Beachfront vacation rentals in Carey Bay

You want to stay here. The Sandstone Cottage has an exceptional view and an ideal location. The dwelling is well maintained, very clean and perfectly serviced. Being able to use the provided water toys and kayaks was a bonus for our kids. We found the Sandstone Cottage to be comfortable because of how familiar everything was to us, and convenient because of how the space was so sensibly laid out. There is beauty inside and outside of this house. It rocks.

Awesome place! Beautiful greenery around with a great view. The house is huge and I would stay again! Well presented house and would 100% recommend!

We had a wonderful weekend stay at this beautiful cabin! The location was perfect — right next to the lake, and just a short walk from the Indian Coffee House restaurant, which was a great bonus. The cabin itself was very well-organized, spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The peaceful surroundings and proximity to nature made it the ideal getaway. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a clean, cozy, and conveniently located retreat.

Excellent cabin in a lovely tranquil location. Great hosts with everything that you need in the cabin plus more, to have a relaxing time outside of the city. Great for fishing and beach walks, close to amentities if you need to stock up on food too.

Perfect home away from home, close to the beach. Good communication with hosts. Bicycles are a nice addition to explore the area and EV charging port is super useful too.

My son and I stayed here for a basketball trip and it was perfect for what we needed. Located close to the beach and restaurants made it so much more convenient. The apartment was clean and comfortable and well maintained. Plenty of cooking utensils and other things you don’t always remember to take with you. Jerry was also a great host. Friendly and interested and very welcoming.

House is very peaceful and beautiful surroundings. you can see sunrise from house

We had a great stay at Joanne’s place. It was right near a beautiful beach, and a short walk to great restaurants. It had everything that we needed, and a super comfy bed. Thanks for a great stay.

My partner and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. The layout was thoughtfully designed and we especially loved the rustic charm of the bed and bathroom which created such a warm, cozy atmosphere. The location was perfect, the beach accessible from the back gate of the property and although the weather was chilly, we still enjoyed a lovely picnic down there. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay, making the check-in process smooth and welcoming. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful getaway!

Nicole’s place was so beautiful. As soon as you arrive you feel right at home. It comes with everything you need and just the right amount of space. Nicole is helpful and thoughtful and since it was my first time using airbnb I was abit nervous but she made the whole process easier for me. There’s local Restuarants and grocery shops and a pub and beach all within walking distance so the location of her place and pretty much everything else is 10/10. Thank you for hosting us Nicole we hope we are able to visit again soon.

We absolutely loved staying here! It is a such a beautiful home and in a great location. So close to Avoca town centre as well as great local walks to cafes, shops and the beach. The house was beautifully kept and had everything we needed. Being so close to the lake was such an added bonus! Felicity even provided a fantastic travel cot and highchair for our little ones. It's a great place to stay both with or without kids. As a family of 5 with 3 babies we were very comfortable and really enjoyed our stay. We will certainly be back. Highly highly recommend!

We just LOVED this place. cosy, beautifully presented- with everything you could possibly need to make your stay comfortable. The only bad thing about this home was that we couldn't stay longer. We would love to come stay again in the future, if Gwendoline would have us. Thanks so much- the De Caux family 🙏 ❤️✨️

Had such a beautiful peaceful stay 🙏the house was perfect and so close to the beach. Beautiful back entertainment area also. And the host was lovely and very fast msg response! I will definitely be booking again

The whole house was just right for us. 6 adults and 2 toddlers and a baby. Hannah even offered a cot and high chair for us. She is very responsive and thoughtful. She even left some Easter surprises for us in the fridge. It was great having the outdoor balcony upstairs too so we could relax (as much as you can with little ones around) and enjoy the view. We used the house and pool a lot as the children are so young. Great location and a wonderful home.

Adrian’s place was so homely and comfortable. The beds were so soft and we didn’t want to leave that lounge! We had just the right amount of space for 4 adults and 2 kids. Adrian was very generous and thoughtful. Even leaving ice blocks in the freezer for the kids! The pool and games room was a hit with the kids. Great for the couple of rainy days we got during our stay. This was probably the most comfortable air b n b experience we’ve had. Everything ran smoothly thanks to a great host.

Had such a great stay at Ocean Gem! The apartment was lovely, clean and had everything you need. Loved the extra touch of a bottle of bubbles and chocolate! Deb was very responsive and such a lovely host. Location was amazing, the view from the balcony 10/10 and you can easily walk everywhere. I would highly recommend and will definately return.

Had a great stay here. Awesome location, right across from Bar Beach and good walking paths along the coast. Dave was quick to respond and helpful. Have already recommended this place to a friend.

No one in their right mind would or could find fault at High Tide. We felt so comfortable & Adele & Peter ( bell-hop / husband) greeted us and assisted with luggage. Everything was of good quality, the area was peaceful & quiet. The tranquility is unsurpassed in my view. I believe High Tide is good value for money & Adele gives her guests privacy & compassion. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her place again - well done you are both super hosts …

Nicky was friendly and a pleasure to deal with from the outset. The property was exactly what we expected as a result of seeing the photos in her listing and very comfortable and extremely clean. The view out the front of the unit across the water was amazing. The beds and linen were wonderful, so we slept soundly each night, and the kitchen was outfitted with everything we needed, so much so, that we felt it was our own. We couldn't speak highly enough about our stay, so happy to return sometime and to recommend it to anyone looking for a quality property at an awesome location. Thank you Nicky.

caves beach is absolutely beautiful and the Williams house is in a perfect location. Two beaches very close by and walkable and plenty other activities to do in the surrounding. The house is perfectly set up for families with kids and the views are stunning. We actually thought the pictures do not do the views and house justice.

We loved our stay here! The period styling of the place added a bit of fun to the experience. The garden is beautiful, full of native flowers and birds. The place is well equipped, Mary has thought of everything. From guides for local walks and restaurants to special touches of fresh eggs from her chickens and bread in the fridge for your arrival. The location is superb, wander across the road to sweeping view of the ocean or turn left and you are at Lake Macquarie. Easy drive to Swansea and Caves Beach. Highly recommend!

Perfect location close to everything you need with an awesome view!

wonderful host, great location on the beach and close to excellent restaurants and cafes.

Another lovely stay! It's the perfect spot for our family. Nice and cosy in winter too. So clean and tidy each time. We'll be back again I'm sure!
