Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Newcastle

Thank you so much Julie for letting us stay in your beautiful home! The location was perfect for a peaceful getaway over Easter! Stayed with a bigger group, so plenty of space to hang out together, or separately if needed. Beautiful yard for pets and very close to the beach and shops. Would definitely come back!

We loved Janine and Henk's place the moment we stepped inside. The place felt like a home away from home and was so tranquil being up in the trees especially as it was raining outside. It was a short drive to Avoca Beach with amenities close by.

We absolutely loved Annie’s house! We had a peaceful and relaxing stay along with our 2 kittens. The pantry is fully stocked with essentials. It’s 2 mins drive to town proper where Woolworths is. It’s 10 mins drive to salamander shopping centre where you can find Kmart, Aldi, Woolworths etc. it’s 11 mins drive to sand dune where all tourist activities are located such as sand boarding and camel riding. Beach is super close too! If you’re looking for a relaxing and affordable place, this is the place to be!

Reid & Kerrie welcomed us with a bottle of wine and Tim Tam's. I thought that was so sweet of them. The house is well stocked with everything you need. We would love to stay here again ❤️

It is a nice place abd kids friendly. Activities and entertainment machines keep the kids fun busy. High speed Internet makes TV and games fine. Considerable facilities makes living there easily. Kids want come back again. Highly recommend and thank you Geoff.

We both enjoyed our time at Ettalong the cottage is close to the beach and local restaurants, it has a warmth and charm that is very relaxing. Emily gave us a lot of good local tips and Phil helped us with a key issue.

Thanks Belinda! Loved staying at your place :)

The location is perfect for a short getaway and very suitable for little kids. The house was very clean and has great amenities for kids. Renee is also very proactive with recommendations and the likes. We had a great stay!

Perfect spot so close to the beach, cafes and busy Darby street without being noisy. Apartment was very clean and comfy. Much more spacious than the place seems in the photos but still had a homely feel. We were very happy here and would stay again!

Donna's place was fantastic for our family get together after visiting Newcastle for the day. It is in a great location, close to the beach with a great coffee shop down stairs. The apartment is spacious with great views. Donna is a very responsive host and extremely flexible with check in and check out. We will be back.

Absolutely breath taking view, very clean apartment, amazingly stocked kitchen with all the home-like basics you need. We barely left the air BnB as it was the perfect place to hang out and admire the view. We can’t wait to be able to come back and stay again!

Our second stay here...and we just booked a third! Awesome location for the best of Newcastle's coastal walks, cafes and restaurants. Great apartment with everything needed for a short or longer stay. Pool a bonus too. Fast becoming our regular 'home' when in town.

I had a wonderful one night stay at Jonathan’s place. I have to agree with all the positive reviews on the property. It was a very welcoming place, right on the water, and in a fantastic location within walking distance to the main attractions. I would definitely come back!

A spacious and comfortable self-contained flat, overlooking the forest and the ocean. We had an excellent time over four weeks. Communication with a most hospitable owner was perfect. We highly recommend, and hope to be back some day!

Great stay in a fabulous location. Apartment is very cute and comfortable. Lovely eclectic vibe. Bianca is a great host - very helpful and welcoming. Will definitely stay there again :)

Beautiful home away from home. The place had everything you needed. Joanne and Brian were very responsive. They live above but won't bother you and will respect your privacy. It had a lovely outdoor area which was great for my 2 small kids to run around. Right close to the water and train station. Would highly recommend!

This place was incredible! This holiday unit was beautiful, clean, ocean view, spacious and with all the amenities available including the pool and gym- I could not recommend this place enough. Lorraine was nice and really easy to communicate with, Thankyou for letting us stay at your place 😊

Perfect for a weekend or even long term getaway. Location was great, right in the heart of the city, 5-mins walk to a couple local pubs, cafes and convenience stores and 15-mins walk to beach and light rail interchange. Also noticed quite a few buses with different bus routes around the area as well. Check in was a breeze and not that I had any issues but Mel was quick to reply once I had advised check in and check out. The place itself was fantastic, ducted air con throughout, 2 very big comfy beds, large lounge area and huge dining area with a kitchen that had what you need to cook for a large group of people, if you wished. Having access to a washing machine and dryer is always a plus, esp. when there’s a 2nd toilet and the bathroom was clean as well. Would definitely look to stay there again if going back up to Newcastle.

The apartment and the amenities are outstanding. We returned here because we had to extend staying away from our house because of renovations. This was our first choice and u cannot recommend it enough. What really does need highlighted is how much of an outstanding history Connie is. She was so understanding, compassionate, super friendly and flexible. She deserves 10 stars.

Thanks so much Mark & Leah for a wonderful stay. The view from this appartment is just stunning and the appartment itself was spacious, spotless and so comfortable for our stay. Bed was super comfy too and despite being right on the front the place was very soundproofed. Mark was very responsive when we were getting in and on the lead up to our stay. Thanks!

Absolutely incredible views! I’ve recommend this place to friends and family, very clean and can not fault it at all. Grant was a pleasure to deal with! definitely would book again 🙂

There’s little else to add to all the glowing reviews of this comfortable stay at Whale Beach. We stayed here with our young son for 6 nights and it was a lovely home away from home, in a space with both character and all modern conveniences, in a beautiful corner of Australia. It’s one of the most memorable stays we’ve had on Airbnb.

Definitely recommend staying here, we will be rebooking in the future
