Noise at Properties: NSW Planning has passed laws that affect guests. The Code of Conduct for holiday renting can be found on our website under the Guest Information tab. In Section 2.5.2 of the STR Code of Conduct, guests have an obligation to ensure the peace and comfort of neighbours and other occupants of the premises (if strata) near holiday rental properties. This means guests have to be very mindful of noise made in or outside the property that can disrupt neighbours at any time of the day. If you or any other guest receives a warning regarding excess noise or excess guests, you may be asked to leave the property immediately with no refund of monies. Noise audible outside the property is prohibited.

Check-in and -out Times: During the busy months of December and January, the check-in time is 4 pm to facilitate peak back-to-back changeovers. Our standard check-in time is 3 pm and check-out time is 10 am. We offer a complimentary early check-in or late check-out time as a gesture of goodwill where booking and housekeeping schedules allow. Note that due to demand and housekeeping pressures, no early check-ins or late check-outs will be granted during the months of December and January. The safest way to secure an early check-in or later check-out is to book the property for an extra night. Contact us for a special rate for this extra night. All Sunday late check outs must be requested and approved prior to 5 pm on the Friday evening prior. All complimentary early check-ins or late check-outs must be confirmed in writing so that our housekeeping team are informed accordingly.
Guest Registration: Guest registration is mandatory for all bookings and replaces the need for a cash bond for short term bookings (up to 20 nights). It is essential for fraud prevention, damage claims, safety, and emergency purposes. The process varies depending on the online travel agent used. Direct bookings require the booker to upload a copy of their driver’s licence and credit card through our encrypted online process.
Additional Guests: The guest limits apply at all times during the booking. Any extra guests (this includes day visitors) above those that have been booked and paid for must be approved in writing prior to the stay. Only the guests staying at the property are permitted to be present. If you wish to have visitors in addition to booked guests, you must advise us in writing prior to your stay and ensure you receive written permission. This is not possible at all properties.
No Extras: This property is approved for accommodation only. No mattresses, tents, caravans or more cars than the property accommodates are allowed. Under no circumstances are the following activities permitted at any of our properties: motorbikes, dirt bikes, quad bikes, use of firearms or air rifles, fireworks.
EV Charging: For safety reasons and to comply with insurance requirements, guests are prohibited from charging electric vehicles at any property that does not have a dedicated EV charging station. Charging electric vehicles without proper infrastructure poses a fire hazard, and in the unfortunate event of an incident, insurance cover may be compromised, and the guest held liable. If in doubt, ask our team for the closest EV charging station.
Long Stay Discounts: Some of our properties are well suited to longer stays. For bookings of 30 nights or more, we may be able to offer a reduced rate compared to what’s advertised. Please feel free to get in touch with our team with your preferred dates, and we’ll be happy to look at the best available rate for you.
Property Information: Information during your stay can be found in the Guest Information Folder or by calling our office 24/7.
For medium-term bookings (21-40 nights) and long-term bookings (41-90 nights), a non-negotiable cash security deposit is required. This deposit is refunded after the departure inspection, with any damage or loss deducted. The minimum cash deposit is $2000, with higher amounts for larger or more expensive properties, or at the owner’s/manager’s discretion.
Peace of Mind: For your added security we will never request payments be made to an overseas bank account and your money is held by us and not disbursed until after your departure.
List with Us: Guest demand across our portfolio remains high, and quality properties continue to perform well. With exposure across all major booking platforms and hands‑on local management, we’re well placed to attract the right guests at the right rate.

Reviews
The property was perfect for our puppy with a large fenced yard. We spent many hours walking on the beautiful off-lead, dog-friendly beach. Our accommodation was clean, bright and spacious, with air conditioning as well as fans and great BBQ and outdoor furniture. Great supply of cooking and kitchen requirements.
It was in the perfect location for a relaxing visit, just far enough away from the busy tourist areas. Our family had a comfortable stay, and the property was well equipped with everything we needed. Our pet could enjoy on-lead walks directly across the road. We would recommend this place to other families travelling with pets.
The house was filled with natural light and plenty of space for a big group. The lovely backyard with outdoor dining and a fire pit was a bonus. We felt very at home here and would happily return.

The home is very spacious and has a great backyard for dogs.
Our stay at Beach Bungalow was fantastic especially as it is pet friendly! We have stayed here before and noticed there is now air conditioning in the bedrooms and living room which is fantastic. The bay and beach are across the road, and Milk Bar and Thai restaurant 50 metres up the road. I highly recommend using the wood burner on a cold day- it’s great. Thank you for providing firewood- much appreciated. Plenty of rooms for our two boats and four cars.
It had everything we needed and Holiday Rental Specialists helped us quickly when another place we had booked via Airbnb turned out to be terrible.
Thanks for a nice stay!
If you want an authentic aussie holiday home experience, you can't go past this place!! An unpretentious but very comfortable family home offering spacious rooms with a great "beachy" feel. It also has a terrific backyard for a dog. The main foreshore trail in Port Stephens basically starts / finishes across the road and provides an excellent way to see the area by foot or bicycle. We would definitely come back here again.
Very comfortable, spacious, and well-equipped. Great walking for the dog. Handy for everything we wanted.
