  We loved our stay at Beachside Haven. The house was perfect for our family. There was plenty of room to spread out and relax. The kitchen was large and well appointed and we loved the bonus of having 3 bathrooms. The property is very close to the beach (calm and good for little kids) and restaurants / Nelson Bay. Would definately stay again.

  Loris B from Speers Point, NSW recommends this vacation rental

  This is a perfect holiday destination for 1 or 2 families accommodating 10 people comfortably. There is a sofa bed which in the games room/office, & according to the property details, sleeps two small children only. But it's very open to the living/kitchen area which is totally unsuitable for getting small children to sleep.
  The house is very well equipped with good appliances, plenty of crockery, cutlery & glasses. Bedding was comfortable with plenty of linen supplied.
  The location right across the road from Bagnalls Beach was so convenient for the kids to have a swim or for walking the dog. Our dog, a greyhound, had trouble negotiating the polished stairs in the house, so we had to walk him around the side of the house to the back door during the day after a walk, & out that way again to get him down to his bed in the downstais studio.There were concrete stairs to climb, but they weren't slippery like the indoor stairs. Just something to consider if you are taking your doggo on a holiday.
  We had a really comfortable holiday in this property.

  I organised this home away from home for myself and some friends to come and stay at while we visited Nelson Bay, and we were exceptionally pleased with the quality of the home and activities left. Darts and the pool table provided left us with hours of entertainment, at times feeling like we didn't even need to leave.
  
  After our stay, the neighbours next door took their time to thanked us, leaving us with a welcoming feeling if we ever wanted to come back and stay again. Highly recommend, and made my group of friends and my own weekend incredible.

  Stayed here for 10 days in Feb 2024. Its pet friendly, and just a 2 minute walk to a dog friendly beach. 5 minute stroll to a great Thai restaurant and local shops, and a 5 minute drive to Salamander Bay shopping centre or into Nelson Bay. Water views from the balcony, living areas and the master bedroom. The house is very well set out and maintained, and very clean throughout. The kitchen is well equipped and the furnishings are all first class with clean leather lounge both upstairs and downstairs. Everyone I dealt with "Stay Port Stephens" was professional and very helpful from my first enquiry through to our last day of the stay. We will definitely be back and I highly recommend Beachside Haven.

  a guest from Forestville, New South Wales recommends this vacation rental

  The house had a great location, spacious rooms and everything you might need although it did not have a hair dryer. Beautiful view and great balcony to enjoy it. The one issue with the house was its extreme dustiness. You could tell it had been a while since someone had stayed there and it had been a while since someone had actually cleaned and dusted the place. We spent a good day vacuuming, opening windows and getting air circulation flowing. Quite a few spider webs were found behind curtains and in high corners of rooms.

    On behalf of the team at Stay Port Stephens, I would like to thank you for staying with us! The property was cleaned 4 days prior to your arrival.

  We truly enjoyed our stay at Beachside Haven, the house is very large with lots of different spaces to share or retreat to. The rooms are all generously fitted out and the beds are very comfortable. The 4th bedroom is in the lower floor and can be configured as either 2 single beds and a bunk set or a queen and bunk. this room has only one window which faces into the garage/rec room, so is quite dark.

  An awesome beach holiday with friends, loved our stay. Loved the backyard and the outdoor space...only suggestion would be to have aircon in the bedroom downstairs..where the kids slept. It was pretty stuffy and the ceiling fan on a low ceiling is not safe especially for a room with kids.

  Elizabeth A from Panania recommends this vacation rental

  The home is huge! There are four bedrooms, three bathrooms and three living areas but it feels very spacious. The rule for family holidays that the most important thing is time away from each other can be followed here. There was space for the teenagers and room for toddlers. The kitchen is well placed and allows you to be in there but still be a part of the lounge area. Bagnells dogvfriendly beach is across the road and it would have been nice to be able to bring the dog as the back yard is fenced but it is not dog friendly. I was not satisfied with the cleaning in the bathrooms, they were dusty and behind the door was really unclean. I contacted Shane and he organised a cleaner to come out the next day and the bathrooms were spotless. The photos are accurate and the home allowed is to have a lovely holiday together with plenty of space when someone needed some quiet time. The balcony is wonderful for eating and enjoying the view. I would definitely like to come back here.
