Lautus Nelson Bay

Lautus - luxury in Latin. The perfect description of this beautiful space by the bay at stunning Nelson Bay. Centrally located within the Mantra Aqua Resort, Lautus offers a well appointed large courtyard for you to enjoy on a summers night. Guests are able to enjoy all that the Mantra has to offer with guest access to the communal bbq area with resort style solar heated pool. The town offers many cafes and restaurants all within a short stroll of the apartment. I hope to see you soon. Melissa

Bill's

My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, business travellers, and families (with kids). The property has been our family holiday home for many years. The kitchen is very well equipped for big family dinners. We are not big on electronic entertainment , only an amazing view to keep you occupied! The property is older style which is reflected in the price. Our first floor apartment is very spacious and comfortable .
