Blue Waters Unit 8/59 Ronald Ave, Shoal Bay - This cosy unit has the views and the position!
7.8 out of 10, Good, (14)
"I expected an older property from the photos but the state of the unit was appalling. The master bed is a double not the advertised queen. The door to the master balcony is broken. The lounges are extremely uncomfortable to the point that the floor was more comfortable. The dining chairs were broken and uncomfortable. The DVD player didn't work. The kitchen range hood was broken. The ladder on the bunk bed was broken and dangerous as it easily pulled away from the bunk and is an accident waiting...

9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (9)
"We holiday frequently in the area, but wanted a yard for my young young to run rather than being at the top of an apartment. Still super close to beach, shops and Country Club. Kids would ride their scooters down to the water. Was very quiet and private. Would book again, perfect for just 4 of us. Even though it was July the weather was amazing and we did swim and enjoy lots of beach time. Always beautiful sunsets. Would recc this time of year so much quieter and relaxing than the summer."

"Great property, location and amenities. Beautiful water views from apartment bedrooms and balcony. There were a few members of the public congregating outside the property after hours talking into the early hours so there was a bit of noise but that’s outside Mantra’s control. Everything else was perfect for a comfortable and value for money stay. Undercover parking a bonus to keep cars secure from theft and in case of storms. Highly recommended and happy to stay again - thank you!"

Amore At The Beach
4.0 star property
8.8 out of 10, Excellent, (571)
"This is a lovely apartment with a great view. There are some things that need improvement, the outdoor chairs are very uncomfortable and seat you so low that I couldn’t see the view over the balustrade. There were a few window winders that were broken and some long term dust on the bedroom window that fell onto the bed when I closed the window. But saying that I enjoyed my time there and loved Nelson bay. "
