Absolute Oceanfront - Portovenere Fishermans Bay - Watch The...

If you want to be right on the water then you can't go past this place. Exceptional water views from almost every room, excellent facilities and beautiful location. Only 2 minutes walk to a snorkelling and swimming beach. Step straight onto scenic Tomaree National Park or relax and enjoy this private sea view sanctuary from either of the comfortable lounge rooms. Perfect for families or a romantic getaway for couples.

Portovenere has spectacular 180-degree views of the Pacific Ocean. This duplex brick house can sleep 8 people over 3 bedrooms. Two rooms with queen beds and a third with 2 king singles and a trundle. The master bedroom has fantastic ocean views and also has an ensuite. The main bathroom has a corner bath (not spa) and separate toilet. Downstairs there is another toilet. Split system air conditioner in downstairs living room and flat screen tv & dvd player. Fully equipped kitchen with microwave. BBQ and a double garage. Great accommodation for a family or a group of friends. See dolphins and whales from the verandah. Great beach fishing. Beautiful sunsets.

Great Holiday Accommodation in a Fantastic Location. Only 2 hours drive Nth of Sydney, and 40 minutes Nth of Newcastle, Fishermans Bay in Port Stephens on the coast of NSW is the perfect holiday destination, and Portovenere is the perfect holiday beach house.

Pretty Good
The property was exactly as shown - beds comfortable, furniture in reasonable repair. The property is a little tired but some very superficial upgrades and a bit of paint here and there will bring this very good short-term stay more than excellent. There was some noise for a very short time from the adjoining property and the call put in by Bay Reality fixed the problem and we were most thankful.

Amazing location
Loved our stay at this property even thought the weather wasn’t great. Would give it 5 stars however there are a few tired pieces of furniture, broken tiles, chipped plates, old beds- saggy- overall it could do with a decent refresh. The bbq is shocking - no gas, was not cleaned and super small for only t adults. Really needs to be replaced. Couldn’t fault it otherwise and would love to come back especially if maintenance is actioned.

Great location to explore Tomaree National Park and the coast
The property manager was excellent and supporred us through gale force winds, water coming in through the windos and a blackout. It's a holiday we will remember. The huge spa bath and very hot water were very appreciated.

Comfy Oceanfront
3 couples had two enjoyable nights in this property. Very comfy lounges and beds allowed us to relax and enjoy the home. The view is 180 degrees and we did see whales from outside and in.
