Nestled within the unique "Surfside Escape" complex, this residence exudes a vibrant coastal ambiance. With its generous indoor and outdoor spaces, this beachy retreat offers the perfect laidback getaway in the beautiful seaside neighbourhood of East Newcastle. As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a sunlit living and dining area adorned with a welcoming coastal colour scheme. Stay cool year-round in the air-conditioned main living, before sinking into the comfortable sofa to unwind in front of the large TV. Between exploring local cafes and restaurants, you can prepare meals in the well-equipped kitchen. Choose between gathering around the large six-seater table or step outside onto the private balcony, where you can dine al fresco while being captivated by the breathtaking vista of Newcastle Beach. Three spacious bedrooms provide ample accommodation for up to six guests. In the primary bedroom, you'll find a spacious king bed and a convenient en-suite bathroom, ensuring added comfort for your stay. The second bedroom features a queen bed, abundant natural light, and a private balcony with scenic seaside views. The third bedroom is tastefully furnished with a queen bed and boasts charming coastal-inspired decor. The main bathroom offers a walk-in shower, a spacious vanity, and complimentary amenities. Additionally, a laundry area equipped with a washer and dryer is provided for your convenience.

East Newcastle is a vibrant and flourishing neighbourhood, with the sandy shores providing the perfect setting for walking, swimming, and enjoying water activities like surfing. In addition to breathtaking beaches, there is a thriving food and dining scene. Be sure to stop by Estabar located on the promenade and 3-minutes’ walk from the apartment. Serving classic breakfasts and specialty coffee, it’s the ideal way to begin your day. Come night, you’re spoilt for choice. Just a stone’s throw away is Scotties and Grain Store Newcastle. Both are around a 2-minute walk from the stay. The former is a hip restaurant with al fresco dining and plenty of seafood on offer. The latter is more of a traditional Aussie pub, offering a wide selection of craft beers and lively atmosphere.
