Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Stayed in a large and comfortable 2 bedroom apartment on level 3. Both bedrooms had own private ensuites, with spa bath in the larger room. The appartment overlooked the beach car park and the ocean. The secure under cover parking was a great bonus. However for me, I had this contradiction. Living room, kitchen faced the ocean. Nice. Both bedrooms are at the back of the complex, away from the beach, close to the main road. The night time bedroom road nose contrasted the peaceful daytime living room beach ambience.
Convenient, clean, spacious... and recommend.

My family of 5 stumbled across this hotel last minute as we arrived into town. We were greeted by the most friendliest lady and we booked the 3 bedroom apartment. Price was amazing for what we received. Our room consisted of 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, laundry, 2 outdoor areas, large kitchen, dining and lounge. Amazing views from every room. If we weren't just passing through I would of stayed for a week. Everything is modern, clean and so fresh. The Hotel is walking distance to restaurants, bottleshops and the main street of Forster. Thanks Beaches for a great stay😁

The spotless two bedroom, two ensuite plus powder room apartment did not disappoint in any way. Magnificent views from the balconies, excellent, comfortable furnishings and the best equipped kitchen facilities I've ever had the pleasure to use in a rental property . Having such courteous hosts and staff were the proverbial, "icing on the cake" who ensured my disability was fully catered for.
Thank you so much for making our stay so memorable.

We traveled from Sydney for the June Long Weekend. We had a 2br apartment on level 2. As advertised, you could see the ocean even from this low level.
The apartment was larger than expected and well equipped. As mentioned the views were good and the apartment had plenty of natural light on 3 sides. Everything was clean and well maintained. Undercover parking was provided and the parking space we had was generous (we have a Ford Escape)
It is about 100m from Main Beach and about 100m the other way to shops, cafes etc of Forster. It was a little cold for us to try the pool but it looked well maintained.
I think it was maybe first weekend for then since Covid-19 restrictions were relaxed. There was plenty of hand sanitizer provided near lifts and in reception. Check-in and Check-out were both contactless and smooth.
So I would recommend Beaches International as a comfortable and well located place to stay in Forster.

We often stay on the mid north coast to visit family and are usually disappointed with our accommodation. NOT THIS TIME! Our unit was so clean and had everything we could possibly need. It was also very close to town with awesome views of the beach. Would happily stay here again.

What a relaxing two weeks and a big thank you to the team at Beaches …Tammy, Greg, Megan and the fantastic cleaning and garden staff who are the value added part of this great accommodation.
They go over and above to help make your holiday just that little bit special. For example, extra towels if needed, beach chairs and umbrellas to borrow, herbs for your at home meals available from Greg’s garden.
We flew from Melbourne into Newcastle airport, picked up a hire car, drove (approx. 2 hours) to Forster, did a big shop at supermarket on the way in and then only used the car again for one more supermarket run.
Everything you need is in easy walking distance from Beaches including some great restaurants such as The Wharf, Dragon’s Den, Spice Monkey, Il Salone, Tart, Anatolia Turkish, Bella Bellissimo (best seafood pizza) and Happy Garden for some excellent Chinese. We were spoilt for coffee places such as Wing Man (those vanilla slices should be illegal) Tartt and Beach Bums . We picked up some excellent seafood (especially the small school prawns) from Red Spot (Forster), Monins Seafood and Fisherman’s Cooperative (Tuncurry) and fresh oysters direct from Graham Barclay Oysters.
After all that eating it just as well the surf beach and huge protected sea baths were there nearby to work off the meals. Beaches is as the name says …right by the beach with excellent views from every apartment.
We could not fault the cleaning of our apartments or the quality of the kitchen equipment, furniture, beds, linin and huge TV. Then there are all the other little things included to make it a great stay like a Nespresso coffee machine and milk frother, dish liquid and dish washer tablets, clothes airing rack and plenty of good quality glasses and cooking equipment.
We are signed up members of the Beaches fan club and have booked in already for 2024 which will be our third stay.

This is the fourth time we have visited Beaches International, and on this occasion we stayed on a side unit facing Tuncurry on the 7th floor which was the highest floor we have stayed at Beaches. As per usual the unit and facilities were cleaned to a high standard and all those little things that help to make you feel at home were included. I love that I never have to remember to pack pegs as there are always some there! Being on a higher floor meant that we had a lovely view over Forster's Main Beach. It was so relaxing to sit outside at the table and watch the world go by. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking of visiting Forster.

The Beaches International at Forster is one of the best apartments we have holidayed in anywhere in Australia. Having a bathroom attached to each bedroom plus an extra toilet was very convenient. The views are magnificent and the facilities included with the unit make the whole experience very enjoyable and extremely comfortable. Finished off with undercover parking included in the cost. We have stayed here multiple times and will definitely be back again. Thanks for your hospitality Tammy and Greg.

We recently booked 4 nights here never been here before and will be back. Our 2 bedroom apparent on the 2 floor was large, open and well maintained overlooking the beach. There was a welcome note and box of chocks from the management team and they were more than helpful and friendly. Close to everything and where you can park the car forget it for the rest of your stay. Beached has complementary beach umbrellas and chairs to take to the beach, pool and spar and small gym.

Absolutely fabulous time at Beaches International. Spacious, modern, incredibly clean, super comfortable furnishings, amazing location, and wonderfully friendly hosts who provide genuine personal service made our stay a truly memorable one. Our first visit but certainly not our last. When looking to stay in Forster/Tuncurry, look no further than here.

The apartments have washing machine and dryer and 1 complimentary laundry liquid sachet ,also pegs and a portable clothes rack .I always take my own laundry liquid ,( you can buy small travel bottles you fill yourself with your own laundry liquid from reject shop for $1 each)!! Not sure about coffee plunger but I am sure if you email beaches they will let you know ??They do have small amount of tea and coffee and sugar but I always take my own milk as there is a full size fridge !! We always enjoy coffee at local cafes !!
Even though there is some toilet paper there you will need to bring more !! They do have iron, ironing board and hairdryers!! Enjoy your stay as we ALWAYS do !!
There are more places to choose from in the Forster area.
