H3 Port Stephens - Absolute Waterfront Luxury

H3 Port Stephens is a luxurious waterfront duplex located on the absolute beachfront in Corlette. H3 is located on a picturesque white, sandy beach with breathtaking views over the glistening waters of Port Stephens harbour. This exclusive alcove has calm, protected waters making it ideal for children, relaxing dips and water activities. H3 sleeps up to eight guests (MAX 6 adults).

H3’s classic architecture and elegant, yet relaxed, coastal style exudes opulent beach house vibes. Cook up holiday feasts on the terrace BBQ while you watch glorious sunsets over the water. There’s a lovely strip of grassy verge between H3 and the sand, perfect for picnics and games with the kids. The beach is idyllic and being a harbour-side beach, and protected from the prevailing winds in summer, the calm water is perfect for kids of all ages. The children will be entertained for hours building sandcastles, swimming and playing games on the beach and grass.

On the ground floor the open plan lounge, dining and fully equipped kitchen all overlook the beach and blue waters. The living and dining room flow out to a large alfresco entertaining terrace, with BBQ, dining table and sun lounges. The terrace has a few steps down to the grassy reserve and the enticing sand of the beach is just metres away. There’s also a powder room on the ground level and an outdoor shower.

Expensive stay ! Not value for money
Great location! Lovely beach front. Family Had a good break . Dishwasher did not work properly and leaked all over the floor. Had to manually wash up . Small dirty oven . Reviews said very clean. Not clean. Most dishes in draws were chipped and not functional as were glass. Could not cook due to dirty oven. Dirty dishes in draws . Dirty pots. Dirty showers ! Not good on holidays. I had to clean myself and mop up water from dish washer! Kitchen needs a makeover . Love the area but won’t be back to this property! Will stay at corlette beautiful spot and very relaxing. Duplex not suitable as shared access to beach and very close to other property. Not private. Feel we overpaid and deposit bond was taken much too early. 4/10 stay

Lovely long weekend
This was our third stay here over the years and as previously, we thoroughly enjoyed our time at H3. It didn’t matter that the sun wasn’t out the whole time we were always able to enjoy the space. We had lots of plans to be out for breakfasts and lunches but we enjoyed the space so much we preferred to just stay in the home and enjoy it. Our kids were on the paddle boards all weekend and enjoyed it thoroughly - thank you!

Mixed experience
Pros - stunning location - lovely house - generally very well appointed (although a king bed is desperate needed in the master bedroom at this level of accommodation) - paddle boards were an excellent inclusion Cons - there is very little privacy or sound buffering from the owners next door when you are outside - the owner’s children had an extremely loud party one afternoon/ night/ the next morning, swearing, yelling and singing drinking songs extremely loudly - this continued to some extent the next morning with loud belching, swearing and very loud conversation - we felt unable to go outside or to the water as they were so disgusting and were heckling passers by - the management company didn’t respond at all despite us ringing/ texting and emailing - the owners did eventually agree to an extra nights accommodation (which ended up not suiting our plans/ a refund for that night would have been more appropriate) but didn’t apologize despite being next door, which made us think that they weren’t overly concerned about the impact on our holiday and probably wouldn’t prevent it happening again to someone else - given that there are lots of rules about noise and visitors in terms of renting the property, we were fairly shocked that this happened Overall, a really lovely place to visit and we would book again if we could be guaranteed that there wouldn’t be any parties next door.

Great location
Great property location being right in front of the water, which is convenient for the kids. No effort required for them to have a good time. The only criticism is the house needs a printed house manual as there's lots of switches and remotes for fans, which is confusing. Also couldn't figure out how to use the grill in the oven.

Fantastic holiday house
We had a terrific time. The kids would wake up and play in the beach still in their pyjamas. Dinners on the back balcony under cover overlooking the water. Paddle boards are provided which were great fun, many hours spent on the water into the evening. The house had a great feel and could easily accommodate our two families (8 people).

Relaxing and beautiful
H3 was such a beautiful home. It was extremely clean, beds comfortable, and all kitchen appliances available. It was perfect being on the beach for our little ones with the sand and the still waters. Pelican feeding out the front of H3 was a hit for the kids. It was so peaceful looking out at the scenery and boats whilst sitting in the loungeroom or out at the outdoor dining area. It was beautifully decorated as well. We will return. Thank you.

We simply love the house, its location, its minimalist and modern look. Everything looks bright and clean. Our kids definitely love the beach right by the door. And our husbands definitely love their stand up paddling sesh in the afternoon and morning. Alex has been an amazing host for us. So, thank you!

Breath taking views in a calm, serene setting!
Spent an incredible week at H3 in January 2021! Super easy check in process with prompt communication by the hosts. Feeling really relaxed after our holiday, as H3 is a great place to recharge and rejuvenate, the sunrises and sunsets simply take your breath away! It’s a picture perfect setting and sitting on the veranda sipping your tea/ coffee while watching the boats on the water was a truly remarkable experience! Great convenient location as Salamander Bay shoppping centre is a 3 minute drive with Woolworths, K-Mart, Target as well as a food court! MacDonalds, KFC and petrol stations are also located next to the shopping centre. Nelson Bay, Shoal Bay are only a short 10-12 minute drive away. Lovely amenities provided with the property, pleasantly surprised that so many of the things on my shopping list ( dish washer tablets, dishwashing liquid, paper towel roll, cling film, foil) were already provided plus a well stocked pantry containing sauces, olive oil, spices as well as tea and coffee condiments. Fantastic idea to have an outdoor shower to wash off the sand from the beach. The inclusion of Stand up paddle boards x2 was greatly appreciated and utilised by my whole family ( including my 9 year old) as the waters are quite shallow and calm. Thank you Alex and Shauna for being great hosts! Will definitely be back!
