Accommodations in Newhaven

Great location with informative staff. Having private beach access was very nice. We were also lucky to get a free upgrade.

Clean, comfortable, spacious. Good location.

The room was large, and clean, with good heating and TV. (Room 15), the bathroom looked like it had been recently updated, and it was a good size with a good shower.

Nice kitchen; Great if you have children coming for the stay.

The property was in a fantastic location with exceptional views of the bay, the renovation was modern and very comfortable. Access was very easy and communication with the property manager was great. Stayed with my 5yr old daughter and she loved the gas fireplace and the telescope.

Well equipped kitchen. Large bathrooms and rooms.

The accommodation is so close to the main attractions but secluded enough to have your own escape from the busy tourist spots. Super quiet and peaceful spot with a large yard area to have a picnic while watching wallabies. The room is really big and the kitchen has some breakfast items on arrival (cereal and milk). That was a nice touch. I have been here before and will come again.

The Black Dolphin Waterfront apartment is located very conveniently, across the road from the scenic front beach and a short walk to local shops and eateries. A slightly longer walk leads you to the marina, the Fishermen's Co-op that serves excellent fish and chips and other seafood, the marina and the spot where the pelican feeding occurs daily at midday. Not to exclude the fact that the apartment is a short drive to the bridge that leads to Phillip Island and its many attractions. The apartment is amazing: it has a large open plan space with modern kitchen, dining alcove and comfortable, generous couches. The apartment is very well- appointed and tastefully decorated. No detail is forgotten. Windows look onto a beautiful secluded cobbled patio edged by pots brimming with colourful plants. There is an outdoor setting, BBQ and two comfy outdoor chairs strategically located undercover from the elements. My husband and I are older people and we stayed at the Black Dolphin for 8 days in March 2025. We and our 11 year-old Lhasa Apso cross dog had a wonderful stay. The apartment was light-filled impeccable, the beds were comfortable and we had the luxury of one modern ensuite bathroom each. Our hosts, Nigel and Lydia were friendly and attentive. We are from Melbourne and have stayed in holiday rentals that permit dogs,for approximately the last 30 years and we agreed that the Black Dolphin has been the best allround accommodation that we have ever stayed in. We have booked for this October for at least another 8 days.

It was all good especially considering it was Easter and other places were more than twice the price
