Beachfront holiday rental in Newcastle

You want to stay here. The Sandstone Cottage has an exceptional view and an ideal location. The dwelling is well maintained, very clean and perfectly serviced. Being able to use the provided water toys and kayaks was a bonus for our kids. We found the Sandstone Cottage to be comfortable because of how familiar everything was to us, and convenient because of how the space was so sensibly laid out. There is beauty inside and outside of this house. It rocks.

Clare's place is at a prime location, especially if you have dogs, the dog beach is right there. The property = lifestyle + living, great area downstairs for a BBQ and games. Place was neat and tidy. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Awesome place! Beautiful greenery around with a great view. The house is huge and I would stay again! Well presented house and would 100% recommend!

We had a wonderful weekend stay at this beautiful cabin! The location was perfect — right next to the lake, and just a short walk from the Indian Coffee House restaurant, which was a great bonus. The cabin itself was very well-organized, spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The peaceful surroundings and proximity to nature made it the ideal getaway. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a clean, cozy, and conveniently located retreat.

Perfect home away from home, close to the beach. Good communication with hosts. Bicycles are a nice addition to explore the area and EV charging port is super useful too.

The house was brilliant! Superb location, perfect for any combination of people. Sue's communication was fantastic, friendly and helpful. Thankyou Sue.

This is the second time we’ve visited Paul’s place and hopefully they’ll be another. It’s a quintessential Australian coast house, full of character and warmth. The beach is across the road and you fall asleep with the sound of the ocean. Heaven! Great back yard, everything you need and Paul is a 10 out of 10 host!

A lovely beach cottage. Perfectly located minutes from the stunning Shelly Beach, a fantastic local cafe and a short walk to the local surf club and golf club The cottage itself is basic but has all you need for a few nights stay. Perfect for a quick break by the beach. The host Elizabeth was friendly and helpful in her messages and provided some local intel on cafes etc.

Great family place for celebrating a special occasion. Great location with lots of close options and an absolutely amazing view. There was nothing better than ending the day with a sunset spa on the roof top terrace. Felt like there was no one else in the world!

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. The layout was thoughtfully designed and we especially loved the rustic charm of the bed and bathroom which created such a warm, cozy atmosphere. The location was perfect, the beach accessible from the back gate of the property and although the weather was chilly, we still enjoyed a lovely picnic down there. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay, making the check-in process smooth and welcoming. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful getaway!

Nicole’s place was so beautiful. As soon as you arrive you feel right at home. It comes with everything you need and just the right amount of space. Nicole is helpful and thoughtful and since it was my first time using airbnb I was abit nervous but she made the whole process easier for me. There’s local Restuarants and grocery shops and a pub and beach all within walking distance so the location of her place and pretty much everything else is 10/10. Thank you for hosting us Nicole we hope we are able to visit again soon.

We absolutely loved staying here! It is a such a beautiful home and in a great location. So close to Avoca town centre as well as great local walks to cafes, shops and the beach. The house was beautifully kept and had everything we needed. Being so close to the lake was such an added bonus! Felicity even provided a fantastic travel cot and highchair for our little ones. It's a great place to stay both with or without kids. As a family of 5 with 3 babies we were very comfortable and really enjoyed our stay. We will certainly be back. Highly highly recommend!

We just LOVED this place. cosy, beautifully presented- with everything you could possibly need to make your stay comfortable. The only bad thing about this home was that we couldn't stay longer. We would love to come stay again in the future, if Gwendoline would have us. Thanks so much- the De Caux family 🙏 ❤️✨️

Had such a beautiful peaceful stay 🙏the house was perfect and so close to the beach. Beautiful back entertainment area also. And the host was lovely and very fast msg response! I will definitely be booking again

Adrian’s place was so homely and comfortable. The beds were so soft and we didn’t want to leave that lounge! We had just the right amount of space for 4 adults and 2 kids. Adrian was very generous and thoughtful. Even leaving ice blocks in the freezer for the kids! The pool and games room was a hit with the kids. Great for the couple of rainy days we got during our stay. This was probably the most comfortable air b n b experience we’ve had. Everything ran smoothly thanks to a great host.

Had such a great stay at Ocean Gem! The apartment was lovely, clean and had everything you need. Loved the extra touch of a bottle of bubbles and chocolate! Deb was very responsive and such a lovely host. Location was amazing, the view from the balcony 10/10 and you can easily walk everywhere. I would highly recommend and will definately return.

Great stay at Claire in Copacabana. Outstanding communication and flexibility, the place was immaculate and super well located a stone through away from the beach shops including a great pizzeria. A big thank you to Claire for the chocolate brownies and banana cake a touch of home that made us feel at home. Highly recommend.

Spectacular, cosy, breath taking sunsets and the most amazing hosts. As a fellow host I could not fault this Airbnb. Beautiful unit, every detail thought of and what a sunset that must be caught. Adele and Peter are super cool hosts and so accommodating. You won’t be disappointed.

We had a relaxing stay at Mark's place, the location is amazing, right across from the beach and next to lagoon. 2 min walk to shops and 10 min walk to surf club, made it a very handy location. The decor was excellent, Mark has carried out a great renovation on the little beach house, it was very warm and inviting for duration of our stay.

My friend and I had a wonderfully relaxing stay. The home was beautiful and had everything we needed for a weekend sans kids and husbands. I would highly recommend this home for anyone wanting a relaxing stay, with magnificent views and in walking distance to all Shoal Bay has to offer, in Shoal Bay.

Nicky was friendly and a pleasure to deal with from the outset. The property was exactly what we expected as a result of seeing the photos in her listing and very comfortable and extremely clean. The view out the front of the unit across the water was amazing. The beds and linen were wonderful, so we slept soundly each night, and the kitchen was outfitted with everything we needed, so much so, that we felt it was our own. We couldn't speak highly enough about our stay, so happy to return sometime and to recommend it to anyone looking for a quality property at an awesome location. Thank you Nicky.

I have wanted to stay here for my years and even with all the anticipation and my very very high expectations- it was far better than I had imagined 😍 Magic in every corner and no detail too small that it wasn’t thought of! Little black shack isn’t just a stay it’s a full experience from start to finish.

Perfect location close to everything you need with an awesome view!

We really enjoyed our time at this airbnb and would absolutely recommend it. It was very homely with an incredible view!
