Excellent location and property
We had a great 10 days at The Sandbar. The property was perfect for our family of 5 and 2 dogs. The home was very well equipped, with everything you could possibly need. Thanks Annie, we’ll definitely be back

Happy holiday
I loved the ease and convenience of a ground floor villa. The courtyard added to the private vibe and was relaxing. Plenty of tea/ offer and Brekky/ ondents extras in the kitchen cupboard was a welcome addition.

Perfect home base
This home was perfect for our young family. It is walking distance to two beaches, one with a park. Our 3 year old had no problem walking it, I would walk it with an infant in a carrier. Location was perfect for us. The home is very neat and tidy and well appointed. It had everything we needed, everything was easy to find and of good quality. The appliances were excellent - new Bosch oven, cook top and dishwasher made cooking and cleaning quick and easy. The two bedrooms were of a generous size and the beds very comfortable. Having two bathrooms is actually also very convenient for a family. We were super happy with the outdoor area being safe for our kids. Annie is a very thorough and considerate host. The house manual is your guide to Nelson Bay! Very happy with our stay. Thanks so much for having us :)

Comfortable
The house was very comfortable for 4 adults. The seating in the lounge room was tight as the lounge could accommodate only 3 people but we were ok with using dining chairs. Very neat and tidy and kitchen well stocked. Close to 2 beaches and a short drive to eateries. The beaches are not dog friendly which was a bummer for our pup but we drove to other dog friendly beaches.
