Stunning location

Lovely unit with sweeping views over Shoal Bay. the unit was clean and tidy, but the cupboards were cluttered and made it awkward to hang clothing.

Great location but not great value for money

Perfect location but this apartment showed a lack of care. Aircon didn’t work in master bedroom and despite reporting it to the property manager we never received a return call. Skylight in the other bedroom had no shade and so it was difficult for anybody in that room to sleep past 6am. Rusted and minimal fittings in the bathroom and not a piece of artwork on the walls. The place really lacked soul. For $2400 for a week I would expect more.

Stunning Luxury Apartment

Fantastic new 2bdr apartment located conveniently close to the shops & beach with spectacular views over the water! The interior decor is modern and very clean with the apartment offering generous space and comfort for us during our stay, with lift access and parking also provided. After realising we would be stuck at home one night during the rain, we quickly turned to our entertainment options to find Wifi, Ps4 & Netflix etc at our disposal in order to keep us occupied. Highly recommend for groups or families traveling to the area as the location and facilities provided are second to none. Will definitely be returning in the summer!

Lovely view

Very new and very nice dcor, with a lovely view over Port Stephens. We were generally very comfortable. For an apartment for 4 people at least one armchair, preferably 2, would have been beneficial. The bed in the main bedroom is not king sized, as advertised. There was nowhere to put soap etc in the shower. After spending a long time to work out how stovetop worked and finally getting it going, it turned itself off after a couple of minutes, twice, so we gave up - and it was the only instruction book we could not find. WC seats would not stay up (poor design, but maybe can be adjusted). Facilities section of website advertises 2 bathrooms, but incorrect. As previous reviewer notes several problems can be easily fixed. Lack of adequate window covering also a problem - particularly for the cost.

Thank you for your feedback. I just want to clarify that the main bedroom does have a king bed and the advertisement online describes as only having one bathroom, not two.
Response from Winning Holidays on Mon 4th Jun 2018

Good potential

On the positive side this is a nice place with a great view. It was neatly furnished and looked quite new. It was also very comfortable and the air conditioning was good. On the down side, the dishwasher looked unfinished (it didnt have the integrated panel) and tipped when we opened the door - so we didnt use it. The bathroom floor got soaked while having a shower because the bathroom door didnt close properly (we had to wedge it with something heavy). There was also only one roll of toilet paper supplied for four people for a 2-night stay - so we ran out on the second day which wasn't great. The wind tends to howl a bit through the unit making it quite noisy. The blinds were not block out blinds and there wasnt a cover over the skylight in the second bedroom so the room was very bright as soon as the sun came up, making it hard to sleep. These are all relatively minor and easily fixed design flaws of the place (except the toilet paper). Lastly, the online advert indicated that the King bed is able to be split in two (making 4 single beds for the unit), but this is not actually the case. Again, easily fixed online. Overall we enjoyed the stay but felt that it was very expensive for its present state.

Thank you for highlighting these issues. The dishwasher is now in full working order, we couldn't find a problem with the shower door. Toilet roll plus spare should be provided for all our properties, so our apologies if this was not the case and house keeping will be informed about this issue. Regarding the online advert, the property is clearly advertised as having one king bed and 2 king singles so i'm not sure where the confusion was there.

Location is great

The cleanliness of the unit was below average. There was dust all over tv unit , the coffee table had not been wiped at all it has sugar or salt all
Over it. The balcony is dirty has not been swept or cleaned. The door mat leading to balcony is full of sand. The aircon was hardly working and unable to adjust from set 23 degrees. We looked at the filter and it is filthy didn’t look like it has ever been cleaned. My husband attempted to clean it which helped with the air flow but this needs to address. We paid the additional fee to have our bed made up for us on arrival, the sheets were not tucked in on the sides (and have stains on them) and the quilt was put in the wrong way so lt was lumpy (I should be refunded for this considering it was an extra fee!) I can see from previous reviews the cleanliness of this property has been a big issue but very disappointing it is not getting addressed. This property has so much potential if managed properly.

The Shoal Apartment 510

The apartment is in a great location. Unlike the photographs and description, there is no access to the balcony from the bedroom, as the door is blocked by a huge television on a stand. We chose and paid extra for this apartment because of the bedroom access to the balcony. When we inquired about having this removed, we were sent a copy of the T&C's which said that the owner can put whatever furniture he likes in the place. When we asked whether the TV could be moved, we received no further reply. The photographs and description are misleading.

Short stay in Shoal Bay

The location of the apartment was great being a block back from the lovely shoal bay beach strip and in the centre of town. The view was also fantastic from the clean modern apartment and the kitchen had everything we needed.

A couple of things that did detract from the stay was that it is advertised as having a king bed in the main bedroom and king singles in the 2nd, neither of which was true.

The door to the 2nd bedroom was broken almost coming off the hinges and a number of lights did not work so the maintenance of the apartment was disappointing. And whilst there is a door from the main bedroom to the balcony for access, a large TV is blocking that access so not quite as advertised.

Our family of 4 had a great few days though with perfect weather and a stress free stay. For the price and description though more was expected of the apartment.

Perfect Location, Nice Unit but Could be Cleaner

The apartment was perfectly located within arms reach of everything Shoal Bay has to offer and the top floor position afforded ideal views of the water. It was well equipped however the bedroom television could not be tuned and it was surprising that the second bedroom did not have a window, only an operable skylight. (Based on my profession, I don't understand how it can be compliant with building codes). The apartment, generally, was clean however the finer details of dusting the bedroom furniture had been overlooked and it took 2 days to finally clean up all the cat hair that was throughout the unit. The bottle of sparkling wine provided by the host was appreciated however the money could have been better spent on a more thorough clean.

Misleading

Our experience was spoiled by two difficulties that were not well managed. Firstly, there was no internet. We had multiple conversations with several people from Winning over the course of our three night stay. At first, we were told that there was an NBN outage In the area that should be resolved in a few hours? However, when the issued failed to be resolved, our own researches on our phone suggested that none persisted in our area. A technician was Eventually promised but never came. This meant there was no Netflix etc. as advertised. Secondly, access to the balcony from the master was blocked by a huge tv on an even bigger table, obscuring the view, exterior access, proper manipulation of the blinds and ventilation. This was not as advertised. I had selected the apartment In part for this view and access. Winning failed to understand this as an issue.
