The Beach Shack op Wanda - Waterfront Coastal Chic
Welcome to The Beach Shack on Wanda, the ultimate destination for a classic Aussie beachfront getaway. The views of the sparkling harbour and the ocean beyond are nothing short of breath taking. With its long stretches of golden sand and calm waters, the beach is perfect for families. Just a short stroll down the shore leads to a delightful playground for kids, while in the opposite direction, you can fish off the jetty or dine at Rick Stein Restaurant, Cheeky Dog or Solders Point Bowling Club. Children will love swimming, building sandcastles, and playing games in the sandy beach and grassy areas.
This holiday home is inspired by its beachfront location, combining coastal chic style with a relaxed Hamptons vibe. Both the front and back of the property boast hardwood decks. The front deck offers comfortable outdoor furniture and a Weber BBQ, perfect for alfresco dining. The open-plan kitchen, dining, and lounge areas are framed by floor-to-ceiling glass, providing uninterrupted views of the stunning bay and opening directly onto the decks.
The Beach Shack is perfect for two couples or a family with up to four children. The master bedroom features a king-sized bed, a TV, and opens onto the deck with beautiful beach views. The second bedroom, also opening onto the deck, has a zip-bed that can be configured as two extra-long singles or a full king bed, all while enjoying magnificent ocean views. The lounge area includes a sofa bed suitable for two children.
Situated on a spacious lot, The Beach Shack offers ample off-street parking and side space for a boat. Each room is equipped with split-system air conditioning, louvred windows for fresh sea breezes, and ceiling fans. An outdoor hot/cold shower and the original outdoor toilet make clean up from the beach a breeze. Local shops, including a supermarket, bottle shop, chemist, butcher, café, and the area’s best fish and chips at Salt Mine, are just a couple of minutes away by car.
The property is a walk to Rick Steins at Bannisters, around 1.9 km from Salamander Bay, 2 km from Soldiers Point Marina and 5.1 km from Anchorage Marina Port Stephens. Newcastle Airport is just 30 km from The Beach Shack on Wanda, making it easy to start your vacation in style.

Reviewer Comments:
To describe romance, I honestly can’t think of anything more fitting than this house. It’s a pity that these kinds of beach houses are becoming rarer and rarer, replaced by unattractive concrete buildings along the waterfront. Perhaps places like this should be protected as heritage to preserve their character and spirit.My sincere thanks to the owner for allowing me to experience this.

The shack is gorgeous. It has all the creature comforts whilst maintaining the essence of a shack. It's just amazing to fall asleep and wake up to the lapping of the water and total serenity. One small suggestion it would be great if the property had a hair-dryer.

great property and beautiful location
we had a lovely relaxing few days ,very enjoyable. we did however have shoes stolen off the back porch so really need to lock all valuables inside and when we left we contacted the property manager to let them know we left our ghd straightener on the hat rings in the bedroom and have not heard back from them if it was located so this was disappointing but the property and house amazing
