Anchor at "D" Point unit A
We had a wonderfully relaxing stay at Jenny's place. The location was central to a great lookout, pristine walks and a beautiful beach. The place was the cleanest Airbnb we have ever stayed at and was very well equipped. Jenny was very friendly and responsive - we look forward to staying here again!

The Calm
Great location and easy process. Would recommend.

Apartment Newcastle Beach
Great location for the beach, ocean pools, walks and cafe/restaurants.

Absolute Beachfront @ The Entrance
We were really impressed with the view from the loungeroom. The place was very clean and the kitchen was fully equipped. It's very centralized, you can see the sea pool from the balcony and Coles is 750m away. Jonathan was also very quick in responding anytime I had a question. He also only asks that you take the rubbish out and doesn't ask anything extra like other hosts.

East end apartment in leafy heritage precinct.
We really enjoyed our weekend here. Wonderful location and the place was fantastic. Great amenities and vibe - looks and feels like the photos. Would happily stay here again

Stunning 2 level Penthouse, Rooftop Hot tub & BBQS
This is the second visit to The Entrance and this property… 5 years apart. It will always be my go-to stay when I visit Central Coast. Peter is friendly and proactive and the apartment is spacious, immaculately clean and real value for money. The rooftop terrace is the highlight for us, magnificent views, loads of different seating areas for eating, relaxing and socialising - with an outstanding hot tub! We would recommend this apartment 100% K&S. UK.

Port Stephens - Pindimar Beach House
Thank you Steven for sharing your beautiful home with us. My girlfriends and I had the best time relaxing inside out outside your home. Plenty of spaces to relax and play. Everything was perfect and we all look forward to spending time together there again. The sunsets and views are unforgettable! Cheers for your kindness Steven.

Blue Haven Gypsy Paradise-family friendly stay
Monique’s place was be try peaceful and relaxing. Ours was large family gathering to celebrate birthdays and her place accommodated comfortably all 14 of us. The rear deck and bbq overlooking the creek was a very nice place to relax in the evening together.

Getaway Lakefront Environmental House with Kayaks
Our holiday at Helen's lakeside property was absolutely fantastic! The location could not have been more perfect, right in front of a serene lake with picture-perfect scenery. The view from the property was breathtaking, providing the perfect backdrop for a relaxing and memorable stay. The spacious outdoor deck allowed us to fully enjoy the natural beauty around us, whether we were having meals, playing games, or simply soaking in the view. Inside, the house was just as impressive—spacious, immaculate, and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It was clear that Helen has taken great care in maintaining the property, and it made our family feel right at home. What made this holiday even more special was the fact that it was a multi-generational trip with our children and grandchildren. There was plenty of room for everyone to relax, unwind, and enjoy each other’s company. The property truly provided a perfect setting for family bonding, and we made wonderful memor

This is such a beautiful property with great amenities, it was clean and felt like a home. we had such a fun time being here! especially the teenage kids, one of our best holidays. They wanted to go back as soon as we left. And thank you so much to julie she made the experience so much more enjoyable with her quick and friendly responses. Check in was simple and smooth, the directions and house rules were so easy to follow, even check out was a breeze, would love to visit again. thanks again for giving us the opportunity to enjoy your amazing home.

MAGNIFICENT LAKEFRONT BEACH HOUSE. Central Coast.
This lakeside home is the perfect getaway for large family gatherings for all ages! The pool was AMAZING, the pool table was used constantly, the kitchen was well stocked and the 3 main bedrooms has the most incredible views. The beds were all very comfortable, and there were multiple TVs to suit everyone. The bathrooms were spacious and modern. The views were stunning across the lake, especially at sunset. our family of 13 had a very special and memorable stay. Justin's videos were very helpful and his communication was excellent.

Lakefront Paradise Retreat
The house is in a great position at lake Macquarie with lots of fun to offer. The house and each bedroom were delightfully decorated to add enjoyment to the stay. It’s a wonderful experience we have had. On the down side I would say if beds could be more comfy with better mattress that would be good. Will appreciate if have more floor towels or mop since floor is wet with lots of water activities expected. Shame we have no bbq we could use but we understand the reason. The main couch is a big old and smelly otherwise the home and stay have been perfect.
