About this property

Bayviews Bed and Breakfast Port Stephens

Welcome to:- "The Bays Best Kept Secret". Since opening December 2002 Bayviews B&B still offers $90.00 per room per night accommodation...!!

A purpose-built B&B & art gallery/studio opposite Cromarty Bay Road tree-lined beachfront reserve at Soldiers Point, Port your'll discover the quiet part of the 'Bay', as well as Australia's renowned blue-water wonderland & dolphin/whale watch capital, all just a 2 hour easy drive north of Sydney, NSW.

Refurbished January 2023 Bayviews is still consistently ranked in the regions "TOP 10 B&B's" and continues to offer star accommodation for up to 2 guests with queen size bedroom, private bathroom and breakfast/lounge room, all with polished timber floors and fans throughout a smoke-free interior. Guests can enjoy relaxing outdoors in tropical landscaped surroundings, with parkland all around and Cromarty Bay right across the road with no passing road traffic... just peace and quiet... yet the property is still just minutes to all the regions attractions, beaches, shops & amenities...

Bayviews is one of the few B&B's that still accept one night bookings (without a two night penalty)....Our tariff of $90 PER ROOM PER NIGHT, (including private bathroom, continental breakfast, off-road parking & all charges) remains the SAME GREAT VALUE as per our December '02 opening. We're not suitable however,for children under teen years,

Cromarty Bay Road, Soldiers Point, is regarded as the 'quiet' part of the "Bay" and certainly not affected by the hustle and bustle of Christmas, Easter, and other holiday periods... With tree-lined beachfront reserve right across the road, (great fishing) and national park-lands either side..Bayviews also makes a great place to 'base' your Port Stephens stay...We're just 2 hours easy drive north of Sydney, with easy access to the Hunter wineries and vineyards, Barrington Tops rainforest, Morpeth town markets, and, Newcastle and Maitland is only 30-45 minutes away.

Check out our ratings & reviews online, and keep us in mind If your heading north or south on the Pacific Highway, as we make a ideal stopover with quick and easy access to/from the freeway... And also now that the new Hunter Expressway cross-link is opened, if your heading west across the state...

We're minutes to:- Horizons NSW Open Golf Course, marinas, sand & surf beaches, cinemas, restaurants, Bowling/RSL Clubs, Dolphin/Whalewatch cruises...4WD sand dune board surfing & fishing...
Great day trips to:- Morpeth markets and antique shops (Australia's first inland port). Hunter Valley wineries & vineyards, para-gliding/hot-air ballooning, ferry rides to Tea Gardens/Hawks Nest...FighterTown museum at Williamstown, scuba-diving, Barramundi farm and restaurant...

Accommodation was lovely, beautifully decorated and so clean.

Accommodation was lovely, beautifully decorated and so clean. We had the use of the small lounge area and bedroom, with our own bathroom. There was an internal stairway that linked the owners, but we were given our own space and felt very comfortable in the accommodation. Continental breakfast was also fantastic, with lots of choice and more than we could eat. The owners are lovely and spent time welcoming us and sharing their local knowledge of the area. We highly recommend this property, it is excellent value for money and a lovely, relaxed location – we will be back. Thanks George and Christine.

A night away

We were made feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. Chris is an exceptional artist and ever wall is tastefully covered with her work. George and Christine were extremely friendly and made our stay very enjoyable' The only minor downside was the steepness of the driveway which for older folk could cause an access issue. Not withstanding that I'm 84 and with a little help coped quite well.

Perfect B&B

A real gem of a place. George and Chris were the perfect hosts and the B&B lived up to all expectations. The bed and living areas were comfortable, the area was quiet, the breakfasts were sufficient with some special touches of chocolates and muffins. George and Chris were happy to chat and also happy to give us our own space. Special mention to Chris' artworks throughout the house and the gardens were a delight. Above all, the value of the stay was second to none.

Soldiers Point B&B

The property is just magnificent. George greeted us at the door when we arrived and was very helpful during our stay, very welcoming. Christine's paintings are world class. Very quiet area and the Soldiers Point Bowling Club not far away, is the most friendliest club I've been in out of my area. If I'm going to be in that area again I will definitely book to stay here, if it's available. Ann

Faultless and Flawless

First time booking with Stayz. Truly exceeded even my highest hopes from the great communication prior, to the warm welcome and mind blown with value for money. Beautiful rooms, great privacy, lovely location. The most generous and welcoming hosts with great local knowledge. Not to mention comfy bed and scrumptious breakfast! Close to everything coastal, but maintaining a gorgeous and private retreat. Nothing not to love and will be back with reinforcements. Most highly recommended

It was clear right away this was the perfect place and ticked all the boxes for me. Extremely clean, presentable and welcoming. Crisp sheets, fluffy towels and a very generous breakfast with plenty of choice and in a beautiful room. Close to Bannisters and the beach. We will certainly stay again while we visit family in the area.
