Oaks Lure

I recently stayed at Oaks Nelson Bay Lure Suites while travelling for work and had a really enjoyable experience. The location is excellent, with easy access to the marina, restaurants and local shops, making it convenient to unwind after a day of work. The apartment was spacious, clean and well presented, with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was comfortable, the room was quiet, and having kitchen facilities was a real bonus during a business trip. The staff were friendly and welcoming throughout my stay, and check-in and check-out were quick and hassle-free. Overall, I found it to be great value for money and would happily stay here again when I'm next in Port Stephens for work. I'd also recommend it to anyone visiting the area for either business or a relaxing getaway.

Highly recommend Oaks Friendly service and great location Close to shops and food. Great value as well.

A comfortable stay with a fantastic layout for larger groups This stay was comfortable, and the rooms offered a really strategic setup for bigger families or groups. With a split‑level layout, you arrive into a private foyer — the perfect space to leave beach gear, shoes, and all the bits and pieces before entering the main areas. Two rooms provided two separate sleeping arrangements, which is ideal when travelling with multiple people with 2x bathrooms and toilet. 🛏️ Upper Level One bedroom offering 1x King or 2x Singles (you can request singles before arrival). A combined shower and toilet. A mini kitchen with microwave, fridge, complimentary hot beverages, and milk. Great for anyone wanting privacy or a quieter sleeping space. 🍽️ Lower Level (accessed by internal staircase ONLY) A larger living area with combined living + dining. A full kitchen with all inclusions — perfect for a home‑away‑from‑home stay. A huge back bedroom with a Queen bed, but honestly, this room is massive. You could easily fit 2x Queens in here. If you need extra bedding, be sure to ask (there is a charge, but the space absolutely allows for it). The lounge also folds out into a bed. All up, this two‑level setup could comfortably host a family of six, with room to move and everyone having their own space. 🌿 Location & Facilities The location is close to the main boardwalk of Nelson Bay, making it easy to explore. There are no meal options onsite, so plan to dine out or use the full kitchen. Parking is included and accessed via a swipe‑entry gated carpark under the hotel. You can walk to the main street, but it is very hilly, so keep mobility needs in mind. There is a small pool onsite for a quick dip. Fresh air is easily accessible via the balcony, which is a lovely touch. ✔️ Overall Our stay here was comfortable and would suit a larger family perfectly. The space, the layout, and the flexibility make it great value at this price point. Clean, practical, and well‑designed for travellers who need room to spread out.
