About this apartment rental

Blue Waters is perfectly located just 300m back from beautiful Shoal Bay Beach and the array of bars, cafes and restaurants which hug the coastline. With crystal clear waters and white sands, Shoal Bay is undoubtedly one of the prettiest coastal towns Australia has to offer on the east coast and the perfect holiday destination. You can hire kayaks, stand up paddle boards (open everyday during the high seasons of school holidays, long weekends and Easter) and bicycles. A short stroll to the eastern end of the bay is the magnificent Tomaree National Park with spectacular views from the top of Mount Tomaree. Facing the Tomaree National Park and headland, you will love the sounds of native birds and hearing the waves crashing gently against the shoreline. Just a 5-minute drive in the opposite direction brings you to Nelson Bay, and Fingal Bay Surf Lifesaving Club is a short drive away (approx. 2.3km) where you will find a surf patrolled swimming area and Learn to Surf Lessons during the warmer months.

This cosy and comfortable top-floor unit has an open plan living area with a TV and glass sliding doors out to a private balcony with stunning views over the bay. It features a kitchen with microwave, fridge/freezer and bar stools, and a dining table adjacent to the kitchen.

The main bedroom has a queen bed with built-in robe, balcony access, a small TV and a pedestal fan, and the other bedroom has a tri-bunk, while the bathroom offers a mini bath tub/shower and toilet. The unit also has an internal laundry with washer and dryer, and undercover parking.

Important Notes:
- Linen is NOT provided at this property. Bring your own linen including sheets, towels and tea towels or alternatively, please contact our office for hire details.

Old and dilapidated
Old and dilapidated
I expected an older property from the photos but the state of the unit was appalling. The master bed is a double not the advertised queen. The door to the master balcony is broken. The lounges are extremely uncomfortable to the point that the floor was more comfortable. The dining chairs were broken and uncomfortable. The DVD player didn't work. The kitchen range hood was broken. The ladder on the bunk bed was broken and dangerous as it easily pulled away from the bunk and is an accident waiting to happen. There is no air con and only a single pedestal fan to provide any cooling.

Older style unit in a good spot. Don't forget to bring your own linen. It is on the 3rd story with no lift so only suitable if you are good with stairs.

Apart from the amazing view, it was a dreadful place! The reviews were misleading. Beds awful and uncomfortable. Dining chairs very uncomfortable. Windows dirty. Lounge extremely poor and uncomfortable. Curtain bracket missing. Shower way too short. Cutlery dirty. One old small fan heater for whole place. We left one day early because of being such a terrible, old and definitely not value for money place. Never would we recommend this place to anyone

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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: Everything was great about the stay. Booking was easy and the Winning personnel were really helpful and professional. It was easy to book and a few emails back and forth sorted everything out. Trying to contact by phone was really wierd though, with calls going via an offshore call centre which was not very helpful at all. I just wanted to clarify a couple of points, but this was impossible and I was kept on hold while the call centre tried to locate someone to talk directly with. Not a good system.
We have been coming to Shoal Bay for 20 years, and this was probably our 8th stay in 8 Blue Waters. It's always been easy to book and arrange. Having booked and paid I did not expect the barrage of automated mails for online check in, etc. I am not one of the snowflakes who need constant contact and support.
8 Blue Waters is a true gem, best uninterrupted views of the bay from the balcony and comfortable for us. It wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, but we find it perfectly appointed for our needs. Sat out on the balcony and ate our evening meals and played scrabble, etc. Will go again later in the year.

Great location, superb view which more than made up for the dated decor. A fan would have been great
