Stunning water views

Once you navigate the steep driveway and 2 flights of stairs, the effort is well worth it. Fabulous views were amazing and my friends and I had a great time sitting out on the deck watching the sunrise and sunsets, and a short stroll to the beach. Would definitely come back again...

Relaxing

We had a great stay. Lovely view. Great deck space. Bright feel inside from the living and kitchen areas. Easy walk to local shops & takeaway food. Ducted air-conditioning made it very comfortable through the whole house, as it was hot outside. We would stay again.

Venue was light and airy with beautiful 270 degree + vistas of Salamander Bay. Close to shops and supermarkets. Close to a range of beautiful sandy beaches. Lovely weather, warm days and cool nights. Wife and I enjoyed a fun filled mini holiday.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Had a wonderful time at Wanda Point House. Very comfortable with everything we needed. Views were spectacular. Loved sitting out on the deck taking in the views. And waking up in the morning with the views from the bedroom was an added bonus. Access to dog friendly beach was brilliant for our border collie. Driveway was a challenge to get car up, but we opted to park on road and walk up, so wasn'ta problem. Plus it was great exercise. And well worth it with the views that we had.

Lovely house

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed in the house for a few days, the location was excellent and the views are great. Saw daily dolphins in the bay which was a bonus. The driveway is very steep but not a problem to drive or walk up.The property has everything needed for an enjoyable stay and is in easy reach to great beaches.The only slight negative was a bit more attention to detail in the cleaning of the property, this didn’t have a major impact but a little more care can make all the difference.

Great spot to base yourself from and explore Port Stephens

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: We loved our short stay , great spot and the house was clean and exactly as detailed. We would happily stay again. It would have been nice to have been warned about the alarm in the arrival text (not just the e-mail which was somewhere in my full in box) but I'm just being picky, no harm was done and we were prepared for the steep drive from reading other reviews (not for the faint hearted in the dark and wet).

Dreams place

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lovely place for a vacation. The house itself was so beautiful and well organised. Very spacious inside with beautiful decorations. The only drawback for us the oldies was the driveway situation and the 30steps stairs. Very hard to drive up and also the TV keeps stopping because of the internet or the WIFI connections. It keeps losing connections all the time. Needs to be fixed. Apart from that everything was perfect.

the premises was great - it met our expectation - the premises was well presented, comfortable and the balcony was one of the best features of the house. our dog loved the backyard a new place to explore. we all enjoyed our stay - however the steep driveway damaged the front of our car. we left car on the road as not to damage the car more.

Beautiful home with amazing views

The house is fantastic. Really impressive. The deck is amazing. Great amenities. 5mins walk to the village. 3 mins walk to the beach. We would definitely stay again. In fact we extended by one night. The driveway is very steep and there are a lot of stairs to access the property but the listing does mention this and we were fine with it. May not be so suitable for people who struggle with stairs or steep gradients.

winter waterside getaway

The house was a good size, and in a good location . Some of the door locks did not seem to work well, and some of the light bulbs needed replacing. The internet also was not working, but we managed ok ,by using our phones to hotspot. The driveway is quite steep and the flights of stairs might be challenging for any with mobility issues though not for the able bodied. The house is close to some handy local shops, and a short drive to lots of local sights. The view from the house is lovely, and having the scenery and local wildlife in view is nice.
