SHOAL BAY RETREAT Unit 2 - doggie friendly duplex villa - 100m to beach
This is a cosy cottage only 100 metres from the water and village. It has a great TV and excellent outdoor areas for relaxing and eating. Our little dog adored it

Shoal Bay Holiday Park
Everything - from the delightful and welcoming ladies on reception to our sparkling cabin - was great! The only downer was the almost non-existent wifi.

Ramada Resort by Wyndham Shoal Bay
Our apartment was very dated but the view and location lovely. We were told if we needed any thing just call reception. There were three of us, apartment sleeps 4 but only 2 bath towels I tried ringing reception several times , no answer, so had to go down and ask for more. no sorry or explanation ...

Shoal Bay Hotel & Travel Guide\n
Vacationing to Port Stephens and not sure where to stay? The neighborhood of Shoal Bay can be found 9 miles (14 kilometers) to the east of downtown Port Stephens.
If you and your fellow adventurers are stopping off at Shoal Bay, the Nelson Bay Breeze Holiday Apartments and Mantra Aqua Resort are all within the same neighborhood as the Fly Point Marine Reserve. However, the Ramada Resort Shoal Bay and Beaches Serviced Apartments are in close proximity to the Nelson Head Lighthouse, if you would rather.
A good example of a lower-cost accommodation option in Shoal Bay is the Shoal Bay Beachclub Apartments.
While Shoal Bay features a selection of hotels, it is also worth considering securing a place to stay in Salamander Bay and Nelson Bay. Browse our Nelson Bay hotels guide and Travelocity's Salamander Bay hotels guide.
