As a disabled person in a wheelchair, it was accessible and I could bring my service Dog. It was located near an accessible pathways too beautiful Little beach and nature corridors.
This accommodation worked perfectly for my elderly father with flat accesses at entry points and the bathroom. We all had an enjoyable short break away here.
We had a lovely stay. The property was neat and practical, there were plenty of walking tracks to explore with the dogs, and we were only a block from the beach. Wests club and Nelson Bay town centre are only minutes away. We found everything we needed to make our stay pleasant and comfortable.
This is the second time we have stayed at this property. It is in such a great location. The kitchen is really well equipped. Would definitely stay here again :)
Situated in a perfect location and within walking distance to a beautiful beach and bay.The home is very comfortable with lovely ducted air conditioning.We loved that the property was pet friendly so we could take our little Pug on our family vacation. The yard is very dog-proof and spacious.The hosts were exceptional and very attentive. They communicated well and were very generous.We will definitely be recommending this property to all of our family and friends.Thank you so much. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Great location walking distance to beach’s very comfortable dog friendly yard property equipped with everything you need and clean and tidy. We all had a great time.
I really enjoyed the location of this property and how close to the beach it is.
It was only a 5mins drive to the centre and all the shopping and eating opportunities.
The outdoor courtyard was very private and nice to sit in and enjoy to beach air.
Definitely planning on visiting again

Great location, perfect for pet dogs, very clean and tidy.
We had a great 10 days at The Sandbar. The property was perfect for our family of 5 and 2 dogs. The home was very well equipped, with everything you could possibly need.
Thanks Annie, we’ll definitely be back
I loved the ease and convenience of a ground floor villa. The courtyard added to the private vibe and was relaxing.
Plenty of tea/ offer and Brekky/ ondents extras in the kitchen cupboard was a welcome addition.
This was our second stay at Sandbar and we enjoyed it thoroughly - property is clean, close to the beach and perfect for our small dog
Thank you Annie we will be back !

This home was perfect for our young family. It is walking distance to two beaches, one with a park. Our 3 year old had no problem walking it, I would walk it with an infant in a carrier. Location was perfect for us.
The home is very neat and tidy and well appointed. It had everything we needed, everything was easy to find and of good quality. The appliances were excellent - new Bosch oven, cook top and dishwasher made cooking and cleaning quick and easy.
The two bedrooms were of a generous size and the beds very comfortable. Having two bathrooms is actually also very convenient for a family. We were super happy with the outdoor area being safe for our kids.
Annie is a very thorough and considerate host. The house manual is your guide to Nelson Bay!
Very happy with our stay. Thanks so much for having us :)
Location is great. This property is so well equipped. The owners have made sue that there are plenty of glasses, cups and cutlery and everything else you could possibly imagine. Comfortable beds with quality linen and a lovely comfortable lounge suite. Such easy communication with the host. We will definitely be back!
The house was very comfortable for 4 adults. The seating in the lounge room was tight as the lounge could accommodate only 3 people but we were ok with using dining chairs. Very neat and tidy and kitchen well stocked.
Close to 2 beaches and a short drive to eateries. The beaches are not dog friendly which was a bummer for our pup but we drove to other dog friendly beaches.

About the host
Hosted by Annie Nham
I am Canadian and have been living in Sydney with my Aussie husband since 2015 after spending 7 years living in London. My husband fondly remembers holidaying in Nelson Bay growing up and we love the area, so decided to purchase a holiday home here. We wanted somewhere we could take our young kids to swim at the beach, go on nature walks, visit animal parks nearby and build memories of our own. When we can, we happily take advantage of working from home here in a relaxed, scenic environment.
Why they chose this property
We loved this house because it is so close to two amazing but different beaches, with the added benefits of a house rather than an apartment. Great for babies, kids and pets. Solidly built and functional with a nice sunny outdoor area.
What makes this property unique
Fully gated out door area perfect for toddlers and pets No stairs and elderly/disabled friendly Air-conditioned living area Two well sized bedrooms with two bathrooms (one is an ensute) Enough space for two cars on the property
