Our family of four stayed for 10 nights and loved our stay at the eco cottage with hot tub. The peaceful native bush surrounding s and friendly possum visitors in the evenings kept all entertained. The owners were fabulous and accommodating. Great walking distance to beach. Would definitely return back for a holiday. We all felt recharged after our holiday

Last night we stayed in the tree top cabin, it was spacious, clean, and the sheets where amazing. We had our own possum that I hand feed on the deck while drinking the amazing port that was complimentary with our stay. When it was time to go I felt rested and relaxed I loved our night away we will be back very soon.

Everything about this place is amazing! What a beautiful experience, highly recommend for those parents wanting a romantic getaway ❤️ the owners and staff are amazing, they care about the environment around them, the possum visitors last night was epic! So bloody cute! Don’t get me start on the hot tub indoor and out! Wow! Love love love this place! Coming much more often more people need to know about this! Honestly the best get away I’ve had in my 29 years of life! Brand new mattress was the goods! Cleanest linen and the robes are so soft and smell amazing! Cant wait

Very quiet place surrounded by trees. A good 5 minute drive out of town, 10-15 min walk to the beach. If it's been raining forget it, the "beach track" (which you still have to cross a main road) becomes a quagmire. Cabin could use some upgrades for the price charged. Sleeps 9 but extra guests get charged extra per night (when there is 9 guests or less) for some strange reason.

Wow! Wanderers Retreat is such a beautiful oasis. My best friend and I took a weekend trip out to Port Stephens, and stayed here for two nights in one of the Treehouses. The room was beautiful, and it quickly became our cosy home away from home. We read books, drank wine and had a few special visits from Australian wildlife. We will definitely be back in the summer to do it all over again!

Pros: Cute basic cabin. Heater works great. Couches and bed average to good comfort wise. Hot tub was wonderful. Staff extremely helpful and polite. Close to great beaches,wale watching and excellent restaurants!
Cons: Sheets feel like cardboard. Kitchen wasn’t thoroughly cleaned,upon arrival. (Stove knobs dirty from previous guests cooking eggs?) Not much privacy at ALL around hot tub. Cabins close to each other. Check out time is 10am, however a maintenance man woke us up around 8am fiddling with the hot tub on the front porch.
A basic cabin for a basic stay.
But for a romantic getaway?
