It is the Dutchie Dream
You cannot fault the location of this house. Directly across the road from Dutchies Beach with a beautiful large balcony to sit and admire the views. Accommodation was comfortable and clean. Bedrooms were a little hot with only 1 air con unit in the loungeroom not quite reaching the bedrooms but the beds very comfortable.

Excellent location but tired and poor service.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Excellent location with beautiful views and close to the town centre.Cleaning - it appears the cleaners only change the bedding, clean the bathrooms and do a general tidy, so the cleanliness of the other areas, particularly the kitchen, is dependent on how the previous holiday renters leave it. The initial clean was poor with dead insects on the window sills, kitchen bench and in the kitchen cupboards. There was also cockroach excrement on the kitchen bench and it was littered all throughout the cupboards and drawers. Stay Port Stephens did offer to have the property re-cleaned when we notified them. The BBQ is old - the hot plate falls down and the ignition is not reliable. Overall the house is very tired and could do with kitchen and bathroom renovations. The neighbours are still renovating as per a previous review about this from October/November 2022. While this is not within the control of the owners/Stay Port Stephens, being woken at 6:30am multiple mornings was not pleasant. We felt the expectation to clean the house to a high standard and to put away the dishes before leaving was unreasonable given the cleaning charges. Previous places we have stayed at require a general tidy up and to put the dishwasher on prior to leaving.The $1000 security deposit seems excessive. Honestly - for the price we expected better upkeep and service.
