The bonus of having the main bedroom with ceiling fan, second bathroom with shower, toilet and living area all located on the ground floor makes 1/10 Catalina a very easy holiday getaway.

Two additional bedrooms and the main bathroom are located upstairs, both bedrooms have ceiling fans, and the bathroom features a bath, shower, vanity, and separate toilet.
Step outside onto your private undercover area - a perfect spot to start your day with a cup of coffee, or BBQ under the stars. Your little ones will appreciate the child-friendly surroundings with the cycle pathways that flow between all of Little Beach and a close-by playground located on the waterfront. The property has an internal laundry with a front loader washing machine and dryer and provides two car spaces.
The property has a fully equipped kitchen with complete cooking facilities including electric oven, microwave, and family size fridge/ freezer. 1/10 Catalina Close provides an unforgettable holiday experience by the sea and in the perfect location between Little Beach and Shoal Bay beach.

Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The carpet is very old, stained and gritty. Worse still, it's dangerously misleading as you think it has the grip of carpet on the stairs. But no, it's so worn that my 6 yo child slipped and had a fall, landed on his back and really hurt himself.
We complained to “McGrath Port Stephens” who were very unhelpful. So much so we cut our family holiday short.
Sadly there’s a heap of things that we weren’t happy about that “McGrath Port Stephens” failed to address.
1. A window screen were not the right size.and allowed heaps of mosquitos in
2. Some quilt covers were stained and needed cleaning. We noticed this on some previous feedback on their website, and thought they would have learnt something. But no.
3. The kids pillows had disgusting stains on them
4. Shower towel rail small and not practical in main bathroom
5. Very narrow upstairs toilet with no basin to clean hands
6. Poor lighting throughout
7. Water undrinkable
8. Couldn't open some windows.
9. Washing line broken and Not enough pegs
Very well kept properly. Was ideal for our family with adult children as there were 3 bedrooms. Also very easy access to beach and town centre

Good value house close to the beach
The best thing about this house is the location in a quiet cul de sac very close to Little Beach. The house itself is clean and tidy but feels a little bit tired. Kitchen implements could do with a refresh. Overall though good value as you can accomodate 4 adults and 6 kids.
