About this house rental
Boasting breathtaking water views over Port Stephens harbour, this property sleeps up to 10 guests (max 8 adults), is a short stroll to The Anchorage, and is only a few minutes drive to Nelson Bay's CBD and marina.
This contemporary duplex enjoys penthouse position occupying the entire top floor and taking full advantage of the panoramic sea vista. The white sands of this pretty curved beach are just meters from the property, separated only by a lovely grassy reserve. This location and beach is perfect for families with young children. The sheltered harbour beach with calm waters often has dolphins swimming close by the shoreline. The grassy reserve, to the right of the holiday home, meanders around the coastline for a few hundred meters until it comes to another beach, and you can continue onto Nelson Bay. Less than 100m to the left of the home is a waterfront playground full of kids play equipment, and a paved path that winds its way through the waterfront reserve for until it reaches another delightful kids playground and the famous Anchorage.
Baydream on the Beach has a large open plan deluxe kitchen, dining and lounge room with high ceilings and windows taking in all the gorgeous north facing sunlight. Sliding glass doors open onto the outdoor deck where you can relax on the comfy outdoor furniture and use the BBQ to cook up bacon and egg brekkies or fish you've caught from the beach.
The large master bedroom has an ensuite and king sized bed. Bedroom 2 also has a king bed, and bedroom 3 has two long singles that can be zipped together to form a king bed if preferred. Bedroom 4 can also act as a second living area, as it has a TV and sofa bed (which can sleep up to 2 kids) and two long single beds, and it has direct access onto its own balcony.

The whole team from Stay Port Stephens make our family holidays an absolute pleasure. From prompt and attentive service to a seamless check in and out experience, the stay is always enjoyable - and it’s our third time staying at Baydream on the Beach. The property was immaculate and offered everything we needed - kitchen supplies and space for a toddler to frolic. The proximity to the water was wonderful. There is a private beach 10 metres away to go for swimming or kayaking.

We enjoyed our stay with the family. Clean and well equipped apartment and good location for us as we wished to be best near the Corlette Marina. The only thing to keep in mind is that the fourth bedroom does not achieve darkness as it has skylights with no coverings. Thanks for a lovely stay.

Reviewer Comments:
Having undergone chemo treatment for several months, was looking forward to a relaxing getaway up the coast and decided to stay at Baydream. Property looked in the photos but was extremely small and squashed even though it says it fits up to 10 guests - we only had 5. There wasn’t enough space for the cars to be parked and it wasn’t clear as to where parking was allowed. We had upon arriving at the property parked a vehicle in the way of another guest which we moved immediately upon being notified. Check in was after 3pm and check out was at 10am - so we essentially paid $1,635 for less than 48hours. During the 48hours we had no hot water, received a call from a messaging service with a delayed message to move our vehicle because it was blocking a guest which had already been addressed, received shocking experience from the other guests staying in the other unit, was without authorised charged an additional $55 on top of the ~$400 already charged for cleaning. Extremely disappointed with the really poor service and experience. I would NOT recommend staying here. Save your money - there are loads of better places to enjoy a beautiful weekend away at port stephens/corlette.

Every detail is taken care of with top end appliances and décor to allow a relaxing stay. Clean and well set up for visitors - we hope to be back soon.

We took our families to a baydream for an holiday but end up because a nightmare. We won't come back becasue of this horrible house host. My mom brought her own kettle but we forgot the kettle base and I request to send it back but they throw it away so we can't use the kettle anymore! the wind blew an artificial pot down from the coffee table. I checked the vase was broken but the srtificial plant was totally fine. And I said thats okay I will pay for the vase although it was the wind blew it down but it happened during our stay but the house host charged me $200 without clarify the whole incident. Terrible terrible host.

Overall the accommodation was beautiful however the balcony needed a sweep and mop and the outdoor furniture on the balcony could be upgraded with something a little more comfortable with a weather cover to match the rest of this wonderful property. However I would still highly recommend this property and will definitely stay again

The property was spacious, neat and tidy and very modern.The location and views were exceptional, we had dolphins swim past most days, very close to the waters edge.I would follow up regarding Wi Fi availability as we had two of our children doing uni work and they both couldn't connect at the same time which was very frustrating.Overall we had a great time and would highly recommend this property.

The perfect location and closest to the beach. Just 1 min walk to the beach.
Seems to be some water leaking of the masted suite bath room and there are a lot of bugs inside the unit.
Other than this, the apartment is perfect and happy to stay again in future.
