The new beachfront venue Caves Beachside Hotel has recently opened to a spectacular response by the general public. Overlooking the pristine shores of Caves Beach in the city of Lake Macquarie the venue is strategically located approximately 30 minutes south of Newcastle and just over an hour north of Sydney.

We are proud of this project and have been encouraged by the amazing response to our vision for this site since we opened the Hotel in March 09.

Our Hotel is step one in a multi-stage development which will encompass beach suites adjacent to the Hotel for short term stays, beach houses for holiday makers and eventually village houses, swimming pools, an apartment complex and a commercial centre including child care, learn to swim complex and gymnasium for long term residents.

Caves Beachside is a positive and responsive solution to the enhancement of a rare coastal site. It responds sensitively to its environs in both community and development perspective.

With a capacity for over 1500 patrons, conference, wedding and function bookings have been very strong. We are finding companies have discovered they can strategically hold a conference with employees coming from the Hunter Valley, Central Coast and Sydney, travelling with ease to a truly world class venue.

The Grand Nautilus Room can accommodate up to 220 for a wedding, dinner or special event, or over 400 for a cocktail style product launch or private function. This venue breaks into three sound proof smaller conference or intimate dinner venues for up to 60 people. The Mawson Lounge is also available for private functions, offering casual lounge style décor for special occasions such as birthdays, engagements and corporate launches. Both venues boast deck areas off the rooms where guests can enjoy pre dinner drinks or delegates can soak up the sea breeze for morning or afternoon teas.

The hotels kids club with it's pirate ship, play stations, parents room and available staff supervision was also proving very popular. We can offer child minding whilst guests attend their company product launch, conference or any event.

Whilst the bistro can seat approximately 400 the hotel also offers the aptly named C Restaurant, providing fine dining with the freshest of seafood and stunning ocean views. There are in fact three kitchens in the hotel allowing the opportunity to service five functions at once.

Almost all accommodation in the project offers water views and varies from twin share Beach Suites, Beach Houses with a capacity of six people (or two delegates each with private facilities) and ultimately 131 apartments. The website  www.cavesbeachside.com.au provides individual floor plans and comprehensive information on the overall Caves Beachside project.
