Top West Nelson Bay Hotel Reviews

The Landmark Resort Nelson Bay

10/10 Excellent

"Great position easy to get a park nice rooms"

Oaks Port Stephens Pacific Blue Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean, great kitchen and dining. Well set out rooms. Appliances work well. Great water pressure in the shower."

Ramada Resort by Wyndham Shoal Bay

10/10 Excellent

"X"

Mantra Nelson Bay

10/10 Excellent

"We loved staying here -- it has lots of room for a family of four and my son didn't want to leave! Located in the town center of Nelson Bay, it is also only a few minutes' walk to Woolworths and the other shops. Our apartment was nice and clean and had a good ambience. Furniture had a little wear and tear, but it was acceptable. Rooms were of a good size and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen was very large and had everything we needed. We had a laundry and an ensuite which was very nice. Check-in was easy and the staff were friendly and helpful. A couple of downsides: the wifi was very slow and in fact failed one evening and the wifi network seemed to drop out of existence! Secondly, because it's a pool view apartment, we got a bit of noise from the activity in the pool - these are both minor complaints though as the pool is closed before it gets too late and we have our mobile phones for internet anyway. Overall, it was a great place to stay and we will stay here again next time we're in Nelson Bay. I can recommend it."

Peninsula Nelson Bay Motel and Serviced Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved our stay! The reception staff was helpful and just lovely, bringing towels to my kids when she heard they were in the pool. The apartment we stayed in was the 3-bedroom apartment. It was quite dated, however clean, and there was everything we needed, really. Great positon to go for walks to various beaches that surround the area and close to Nelson Bay."

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: Lovely accommodation and great for families. We really enjoyed the heated pool, and the toys and games provided for the kids were a great touch.Communication could be improved. I had sent a question via SMS and also through Stayz but didn’t receive a response, so I ended up having to call to get in touch.Aside from that, we had a lovely stay and would happily come and stay again."
