house has great set up and appliances in the kitchen. Bathrooms and toilets were clean and well presented. We did find “general “ cleaning of floors and tv areas were not clean. We washed the upstairs floors on the first day. Also, the house alarm went off when we entered the house. We weren’t aware the alarm system was on.

Thank you Paul for taking the time to leave a review. We sincerely apologise that the general cleaning, particularly the floors and living areas, did not meet our usual standards. This has been addressed with our cleaning team to prevent a recurrence. We also apologise for the alarm sounding on arrival. While check-in instructions, including alarm details, are provided prior to arrival, we will review how this information is communicated to ensure greater clarity.
We appreciate your kind comments regarding the kitchen and bathrooms and thank you for helping us with improving guest experience. We look forward to welcoming you back. Thanks, McGrath Port Stephens
We had a great stay here and will be back. It’s conveniently located close to walking paths that take you around the headland to the patrolled Birubi Beach and Crest Cafe. Although the property doesn’t have air conditioning we just opened all the windows and put all the fans on which made it comfortable enough. Thanks for having us, we’ll be back.

Great location but the property needs updating. The key collection and handover is inconvenient as it’s 15min away from the property. Linen needs updating as well as mattresses. TV antenna was old school which was frustrating. The house was clean.
Thank you Lisa for such a wonderful review. We are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay. We look forward to welcoming you back again. Thanks, McGrath Port Stephens

Great location but the house is outdated
Location was great only a few minutes walk to the beach. The house itself is very outdated. Beds are old and not comfortable, TV didn’t work well and no there is no dryer making it a little hard when traveling with young kids.
Lovely home, Spacious, Ideal for 2 couples and kids.
No air-conditioning.
When booking price did not mention linen would be extra expence. So add an extra $115.00 or so if you don't want to bring your own.
The house was in a very good location and walking distance to the beach. We were able to view the ocean from our balcony. We had an awesome experience, thank you! I would definitely come back.
Could see the whales swim in the distance. A bit obstructed by the other house. Homely. Could do with an air con. We had to clean the shower heads so we could get a spray. Had to clean the bbq. Very rusty. But overall good.
Only a 50-metre walk to the waters edge where you have swimming pockets, rock fishing, diving and snorkelling, or if you are feeling more active the National Park trail is a fantastic walk along the coastline, this is located right at your fingertips.
Anna Bay shops, restaurants, IGA supermarket, bakeries, newsagency, post office, chemist, doctors surgery, butcher, tavern with a bistro, bottle shop and service station are all only a 2-minute drive away and the famous sand dunes and Birubi Beach are only a quick 3-minute drive.
