Great location

This property had everything we needed for our stay. It was well appointed and had a peaceful outlook over a park. Having two living areas gave everyone a place to relax. The verandah was a great place for afternoon drinks. It was just a short walk to several beautiful beaches, cafes and restaurants.

A nice house ...

We had a very pleasant stay at Wreck Beach House although only occupying the top floor as there was only the two of us. The house is very comfortable and well located.

relaxing, quiet, easy

We enjoyed our stay at Shoal Bay very much. The area is just beautiful. Our host Michelle and Sam were very helpful in the lead up to the trip and checking in and getting keys was easy. The house is a great little beach house and well appointed with separate accommodation upstairs and downstairs. Would recommend the place.

Beautiful prooerty

We could not fault this lovely home. It had everything we needed and beautifully presented. The addition of the separate accommodation downstairs was such a bonus and very private. Great location and in walking distance to Shoal Bay. The owner was so helpful. Would not hesitate in rebooking.

Fantastic weekend getaway

Excellent place to stay, with everything you could need. Felt so fresh and new. Sitting on the balcony looking at the birds in the park was v relaxing. Outdoor staircase between the 2 levels might not be for everyone but we were fine with it.

Family week away

Lovely property for our family week away in Nelson bay. Short walking distance to shops and dining options as well as some beautiful beaches. Kids loved movie night downstairs so we could stay in the leaving room upstairs. Michelle was very helpful providing local information. Love the shower outside!

Absolutely perfect for our Women’s Retreat

This house was ideal for my recent retreat with four clients! The bedrooms were very comfortable and beautifully presented, as was the rest of the house. It was really perfect! And having the house so close to Wreck Beach made for a fabulous afternoon walk! Michelle was an incredible host - very prompt with enquires, the check in process was seamless. Would definately recommend!

Excellent Shaol Bay location

Had a great stay at the property with some of my school mum friends. Clean property, fab location, it was super easy to relax and sit in the balcony in the sun. I wouldn’t recommend for some family groups as there are two seperate properties. I assumed there would be internal stairs connecting the two properties but they had two separate front doors. Great for families with older kids. Overall, we had a great stay and would defo come back. Thank you Michelle, you made the whole process super easy

Family birthday weekend, me and my children and spouses

The cottage is just lovely, facing onto the park and beautifully presented. Totally comfortable and perfect for our group of 7 adults. Kitchens and bathrooms. Heating great as we were there in June long weekend, bedding all perfect. Supplies for immediate occupation provided in pantry and also in bathrooms. Very close to drive or walk to beach in 7 minutes. We loved it and will be back. Thanks Michelle, fond regards from Susanne Y and family.

Perfect beach hideaway

We had a wonderful week away at this beach hideaway. The house was very stylishly presented and great positioning right on a park which was great for the kids. Short walk to town and a nice (but steep) bush walk to the closest surf beaches (wear sneakers). The sound system was great to have music playing when home, and a great selection of games for the family to play. Very clear and efficient communication with Michelle. We only used the upstairs of the house which had a queen room and a bunk room which the kids loved. Very easy to have another family stay in the 3 bedrooms downstairs with own bathroom and kitchen. Loved this place!

Our quick family getaway

As soon as we discovered this listing, we knew it was where we wanted to stay. The communication from Michelle was fantastic. She provided all the required information and more! The house is configured as 2 separate units, and we only stayed in the upstairs unit. The main kitchen is well stocked with plates, glasses, cutlery, pots and pans, you name it. There is also plenty of coffee, oils, herbs and spices, as well as other condiments available. Then there is also decent internet (the 4g mobile in the area on the other hand we found to be pretty poor), along with Netflix and other streaming services. Situated next to a nice quiet, well shaded park provided excellent outdoors escape for our 5 year old. Especially given it was over 30C every day we were there. We had no issue with the 2 BBQs but did fumble a bit with the gas hotplate in the main kitchen. The driveway would easily fit 3 smaller cars. Larger cars are a bit of a tight fit getting down close to the house. Although town is probably only a 15minute walk, we didn't do the trek due to the heat. However, being a long weekend parking was difficult, and probably took longer to find a park than it would have been walking there. Would happily stay here again, and it would be perfect for 2 families.
