Guest Reviews
- Anthony (10/5): -
- Hwa young (9/5): -
- karen (8/5): -
- Ian (10/5): Excellent stay staff are friendly and informative. Very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble - Location and ease to find and park Nothing close to everything you need
- Terry (9/5): - Clean and great value for money. Friendly helpful staff.
- Nalini (8/5): -
- Angela (10/5): I will definitely stay here again when I have work in the area. - Spotlessly clean, great vibe, the room smelt beautiful. The shower was way better than my shower at home! Friendly staff. Great layout and well set up with a microwave, toaster and kettle, plates etc even wine glasses! The motel is on the road. Once I shut my door I could still lightly hear the traffic going past. It didn’t bother me in the slightest but if you are a very light sleeper you might want to be aware.
- JOHN (9/5): - Great location walking distance to clubs to eat etc. Friendly and very helpful hosts and staff. Comfortable and very clean room. Would stay there again. Very competitive and good value for price Our stay was too short
- Annette (7/5): I always stay here for work -
- Janice (9/5): An older style motel but with all the comforts you need. Would stay there again without a second thought. Very clean. Co - It was small but everything you needed was there. Very comfortable bed, very clean, good location. Nothing
- ROBYN (10/5): -
- Michael (8/5): -
- Merryn (6/5): Noisy but you get what you pay for - The staff were super friendly and recommended the perfect location for a walk along the beach on my request. It was also one of the cheaper options in the area. Was noisy - people sitting outside the room and chatting during the day and road noise while trying to sleep. When you take into account the price and convenience it's expected.
- oliver (10/5): - Location Non smoking
- Manish (8/5): -
- Katrina (10/5): Very efficient motel. The rooms were clean and comfortable - Very clean and tidy. Staff were very friendly and helpful Nil
- Leanne (10/5): The staff were so friendly and welcoming - Excellent Nothing

- Colleen and Chris (8/5): -

- Guest (7/5): -
- Brendon (1/5): Worst person ive met - Clean rooms location The owner was very rude and agressive ,for instance it was an extremly stressful time no sleep up most of nite went had smoke early hours in morning raining had smoke undercover in morning owner cane to my door very agressivly abusing me for it and proceded to give me a mouthful about the volume of tv at app 730 am didnt care that im deff would never stay thee again or reamend them to even my worst enemy
- Ian (10/5): Great place - This is an excellent road side motel. Nicely maintained. All very fresh. Good beds. Great pillows. Very nice staff. Had a quiet restful sleep. BBQ could do with a clean.
- Phillip (8/5): -
- Jon (7/5): Tidy, budget-friendly, convenient. - Good value for money, convenient location. Facilities were a little dated, but for a budget motel choice, it was certainly not a problem.
- Mick (10/5): Perfect for our road trip - Location
- Deborah (9/5): -
- Mohammed (8/5): -
- peter (10/5): EXCELLENT ABOVE REPROACH - EXCELLENT PLACE BEST VALUE IN THE WHOLE AREA. STAFF ARE VERY WELCOMING ROOMS ARE CLEAN SHOWER EXCELLENT
SMART TVS!!!
- Bishnu (6/5): -
- Sofia (8/5): Muy buena estadía de camino a nuestro destino. - Buen alojamiento, cómodo, limpio, personal muy amable. Queda justo al lado de una calle bastante transitada y se puede sentir bastante el ruido del tráfico.
- Miriam (10/5): -
- Lyle (9/5): -
- Andrew (9/5): - Staff were very friendly and helpful
- Gregory (10/5): Spotlessly clean, comfortable and well maintained motel at a great price - Spotlessly clean and well maintained rooms, with an extremely comfortable bed, new quality linen and handy kitchen offerings (microwave, kettle, cutlery & crockery, dishwashing liquid, tea-towel etc.). Run by a very friendly and helpful family, this motel was great value for money. It's an easy five minute walk to all the Tuncurry shops and Cinema, and 25 minute walk to Forster beach. It is located on the main road, but I assume that's why it is such great value for money. Strongly recommended if you don't want to pay Forster prices.
N.B: Good coffee at Oyster Man Cafe in Tuncurry, but it's hard to beat the view, service, food and coffee at Beach Bums Cafe on Forster beach. Nothing at all, it is obvious the team work hard to deliver a clean and quality offering.
- Kim (7/5): -
- Syeda Quamrunnahar (10/5): - Staff cleanness facilitues Its a close roadside motel so night time too much sounds
- Vahid (1/5): - We visited Tuncurry/Forster over the Easter holidays and, since we really liked the area, decided to extend our stay by one more night. Because it was a busy holiday period, most accommodations were fully booked, so we ended up choosing this motel among a few available options.
Unfortunately, it wasn’t a pleasant experience. As soon as we opened the door, there was a strong damp and musty smell in the room that was quite unpleasant and immediately noticeable. On top of that, the fridge kept making constant clicking and knocking noises throughout the night, making it very difficult to sleep.
To make matters worse, the motel is located right on the main road and has poor sound insulation. The noise from passing cars, along with ambulance and police sirens during the night, was extremely disruptive.
Overall, based on this experience, I wouldn’t recommend staying here. If I could, I would rate it zero—but unfortunately, one is the lowest option available.
- Howarth (10/5): - I've stayed there 3 times now and hopefully will always get a room there when travelling through. Easy access nice rooms friendly staff. Showers are wonderful Nothing to dislike
- Catherine (10/5): Staff are lovely and welcoming, friendly and easygoing people. - Bali Hi Motel is a lovely place to stay the room was clean and comfortable the whole place is nice easy to find location.
- Victoria (9/5): My second stay here, it’s perfect for an overnight stay - It’s cute, it’s clean, perfect for 1 person, easy to find, great value Might be a bit squeezy for 2 people. Plates & cutlery hard to access if you are short!!
- Debra (8/5): Value for $$ - Fresh an clean for the price😃
- Harry (7/5): Convenient and comfortable - A budget stay that sufficed for a night while passing through. Very nice to have a pool to swim in after a whole day of driving. 5min taxi to restaurants & bars in Forster. Very minor complaint but the room’s ‘smart TV’ was incredibly slow and the remote barely worked.
- Julianne (7/5): O.K. for a transit stop - location no opening windows
- Catherine (1/5): - Easy to get to had a large pool Manager was grumpy. A d inflexible it did not look like photos and was smaller than pictures there was traffic noise
- Vicki (8/5): - Easy to book online with clean & functional suites onsite parking, and value for money. The staff were both professional & friendly. I would definitely recommend Bali Hi Motel.
- Brett (8/5): Old school style and good value for money. - Clean, comfortable, good value for money. Welcoming hosts. Not so much 'not like' rather note that the off street parking is a bit Tetris.
- Bruno (6/5): -
- James (8/5): Good place to visit - Location Lack of inside seating
- Bernardo (10/5): -
- Deborah (8/5): -
- Gemma (10/5): - Central to everything we needed Nil
- Christopher (10/5): Cool 👍 - Always a good place to stay otherwise wouldn’t return so many times , hosts are always fantastic and accomodating, will be back many times , and for other people thinking of staying please enjoy the pool Nothing always good for the purpose of short stays
- Annette (8/5): value for money and good location - I travel often for work and always stay here. Super-fast check in , great location and comfy room. nothing
- Andrew (8/5): - Close to town centre and Tuncurry bowling club Owner was so so. Grumpy kind of rude.
- Ren (7/5): -
- peter (10/5): great spot close to everything. - Room is very clean with everything you need.
Bathroom very clean with everything you need.
Bed is great i did not want to get up and leave in the morning.
Close to everything, food , beaches, bowling club
- Linda (7/5): N/A - The place was clean You can hear the road and cars
- Andrew (7/5): - Close to beaches Staff, room size
- Phillip (8/5): Small room yet clean, well-presented and clean. - Presentation very good on entry, very clean and functional. Good size bathroom. Room around bed was a little limited. This is view made more in the context of observation rather than a dislike. However, everything was functional. Still good value though.
- Maria (10/5): -
- Geaham (4/5): - Average Dated
- William (9/5): A great place for an overnight stay - It was clean and in a good location. The managers were very helpful and friendly. Ideal for an overnight stay. We have rebooked for our return trip. Very little to dislike, the room was rather small but it was not a problem.
- Anne (8/5): Value for money...but light sleepers maybe ask for an end unit. - Clean Room, well provisioned with towels, and basic plates etc.
Excellent value for money, and close parking to rooms.
No food outlets close by - but clubs and a chinese within reasonable walking distance. Unfortunately rooms not well soundproofed. I could hear conversations in the room next door, and comings and goings outside room.
- Meagan (7/5): -
- Maxine (9/5): - Very clean and modern
- Sharon (9/5): -
- Darcy Ward (9/5): -
- Ryan (7/5): -
- Monique Echentille (9/5): - Very clean and the staff were lovely
- Debbie (10/5): -
- Julie (10/5): Great experience, room was clean and service was amazing. We will definitely be back. - The property was clean, in a good location and the hospitality was amazing. Owners are lovely and very friendly.
- Guy (8/5): - No outside signage lights to the Motel and I drove past as it was completely dark after returning from a function after 11.00pm. Driveway entry is not bright (some kerb lights would be good) and the carpark is a little tight.
- Stuart (8/5): -
- Elizabeth (7/5): I fairly recommend - Just fair close to the shops The room was smaller than I expected and I booked for queen room but it seems been given us double bed size and not comfortable.
- raymond (3/5): - Staff were nice at checkin The smell in room bed was so hard would not stay there again
- Therese (10/5): Great and convenient for the one night stay. - Easy to find and close to everything
- Angela (7/5): - Good location The lady running the place was quiet rude to guests.
No smoking area within grounds.
- Rebecca (7/5): - It was great price & clean
close walking distance to club's Was a little small for us maybe should of got 2 rooms 🤔
Having 1 bathroom for 5 people not so good
and no door in between the rooms
- Carole (10/5): -
- Louise (8/5): Very friendly & helpful Hosts . Made it a very pleasant stop over - Clean facilities & convenient location
- David (6/5): -
- Emma (10/5): Super friendly staff and excellent value for money. Definitely reckoned. - Clean and good facilities. Brilliant showers! Nothing
- Lachlan (10/5): - rooms were very tidy, and comfortable and quiet
- Jeanine (10/5): - Customer service
- Helga (10/5): - Sehr schneller Check in, gute Lage, sehr sauber, nettes, kleines Pool. Wir waren nur eine Nacht, aber alles okay Es gibt nichts zu bemängeln
- Annette (7/5): - Clean and good location for work
- Evan (10/5): A place to relax... - A relaxed coastal motel in the Forster/Tuncurry region, with Bali-esque touches.
The room was neat and well-equipped, and there is a pool around the back.
- Sally (8/5): - Short walk to the venue we attended, very clean, bed comfortable, easy check in.
- Peter Leslie (2/5): Bali Hi - Location, lady in office was friendly and helpful. Husband was quite rude and unhelpful, forgot to turn the fridge on in the unit. Found numerous hairs (not ours) in the bathroom and mould in grout and shower side of the doorway.
- Amanda (10/5): - Absolutely everything. Will stay here every time. Love the hotel, facilities, location and the staff are amazing. Nothing at all
- Rae (6/5): - Revamped and comfortable
- Ti-ana (1/5): - This was one of the worst motel experiences I’ve had. The staff were extremely unfriendly and unwelcoming from the moment we arrived, which set the tone for the entire stay. Any questions or concerns were met with attitude rather than help.
The overall atmosphere felt uncomfortable and unpleasant, and it was clear that customer service is not a priority here. A motel doesn’t need to be fancy, but basic courtesy and professionalism should be a given—and this place failed at that.
I would not stay here again and would not recommend it to anyone looking for a decent, stress-free place to stay.
It definitely isn’t a family friendly place to stay at.
- Paavola (7/5): - Clean comfortable room. Although VERY small. The Rate on our receipt was different from quoted rate, but paid by my card with Booking.com
The traffic, it is right on the highway and The room BOOKING. COM BOOKED FOR US was this one! How do we avoid this in the future? The manager was not willing to change it to another.
The room was very small. No place for suitcase. You could hardly bend over!
- Olga (9/5): -
- Warren (7/5): -
- Song (8/5): -
- Stéphane (9/5): - Tout était parfait : la propreté, l'accueil, le confort.
Agréable séjour.
- Kathryn (7/5): Simple. Clean. Convenient. - Convenient A little noisy but comfortable
