The Outlook 2 On The Beach
3 bedroom Holiday apartment for rent in Boat Harbour
Overlooking one of Port Stephens' safest ocean beaches, this luxurious 3 bedroom apartment is the perfect place to getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life. Surrounded by national park, white sand beaches and stunning natural attractions, this is a vacationer's dream. It is just 20 metres to the sand and rock pools from your front door. Families with young kids love it here because of the safe waters and easy amble back to get sandwiches or another bottle of water.
Space
The apartment is tailor-made for holidaying families, couples or a bunch of friends away together. There are three queen bedrooms, an ensuite and a main bathroom, Plasma TV, DVD/VCR and CD player, climate control air-conditioning and security parking for two cars in the garage. All linen is supplied, wi-fi is included and tea and coffee on arrival. From the lounge and deck, you look straight down to the beach below, which is an ideal vantage point for firing up the barbecue and uncorking a bottle of sparkles. Grab the morning newspaper and a pot of tea or the coffee plunger before settling down on the balcony to the sound of breaking waves. You can serve leisurely dinners in the full kitchen or use the balcony barbecue to grill the freshest catch of the day. Watch the whales in season from the balcony and from the many great viewing points around Boat Harbour. Dolphin spotting is excellent in Port Stephens' beautiful bays. The gently and protected beach at Boat harbour is great for kids. Be sure to pack your snorkel as the rocky coves and pools provide excellent diving opportunities. And of course the name says it all - Boat Harbour is the place to set sail, drop a line and reel in a nice, long relaxing break. If you want surf action, One Mile Beach is just next door. A must see is the stunning Birubi Beach especially at sunset and for the more adventurous try sand sliding, camel riding and 4 wheel driving on the Stockton sand dunes. Nelson Bay is just a 10 minute drive away for shopping, restaurants, cafes, and the Marina..

Neighbourhood overview

Known by the locals as a great fishing spot, picnic area and whale watching in season. Walk to Kingsley beach and One Mile Beach through the national park.

Getting around
Boat Harbour is just 2.5 hours car drive from Sydney CBD and 20 minutes drive from Newcastle (Williamstown) airport. A daily bus service does depart to and from Sydney, however Port Stephens is best accessed by car. Car hire is available from the airport. Local bus services are available throughout the day to all locations in Port Stephens and taxis are also available. However, car is by far the best way to see all the wonderful sights and activities that Port Stephens has to offer.
Other things to note
When you arrive, Susanna will let you know the wi-fi details and details about garbage disposal and collection days. She will also co-ordinate check out time with you. Mobile reception in Boat Harbour is limited and depends on coverage by your service provider. It is best to be on the balcony if you need to make a call. Coverage is fairly reliable along Gan Gan road. There is a landline for local calls or if you need to make an urgent call to a mobile or national number.
