Liked the position and the pool,though it would be handy to have a railing for elderly people. Apartment had very noisy neighbours next door who were screaming and fighting and making loud bang noises,mostly at night which ruined our holiday and our sleep.Beds were uncomfortable and place needa an uplift.Blood stains on quilt in main bedroom,took it of the bed, disgusting.

Nelson's bay is a beautiful location to relax anjoy the water . Great for all ages with plenty of options - boating, swimming , snorkelling , walking and socialising at cafes. Highly reccommend going on a dophin cruise as its great way to not only see the dophins but to see the harbour and surrounds, also good for solo travellers to enjoy.

The property was well furnished with modern and up to date furniture. It was reasonably clean and tidy. As far as ocean views go, I had to stand on my tippy toes to see a glimpse of the ocean in the far distance. Had a beautiful breakfast at The little Nel, we highly recommend going there!

Nelson Bay is just great.

Nelson Bay is just great. I dont live too far, in Newcastle, but we always had family trips to the bay for Christmas. And I want my son to have the same experiences I did when I was younger. It is just far away that it really does feel like we are on holidays somewhere alot further away. The shops, the cafes, the resturants, bars, everything is at your door step. Summer time is amazing, the bay has the most beautiful colours, everyone enjoying the sun. It is definitely 10/10

The host put so much effort in the decoration and design of the house. Everything was so stylish and elegant. The villa had everything we needed for the stay. We appreciated the Christmas Presents (chocolates, cookies, and bon bons) the host prepared for us. The courtyard and outdoor shower were very lovely too. Debbie was very attentive and lovely. It was very pleasant to communicate with her. We would definitely book again when we visit Nelson Bay next time. Thank you for everything.

We loved Ebony & Ivory villa and hope to stay again when we return to Nelson Bay. It is beautifully decorated with many thoughtful touches that made our stay comfortable and easy. Beds are very comfy, linen and towels lovely and the location is good - a short walk to town or little beach and a short drive to Shoal Bay. Debbie is a wonderful host who is very accommodating and welcoming. Thanks for having us.
