Beachfront vacation rentals in Salamander Bay

we loved staying at Clare's place, everything we needed to have an enjoyable holiday was supplied. Kids loved the wii, DVD selection and board games. beds were super comfy, lots of lovely light and our dog absolutely loved the dog beach.

Natalie and Colin were excellent hosts. Their house is very comfortable; they are very welcoming; and they were helpful responding to our queries. The house is located a short and pleasant walk from a stunning beach. Highly recommended!

Our stay was great. Very convenient to everything The unit was very well appointed and had everything we needed. It’s better than the photos. We will return again.

Thank you Steven for sharing your beautiful home with us. My girlfriends and I had the best time relaxing inside out outside your home. Plenty of spaces to relax and play. Everything was perfect and we all look forward to spending time together there again. The sunsets and views are unforgettable! Cheers for your kindness Steven.

We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at Loft Corlette. Such a bonus to be able to take our fur baby with us. The Loft was beautifully styled, open plan living with everything we needed. Cosy and comfortable! The design and style is very fitting to the location. Super close to the beach and only minutes to the shops. Thank you for sharing your gorgeous seaside home with my family.

My partner and I, and our 3 kids (between 5 and 8) had a great time! The house has a hot-water outdoor shower to get properly clean after a day at the beach. You can watch the beautiful sunrise across the ocean from the large living room windows. The kitchen has PLENTY of cooking utensils and crockery. TV has all the apps. The ping pong table downstairs was also worth it. It's useful to know that three of the 4 bedrooms are downstairs, and one queen bedroom is upstairs where the rest of the action is. The front balcony is nice and spacious, and the deck out to the back is HUGE! The location is extremely quiet, you can hear the waves on the beach. It takes about 3-5 minutes walk to get to the beach, it's very, very close.

Loved my stay here! Elizabeth let me leave my stuff in the accommodation in the morning (hours before check in), left lovely snacks and everything you need for breakfast in the unit, and was very kind and helpful. Elizabeth also offered me a lift to the train station cause the rain was so heavy and brought my washing to me when it was finished in the dryer (through the pouring rain). The accommodation is so cosy and actually feels a lot bigger than the photos indicate. The location is amazing, you’re barely 200 m to the beach, the best coffee spots in town (my opinion as a previous local) and some of the best pubs/ restaurants. I’ve stayed in loads of Airbnb’s and Elizabeth has got to be the kindest nicest host I’ve ever had.

Lovely place, great location and very homely. Would not stay anywhere else in Newcastle when back!

Great place for young family. The kids loved the heated pool and trampolines. Comfy and clean, the unit was well equipped and amazingly located, across road from beach. Would stay again

Narelle’s place is situated perfectly 2 mins walk from beautiful Little Beach and other attractions/activities in this area of Port Stephens. The apartment was beautiful and spotless with a fully stocked kitchen with everything you may possibly need as well as games and rackets for the tennis court. Parking was available on site. Additionally Narelle was quick to respond to any queries I had. I would definitely recommend Narelle’s place. I wish I could’ve stayed longer.

Great location. Being on the 3rd floor gave great views but with no lift made access a bit harder. Accommodation is pretty good, very good for the price. It is a bit tired and could do with a freshen up. Had a great week there - very suitable for a young family.

Had the opportunity to at Paul's place. Good space for family of 5. Everything you need was there. Access to 2 car parks underground was good. Look forward to staying there again.

My partner and I had such a lovely stay at Nicole’s place. It was quiet and private with walking distance to the beach. Great location for morning beach walks and dinners at the nearby Caves hotel. Nicole was very responsive and left us notes with great recommendations for food in the area. The only sad part was we wished we could’ve stayed longer! Would highly recommend if you’re looking for a beach getaway. Thanks Nicole!

Great location - so close to the beach. You can tell Lara has put a lot of thought into the airbnb. There is great finishing, the pool is lovely, aircon, nice appliances and lots of light. We will definitely be back!

The whole house was just right for us. 6 adults and 2 toddlers and a baby. Hannah even offered a cot and high chair for us. She is very responsive and thoughtful. She even left some Easter surprises for us in the fridge. It was great having the outdoor balcony upstairs too so we could relax (as much as you can with little ones around) and enjoy the view. We used the house and pool a lot as the children are so young. Great location and a wonderful home.

We had a fantastic stay in this apartment! The views of Fingal Bay were absolutely spectacular, and the short walk to the beach made it even better. We loved having the little grocery store and cafés just downstairs—so convenient. The underground parking and elevator access straight to the second-floor apartment were a huge plus. The large covered balcony was perfect for relaxing, and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed. We also appreciated how peaceful the area was while still being close to amenities. The only minor issue was sometimes the buses will idle at the bus stop near the apartment and if you have your doors open it can be a bit loud. But it’s only a couple of times per day we noticed it. Definitely recommend the apartment.

We had a great stay at Colleen’s. The location is amazing with beach, cafes and a supermarket at walking distance. The house was clean, well-equipped and very comfortable.

We had a fantastic stay at Marcus and Helen's property. The decor is absolutely lovely—thoughtfully chosen and welcoming, creating a real home-away-from-home vibe. The kitchen was impressively well-stocked with everything we needed, including quality crockery and utensils. The furniture throughout the house was very comfortable, perfect for relaxing after a day out. On top of all that, the location was ideal—peaceful yet close to everything we wanted to see and do. Highly recommended!

My staff have stayed there multiple times... they love it.

I had a fabulous mini getaway with my family at Laura’s place and couldn't have been more impressed. The place is beautifully decorated with a modern beach vibe, it’s very clean and tidy. One of the best parts was the location. Just a short walk to the beach, and it’s also close to restaurants and cafes which made everything super convenient. This place is a fantastic, Laura and Insa were very responsive and friendly.

We had a wonderful time , it was very peaceful and relaxing. The position of the place was incredible, the ocean at our doorstep and our own private rock jetty with lots of fish to catch and we even were greeted at the jetty by a turtle. This gate at the top was a little tight, especially for a 4x4 we just squeezed through, perhaps making the gate a little wider would be easier for some. This is a place I will most definitely return too. Thank you Prue who was a great host.

The house was lovely in a peaceful location. We were a five minute walk away from the water and a 5 min drive to the local restaurants and cafes. Bruce was very responsive to help us out and we really enjoyed our stay!

Thanks for being so accomodating & providing our family with such a great place to stay David. The house has so much character and sits in an amazing location. We would love to come back again! Thank you

The apartment looked great online, but was better in reality. Fabulous location, with 180 degree views from both living and lounge room. Apartment was beautifully furnished and clean. Everything worked. Jasmine was always responsive and warm. Will definitely stay there again.
