Oaks Port Stephens Pacific Blue Resort, hotel in Salamander Bay

Oaks Port Stephens Pacific Blue Resort provides relaxing resort accommodations in Salamander Bay.

Pool was amazing but cold I guess to be expected, would only be good on hot days in summer Spa needed to be warmer and staff needed to monitor parents allowing children to ignore rules splashing and kicking turning on and off constantly (button needs to be higher so children can not access), putting heads under water. One child under 2yrs went under water a near drowning parent was standing above them watching other children in the other pool unsupervised. Strict instructions need to be given at check in for families with young children.

Perfect weekend getaway plus golf at your doorstep, hotel in Salamander Bay

Perfect weekend getaway plus golf at your doorstep offers accommodations in Salamander Bay, 3.1 miles from Anchorage Marina Port Stephens and 3.7 miles from Soldiers Point Marina.

Beautiful property, cozy and tastefully decorated, wonderful views of the golf course, well equipped with all the necessities to enjoy a nice break! Our doggie enjoyed looking at the wallabies and walking and sniffing around the property common areas, we stayed off the green as we don’t play and not sure if its allowed to walk around specially with our dog, however the common areas around the main street and along the entrance to the property are very beautiful, also we discovered a walking trail at the bush behind the golf course, so that was more than enough for us. Super enjoyable stay and would love to go back.

Offering an indoor pool and a shared lounge, Ingenia Holidays Soldiers Point in Soldiers Point is close to Kangaroo Point Reserve Beach and Soldiers Point Marina.

This is a great place to stay, the park is clean and very well run, there is even a coffee van which comes round each morning. The staff were very friendly and helpful and gave some great personalised suggestions for local places to visit. Try Anna's Bay for a fantastic coastal walk and to visit the sand dunes.

    Apartments are privately owned but managed by the resort.

    Apartments are privately owned but managed by the resort. Lagoon pool is huge and you can access from the balcony. Opposite is a large shopping centre with fast food and supermarkets. Only restaurant in close proximity is in the resort if you like pizza. Buses run front the door to Nelson Bay. We fly but would probably come by car next time.

    Salamander Bay is a great location to unwind and have a short break from the hustle and bustle of our busy lives. You can choose to go to the beach or drive a few kilometers for other outdoor activities. The sand dunes and camel ride activities are just a short distance drive. The Oaks Port Stephen Pacific Blue Resort is one of my most highly recommended accommodation, with great location and amenities.

    Amazing property. Big enough for 10 ppl. Appliances all great. Absolute waterfront. No more than 20 steps away from water. Salamander hotel has a curtesy bus. We had dinner there, food was great, entertainment was good. Next time we will visit more local areas, we just didn’t want to leave the amazing property.

    Pool, restaurant, accommodation, staff, cleanliness - excellent. Have stayed a number of times before and will definitely stay again. Great family holiday in warm weather . Children even swam in pool in pouring rain . Would have liked the Villa (508) to have had more utensils in the kitchen . Cutting board, mop, vacuum, sharper knives, baking trays .

    We went to lot of activities, camel ride , shark and ray was a gem , we able to get in the water to pat and feed the sharks and sting ray, it was fun for whole family. Dolphin cruise dolphins just swim next to your boat . Sand boarding . We went to butterfly house, it was a huge disappointed. Over priced with poor condition. Not treating animals right , if you planning to visit , DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

    Having a kitchen with a stovetop and the oven was great as well as a washing machine and dryer facilities inside. The pool is just outside the room meaning no need to walk far to get to it. The parking was free and it was only a small walk to your room and back. I do recommend an apartment room with a swim out as it is the nicest option if you plan on staying at the resort most of the time. Internet access was great to have too. The room was spacious and the en-suite bathroom was big with a spa bath which was a luxurious touch.

    Love the swimout room, easy access to the pool without having to walk around the resort. Pool secured well from the balcony so didn't have to worry about kids getting into the pool. Pool was a great depth for toddlers and Room was a great size. Basic kitchen for what you need on holidays. The restaurant at the hotel is great and easy access. Walking distance to Salamander Bay shopping centre to stock up at Woolies. 5-10 minute drive to Nelson Bay and Shoal Bay.

    The place was very clean, the hosts were very friendly and welcoming, the breakfast was very nice, the place is spacious, the toilet is extra clean, the location is very handy, the coffee machine was perfect, the bed sheets were 5 stars hotel style and the most important thing to me was giving attention to details and that's what makes this place very special

    - The location is really nice, very close to the Salamander square shopping centre - The main attraction of the hotel - the pool - is really nice. - We had booked the "on the swimming pool" 1 bedroom apartment (straight access to the pool from the room itself) and it was really nice , comfortable and clean. No problems there.
