Top Shoal Bay Hotel Reviews

Mantra Nelson Bay

Mantra Nelson Bay

8/10 Good
"We were given a lovely spacious two bedded apartment even though it was just my husband and myself staying there. The large balcony overlooked the pool as requested but it could be noisy at times. Each apartment had an allocated parking space which was a big plus. The complex is an easy 10 minute walk to the centre of Nelson Bay (a very pleasant resort). All in all we were very pleased with our stay. "
