Great two bedroom apartment overlooking beach
This property is perfectly located overlooking Dutchman's beach, a stones throw from the ocean and reasonably priced. It’s located in a quiet area with a full kitchen and two bedrooms with a door to separate the lounge. My kids enjoyed being able to duck down to the beach with ease and I really enjoyed watching the sunsets and enjoying the birdlife. My only suggestion would be to provide towels and there was a little bit of mould on one of the blinds that triggered my lungs but otherwise a fantastic property that I will stay at again if we go back to Nelson Bay.

Nice stay
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, lovely view & convenient access to a great child friendly beach. Only a three drive to the Main Street. The unit was clean although I had to pop out to buy pillows and blankets as the pillows were heavily stained and the quilts had an odd smell & needed a wash.

Beautiful stay
We had such a wonderful stay! The apartment was so well equipped and the view was sensational. We loved the quick access to dutchies and we spent every day at the beach! It was quite hot in the apartment with only fans as we had 30 degree days and our kids did struggle a bit with the heat as we are from a cool climate. We had such a wonderful stay and would definitely return! Just to note the main garbage bins weren’t emptied on the Monday and the smell was very strong near the stairs. Thanks for a lovely stay!
