Oaks Port Stephens Pacific Blue Resort

Oaks Port Stephens Pacific Blue Resort

8/10 Good
"We are returning guests, and received an upgrade for the second time. Our lagoon view 1 bedroom apartment was roomy, light filled, and comfortable. We had a lovely balcony to soak up the sunshine, which had bags of room. The king size bed was comfortable and warm, which was very welcome, as being early winter, the nights can be chilly out. I personally found the couch in our apartment to be a bit unsupportive of my back - but I'm not tall, and I do have to look after my posture a bit, having some mild back problems. The problem was solved using pillows. 🙂 We stayed for a week, and did a little self catering. The kitchen was equipped enough for the basics, which is about all you want on holiday anyway. The staff are lovely, and very helpful, and the property is beautifully looked after. The grounds are immaculate, as is the pool."
