Three Days and Two Nights Trip to Port Stephens

This year, from June 7th to 9th, Australia celebrates the King's Birthday long weekend. On a whim, we decided to go on a trip and were lucky enough to book the last available room at a resort through Trip. Starting from Sydney, it took us about three hours by car to reach the legendary Oaks Pacific Blue Resort, known for its "circular pool." As soon as we arrived, we were stunned by the dreamy scenery before us! A light blue pool encircles the entire resort, accompanied by a row of tall palm trees. Even though it's winter, the atmosphere feels like a tropical getaway! On the first afternoon, we rushed to soak in the warm spa pool. The cold weather made the hot water feel incredibly soothing. The room also had a bathtub for relaxing baths, fully activating our relaxation mode! On the second morning, after breakfast, we booked an hour at the tennis court. There are two courts here, both well-maintained! After exercising, we put on warm wetsuits and decided to test the waters in the moat-like pool under the midday sun. It was freezing cold, so we quickly retreated to the steam room and gym to warm up. By the way, next to the gym is a heated pool about 25 meters long. Although narrower, it was a perfect alternative for us, who couldn't fully enjoy the moat pool. We managed to swim a few laps seriously here, making it an excellent choice. As for food, it's very convenient. The resort has a restaurant and bar, and there are plenty of affordable eateries and fast-food options nearby. If you don't feel like going out, you can also cook in your room! On the third morning, we took a stroll around the area, had breakfast, and packed up to head back to Sydney. Although it was just a short three-day trip, we felt completely recharged and refreshed—totally worth it! 📍Oaks Port Stephens Pacific Blue Perfect for families, couples, or friends Enjoy water activities and spa even in winter Rich facilities and convenient amenities
