Five stay location

I really enjoyed the location of this property and how close to the beach it is. It was only a 5mins drive to the centre and all the shopping and eating opportunities. The outdoor courtyard was very private and nice to sit in and enjoy to beach air. Definitely planning on visiting again

Tranquil Coastal Escape!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sandbar and we left feeling so refreshed and relaxed after just 4 days. It is ideally located with just a short walk to the beaches, the accommodation is spacious and well appointed, and the lounge and the beds were super comfortable! We can't wait to come back and stay.

comfort and convenience

We had a lovely stay. The property was neat and practical, there were plenty of walking tracks to explore with the dogs, and we were only a block from the beach. Wests club and Nelson Bay town centre are only minutes away. We found everything we needed to make our stay pleasant and comfortable.

Perfect little spot!

We loved our stay here! The property was clean, comfortable and just right for an easy stay with our two small dogs. It’s a short walk to the beach or to Little Bay- we discovered lots of picturesque walks just exploring and can’t wait to come back. A 5 minute drive to Nelson Bay meant easy access to the amenities also. Great communication with the owner and ease of check-in too. Our dogs loved their holiday and we had no issues during our stay.

Perfect dog friendly stay!

Annie’s place was everything we needed for a weekend getaway. The house was well equipped and close to everything. The outdoor dining area was a great addition and the dogs had plenty of space to run around in the fully secured yard. Annie checked in from time to time and was very responsive to messages. Highly recommend this affordable accomodation in Nelson Bay.

Happy holiday

I loved the ease and convenience of a ground floor villa. The courtyard added to the private vibe and was relaxing. Plenty of tea/ offer and Brekky/ ondents extras in the kitchen cupboard was a welcome addition.
