Sunny modern riverside cottage 2
Maurie’s place is so beautiful! Had an amazing time and the location/house is perfect! Would highly recommend and will definitely be back!

Karen's Place - Rainforest Retreat
Phil’s place was lovely. The space was great for us - 7 friends getting away for the weekend. Kitchen is great, outside area is great and bedrooms and bathroom are comfy. The location is very peaceful but close to Smiths Lake and the pub. We would happily stay again.

Inala Wilderness Retreat
Great cabin located inside the Eaglereach Wilderness retreat. This particular cabin was nice and private, tucked away from the other houses. It had everything we needed for a comfy stay, and enough games to keep our kids entertained on a VERY rainy day! The facilities in the complex are great too: pool, outdoor gym, playground, small dam (for paddling), tennis court and rec room with pool table and ping pong table. A great holiday spot, all within east reach of Sunday. Sensational views too!

Hunter Hideaway Farm Cozy Cabin for 2 with hot tub
We had a really really great stay, the farm was gorgeous and the cabin was super comfy and clean. The outdoor jacuzzi lovely and Vickie and Roger were super responsive and friendly. Overall, we would absolutely recommend! Thanks again :)

Gumnut Grove The Vintage
We had a wonderful family vacation at Susan’s place! Her house was incredibly cozy and had all the amenities we needed for a comfortable stay. Susan was also very accommodating and responsive to all our needs, which made the experience even better. Highly recommended! DJDVE

1OAK @ The Vintage - Outdoor Spa & Lovely Views
Very comfortable home in a lovely quiet and secure area. Very happy with our stay and would be keen to rebook another time .

Beautiful sunny garden retreat in Kotara
We absolutely loved staying at Armando's place and felt very much at home! Each room met our needs perfectly, and the gardens were so lovely! It was great to see the many accessible features that were very tastefully done also. a great place to stay!

Waterlily Clarendon Forest Retreat
It was good place

ABSOLUTE beachfront One Mile Beach
House was very spacious and comfortable, right next to the beach was only about a couple seconds walk, perfect for spending the whole day there! Perfect walking distance from the shops as well

"Robyn's Nest Hideaway" - a quiet getaway
spacious, clean and very well-equipped accommodation. our stay was really enjoyable. Roger and his wife are very hospitable. good anchorage to browse Port Stephens. great value for the money. we recommend.

CBD quirky main street central loft
This listing was spacious, comfortable and had everything you need for a great weekend in the Hunter valley. Easy, secure parking and two great decks to enjoy

Tranquil, green and close to two beautiful beaches
Was clean well equipped and catered to accomodate the whole family. Dog friendly. The family preference was if the bbq was in the upstairs balcony, would have been great especially with mozzies around. Very happy and enjoyed the weekend. Felt at home.

"Serendipity" waterside retreat at Manning Point
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! From the moment I arrived, the host was incredibly welcoming and made sure I had everything I needed. They went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable, offering great recommendations for local spots and checking in to make sure all was well. The property itself was stunning! It was beautifully decorated, clean, and had all the amenities I could have asked for. The space was both cosy and stylish, with plenty of room to relax and unwind. It truly felt like a home away from home. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with a fantastic host and a lovely property. Will definitely return!

Habitat at Newcastle Beach
We live in the area and just needed a place to crash while we had some work done at home. The house is beautiful and airy and instructions were crystal clear. We loved having a little staycation in the best suburb in Newy!

Driftwood Beach Cottage Harrington
We had a fantastic weekend in Harrington with our pup Xola. The house was really comfortable, well thought out, and had everything we needed. It felt welcoming from the moment we arrived. There was plenty of space to park two cars and a boat, which made things super convenient. The area was peaceful, with beautiful birdlife that added to the relaxed vibe. The amenities were more than expected. We really appreciated was the wireless vacuum—it made keeping the beach house tidy really easy. Joel and Naomi were excellent hosts with great communication. We’d happily come back again.

Beach House on Windmill - family and pet friendly
Central location and good size place with nice back deck that catches afternoon breeze. Street was busier than I expected for a cul de sac and couldn’t always park out the front due to cars. My dual cab Ute (1950mm high) didn’t fit in the garage and didn’t really fit under the tree in the driveway. Other than that it’s a great place for a family holiday.

Josies Studio
We had the loveliest weekend staying at Terry’s place. It was exactly as described and had everything we needed. Graham, you are such a lovely, accommodating person and we feel so fortunate to have stayed at your place. You made us feel like we were looked after and cared for. We are so grateful for your kindness. The green tree frog in the bathroom was so exciting for two Sydney people! Thanks again!

Wirral Grange Cottage - 3 bed house
We loved Carol and Terry’s place! It fit 7 of us adults comfortably. We loved the hot tub too for relaxation and being in amongst the grape vines was idyllic and peaceful. The breakfast supplies were amazing and very appreciated and the property’s wine was delicious! We will definitely be back, thank you!

John Hunter Hospital: 5 Minutes
Stewart's place is a pet friendly stay ideally situated 5 minutes away from the John Hunter Hospital. The accommodation was spacious & comfortable with a leafy outlook. Steward is a friendly host & our stay was perfect for what we needed.

Isla Villa Beach House - Shoal Bay
Fantastic property with thoughtful hosts; a wonderful choice for families and kids of all ages. Well maintained amenities and attention to detail made our stay with extended family a delight. The heated pool was a hit - even when it rained - and it was easy to get in and out safely for both the toddler and senior in our group. The wood fire pizza oven is definitely worth cranking for dinner or just to hang in the mini-amphitheatre. The playhouse, car and trampoline kept our little one very entertained. Every room was immaculate and beautifully designed. We were even treated to some local produce courtesy of our host - thanks Lauren! A magical location and very peaceful. Just 10 minutes walk to town and if you’re up for exploring, follow the ‘secret’ track to Wreck beach via the bushland at the rear of the garden. Highly recommend.

View House, country views, peaceful, relaxing
Beautiful places at a beautiful location not too far out of the town. Clean and spacious. My group had a relaxed stay here and will come back again.

Fantail Villa at Woodlane Cottages Lovedale
Great New Years experience. The cottage was in a private area, but still close to different sites like the Hunter Valley Gardens, it was a great getaway from the city!!

Private granny flat
Tania is a great host. We found the accomodation private and very peaceful. The car park is secure. We didn’t face any issues during our stay. Tania was super responsive and we extremely like the stay.

Pueblo at Indigal - Relax Rejuvenate Reconnect
We enjoyed four beautiful days at Elizabeth's place. It is a peaceful oasis away from the hustle and bustle of Forster and Tuncurry, although only a short drive to both towns. There is a local convenience store if you don't fancy a drive, and eating places are close by. Close by are several beautiful beaches. The accommodation has everything that you could want and is set on a large property overlooking a lush landscape. The only noise is the sound of nature. Every comfort is provided. We particularly enjoyed time on the deck outside the bedroom, watching the birds and taking in the peaceful vista. Elizabeth is a great communicator and provided us with detailed information about every aspect of the airbnb. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in this lovely piece of paradise and would love to return.
