There is another large family bathroom with double sinks, full shower suite and bathtub.

Great House Layout, Great Location, Highly Recommend!

This was a great house in the perfect spot, very accommodating with the sleeping facilities, large rooms and spaces. Would definitely book again. Only one thing was the driveway was quite steep to manoeuvre cars in and out of Garage.

Outstanding property

We loved our stay at this beautiful, very spacious home. Excellent position. Very close to lovely, safe beach, perfect for family to enjoy kayaking and paddle boards. The house had everything one could ask for; air conditioning in the living area and some bedrooms, and the 3 bathrooms were well maintained. Well equipped kitchen and good bbq. We would love to rent this home again.

Another brilliant stay at Dutchies

A fantastic week-end with a group of 7 very old friends, the house as always is brilliant for a group, a lovely view close to Town with a brilliant walk along the waterfront. A return visit for us and hopefully not our last, love Dutchies can highly recommend for a wonderful stay.

Fantastic stay, excellent accommodation

An absolutely fantastic house in the best location. Short walk to Dutchies, stroll around the point to Nelsons Bay and the marina but hey we as a group of 10 we only too happy to stay in and relax,eat and drink. The accommodation is luxurious, extremely spacious and well appointed with high end appliances. It was very easy to check in and deal with the management team.

LOCATION, VIEWS, SPACE

Dutchies Holiday was the perfect house for our group of two families. The lounge has windows all round with beautiful views of the beach below. Plenty of comfortable quality sofas and a large desk for our student who needed to keep up with uni work. The large kitchen is well equipped and we made use of the barbeque on the large deck with another great seating area. If I am going to be picky then the only negatives are: 1 bath towel each meant that we were constantly washing and drying and the lack of WIFI was a disappointment to some of our party, but a blessing for others. The house was beautifully clean with extra thoughtful touches such as board games, game consoles and a library. The beach was a few steps walk away through the pretty garden and the Marina a short walk along the beach path. Highly recommended.

This is the second time we have booked a stay at this amazing property. The owners are extremely helpful and have planned this house to the last detail. I stayed with my partner and parents and we all really just love the atmosphere and house so much, this for sure is my number one choice for any holiday getaway with family or partner. Really appreciate the opportunity to stay in such a beautiful property !

Another brilliant weekend

We stayed for the long week end in June, our third time at the house it never disappoints. A fantastic house for a large group with a great kitchen and a balcony with a wonderful view which is the gathering point for long lunches and dinners.

Fantastic property

We booked this for a large family get together and it was perfect. Heaps of room for everyone and everything you could ask for. Views were amazing and location was great. Ideal for the kids to play at the beach and for a short walk to Nelson Bay. Only thing to improve would be WIFI and some cloths for washing up etc.

Great place!

Fantastic family holiday house which is lovingly cared for by the owners. The house is well equipped with everything you could wish for from appliances to serving ware. There is a lovely walk to the shops and cafes of Nelson Bay, taking you past the stunning ocean views. great child friendly beach just 200m away. Parks and picnic grounds surround the property. Our second stay there in two years. We love it.

Beautiful home!

Our family of 7 (5 adults & 2 toddlers) recently stayed at Dutchies Holiday. The house was beautiful, spacious and had lovely views of the bay especially out on the balconies. Lovely art work, pictures and decorated. Excellent location just a short walk to the beach accessible via the back of the house and the park was a bonus for the kids. A short drive to the marina and Salanmander Bay shops to stock up. We loved the library in the first room and loads of dvd's available for the whole family. Even games provided. Alot of tv's with separate theatre and lounge, great when you need time out from the kids. It was great we didn't have to worry about a thing. The only downfalls - 1) There are 2 sets of bins however when we got there both yellow recycle bins were full with beer bottles so we had to dispose of rubbish ourselves. 2) House needs to be fumigated, every night we found cockroachers in the kitchen especially on the kitchen bench. Luckily there were insect sprays downstairs in the laundry room. But apart from those things, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Tip: driveway is very steep, going down not so bad but coming up a little tricky. Best to park on the street.

Great location

Had 2 nights stay with friends. We found it to be very noisy as the bedrooms are downstairs and the upstairs is floorboards with no sound cushioning. Also the house could do with a pest spray as there were cockroaches in the pantry, drawers and living areas. The house was large and comfortable and just a short walk via a walking path to nelson bay. We did have an enjoyably stay, but if you had children who went to bed early the floor nose above would keep them awake.

Another brilliant holiday!

Having stayed in the house last year, we returned again this year and had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful, spacious and perfect for our group of 6 adults and four children. The location is excellent and easy to get to around to local attractions. We look forward to going back again next year.

Fantastic house

We have just returned from our second stay at Dutchies and it was once again a brilliant holiday. The house is perfect for large groups, it is very well appointed and was immaculate on arrival. The location is beautiful and there are lots of great things to do nearby. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this house, we will be back again for sure!
