We would have liked a nicer reception! The entrance to our part of the building was really wet for quite some time after the rain had stopped with no sign up. Needed to be mopped. The apartment was very nice and we booked there as it was close to the shops and clubs and not far from the water.

The apartment was not up to the high standard expected from Mantra. Bath did not have a plug and basin plug was too small. One towel had a rip in it. Toilet roll holder had a screw sticking out to stop it spinning. Bedroom light didn't work. I'm assuming apartments are owned by investors and managed by Mantra, but Mantra need to ensure apartments are maintained to high standards. Location was great, able to walk to shops and surrounding bays. Amazing cafes, restaurants and massage parlors.

Quiet, safe, easy parking, nice staff. Property condition is fine, cleanness is OK, WiFi is very slow, but we have enough mobile data so it's not a issue for us. Swimming poor is beautiful. It takes 7 mins walking to Woolworths and Thai food, 12 min to town centre. Pretty good for family traveling.

We had a fantastic 2-night stay at the Mantra Nelson Bay Aqua! The location is absolutely perfect — just a short stroll to cafes, restaurants, and everything you need, making it incredibly convenient for a family getaway. The apartment itself was spacious, clean, and very comfortable, offering plenty of room for our whole family to relax. The kitchen was impressively well-equipped, which allowed us to enjoy leisurely cooked breakfasts each morning — a real bonus. Everything was tidy and thoughtfully set up, making our stay stress-free and enjoyable from start to finish. We would definitely return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, well-located place to stay in Nelson Bay. A lovely spot and a great experience all around!

There was no problem with the property. I would say it was great value for money. I would love to just see them put some money into it and update the apartments. It was very outdated. Carpet everywhere. I was very worried about the kids eating at the dinner table due to there being carpet under it. I went with a 4 year old. 2.5 year old and a 9 month old. It had everything you needed and free parking which was a must as everywhere is metered parking in Nelson bay. Close to everything in the city centre and easy to find. Management was so helpful and lovely to deal with.
