Ramada Resort by Wyndham Shoal Bay, hotel in Shoal Bay

Steps from the white sand and sparkling water of the beach, Ramada Resort by Wyndham Shoal Bay features well-furnished apartments.

This property has amazing location. I also want to note that the staff was very friendly (Mel) and helped me with resolving my reservation since I booked for incorrect dates (was my mistake). The room was specious and clean, the bed was comfortable. I did not had breakfast in the hotel but it looked very good too. I will not hesitate to stay here again and recommend it to everyone.

    The weather was uncertain but there were opportunities to appreciate the beauty of the bay and the views over Port Stephens. We took advantage of excellent take away from Giannis and mod Thai. The IGA was small but very useful. It was a good location for exploring Nelson Bay, Fingal Bay and Salamander, all worth a visit

    Shoal bay has always been a holiday destination for us.

    Shoal bay has always been a holiday destination for us. Been many times over the years and it never disappoints. My kids loved it and now the grandkids love the ease of getting to all amenities. The beach is just across the road. Shops within walking distance. Fresh air and wonderful selection is cafes and ice cream shops. The country club is our favourite place to get a great meal. We hired a canoe and paddled out to the beautiful turquoise waters. Can't explain it you have to experience it yourself.

    Love the coastal area.

    Love the coastal area. Minimal traffic, high rise and not over developed. Beautiful beaches with blue tranquil water. Definitely Not a surfing beach. White sand . Seems like a very safe area. Good places to eat. Try the Country Club for a great meal or afternoon cocktails . Also the Atmos Greek Restaurant was very nice. 5 mins drive to Little Bay Boathouse a great restaurant we lived. 10 minutes to the larger town of Nelson Bay if you want to shop, dine, or need anything. Also a wharf there with fresh seafood available.

    It was a beautiful place, what would be good is a place to hire beach chairs. I didn't go to beach cause I can't sit without chair.Transport to airport was great right out side door nearly and cheap, bus driver helped put cases on and off.

    The location was central to many beaches (Box Beach, Fingal Bay, Shoal Bay) and the garden was lovely and well maintained. The air conditioning worked well and the bathrooms were clean and spacious. The bedrooms were also a good size. The property managers responded quickly when the hot water stopped working and rectified the problem within a few hours. The washing machine works well.

    Location wise, it was very convenient to Shoal Bay and the shops. But it also meant a lot of nightime party noise and there was also construction in front of the apartment, which made chilling out at home during the day not possible. This was not necessarily the fault of the host.

    Bay Village, located at Shoal Bay are individual apartment units which we thoroughly enjoyed staying at. The unit we stayed at was clean and offered a swell view of the bay. We definitely recommend Bay Village.

    It was an easy walk to little beach and shoal bay. The yard was nice and secure for my Jack Russell, but the step in and out of the house was a little high. The kitchen and lounge room were a reasonable size.
