About this property
Rubys Retreat, 44 Achilles Street - pet friendly, aircon, wifi & boat parking
Introducing Ruby's Retreat - your dreamy, dog-friendly holiday rental tucked away in the heart of Nelson Bay. This delightful property accommodates up to six guests, perfect for that relaxing family getaway or an eventful trip with your best friends.
Featuring three beautifully-decorated bedrooms, each filled with light and vibrantly colored, Ruby's Retreat immediately feels like home. Retreat to the master bedroom with Queen-sized bed, TV and the comfort of a ceiling fan. The other two bedrooms both with ceiling fans offer equally comfortable accommodation with a mix of double and king single beds, perfect for both adults and children.
The heart of the home is, of course, the open-concept kitchen and dining area. From a fully-equipped kitchen, including a dishwasher and microwave oven, it’s perfect for preparing and enjoying home cooked meals. The air conditioned lounge room, equipped with Smart TV, free Wi-Fi and ceiling fan, provides a perfect setting for those movie nights or lazy afternoons.
Ruby's Retreat comes with all the amenities you'd desire for a comfortable stay. Love the outdoors? Indulge in the lovely fully enclosed yard which is perfect for children and pets or the spacious balcony equipped with BBQ - the ideal spot for alfresco dining. We also have a laundry with washer/dryer and boat parking spaces and long-term renters are most welcome!
When you're ready to explore, enjoy the convenience of being just minutes away from Little Beach and Shoal Bay Beach. This beautiful holiday rental captures the best of Nelson Bay and Shoal Bay – sun, sea, and sand!
Whether you’re down for an adventurous boat trip or a quiet BBQ evening at our outdoor area, Ruby's Retreat has something for every kind of visitor and their fur baby.
