Incredible 1st Wedding Anniversary
Amazing accommodation, stunning views. Cannot fault anything, from the Sheridan Sheets to Smeg appliances, it was the nicest accommodation we’ve ever stayed in. Right across the road from the beach, and loads of cafes and restaurants within walking distance. I highly recommend eating at the Shoal Bay Country Club.

Property is beautiful and finishes all high and. View and outdoor area spectacular. Could be helpful for second set of keys and an outdoor kitchen would top it all off. But would stay there again, convenient for shops and Shoal Bay Beacha and plenty of walks. front door could also do with a soft close mechanism so doesn’t slam.

Beautiful location
Right across from the beach, cafes and shops below. Especially good for us with a 4 and 2 year old as we could just walk right across to the beach very easily. I wish the shower heads were a little better, and they had more than 2 rolls of TP for our 4 night stay. Apart from that it was good. Very convenient. Views are amazing.

Beautiful stay, spectacular location
The photos don’t do this property justice. The floor to roof glass doors invite the most spectacular view all day long. My favourite part was laying in bed as the sun rose, drinking a cup of tea looking for dolphins swimming by. The living areas are much larger than the photos seem. Everything was clean and well equipped. Our family had a wonderful stay and will be rebooking. There’s a lovely cafe downstairs with delicious coffee too. My only feedback for improvement is the shower heads in both bathrooms are terrible. Much like showering under a garden hose. If they are replaced this apartment would be absolutely perfect.

Stunning Location & Beautiful Apartment
My partner and I stayed at the Aura Apartment in Shoal Bay in March, and had the most wonderful time. We have holidayed in Shoal Bay several times, and definitely think we have found the spot! We were even greeted with a chilled bottle of wine upon our arrival! We loved the apartment, it had the most lovely view over Shoal Bay. We definitely enjoyed the view each night on the balcony right on the bay with a few glasses of wine and a cheese platter at the end! Being right on the bay was so relaxing, and being able to just stroll down to delicious restaurants each evening was fantastic. Literally on your doorstep. Having the underground parking also made everything so easy, especially when the apartment is in such a central location. The apartment was clean, spacious and very secure, it also had washing facilities (always a plus!) and the most divine beds! We loved the beach house and we'll be back soon (almost too much.... as my partner hesitated in writing a review in case it booked out too quickly for next time).

A Gorgeous Apartment
A lovely apartment - spacious and clean, beautifully styled, incredible view, perfect for couples and families. We used the fully equipment kitchen and BBQ regularly, while also enjoying the delicious restaurants within walking distance. The bed was a dream to sleep in! You can press the button for the blinds while lying in bed for a floor to ceiling view of the ocean - heaven! There was a full range of complimentary MOR toiletries in each bathroom. This apartment had everything we needed and more. Will definitely be back!

Simply amazing
What a stunning apartment in the prefect location. Beautiful views of Tomaree national park and Shaol bay. The apartment itself was amazing. Fully stocked kitchen even afew cook books lying around. Really comfy bed in a lovely room with floor to ceiling sliding door. The balcony is just prefect to soak it all in. Would love to return some day.

Superb apartment
This is a stunning property located in the shopping precinct with cafes, restaurants and shops overlooking shoal Bay. A beautiful view from all rooms and a lift to assist elderly people. Couldn't have hoped for a nicer holiday apartment or location. We have booked our holiday to head back again in 3 months it was so awesome!
