Guest Reviews
- Polly (10/5): - walking distance to shops and the room is cosy and clean.
recommendable!
- Kiah (10/5): Holiday in Salamander Bay - Room is clean, tidy and has a well equipped kitchenette. Room has all amenities a traveller needed.
With only four rooms and no children allowed, the hotel is very quiet and suits couples taking a break or business travellers.
Lynne the proprietor is very friendly and helpful. There is a vegetable garden where guests can help themselves with the produce.
Happy to come back and stay again.
- Bill (10/5): - Wonderful - Quiet and well sized room. Beach is across the road.
Great BBQ and pool area - and one that can be enjoyed as adults only. :) :)
Shame we only stayed the one night - We will be back!
- Gillian (10/5): Great 'getaway' retreat - very well placed away from the hustle and bustle of the main centre but close enough to everything and the bay is literally just across the road. Very comfortable, quiet and plenty of room. No service due to COVID but the owners are on site and only a phone call away if you need it. Lovely garden area and pool right outside the door.
- Melissa (10/5): - The room was very nice and clean. Lots of room. The shower had the best water pressure. Would def stay again.
- Richard (8/5): - It was a very comfortable place to stay at.
- Verified traveler (10/5): -
Lovely, large room, beautifully furnished with everything we could want.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great value central to everything and the owners were most helpful I have dealt with.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Owners are amazing! Nice pool, close to shops. Beach across the road. Nice and quiet.
Wish it was cleaner. Towels look a bit old, fridge and curtains a bit dirty.
- Deb (10/5): - Close to the beach and the onsite pool is beautiful. Love how you have everything you need in one room. Great set up.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Friendly and lovely place to stay. Will definitely be back!

- Verified traveler (8/5): - Clean and tidy. Very quiet and room we stayed in was located to the rear of the property. Although we didn't use the BBQ area, it was well appointed with pleasant surrounds and close to the pool. Very friendly greeting on arrival and explanation of local amenities (cafes, restaurants, etc.).
- JohnL (10/5): - The property is quiet and centrally located for our activities. Our host, Lynn was very friendly and helpful.
A great place to stay.
- Ramon (10/5): Great place to stay - Great little four room place. Very clean and an easy walk to the small town. The room was very large with plenty of room.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Owners were extremely pleasant and helpful. Great barbecue area.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very tidy and clean roomand lovely hosts. Close to the beach, local shops and the bowling club for food and drinks. Not much to do at the place itself but great for a good stopover for a good accommodation.
- Clarence (10/5): Amazing - the host Daryl is very welcoming and friendly. the room is homely and clean.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The accommodation was clean, comfortable, quiet. No traffic noise.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location, friendly owner, clean and comfortable.
Great stay-will stay again!
- Bill (8/5): Great Location - We were welcomed by Darryl, the owner, lovely gentleman and the check-in was smooth. The property is directly opposite Wanda Beach but also has a beautiful resort style pool. Wasn't heated at this time of year which was a shame but apparently heated at other times. Very tropical bbq area with great outdoor furniture and very big bbq. The motel style room is large with timber flooring. Immaculate throughout. Complimentary juice, cereal and cookies along with the usual tea and coffee. Our only disappointment was the bed, not very comfortable and squeaky.
- Sandy (10/5): Everything was perfect :-) - This place was perfect :-) The room was comfy, clean, spacious, and had everything I needed. The grounds are very nice and well looked after, a lot of effort has gone into making both the inside and outdoor areas great.
The people are so friendly and welcoming. I would definitely stay again the next time I’m in the area.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - It was spacious and well equip special little extras, very clean . Great shower friendly Host
- Verified traveler (8/5): - A family like atmosphere and we felt at home.
The accommodation is a very pleasant place without being ostentatious
- Verified traveler (10/5): - A wonderful relaxing stay. Having only 4 rooms the accommodation was quiet and peaceful. A nice get away without the noise of large groups or children. Bbq facilities were great.
Darryl and Lynn were great hosts.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice accommodation close to the beach and nice pool.
- Bill (10/5): - Darryl & Lynne are fantastic, the facility is great, our room # 1 overlooked the Pool wit a small garden out side. its 700mts from Bannister's and about the same from the village, the Village has a good Pizza eatery, Bottle shop a coffee shop plus a Thai, & Chinese
- Christine (10/5): - My Mum and I thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay. Darryl and Lyn made extra efforts to accommodate us on the ground floor, as my elderly Mum isn't so good with stairs anymore. We enjoyed the pool and BBQ, with Darryl lending some kind assistance on Sat night to help me start the gas on the BBQ.
The room was spacious, very comfortable, clean and quiet. We heard no traffic at all or the other guests. Darryl let us also use some spinach from their lovely garden. Will definitely return to this otherwise tucked-away piece of paradise and relaxation.
- TERENCE L (10/5): - Very good accommodation was clean and well presented.It was a pleasant outlook with a poolside aspect.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hotel, close to the beach - Very nice and enjoyable stay. Verry quite place. Definately recommed this place to friends and family.
- Peter (8/5): Salamander getaway - We had the apartment on the first floor which had lots of light and space, whereas the others were ground floor and seemed quite confined. Walking past the other rooms between the swimming pool, was a little off -putting, but they were out most of the time. The beach is not visible but across the road, and the little shopping center is 100M away. Great Thai or fish and chips. All other activities you need your car.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Beautiful place to stay. Unfortunately the room cleaning service came when we were still in the room, but then never came back to clean the room later or fill up the light breakfast for the next morning. Otherwise, great room, service & location.
- Megan (10/5): Must stay if visiting Port Stephens - Really beautiful place and the owners are lovely. Very accomodating and friendly. Some great advice for spots to go and take some photos in the local area.
- JohnL (10/5): Close to beach and amenities. - A very comfortable and spacious unit. Well fitted out.
- G (6/5): One night - A beautiful room & peaceful surrounding gardens. However would be a nice touch to be able at least have a biscuit with s cuppa after a long trip.
Battery for acon & tv were both flat ! Finally not everyone can drink local town water a simple chesp bottle of water provided would have been nice also.
Value for money on our stsy 6/10.
- Disappointed (2/5): Disappointing service - Arrived to be turned away as we had a baby, had not classified him as an adult so unaware they didn't take children when booking for 1 night only. Spoken to rudely and spoken over the top of. Accused of trying to be sneaky when an honest mistake was made. Would not recommend based on service experienced.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Very clean and quiet - Very clean and quiet, close to beach and where I was attending a wedding
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Not 4 star as described. Comfortable enough but very basic.
- David (10/5): Just across the road from the beach - Great day.Pool looks great at night and just the right temp.
- Zaizhe (8/5): Convenient location and a good stay! - It was pretty good.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Perfect - Every thing I needed and very pleasant staff. Clean and very comfortable room.
- Charlie (10/5): A chance to revisit Port Stephens - After 30 plus years my wife and I decided to revisit Port Stephens on our way home to Coffs Harbour. Our host was welcoming and helpful and the room was huge. Not only was there a kettle, cups and tea/coffee, but also a toaster, cutlery, microwave, bread and butter, jam, cereal and milk. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will return.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great friendly service would recommend. Perfect location.
- Bob (4/5): Not what wasexpected - Room was not clean. Floors had not been swept or washed (sticky bits of food and hair). There was no butter left for the toast. Need to put a cloth in the rooms to either wash up or wipe down benches. TV wasn't working and had to get owner to bring in a smaller one.b
- Angela (10/5): perfect little getaway - We absolutely loved it! Perfect location and ambience for that quick get away we were after.. can't wait to come back... and Denise was awesome... no questions left unanswered
- Verified traveler (10/5): Home away from home - Loved our stay here . Friendly staff, great room , and location is handy to all services
- Joyce (8/5): All we needed - We could only stay for one night, but the staff was great and the room was all we needed. We would be happy to use this again, when we are next in the area.
- John (8/5): Pleasant hotel close to the Bay and shops - Over all O.K I would use this hotel again , good location great room
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Big room, pleasantly surprised by how big and clean and close to beach, only 10 minutes from Nelson Bay - great spot
- Richard (10/5): Great holiday - Nice relaxing place to stay short walk to the shops and beach and off street parking.
- tim (6/5): Nice room - Pool was not clean ,coffee not topped up....otherwise nice.
- Ron (10/5): Our Stat at Salamander Beach - Upon arrival we were greeted by our host and taken to our room ...the room was clean ,tidy and very well appointed...throughout our stay , our host was very helpful with a few enquiries that we made which made our stay that much more enjoyable
- paul (10/5): Lovely room. Really big - Great room. Really big. Looked exactly like the picture. Owner was lovely. Will go back again.
- Verified traveler (4/5): The owner is lovely, but the accom is tired. Sorry - These rooms are part of the owner's house, which in itself is not a problem. The rooms are around the back of the property and offer a degree of privacy. However they are getting tired. The decor, bathroom, and general layout is not what i would call four stars (as the overall rating appeared to be on Expedia), nor what the modern traveler expects these days for a property with this rating. It looks in need of a freshen up..the last one i estimate would be a decade ago. But the owner is lovely, there is a basic breakfast provided, but i would have expected the tea/coffee to be topped up on our second day there, and milk really should be in an airtight container of some type (preferably glass), not an open steel jug. Sorry, only small things, but they are what a customer remembers...the little touches. Also there is no view. Not that one is advertised, but just in case you're wondering, as its location is right beside the bay.
- vanessa (10/5): Lovely accomodation and wonderful staff - Denise was just lovely. The place feels like home.
- Greg (8/5): Very conveniently located - Very friendly and communicative staff and a very spacious room
- ian (8/5): Great value. Lovely place. - Delightful room. Sort of a cross between a B & B and hotel. There are just 3 rooms in a private home. The room I had was large, clean and very comfortable.
The owner was pleasant and helpful.
The location was good. Close to club and pub for meals.
My stay was business related but would definately recommend
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The property was very homely and comfortable. It rained for half our trip so we stayed indoors. and it was very nice.
