Worth the extra 15 min drive out of Port Macquarie
So pleased we decided to head to Lake Cathie, just out of Port Macquarie. What a treasure to be found. I could not fault the apartment's most amazing outlook onto the sea. Close to stores and the tavern.

The property was very clean and provided with all the necessary items for the stay. But the Aircon is missing in this Property, which is quite disappointing for us on the summer trip!

We stayed on the 1st floor which has beautiful ocean, coastline and sunrise views. The apartment looks to be recently renovated in a beautiful beach theme and is equipped with enough kitchen stuff to cook up a meal. The beach and river mouth is across the road and there’s also a food truck called Sunshine’s at lake Cathie in walking distance which makes a great toaster and excellent coffee. I will be staying here again for much longer this time.

The property had a real homely feel to it unlike the usual highrises we've stayed at. It was very clean, comfortable and quiet as well. Lake Cathie is such a beautiful and quiet place to relax and the beach across the road was so convenient. Everything you need is close by and there's always Port Macquarie not far down the road. This was our first stay and will definitely be back.
