Guest Reviews
- Wendy (10/5): Great getaway with friends. - Amazing holiday home. Every detail considered. Very comfortable. Great location. Walking distance to Shoal Bay. Nothing
- Rebecca (10/5): - Perfect place to lie low and rest for a few days 😊
- Julia (1/5): Worst experience of my life. - The property itself was ok, albeit a bit dirty. I didn’t like that the owner didn’t disclose living onsite, and that his entrance was in a space that was supposed to be private. I had to empty his washing from the dryer that was supposed to be a private space also. It isn’t.He did very loud renovation work in our time there from early morning.
- Kerry (10/5): - everything
- Kerry (9/5): Beautiful peaceful little break from home - It was a beautiful space and peaceful, bonus of having kitchen space to be able to cook
Close to all the main beaches and attractions
- Amy (9/5): -
- Sahibpreet (10/5): -
- Jahan (10/5): - I loved the peaceful setting and the Balinese-style design — it felt really relaxing and private. The room were spacious, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed. The outdoor area and garden were perfect for unwinding, and it was close to the beach and shops, which made it super convenient.
- Chola (10/5): - The entire place was clean and comfortable. The host was very welcoming and kept us informed about everything we needed to know. The location was convenient and accessible to everything we needed. Will definitely be returning in the future.
- Gloria (10/5): Peaceful private paradise - Everything Nothing I didn’t like

- Vanessa (10/5): - Super relaxing and clean , my husband and I enjoyed our getaway ! can’t wait to come back
Thank you grant
- Fiona (10/5): Perfect - Bali at the Bay is a hidden treasure. As soon as you walk in, you feel like you are in paradise. The decor is absolutely stunning, beds so comfortable and you have everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. The outdoor kitchen is the best I have ever seen. The spa is very private and the villa is central to everything. We have stayed here twice now and we will definitely be back !

- Stuart (8/5): Very good -
- Justin (1/5): Disappointing Money refunded - Sorry to say after booking the property and arriving only to find out it had been double booked earlier that day by the owner Grant , problem being he had not taken it off as available so we were left without a place until we found Oaks Port Stephens Pacific Blue Resort who looked after us so well we would recommend staying with them .
Disappointing Money refunded in full by Grant but should never have happened being double booked

- Phillip (8/5): nice and handy to restaurants and beach - the overall aesthetic no comfortable chairs to relax on all chairs were very straight backed and rigid especially outside

cobwebs. and no screens on windows and doors

- Verified traveler (10/5): - An amazing place. Stayed for 2 nights in complete comfort and serenity.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We loved everything about our weekend away at Bali in the Bay! The whole apartment was spotless when we arrived. There was yummy wine and beer on arrival and we couldn't stop admiring all the small, intricate details in the woodwork and furnishings. The Joglo room is an exceptional addition to an already exceptional property. You must explore the room at night time with no lights on, you'll get a wonderful surprise. We're already booking our return visit. Can't wait to go back. Thank you Grant & Jenni for a weekend we won't forget.
- jessica (8/5): Great experience at bali in the bay - Bali in the bay is close to the beach and to the town centre shops. Bali in the bay offers a spacious, comfy, relaxing and luxurious place to stay.
- Sandy (8/5): Nicely away from main town, and close to beach - Secluded enough away from the hustle bustle of town, but close enough to walk or ride to all the activity valuable in Shoal bay.
Lots of various bits of info including things to see and do available for Port Stephens and surrounds.
Kitchen well supplied with cooking facilities if required and adequate coffee and amenities.
Loved the Champagne and bintang in the fridge and muesli for the first morning!
- Jo (10/5): Balinese themed apartment- great location. - We enjoyed our short stay at Bali at the Bay.
The owners go the extra mile to ensure their guests comfort including complimentary drinks in the fridge and breakfast items provided.
Unfortunately, we did not have great weather whilst we were there and found it a bit dark, but this may be a positive if the sun is blazing outside! Also, as a family of 4 we would have appreciated a little more surface storage for our personal items in Bathroom and Bedrooms.
Would highly recommend.
- Verified traveler (10/5): amazing - amazing
- Hayley and Jay (10/5): 10 year Anniversary Getaway - We absolutely loved our stay at "Bali at the Bay". The Nirwana apartment was immaculate and the perfect choice for a romantic stay. Loved all the small details from the incense, to the bath robes, candles and the Balinese decorations. Jenni the host was so welcoming at check in. Would highly recommend to all. We will definitely be back!
- Jeff (10/5): Beautiful Apartment close to beach - Very relaxing stay at the beautifully furnished apartment. Particularly enjoyed the large spa bath. Recommended.
- david (10/5): Loved it! - This is a beautifuly presented 2 br apartment in a great location. 2 min walk to the beach, cool inside on a 40 degree C day!! Bed was great, pod coffee, a bottle of champagne on arrival. We'd certainly return!!
Also tried the hot n cold seafood platter from one of their recommended restaurants - would feed 4 and was superb!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Relaxing Balinese getaway - We stayed at the Nirwana apartment (upstairs) and it was beautiful and so relaxing! There's a gorgeous beach at the end of the street (only a 2min walk!) Bali at the bay is also closely located to the main shops and marina (about 2km) and we comfortably walked there several times. The apartment is beautiful and reminded me of Bali. The hosts Grant and Jenni were great and allowed us a late check-out which was awesome! There's a beautiful spa too! The whole atmosphere of Bali at the bay is serenity and you don't want to leave! Highly recommend and will definetly be back!
- Brenden (10/5): Next time we will stay a week - Absolutely perfect. Bed was very comfortable can't say enough. Was truly wonderful
- thumbs up (10/5): Great! - Stayed 3 nights with wife and 11 month old son. Awesome place to stay, owners are very friendly and accomadating, close walk to beach, all fixings are premium! Comfy beds, Netflix on tv, good wifi, a very positive experience!!!
- Annette (10/5): A little slice of Heaven - Bali at the Bay was a little slice of Heaven that was so relaxing and enjoyable. Everything was neat and tidy with additional extras that are not in most other retreats. For example, flowers and candles in every room, a two person spa, separate bedrooms, a good fitted out kitchen, several verandahs to either lay around or sit and take in the surroundings and a two minute walk to the beach etc. It was a self contained unit that was well fitted out in a Balinese theme, so it felt like a Bali retreat right here in our own back yard. The atmosphere was peaceful and calming, so it was a wonderful retreat to get away and relax. Plus there was so much to do close by - if you wanted to venture out. I would certainly recommend it to anyone and I will certainly be back again.
- Bev (10/5): Better than Bali! - The ambience was wonderful and the cooking facilities superb.
Nothing could be faulted except that we had the downstairs unit and had a bit of trouble with noise from above.
- Peter (10/5): We loved it - Super place... All it needs is a little splunge pool and make the window in the bathroom an out door shower...
- Big M (10/5): Great little Balinese house near the beach. - We went there for a wedding anniversary, and literally just relaxed! The entire house has been built around genuine Balinese timbers and artifacts, which really adds to the relaxing ambiance. There are the usual facilities: kitchen, air con, huge bathroom, etc, as well as an outside barbeque.
- Ash and Liz (10/5): Idylic Location and Relaxing Place to stay - Wonderful expereince in a gorgeous house with superb Bai style decor compelmented by the leafy setting opposite bushland with native birds and 2 minute walk to Shoal Bay beach.
- Therese (10/5): Birthday weekend away - Despite the weather, we had an awesome weekend away. We were able to go on walks, explore the surrounding area by car, enjoy the food and the views and just relax in comfortable, serene surroundings.
- Tea (10/5): -
This place is just beautiful
