Merewether Getaway

We couldn't have asked for more in the Merewether Beach House. The location was perfect, with Merewether Beach at the end of the street. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable and exactly as advertised. The kitchen was well equipped with good quality items. The property manager was personable and extremely accommodating, which was much appreciated. Highly recommend this property.

Great Spacious House in perfect location

Wonderfully equipped generously proportioned modern house. Great weekend away with five mature ladies- enough space for everyone and three bathrooms was an added bonus. Comfortable lounges and massive dining table were great.

Stunning house and perfect location

The property was even more beautiful than the pictures, with elegant interiors, spacious rooms, and every amenity we could have wished for. The location was perfect—one block from the beach! Communication with the property manager was seamless and timely; they were always available to answer any questions and provided clear instructions for check-in and check-out. The attention to detail in both the home and the service made our experience truly memorable. We can't wait to return.

Beautiful beach house

The property was better than we could expect from photos, it was spacious for a family of adults weekend with lots at entertaining areas. Sunny spots for relaxing. We were able to have lots of family time without being cramped in. We enjoyed the beach walks everyday as the beach was at the end of the street and the location of the house itself was very convenient to coffee shops eateries and shopping in Darby street. Highly recommend 😀

Beach Retreat Merewether

Agent very accomodating. Able to check in earlier as one of the guest was already in Newcastle. Large house with all the necessities. 2 min walk to the beach front. Ocean views from the main bedroom and front door. Surf club house walking distance, where you can have breakfast lunch and dinner. Would be a great house for multiple family get away.

Fantastic Merewether

Absolutely beautiful! The home was excellent-could not fault it! 3 lounge rooms with big screen TVs, free WiFi, 3 beautiful bathrooms, even boogie boards. It was very clean and so comfortable..we didn’t want to come home! But the best thing was it’s proximity to the beach and the 5 minute drive to the fantastic shops at The Junction and the wonderful restaurants and pubs! We are all thinking of staying there again…loved it!

Location Location Location

Immaculate property chosen for its location as we were attending a family wedding reception at he Merewether Surfhouse and this was a short stroll home. Heaps of space. We only needed 3 bedrooms but this house had a rare 4. Off street parking for our 3 cars. Different sitting areas would allow people to separate and come together when needed within the house. Excellent choice.

Perfect location

Perfect location and beautifully styled home. Superficially clean, but floor needed a good wet mop… no insect spray to spray cockroaches and cutlery/ crockery needed to be washed. Back step outside is possible health and safety issue. Lots of trouble unlocking front door so used garage instead. Red bin was full to the brim on arrival and too heavy to move. Previous tenants didn’t bother separating recycling from other garbage. A neighbour had said that some break in attempts had occurred in the street. It may have been an idea to let us know to be aware of this.
