Holiday demand falls across Port Stephens

LOWER than average temperatures and a return to international travel are believed to have led to a drop in demand for holiday rentals in Port Stephens.

Bookings for short-term holiday rentals in Port Stephens have dropped in comparison to this time last year when COVID-19 travel restrictions were eased after two months of lockdown. Picture shows Shoal Bay from Tomaree Mountain. Picture Max Mason-Hubers.

That's according to some operators in the region who have experienced a decline in bookings for this year's summer holiday season.
