Memories on the Beachfront

Memories on the Beachfront is only a few minutes drive from Nelson Bay CBD and is located in one of the best beachfront positions in the whole of Port Stephens! This massive six bedroom home has multiple living areas, two kitchens, and is perfect for two families, multi-generational families or large groups to share. Memories on the Beachfront sleeps up to 12 guests (max 10 adults), lovely water views and is only meters away from the white sands of a gorgeous calm water beach. Surrounded by nature, Memories on the Beachfront is beyond compare.

Memories on the Beachfront encompasses everything we all dream of when fantasising about our dream beach house holiday. The park-like gardens and reserve offer the perfect space for kids to run and play. There’s a delightful little paved pathway, that winds its way through the beach reserve and has kids play equipment at each end. Stroll a few steps and you’re at The Anchorage Port Stephens, renowned for its opulent day spa, fine and casual waterfront dining. Go for an evening walk along the break-wall that wraps itself around The Anchorage Marina and watch the sun set.

The ground floor is comprised of a family bathroom, an open plan kitchen, lounge and dining room, which all look out onto the grounds and the glistening water beyond and flow out onto the undercover patio complete with BBQ and outdoor dining table. There are four bedrooms on this level. Bedroom 1 enjoys the reserve and water views, opens onto the patio and has a queen bed. Bedroom 2 has a king sized zip bed(nominate preference) and TV. Bedroom 3 also has a king sized bed. Bedroom 4 can act as a kids bedroom, as it has a TV, two seater lounge and a set of bunk beds.

The first floor is comprised of yet another fully equipped kitchen, which is open plan to the generous dining room and both are blessed with water views and open onto a huge undercover deck with comfy outdoor furniture and dining setting. The separate spacious lounge room opens onto its own deck. There are two bedrooms on this level. Bedroom 5 (the master) has a TV, enchanting water views, direct access to the balcony, a king bed and ensuite with double vanity, shower and corner spa bath. Bedroom 6 also has a king sized bed. The family bathroom on this level has a bath and separate shower.

Memories on the Beachfront has a double lockup garage. The home is fully air conditioned, has a laundry with washer and dryer. Stay, play, rest and rejuvenate and experience Memories on the Beachfront for yourself!

Sisters Summer holiday
Five of us sisters, and our husbands spent a glorious seven days at this little bit of paradise. The house was perfect for us. The bedrooms were all spacious and the linens were lovely. Checking in was very easy and we settled in on the first day with a visit to the beach just a short distance in front of the house. We spent every day on that private little beach and the dolphins swam by every afternoon to fill us with delight. The views are fabulous the shopping Centre is close by and it’s a very short drive to Nelson Bay for some retail therapy . We all agreed. This was the most beautiful holiday we have had for a long time. Thank you stays we will definitely be rebooking.

Perfect Location, average house, disrespectful owner
The location of this house was just perfect, with a large lawn and garden between the house and the beach. It was the perfect spot for the kids to play and adults to relax. The house was well appointed with plenty of cooking utensils / crockery and the two kitchens were really handy. The rest of the house was fine, it was comfortable but needs some updates. The bathrooms are very tired. There were broken lamps in the bedrooms and a lack of powerpoints. There was not enough toilet paper / washing machine tablets provided to get through a 5 day stay (this is not a cheap house, this should have been included). The house is not safe for toddlers, there is no way to close off the internal stairs, and also a set of stairs heading down from the balcony. The roller blind pulls were not secured to the wall and were loose, which is a hazard for little kids. Overall we enjoyed our stay, however I would stay in a different house in the same location next time. The real trouble started after we had left. While vacuuming the house before leaving, the vacuum broke. We alerted the property manager after checking out. Our significant security deposit was held while they liaised with the owner about the vacuum. Eventually the majority of our deposit was refunded, but they hung on to some until the owner had determined whether the vacuum would be repaired under warranty. The implication of this was that we had somehow misused the vacuum while cleaning the house. Four weeks later the owner finally refunded the remainder of our deposit, as they were able to have the vacuum repaired at no cost. This is not an acceptable way to treat guests, it's been a waste of our time and a stress we did not need returning from holidays. As a result we cannot recommend this house as a place to enjoy a relaxing holiday.

Dream location for family gathering
A wonderfully appointed house for our family gathering to celebrate Grandma's 80th - a perfect location on the reserve and directly opposite the beach. We could not have asked for a better house to cater for all the ages!

Great for a Family Getaway
This property is outstanding. We had an intergenerational family holiday - kids, parents and grandparents and it suited all our needs perfectly. The two levels allowed the families with kids to occupy the downstairs while the other adults had separate bedrooms upstairs. The house is stylish and well furnished and was beautifully presented when we arrived. All beds were very comfortable, both kitchens were well equiped and having a large table and sufficient chairs upstairs meant we could all eat together. The added bonus of the decks with wonderful views over Port Stephens with regular passing dolphins and the safe, clean beach right at our doorstep was terrific. A memorable holiday was had by all and we will hopefully be back in the not too distant future.

Great location
Facilities and location were great - the strict rules and requirements are a bit restrictive. The taking of a large bond out of your account two weeks before the date of accommodation we thought was very unusual. Read conditions carefully before booking.

Had a great family time. Property is safe and ideal for children. The cleaners do need to put more effort in as there was built-up dirt in the corners and hairs in some of the beds. The only major issue was the aircon and heating. Downstairs was absolutely freezing so we had to bring the kids upstairs on mattresses to sleep in the lounge room. I rang the Property Manager and she said they would send someone to look into the problem on Saturday morning but nobody turned up which was quite annoying. There is also no overall instruction manual for appliances etc which would be helpful. Thanks

Perfection!
This was the second time we have stayed at Memories on the Beachfront. It truly is a lovely property and is perfect for our family. The house is very well equipped with plenty of personal space for everyone to enjoy. With a beautiful reserve that leads to a gorgeous little beach and a bike track where you can walk or ride into Nelson Bay we were spoilt for choice for activities. Shane and Michelle are fantastic to deal and I would highly recommend this property. Now to rebook for 2023!

Fabulous property and location
We had 6 adults and 6. Holstein ranging from 9-16 years old and there was plenty of space for all of us. The property is immaculate and beautiful and the view from the balcony is wonderful. The rooms were all great and the kitchen is well stocked. Everything was spotless and the added assistance from the Bay Butler with some preparations for a birthday was a huge help. We have stayed at a number of great Stayz homes over the years but this is up there with the best!
