About this property

Woody's Place ( Water Front )

WELCOME


Woody’s Place has a Northerly aspect and is located on the quiet waterfront of Soldiers Point, spend the morning soaking up the sun on the balcony overlooking the water ways of Port Stephens and enjoy the beautiful sunrises.

Woody’s Place is a large modern waterfront duplex on the top floor, which is situated at the road level, making it easy to drive into the double garage, park the car and unload your luggage, all under cover with no stairs involved.

Catering for a quiet and relaxing family holiday, it is only ten meters from the water with a council reserve between you and the water’s edge which is a great area for the children to play. Access to the water and beach is an easy walk down the side of the house.

There is an open plan living/ dining area with a split system air conditioner, ceiling fan, Smart TV and DVD. The living area opens out onto the balcony with a gas Weber BBQ and dining facilities. Fantastic fully equipped kitchen with complete cooking facilities including electric cooktop and wall oven, microwave, family size fridge / freezer and dishwasher.

Three bedrooms with the main bedroom having a queen bed, ensuite with shower, toilet, vanity, and access to a balcony to allow the breeze to flow through. The second bedroom has a queen bed, and the third bedroom has two single beds, the owners also provide Linen and Bath towels

The main bathroom is a 3-way design giving one room with the shower and bath, one with the toilet and one having the vanity area, all these areas are wide enough for a wheelchair and the owners have provided support rails which makes this perfect for the elderly to stay.

There is also a second living area with a TV and lounge at the front of the property, this area also contains the front loader washing machine, and a clothesline is provided in the garage.
Easy Accessible Accommodation Port Stephens


Woody’s Place offers comfortable, easy accessible accommodation right on the waterfront at Soldiers Point, perfect for guests needing level access and mobility-friendly features. This thoughtfully designed 3-bedroom apartment is located on the Top floor which is at road level and caters to travellers who may have physical limitations, without compromising on location or comfort.

The entry is step-free, and the layout is open-plan for ease of movement. The bathroom is fitted with grab rails, a roll-in shower, and a height-appropriate toilet and basin, offering peace of mind and practical support for guests with mobility needs.


There’s plenty of space throughout the apartment for wheelchairs or walking frames, and parking is conveniently located close to the front door, all under cover.

Located in a peaceful, beach side part of Port Stephens, this accommodation is ideal for families, carers, and seniors looking for an accessible getaway. It’s also within easy reach of local shops, calm beaches, and attractions like Salamander Bay Square and Toboggan Hill Park. Whether you’re after a relaxing stay or a base for exploring the local area, Woody’s Place makes it possible for everyone to enjoy the stunning Soldiers Point coastline.

Woody’s Place sits right on the edge of the water at Soldiers Point, offering a peaceful and scenic spot to unwind. Step out the front door and you’re just metres from the shoreline, with uninterrupted views across the bay. It’s the kind of place where you can enjoy your morning cuppa with the sound of gentle waves and end the day watching the sun dip below the horizon in a blaze of colour.

Soldiers Point is known for its calm waters and laid-back vibe. It’s also one of the best places in Port Stephens to spot dolphins cruising close by to the shore, often right in front of the apartment. Whether you’re relaxing on the front patio or taking a slow walk along the foreshore, the natural beauty and wildlife will likely be a highlight of your stay.

This is a perfect location for those wanting a quiet getaway with the bonus of some of the best sunsets in the region. It’s peaceful, scenic, and a reminder of why people keep coming back to this part of Port Stephens
COMMENTS FROM RECENT GUESTS

Overall rating 5 out of 5
As a holiday property manager Ive seen inside hundreds of holiday rentals and know its rare to get the balance just right. The location has to be great (Woody's is waterfront reserve meaning you get the view but also the grassy space, white sandy beach is 2 mins walk with a tidal beach in front, & its 5 mins walk to park and shops), it also has to have comfortable beds and be presented clean and uncluttered. Woody's delivers on all (its spotless!), 2 bathrooms, no stairs - easy for elderly and unpacking, balcony table/chairs with large BBQ, linen is provided - basically everything that you could want on a holiday. An added plus is that the owners are on site so can offer helpful local advice, in their friendly non intrusive manner - no dealing with unanswered calls from a r/e if help is required. This really is a special place and was a real find. I'm torn between sharing the secret and keeping it to myself, but the wonderful owners deserve the recognition...so the secrets out! Woody's is the best

"What a find! Great accommodation in a great location - clean and spacious, great kitchen, great BBQ, fantastic balcony and a view to die for. Having the council reserve at the back was an added bonus - great for the kids to run around in. The kids loved hunting for yabbies at low tide and using them as bait fishing off the back wall - all within site of the balcony. We will definitely be back."

Steve,

Thanks for the great holiday, loved the house

Henk Rated 5/5

Accommodation was excellent and the web site does not do it justice. We could NOT have been better looked after. We had great access to our boat with the water right in front. The kitchen facilities were 1st class, so, much so we decided to eat in and cook up our own feast.

Hi Steve, Just a quick note to say thank you for the hospitality you afforded us on the weekend. Woody Place was the perfect place for us and we enjoyed the view from the balcony very much. We would definitely choose Woody's Place again the next time we venture up to Port Stephens. All the best,
Edwin
