About this apartment rental
A Yachtsman's Rest is a beautifully decorated apartment with spectacular water views, air-conditioning and Wifi.
The Space:
The complex is directly across from beautiful Nelson Bay Beach and its calm waters, perfect for swimming, and a comfortable 500m walk along the foreshore to the marina, cafes, restaurants and boutique shopping.
You can step into a realm of refined comfort with our apartment, where filtered water views create a backdrop to the elegantly appointed open-plan living and dining area.
This 2nd floor apartment has been designed specifically for holiday letting. Entering the unit, you are greeted to a split level, open plan living area. The lower level houses the lounge area.
The main bedroom has sliding doors out onto the balcony so you can enjoy the view even while you are in bed, and offers a queen bed, built-in robe and a unique, colourful ensuite. The main bathroom has a shower and bath, and the internal laundry has a washer and dryer. Add to this, a private courtyard and undercover parking for 2 cars.
The kitchen has a microwave, cooktop, oven, dishwasher, and an Espressotoria coffee machine (Woolworths pods) perfect for your morning espresso.
You also have an internal laundry, washer, and dryer.
The Waterview Balcony:
Step outside onto the large partly undercover balcony where the views are outstanding. Enjoy the panoramic views across the harbour while you make use of the BBQ for an alfresco meal, coffee or afternoon drinks.
Additional Amenities:
Secure, undercover parking accommodates two small cars. Experience peace of mind with smoke detectors installed, ensuring a safe and worry-free stay.
The Location:
Nearby you can hire kayaks and stand up paddle boards in the high season of the school holidays and Easter, or book a dolphin watch cruise. The lovely Fly Point Park is just 400m away which offers shady grassed area, BBQ and picnic tables, a skate park, fantastic snorkelling/diving and, on some weekends, even markets.
The Area:
Nelson Bay is a treasure trove of coastal pleasure. With Nelson Bay Beach and D'Albora Marina just a stone's throw away, and the allure of boutique shopping and gourmet dining around the corner, you're at the heart of it all. Leave the car behind and let your feet guide you to the wonders that unfold around Nelson Bay and Port Stephens.

Floors needed cleaning, dim and insufficient lighting throughout, bedrooms need fans to help circulate hot air as it became very still ..air con only in lounge room and doesn’t reach the hot bedrooms...sewerage smell constantly from drains in main bathroom which was extremely unpleasant, dryer timer wasn’t working so dryer stayed on same spot all day and didn’t turn off. Loved the location and beautiful views

Awesome Location, a few too many stairs however when you have a baby to take up and down would have been good if there was ramp or lift for the stroller.Accommodation was reasonable, however for an apartment that sleeps 6 the crockery was not enough $ plates and 4 drinking glasses needed to purchase additional items to run the dishwasher. Issue with lights had to call 3 times to get this sorted.

Spacious and the views!
Beautifully presented apartment right opposite the water. Had all the little things that make a stay perfect. Location was fantastic. Modern and spacious split level , comfortably accommodating six. Bbq could be larger but this is the only 'complaint' (and not really a complaint, more an observation).
6.0 / 10.0
Tastes festival weekend
Great view just across street from sea abd walking distance to amenities for festival
BUT we had to make own beds and the outside area couldve been cleaned

Perfect Location
If you love Nelson Bay like we do, you won't fault this appartment. So close to everything you can park the car for your entire stay. Spectacular views and great inclusions. Re a previous review, there is now a hair dryer. Cross the road for a swim or just relax on the balcony and soak up the atmosphere. Loved it.

Stunning location
Great place. Views across the Bay were fantastic. Visits by lorekeets added to the experience. Disappointed no hairdryer and only two single blankets, older people feel the cold.
