With tempting views of the beach from the front veranda, its super versatile floor plan makes it ideal for large families, intragenerational families or two families to share for a good old fashioned beach holiday. The home is also only 10 mins drive to Nelson Bay. Fingal Bay Beach House is located at the southern end of the beach, affectionately referred to as Kiddie’s Corner. This protected stretch of the beach is perfect for children as it’s sheltered from big waves and typically has the type of small rolling waves that kids can spend hours enjoying. Waves just right for learning to surf or bodyboard, standup paddle boarding, kayaking and snorkelling. The beach is often patrolled by Surf Life Savers who set up flags indicating the best place to swim. There’s an amenities block, and BBQs and picnic tables are scattered along the grassy reserve adjacent to the beach. Bring the kids’ bikes and scooters or simply wander north along the pathway, that runs parallel with the beach, in only a few hundred meters you’ll discover a wonderful children’s playground and the Surf Life Saving Club’s cafe and restaurant. At low tide you can venture over the Fingal Spit and spend time exploring Fingal Island and see the light house. Fingal Bay Beach House consists of two separate cottages, which are only meters apart and have an undercover deck between them. Right Side Cottage - Sleeps 2, it consists of one bedroom with a queen bed, an open plan dining room, lounge room and fully equipped kitchen, a bathroom and a lovely sunny, north facing, wrap around veranda.

Reviewer Comments: Loved Fingal Bay, property was well positioned just back from the beach & well priced. Loved the separate dwellings that allowed us some time away from the kids :-) The only negative was that the fry pans probably are past their use by date and need replacing (think I recall seeing that in another guest's comments before our stay).

It was clean and tidy on our arrival, also well equipped for our holiday. It was setup (pet-friendly wise) for our travelling dog. Livingroom A/C not functioning properly. Was repaired promptly by office management. Late checkout would have been good but the late fee was over the top. We exited before 10am. We would stay there again as beach access was spot-on. ##### David M.

The property is in a fabulous location only 50m from the sand, and the booking / check-in was very smooth. Unfortunately we were not satisfied with the cleanliness and maintenance of the property (blocked overflowing gutters in the covered sitting area, BBQ could not be made to work, water leaked into the laundry area and we observed 3-4 cockroaches during our stay). Nothing some more diligent pest control and maintenance couldn't address so hope it is fixed for future guests as really is a lovely spot. ##### Paul O. Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Julian B. 22 May 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Cleaning concerns, shower leaking. Great location and proximity to beach. Loved the property layout for two families with the additional outdoor kitchen which was such a hit with our family. Unfortunately the premises had some serious concerns. Cleaning was a horror story which we observed on day one when my daughter’s dust allergy immediately kicked into overdrive. I have never experienced a situation quite like it. Beneath the beds was a thick layer of dust (not exaggerating) which points to the cleaning team and lack of inspection by the management team. I must acknowledge the responsiveness of the office who assisted with getting in first one cleaner who did half a job and then another cleaner who did a great job. The shower in the studio had a leak which flooded the floor and in the end we couldn’t use it. Once they get the cleaning and some repairs done the premises will offer a lovely stay. The office offered a late checkout as a result of the cleaning issues which we were unable to take advantage of due to prior arrangements. ##### Julian B.

The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is our 2nd time at Fingal bay beach house over the New Year period and it was amazing with both our elderly mothers who occupied the studio and my husband and I occupied the main house, we spent majority of our mornings and afternoons either out in the breezeway or on the front deck watching the beautiful waves roll in. This has to be one of the best holiday rentals we have stayed in at Port Stephens for functionality and position, close to the water for that amazing beach walk, places to eat, grab a cold afternoon beverage or just a quick drive into shoal bay for some of the most beautiful Greek food at Atmos with a sneaky gelato at the jetty gelato. Highly recommend booking this place won’t disappoint. I have given a 3 star for cleanliness due to our arrival of having to clean under the dinning table/lounge with food still visible and clean the toilet from previous tenants that had been missed by cleaners but it was the only downfall of our holiday. ##### A guest from Chisholm, New South Wales This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### Nomin Erdene S. 5 Jan 2023 #### Fingal Bay beach house stay Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: House location is great. But cleaning was bad. House was very dusty. I have even found spider webs behind the sofa and under the bed. Floor wasn’t clean so wanted to vacuum it but the vacuum cleaner wasn’t working. There weren’t proper cleaning tools like broom and tray. And the company deducted 100$ from my bond money. Why is that? We cleaned place best as we can. There wasn’t any cleaning materials like cloths and chemicals. But we cleaned kitchen and barbecue area well. There is no way to clean floor. Vacuum is not working. And we were guests not cleaners. Booking fee should be included cleaning fee too. ##### Nomin Erdene S. ### 8/10 Good #### Jennifer B. 22 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous location, sunny verandah and pet friendly!
