About the host

Your host

Having first fallen in love with the Shoal Bay and Port Stephens in 2019, whilst holidaying with friends, followed up with frequent visits to this beautiful location, we now consider ourselves Shoal Bay regulars and love getting away for a restful break from our busy lives and home town of Melbourne when we can.

Sophie is an architect and design manager working for a residential apartment developer and Tom is a landscaper by trade who owns and operates his own small business.
We’re both quite active people and both love the outdoors, for Soph it’s running and long walks in new and unfamiliar destinations, for Tom it’s getting out on their boat, bikes and enjoys spearfishing when he can.

Why they chose this property

We love to travel, most of our holidays are spent by a beach somewhere or up a mountain for a ski trip. With all of this comes a fair bit of time spent in accommodation and a sense of wanting to offer our own experience to guests.

In 2022 we find ourselves purchasing two accommodation units to do exactly that.
We invite you to come and stay at our home away from home, and hope you too enjoy your stay here in Shoal Bay. Som House vilas are very special to us as our desire is that all members of the family have a great time and that guests can feel happy knowing that their 4-legged loved ones are safe and secure. Our villas ensure that it is a 'home away from home' and dogs are most welcome inside. All linen is provided as well as pantry supplies to start your stay.

What makes this property unique

Our villas are comfortable, welcoming and located close to all the activities that Port Stephens has to offer including dog friendly beaches and parks. Enjoy the many beaches and waterways; swim, sunbake or read a book in the sun; take a dolphin or whale cruise; wander along the many walking trails; relax in quiet corners; enjoy the coffee shops, restaurants and speciality shops and simply relax and enjoy!
