Top Zenith Beach Hotel Reviews

Peninsula Nelson Bay Motel and Serviced Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved our stay! The reception staff was helpful and just lovely, bringing towels to my kids when she heard they were in the pool. The apartment we stayed in was the 3-bedroom apartment. It was quite dated, however clean, and there was everything we needed, really. Great positon to go for walks to various beaches that surround the area and close to Nelson Bay."

Sea Vista at Shoal Bay - Heated Pool, Fireplace and Views

10/10 Excellent

"Brilliant stay in the most gorgeous location. Steep climb to the house but well worth the stunning vista from both levels. Pool was wonderfully warm for our winter stay and the kitchen had everything that we needed"

Shoal Towers 5, 11 Shoal Bay Rd - Air Conditioned, WiFi - fantastic location with water views

8/10 Good

"Overall, it was a nice, pleasant experience. The location was fantastic; the water was a few steps away and all necessary shops were in walking distance. The view was excellent, not just the water view but the surrounding bushes. We had frequent visits from native birds, too. The only, minor downside was that the place didn’t have a vacuum cleaner and a working kettle. (The agent told us upon checkout that you could borrow those items btw) We also had to wipe surfaces around the kitchen and bathroom areas with peppermint oil because there were a few sightings of roaches."

Castaways 1 Beachfront Apartment in Shoal Bay

8/10 Good

"The unit was neat. There was a bad smell in the kitchen cupboards and drawers. It is a very basic unit but it did the job. The beds were comfortable. It would have been nice if we could open the glass sliding door out to the front but it seems to be permanently closed. Great location, right across from the beach and walking distance to all the beautiful shops, cafes and restaurants."
