Coastal elegance on the Beach - Ocean Views

‘ON THE BEACH GETAWAY ‘ is our property’s name which reflects its fabulous beachside location and perfect family getaway.

Beautiful Modern Coastal 3 bedroom apartment looking out onto the beach and ocean.

Overlooking one of Port Stephens' safest ocean beaches, this luxurious 3 bedroom apartment is the perfect place to getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life. Surrounded by national park, white sand beaches and stunning natural attractions, this is a vacationer's dream.

It is just 30 metres to the sand and rock pools from your front door. Families with young kids love it here because of the safe waters and easy amble back to get sandwiches or another bottle of water.

Aircon, linen supplied, BBQ & 2 car garage.

The apartment is tailor-made for holidaying families, couples or a bunch of friends away together. There are three queen bedrooms, an ensuite and a main bathroom, Plasma TV, DVD/VCR and CD player, climate control air-conditioning and security parking for two cars in the garage. All linen is supplied, wi-fi is included and tea and coffee on arrival.

From the lounge and deck, you look straight down to the beach below, which is an ideal vantage point for firing up the barbecue and uncorking a bottle of sparkles. Grab the morning newspaper and a pot of tea or the coffee plunger before settling down on the balcony to the sound of breaking waves. You can serve leisurely dinners in the full kitchen or use the balcony barbecue to grill the freshest catch of the day.

Watch the whales in season from the balcony and from the many great viewing points around Boat Harbour. Dolphin spotting is excellent in Port Stephens' beautiful bays. The gently and protected beach at Boat harbour is great for kids. Be sure to pack your snorkel as the rocky coves and pools provide excellent diving opportunities. And of course the name says it all - Boat Harbour is the place to set sail, drop a line and reel in a nice, long relaxing break.

If you want surf action, One Mile Beach is just next door. A must see is the stunning Birubi Beach especially at sunset and for the more adventurous try sand sliding, camel riding and 4 wheel driving on the Stockton sand dunes.

Nelson Bay is just a 10 minute drive away for shopping, restaurants, cafes, and the Marina.

Neighbourhood:
• Boat Harbour is just a magic part of the world. Quiet hidden jewel. Friendly. Serene. The perfect place to unwind and forget about the world.
• Known by the locals as a great fishing spot, picnic area and whale watching in season.
• Walk to Kingsley beach and One Mile Beach through the national park.
• Just a few kilometres to Anna Bay shops and Birubi Beach and Stockton Sand dunes. Salamander Bay shopping centre is just a 7 minute drive away. Nelson Bay is the main shopping hub and Marina of Port Stephens, just a 10 minute drive.
• Tennis courts can be hired on Blanch Street, just up the road from the apartment.
• Take a picnic or have a BBQ in the park directly below the apartment.
Things to Note:
• Check in is from 2.00 pm and check out is by 10.00 am.
• Air conditioned, linen supplied, BBQ & two car garage.
• Mobile reception in Boat Harbour is limited and depends on coverage by your service provider (Telstra tends to be the best coverage).

Fabulous time in Boat Harbour
What's not to love about this place? Lovely apartment, a modern kitchen, a balcony with BBQ, a spacious living room, separate laundry, a double garage - and most importantly: an uninterrupted beach view. The whole family loved this apartment and its proximity to the beach. What a great location.

Even better than expected
We stayed at this lovely apartment on a wintery weekend. It is in a magical location away from shops and cafes, that are within easy driving distance. Whale watching was happening on the headland just across the beach. The apartment was equipped with everything we needed and we enjoyed looking at the dreamy view of the bay from the living area or while sipping coffees on the balcony. Communication with our host and access was made very easy, including a wide garage to house the car that you could drive straight into, only a few steps away from the apartment. The apartment does not have the usual rental “holiday house” vibe - more the quality that you would want to have in your own house. The pictures don’t n’t do it justice!

Comfortable property and Excellent location
This is nice and comfortable apartment. The location is excellent right before the Boat Harbor beach. The area quite and plenty of free car parking space in the street. All the famous attractions(Sand dunes, One mile beech, Toboggan park) and food are near by 5-10 min drive. The property is clean and well maintained. Easily reachable property manager and very friendly. We love this place and highly recommend to any one who wants to stay near beaches and quite location.

Relaxing getaway
Boat Harbour was a lovely place to relax. The apartment is exactly as promised, with a great view over the beach. We did not have the best weather, so spent most of our time indoors. Luckily the amenities made this enjoyable, with a good sized TV, comfortable beds and a kitchen that had everything we needed. Boat Harbour is close to good shops so it is easy to self cater. A great place to stay.
