This was a nice location. Good for walks, whale watching and a general peaceful position watching the waves crashing on the rocks. Good layout of the house, with bedrooms and bathrooms both up and downstairs, and an additional lounge area downstairs. the house was well equiped. We really appreciated some basic requirements that were made available. The only thing needing attention, which would be easily fixed, were light globes that needed to be replaced. The windows were dirty so we cleaned them, but after the first night, they were messy again, and I guess that's bound to happen when you are so close to waves breaking. We were also fortunate enough to see the sun and full moon setting over the rocks. Beautiful. Thank you for a really lovely stay.

We’ll be back

We had a great stay here and will be back. It’s conveniently located close to walking paths that take you around the headland to the patrolled Birubi Beach and Crest Cafe. Although the property doesn’t have air conditioning we just opened all the windows and put all the fans on which made it comfortable enough. Thanks for having us, we’ll be back.

The house has great set up and appliances in the kitchen. Bathrooms and toilets were clean and well presented. We did find “general “ cleaning of floors and tv areas were not clean. We washed the upstairs floors on the first day. Also, the house alarm went off when we entered the house. We weren’t aware the alarm system was on.

Thank you Paul for taking the time to leave a review. We sincerely apologise that the general cleaning, particularly the floors and living areas, did not meet our usual standards. This has been addressed with our cleaning team to prevent a recurrence. We also apologise for the alarm sounding on arrival. While check-in instructions, including alarm details, are provided prior to arrival, we will review how this information is communicated to ensure greater clarity. We appreciate your kind comments regarding the kitchen and bathrooms and thank you for helping us with improving guest experience. We look forward to welcoming you back. Thanks, McGrath Port Stephens

Great location but the property needs updating. The key collection and handover is inconvenient as it’s 15min away from the property. Linen needs updating as well as mattresses. TV antenna was old school which was frustrating. The house was clean.

Great location but the house is outdated

Location was great only a few minutes walk to the beach. The house itself is very outdated. Beds are old and not comfortable, TV didn’t work well and no there is no dryer making it a little hard when traveling with young kids.

Spacious home

Lovely home, Spacious, Ideal for 2 couples and kids. No air-conditioning. When booking price did not mention linen would be extra expence. So add an extra $115.00 or so if you don't want to bring your own.

2 week stay with dad and a worker

Could see the whales swim in the distance. A bit obstructed by the other house. Homely. Could do with an air con. We had to clean the shower heads so we could get a spray. Had to clean the bbq. Very rusty. But overall good.
