Port Stephens surprise

Over nighter after a long motorcycle journey, it was a wonderful surprise to arrive in such a lovely place with really helpful staff. The bush/beach setting is ideal though I only took an inexpensive, dorm room. I'd like to have stayed longer but had appointments to meet.

You like in the woods in a cabin. You have to go outside to go to the toilet. The kitchen is an outdoor kitchen but with everything needed. Everything was clean. The owner was extremely nice and helpful. It was an experience in itself just to stay there. Would highly recommend. You would have the best experience with a car since the busses only comes once an hour. The bus stop is right infront of the hostel though.

가족여행 후기

정글속 분위기가 이색적이네요. 다만 여름엔 모기가 많아 bbq 하기에는 조금 부담됩니다. 그래도 식당에 해디라는 쿠커바라가 와서 반겨주니 기분이 좋네요. 근처에 포트스티븐스 사막보딩 체험과 토마리 국립공원 추천합니다.

The bungalows were really nice with sturdy bunks and outlets by each bed. They also had a mini fridge in each bungalow, so that made it nice to have food close by. The pool looked dirty, so I did not use. The kitchen and lounge area is all outdoors, same with the bathroom area. They have individual covered stalls and a sink that is completely outside, so that got pretty dirty. My first night there they ran out of toilet paper in both toilet stalls and it wasn’t replaced until late morning the next day. Really long time to not have toilet paper. If you’re into the eco thing, this is probably great for you. I also was walking into spider webs frequently, that was the worst part for me.

Beautiful environment, friendly staff, great location as it is central to Nelson Bay and the beach at Anna bay. Bungalows are clean but rather outdated, needs a bit if love. Definitely need air conditioning in the rooms. Found ourselves at Big W buying another fan.

Beautiful but expensive...arrived to find out we still owed them $155....so it cost $465 for two adults and two kids in what is basically a backpackers joint with shared bathroom and kitchen. Had to make the beds when we arrived and the linen was dusty. Sorry won't be going back here.
