Highly recommend beautiful hotel”

Warm welcome they also gave you a free campaign as a welcome drink. Breakfast was beautiful and delIcious. Staffs are very friendly . Room was lovely , clean but just my room in front of the door so, a bit noisy when people walk in . But all very good. Highly recommend .

perfect place for a weekend getaway”

perfect place for relaxing, we originally booked for one day only, but after arrived we decided to extend to two days!

Staff was unfriendly unhelpful ordered room service took 1.30 hr. Charge over price for little fish ”

Very slow service staff look like doesn’t want to work The reception wasn’t helpful can’t ask anything ,she said I don’t know or No for the answer For $500 a night is too expensive for the service if you want to book just book cheap room because service will treat you like normal service apartment also cleaning wasn’t clean no vacuum you need to tell them I would give this hotel 2 starts

Relaxing and highly enjoyable”

We loved our mini holiday at The Anchorage. We were treated to an upgrade and bottle of excellent champagne once they learned that we were celebrating 26 years of marriage. That was a very welcome gesture. The breakfast was superb, as was the pool and and the location. We would love to return.

Excellent service and hospitality”

The place is very nice and clean with oceanic scenery. We were truly impressed with the hotel services and fine dine cuisine. With the special help from front desk assistant, Lindsay who had rescheduled our reservation for dolphin cruise enabling us to board on a last minute alternative vessel without extra charges. We will definetely return to Anchorage Port Stephens when our next visit to Newcastle.

A relaxing weekend getaway”

For a hotel that boasts such lovely views, has such attentive staff and is so quiet we felt that this was really great value for money. We also had to bring our young son along at the last minute and the staff were really accommodating. The meal at the restaurant was really nice and there were fantastic options at breakfast including a gluten free range of cereal and soy milk (which is something that our gluten and dairy free family were really pleased about). The rooms were quiet and comfortable with a really nice selection of shampoos etc. And there is nothing like waking up to a view of the water. There was also a playground near our room at the far end of the resort which provided our son with entertainment. All up I would really recommend this resort.

Exceptional”

Everything was top class from the rooms to the staff, breakfast, facilities and location. Nothing but praise for the staff

Perfect location & clean tidy facilities.”

We are local to the area so explored nelson bay and shoal bay etc with snorkelling and swimming. Did not use facilities too much and preferred to eat external to the resort. We found price of food to be expensive, particularly breakfast.

Great short break”

We had two nights at Anchorage and will definitely return. Rooms and service great with one exception. The hotel has a "one towel" policy at the pool and this is very aggressively policed. It so out of keeping with the vibe at the rest of the hotel but as you're by the pool to chill, it does matter

Luxury by the sea”

The Anchorage has a very high standard in all aspects of its accommodation. Staff are extremely well trained, courteous and accessible. The rooms have been renovated to a good level of comfort and the restaurant has a consistently high standard of fine dining.

Perfect getaway ”

Fantastic place! We got the garden view room on the ground floor and that meant the beach was literally a few steps away. I loved the decor and the room was very clean. would definitely recommend it :)

great getaway for relaxing holiday with families”

excellent location & views, breakfast included is a great bonus, especially it's nice food! friendly staff, clean room. a few downsides are, no lift for my pram to go upstairs, so next time should arrange ground level rooms. and the mattress is abit soft for us.. other than these small things, we had a wonderful stay! definitely will be back again, and recommended to friends.

time out in a picture perfect place”

Looking for a place in Port Stephens where 3 generations of our family could meet up and relax together during the Christmas-New Year period, I found The Anchorage on the internet and it looked like the ideal answer: no-one would have to cook (the breakfast, which was included, was wonderful) and we could all enjoy being near the water in a beautiful location. I booked 3 rooms which were quite spacious and located side by side. The pool and nearby playground entertained the 3 pre-schoolers, and several of the adults were able to indulge in a very good massage and spa treatment. All of us had a wonderful time there.

Excellent all round faciltiy.”

Perfect. Wish we could have stayed longer. This is the third time we have stayed at the ANCHORAGE, have had no issues at all. Will be a great facility once the upgrades / renovations are completed. Keep up the good work.

beautiful hotel and great staff”

we had 2 rooms, the rooms were brilliant, but we were disappointed the suna and spar wasnt open and we werent told that when we booked and we were really looking forward to it and even bought new swimmer to use in the suna and spar.I feel we should have been told when we booked other wise we might have stayed somewhere else. but having said that the hotel we perfect. very impressed.

Fantastic location,food,amenities,and room.”

Relaxing,only left the resort once.Breakfast was excellent,wide variety of food available.Would have been good to have stayed in a renovated room,but no complaints about the room we were assigned.Staff friendly and obliging,certainly knew their product.Would certainly recommend the resort.Looking forward to a return stay.

Wedding Anniversary Celebration”

It was a really nice way to relax and enjoy local food at two local restaurants. We would have dined at The Anchorage but felt the prices were too expensive in the main restaurant. The breakfast was nice, but there needs to be more variety ie smoked salmon or fish, no a great deal of vegetarian options. Count us in as return guests in the future, the refurbishments are looking fantastic.

Great Long Weekend Getaway”

We had a great time, food wonderful, staff friendly and very helpful, rooms are great after a recent refresh, bed wasn't a 10 out of 10 but still comfy and plenty of space in the rooms was great for our little toddler.

Luxury by the sea”

Brilliant stay, we ordered room service twice unusually for us very happy high standard of food, efficient staff were very friendly. the resort is undergoing renos at the moment however almost impossible to know unless looking out for it, can not recommend this place enough

Luxury resort good food and drink”

Cost of Wifi would prohibit me recommending this for business and conference facilities. Excessive to pay $30 for Wifi!! Apart from this I felt the entire experience was faultless a bit messy at checkout as their system meant I needed to remember what I had taken from the minibar the night before however was nice and quick apart from that.
