Guest Reviews

• Ian & Melanie (10/5): Perfect weekend - The Ranch was more than we expected. We had an extended family weekend catch-up and was surprised how well equipped the accommodation was, it even had games for our grandchildren. It’s a large property (5 double bedrooms) with fully self catering kitchen with and a lovely open living room ensuring our family got space and relaxation they needed. We spent time at beautiful Anna Bay beach and local shops. Our family of 12 were all impressed with the accommodation and location. It was perfect for us. If we need a family weekend away in the near future I would definitely book this again. We liked everything.
• Clara (5/5): - Good position Was a bit dirty and we didn't have gas when we turned up to cook dinner after travelling for hours....also had to rush to check out which was hard when you have a lot of people to pack up and it says check out between 10 to 12
• Rebecca (8/5): - Very clean and the beds and bedsheets were very comfortable. The kids loved the fooseball table and other games available like the bocce and bowling pins. The garden was getting landscaped when we stayed. Not a problem as the kids loved exploring the huge backyard, but would have liked a heads up about it. Otherwise we had a great stay!
• SeyedRasool (10/5): Perfect stay, highly recommended - Comfortable and nice Backyard was amazing
• Rishav (10/5): -
• Lin (10/5): -
• Jemma (6/5): Pleasant stay. A few issues during our stay with the water system and air conditioning in one of the rooms. However the - Modern and neat decor. There was a BBQ and outdoor covered area. Washing machine and dryer. Needed blinds in the back end of the house which is open to dining and kitchen open space area. It got very hot. Ceiling fans or aircon needed in living/lounge space as well. However host mentioned they are installing duct aircon in the near future.
• Jobin (10/5): - Loved the cleanliness and openness
• Amy (10/5): Highly recommend, excellent communication from the host, perfect location for where we needed. - Beautiful home, very comfortable stay for our large family group. Current working happening but our expectations were fully met. Lots of room for the kids to run around and we had a great game of cricket…. Lots of laughs and lots of treasured memories made.
• Juan (9/5): -
• Elisha (9/5): Perfect for a big group of family and friends getaway. Didn’t have to worry about neighbours getting disturbed. - The space, the vibe, the facilities Only 2 toilet/bathroom for a whole villa with 5 bedrooms
• Camila (10/5): Wonderful - Amazing Nothing
• Md (10/5): -
• Lee (10/5): A lovely warm, comfy Farmhouse - The Ranch is beautiful, warm and comforting place. A huge farmhouse located in the centre combined with an outdoor fire-pit area where you can enjoy the outside privately. An amazing wide window view of the outdoor from the dinning table. Perfect for a small group of family and friends that wants to have a short, or long vacation. Nothing that we didn’t like about the place. There were only a few minor concern that needs to be addressed. •One of the bedroom door could not be close. •The electric stove would have been better if it was a gas stove. • The drive path was muddy but due to heavy rains, but other than that, I have no complain
• Shane (10/5): Great family friendy house - Great house with plenty of room for everyone. The host was very easy to deal with Lot of mud outside due to a pool being dug in. Totally understandable due to the weather tho. The place will even be better once the pool is completed.
• Anamika (10/5): - Loved everything other than the stove. Will still rate it 10/10. Electric stove..super slow to heat
• Shae (10/5): - Amazing, property
• bendall (4/5): - The open-plan setting of the house was very welcoming and relaxing. Nice sunsets. The grassed areas were more swamp than usable yard. Quite a few janky or broken kitchen items ( stove cook top pretty much unusable ) Only two rolls of TP Festoon lighting over outdoor firepit did not work. The main road and service station was extremely noisey but not louder than the neighbour who blasted festival volume beats and music from 9am all day to 3 am in the morning on Friday, Saturday. We all felt misled by the property listing, but this highlights what budget big house entails.
• Lili (10/5): A great stay for big families, lots of space, comfortable rooms - Spacious rooms and living areas
• Luther (10/5): Exceptional -
• Neeraj (10/5): Peaceful, secluded place for getaway - Heaps of open space and beautiful living room It was a good overall experience
• Anju (9/5): Overall good stay, value for money, will come back. - The house was spacious, clean, well maintained and good option for short stay with friends and family. Cooking hot plate, fire pit was bit far and no walking path to walk, One more bathroom/toilet could have been much comfortable.
• Germaine (8/5): Very good - Spacious home for a large group. Facilities provided were good. Lovely outlook from back of property into green space. Close to many activities and places to visit. Staff replied promptly when messaged. Staff returned to property to provide high chair and additional keys on request. Dining area was very warm due to no blinds on large windows. The sunken lounge was unsafe for guests with low mobility and young children. In fact, we had several of the adults also trip due to low contrast between black floor and black step.
• Joshua (10/5): Was a lovely pleasant stay. - Wide open space to suit all of us inside. Location was close to alot of activities The rain could have staid away. And the mosquito's could have been biting less.
• Tina (10/5): Just book it - The rooms were spacious and accommodated all 12 of us. The living area and dining area is large and seated all of us comfortably. Large TV for our movie night - stan/netflix/prime all included. We especially loved that there are no properties around the residence. So peaceful and could stay up for laughs late. Didn't see any kangaroos in the morning
• Danielle (7/5): Great size house, needs to have a bit of money spent to make it decent though - Great size house, fit the family very comfortably A lot of cockroaches and the place needs a LOT of work. Would have been nice to have clean windows etc. I had to remove spiders webs from outside the entry, doors, windows before the remainder of the guests arrived as I was embarrassed.
• Sujan (8/5): Had so much fun refreshing, calm greenery enough land to play games - Location, ambience
• Lisa (8/5): Very good -
• D-loon (9/5): Great spacious place for a get-away with your family. Easily accommodated our group of 8. - The house is so spacious! It is located away from the main road, so it is quiet. The house is surrounded by a big open space/garden. Not too far from Nelson Bay if you have a car.
• Karina (8/5): Very good - Great space, lots of room. Really enjoyable Lawn wasn't mowed prior to our stay
• Rahul (9/5): Superb -
• A (9/5): Superb -
• Jessica (10/5): Amazing. - The property was stunning, beautiful venue for pre wedding activities and photos Could do with some full length/big mirrors in living space! This would be a nice addition
• Shrestha (9/5): Superb -
• Veronica (9/5): Superb -
• Jin (10/5): Exceptional - I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful facility, and I couldn't be more pleased with my experience. From the moment I arrived, I felt at home in the cozy and beautifully maintained surroundings. The facility was not only comfortable but also had a charming atmosphere that made my stay incredibly enjoyable. The host was exceptional – warm, welcoming, and always ready to assist with any needs or questions I had. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and inviting place to stay. None
• Megan (7/5): Lovely vibe, loads of room, will be a stunning property when finished. - Lots of space very comfortable. Great comfy vibe 😄 The cooking facilities were a little lacking, need some good non stick pans. Nothing to cook eggs in that wouldn’t stick. One of our group said one of the bed slats must be broken as her bed had a slump in it … sorry I don’t know which room she was in.
• Joanne (10/5): Exceptional - Clean comfy
• Sapkota (10/5): Exceptional -
• Meng (10/5): Exceptional - Highly recommended！ Very beautiful house.
• Ravi (10/5): Exceptional - Location, house itself and outdoor There is nothing to mention.
• Daphne (9/5): Superb - The place was very clean. Although the location is not exactly in the middle of port stephens, it is only a short drive to anna bay. The house overall was spacious and comfortable. The owner was very helpful and responsive. My family and I are very satisfied with our stay. The aircon at two of the bedrooms didnt have the cooling function, but was alright at night due to temperature drop outside
