The apartment was in a lovely location, with great water views and fabulous sunrises & sunsets. It had a fully equipped kitchen and the lounge room, bedrooms & bathroom were a great size. Best of all, the host (Steve) was most welcoming and made us feel very at home. We will definitely be back if we're ever in Newcastle again.

Great Place to Stay in Newcastle

A really nice place with great views of the ocean. The binoculars provided allowed us to see whales from the front window. Lots of room, great facilities, comfy beds and a friendly host who went over and beyond to make our stay pleasant. Highly recommended.

The accommodation was large, clean, and part of a larger, beautiful property. We had everything we needed. Communication with the host was fantastic. The location was within easy drive to the beautiful Dudley beach and to restaurants and pubs.The only critique was that the place was a little dated and the view was slightly obscured by a fence. However, you could still see through the fence to the beautiful view.

Perfect place to getaway

This place everything we needed. The house location is perfect for overlooking the ocean to see the sun rise from the backyard. The moonlight over the ocean is breath taking. The bed were comfortable and the heated beds made it heavenly in winter. We also met Steve the host and he is a great guy to deal with. Will definitely come back spring and summer.

Relaxing and comfortable

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in Steve's apartment. The apartment was spacious, clean and comfortable and the view from the patio over the trees to the ocean -- glorious! The location is very quiet and peaceful, with easy access to Redhead Beach & coffee shops and under 15 minutes to Mereweather baths by car. It's also close to the Fernleigh Track. Steve was friendly and welcoming.

About the host

Hosted by Steve Souris

Host profile image
I’m a retired shopkeeper and I enjoy being a Superhost because I appreciate people from all walks of life.

Why they chose this property

I built on this virgin block of land in 1982 because my wife and I were instantly attracted to the Pacific Ocean and the forest in the foreground. The seclusion by having such an expansive “backyard”, and being a significant distance from the road and footpath. Peaceful.

What makes this property unique

- Two specific car parks available for Guests.
- A spacious home.
- Privacy.
- A wonderful view of the ocean.
- Spaces for children to play ball games.
- A two meter high brick fence which helps to keep a ball within the boundary.
- Gardens and an outdoor fishpond.
