Baydream on the Beach - With Breathtaking Water Views

The sheltered harbour beach with calm waters often has dolphins swimming close by the shoreline. The grassy reserve, to the right of the holiday home, meanders around the coastline for a few hundred meters until it comes to another beach, and you can continue onto Nelson Bay. Less than 100m to the left of the home is a waterfront playground full of kids play equipment, and a paved path that winds its way through the waterfront reserve for until it reaches another delightful kids playground and the famous Anchorage.

Thank you for a lovely stay at this beautiful accommodation.
Overall the accommodation was beautiful however the balcony needed a sweep and mop and the outdoor furniture on the balcony could be upgraded with something a little more comfortable with a weather cover to match the rest of this wonderful property. However I would still highly recommend this property and will definitely stay again

Baydream was beautiful, the best location
The property was spacious, neat and tidy and very modern.
The location and views were exceptional, we had dolphins swim past most days, very close to the waters edge.
I would follow up regarding Wi Fi availability as we had two of our children doing uni work and they both couldn't connect at the same time which was very frustrating.
Overall we had a great time and would highly recommend this property.

The perfect location and closest to the beach. Just 1 min walk to the beach.
Seems to be some water leaking of the masted suite bath room and there are a lot of bugs inside the unit.
Other than this, the apartment is perfect and happy to stay again in future.
