This is a perfect spot for a family looking to enjoy the gorgeous Forster area and its surrounds. The views are spectacular and the apartment is wonderfully appointed with everything required to make a stay enjoyable. The central location allows you to walk to the beach, ocean pool, snorkelling spots and a town filled with lots of great food and drink options. I’d highly recommend this spot and we will look forward to returning asap.

Fantastic!

Really enjoyed our stay. We had a reunion with a group of friends all staying together. The apartment had plenty of space that we did not feel like you were on top of each other. The views and outlook from every room was spectacular. We stayed in winter and the air conditioner and additional heaters kept the apartment nice and warm. Would recommend to anyone and hope to stay again!

Beautiful Apartment

I was extremely happy with this beautiful apartment & I can honestly say that Ann has fantastic communication, right from the minute I booked to the day we left. I messaged her during our stay just to let her know about a gas bottle & it was replaced within the hour, where else do you get service like that! The apartment is beautiful & the views are amazing!!! We had 4 adults & 3 children with so much room, it was extremely comfortable. I would highly recommend a stay in 901 & we look forward to returning again.

Spacious apartment, great views

Nicely laid out penthouse apartment, was perfect for our family of 3 adult couples as we all had our privacy with a bedroom and separate bathroom each. Lovely views of the ocean, river and mountains as depicted in the photos. The weather was not the best so we were unable to enjoy the balconies or rooftop terrace, however we thoroughly enjoyed our weekend to celebrate a family milestone birthday. The owner was friendly and very prompt in responding to my enquiries. A couple of areas I would like to mention in the way of constructive criticism. Firstly the windows needed cleaning, especially around the main living area, it looked like they had not been cleaned for some time, and such a shame to look through dirty glass at the wonderful views. Also the BBQ was very dirty and we were not prepared to put our food on the plates even after 3 attempts to clean it with the grease-clogged BBQ brush which is provided. The instructions received from the owner are that we should clean the BBQ if we used it, so perhaps the previous occupant had not done so and the cleaners had overlooked that on this occasion? Also a minor issue but only one bin liner was provided - for the cost of a few cents per bag it does seem stingy not to leave a few spares under the sink. I was happy with the tariff, but having said that, you are paying top dollar in this area so those housekeeping issues are a bit of a letdown. However my family enjoyed the weekend and I would still recommend this property based on the wonderful layout and views.

Great views and location

I booked the place for celebrating my son's 18mth birthday. It's a fantastic unit with great views overlooking the ocean, 360 degree views from rooftop. We really loved it and hoped we could stay for another few days. Ann was very quick on responding and we appreciated the efficiency. However the cleanness of the unit needs to be improved, we found crumbs on the plate in the microwave and cups with stains, both hand soap pumps were blocked and hardly can be used. We arrived around 3pm which check in time was 2pm, but the cleaners have just finished or yet finished as they came to pick up cleaning things after we arrived. We could have ignored all these small issues BUT the nightmare was after we left, we were told we had to pay the cleaning for a patch of stain on the carpet (which I saw when I entered the property but I thought it wouldn't bring any inconvenience for our stay so I didn't pay any further attention to it) after lengthy conversation, I'm tired of arguing and devastated about being called dishonest and liar first time in my life. It has spoiled the joy of my trip entirely. I've paid my lesson and just to warn whoever going to the place to TAKE PHOTOS as soon as you get into the place if you see anything is broken or stains and report to the owner. I wrote this review to hope there's some improvement and do hope all other people will enjoy the place better. (This is for Stayz management, please remove after reading. Ann might have contacted you as she thought I may leave a negative review, I did think but I'm trying to be fair on review the property itself not the management. I have booked other place on stayz and other websites before as well and had no issues with anyone, but I think this time it was really frustrating as I didn't have any evidence to show how unfair I've been treated as a customer. She just focused on the things they the cleaners and caretaker said but not responding to things I pointed about cleanness. I know the reviews were all 5 star you might think I'm wrong, I think everyone was stunned about the view as I did. As I said I could have ignored the small things but I've been treated and charged unfairly. I trust you would post this to caution other people who will be staying not only for this property but for all in case some owners are tricky.)
