Guest Reviews
- Nicole (10/5): -
- O'Connor (8/5): -
- Tiziana (8/5): -
- Laura (10/5): - Great holiday village. Cabin had everything you could want or need. Location is fabulous. Small place which never felt too busy or overcrowded. Internet wasn't very good
- Emma (9/5): Wonderful safe place for family’s to stay. Walking distance to town/beach/pub I would definitely stay again. - Great safe place for children to play and joint areas for our 2 parties to eat together outside. Na
- Helen (10/5): Highly recommend this property, it felt like home - The location was quiet and close to the bowling club if you wanted a night out. The property was small however it was quiet and safe. Beautiful grounds and gardens with facilities for both young and old. It also provides undercover parking. The unit was impeccable clean and provided everything right down to a broom and dustpan for a great holiday. Could not fault this property.
- Kelly (9/5): - The cabins are clean, comfortable and have all the things you need. The recreational facilities are great and perfect for families that don't want the massive holiday parks. Would prefer fixed pump toiletries rather than the little bottles and soaps. Less plastics would be used and also every family member could wash their hair. I have to bring body wash and shampoo each time.
The DVD players/remotes don't seem to be tested anymore and so have never worked when we've stayed. No one really watches dvds but us anymore, so it's not a deal breaker.
- Jordan (9/5): -
- Julia (10/5): Very comfortable stay for a large family - Family oriented NA
- Brad (6/5): - Car parks were tight
- Douglas (10/5): -
- Mike (9/5): Would use this again - Good location, property is well laid out with plenty of room Would have liked parking for 2 cars
- Ingrid (8/5): Relaxing and comfortable - Clean , bed was comfortable Hard to turn the shower off. It was dripping. Oven was a bit old
- Richard (8/5): -
- Mohamed Yaseen (10/5): -
- Sarah (9/5): -
- Kirsten (10/5): We will be making this our annual girls trip. We had the best time. - We absolutely loved our stay! The place was spotless, beautifully presented, and so well looked after. Everything felt fresh, clean, and inviting from the moment we arrived. The staff were amazing — friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with anything we needed. The location was perfect too, close to everything and super convenient. Honestly couldn’t fault a thing. 10/10 — we’ll definitely be back! Can’t fault it.
- Amy (10/5): - Good place for family Nothing
- Paige (7/5): -
- Jordyn (10/5): AMAZING - The size of the accommodation, the facilities for the kids, the location nothing
- Sarah (10/5): Great place to stay in Forster - Great communal facilities, quiet and family friendly, really cute village vibe with the cabins around each other. Very walkable to town, the lake and the beach. Nothing
- Kersi (6/5): We liked the accommodation setting and location. - The place was clean and location was very good. The bed was comfortable, but had it not been for the smoke alarm low battery triggering off the beeping every 20-30 minutes from 4am in the morning on second night (Sat) it would have been comfortable to sleep. My wife suggested to Please provide couple of hooks to hang up clothes/towel near the shower cubical while stepping into the shower.
1. We found the pedestal double lamp had the switch cover loose and the exposed electrical wires could cause electric shock; we disconnected it from the wall socket.
2. On second night at 4am in the morning heard an alarm beep few times and then stop; after 15-20 minutes again beeping. We thought it was something outside the bedroom building. At the 3r and 4th time of beeping noticed it was the smoke alarm. We were Not happy on day 2.
Waited until the office opened in the morning to report the 2 problems and the person then removed the lamp and the smoke alarm saying he will get electrician to have look on the week day.
Nothing else was said regarding addressing this relatively serious issue. No mention of a compensation of any kind was mentioned.
Appreciate a response.
- Lisa (5/5): Acceptable. Points lost due to untidy painted walls, messy doorromecast help, untidy paint job - Location great. Close to everything we needed. Very very disappointed staff told us they could not help with Chromecast. Not able to use. Room could do with painting. Door frames old and untidy. Pillows not overly comfortable. Reception staff friendly upon arrival but when we collected Chromecast I was immediately told by staff they were unable to help set it up. Did not like plastic dining chairs.

- Sameer (10/5): A perfect place to relax and enjoy the holiday - Clean place and location is convenient Parking access near the room
- Gabrielle (10/5): Affordable option for families. - This was a really affordable option for our family. It was just the right size and had plenty of things yo make the stay easy with young kids. Forster generally was great for kids top. Would have been icing on the cake to have access to a highchair, but definitely wasn't disappointed otherwise.
- The Appleby's (10/5): Great location! Great price - Great little holiday park.
The villas are slightly dated (not ultra modern) but still clean and functional.
Great location - quiet street. But easy walking distance to Main Street shops and cafes or club fosters for dinner and drinks.
The staff were helpful and kind.
Good amenities- kitchen in villa with all the necessities, bbq area, pool, tennis court etc.
Enjoyed our stay so much we had a future trip booked at a different location and I wanted to cancel my other accomodation to stay here!
Will recommend this location to our family and friends.
- Tracey (8/5): Fantastic- thank you - The location was quiet. The grounds and gardens were beautifully kept. My accommodation exceeded my expectations. Everything was lovely. Will definitely be back The parking spaces were a bit tight to get in and out of. This is an observation, definitely not a complaint.
- Matthew (7/5): - old style structures with yesteryear charm, but presented very nicely and comfortable adjoining guests with a very large family gathering of 20-30 people stayed up outside their units until well after midnight, not at all considerate, but what do you do ...?
- Kristine (10/5): Very comfortable & quiet place to stay - Central to everything Only that shower head didn’t stay up
- Jessica (10/5): - "Foster Holiday Village is an absolute gem! The cottage we stayed in was not only the cleanest I’ve ever experienced but also so well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The attention to detail was incredible, and it truly felt like a home away from home. A huge shoutout to the manager, who went above and beyond to make our stay perfect—so friendly, helpful, and welcoming. I also want to thank the amazing cleaners, who not only kept everything spotless but even helped us out with a car issue when we were checking out. Such incredible service! I can’t recommend this place enough and can’t wait to come back
- Gail (10/5): - location was great maybe a quieter fan in second room

- Gillian (7/5): Road trip - Very friendly staff and park was comfortable and quiet. Accommodation was a little dated but can not fault it

- Peter (9/5): -
- Wayne (10/5): -
- Dionne (8/5): - Was comfortable for family/friends. Good location. A lock on the bathroom door would be good so others can't walk in on you i the shower.
Also, more cups. We had 5 people, but only 4 coffee cups etc. When it sleeps 6, this would be useful.

- Steve (9/5): - Well stocked kitchen, modern bathroom, comfortable beds, close to town centre Carport was a little narrow
- Douglas (9/5): - Facilities were great, amazing pool, tennis court, and trampoline for kids. Playground for toddlers is a bit small. Nice and quiet and close to town and all attractions. Only let down was non guests intruding on the premises to use the facilities. Was disturbing to guests who actually paid to be there. Once were kids of cleaner, screaming, bashing each other with pool noodles, chasing each other around the pool.. Another time was a large family visiting a resident and then 5 kids who rode their bikes from somewhere else and used the pool and tennis court and just left all the equipment spread all over the place. Actual guests were really respectful of each other and were quiet most times.
- Belynda (10/5): Every year I am a returning customer, clean rooms and tidy outdoor areas. Nice Staff. - Everything is clean and tidy. Gardens and outdoor areas are well maintained.
- Gregory (8/5): -
- Leanne (9/5): -
- Peter (9/5): -
- Allan (10/5): We will be using this Facility every time we visit Forster - Every thing was a surprise to us. We do a lot of traveling, and this Holiday Village in the middle of the town was worth the stay, Well done guys. Maybe a few Front Porch lights could have been turned off by other Cabins to make our room a little less light, But the owners of this Village have put in really exceptional Curtains to help block this out/
- LEI (8/5): -
- Renee (8/5): -
- Melissa (8/5): - Location away from main area was quiet and facilities are great.
Clean functional room, everything you need.
Check in easy, staff friendly and helpful.
- Jacey (10/5): - So clean and close to all ammenities. Door literally opens up to a children’s playground, swimming pool, tennis court, basketball hoop and trampoline. Nice and quiet.
- Lai (10/5): Family relaxation with fishing holiday - Quite, feel relax and not busy as other big one. Need dishwashers
- Watson (10/5): Excellent in every way, will be back - Everything about the property was exceptional I liked everything
- Anthea (9/5): Relaxing easy and well equipped - Clean and close to every thing Honestly it was very good for the money
- Renee (8/5): comfortable, relaxing, enjoyable - location ease of walking to beach and tennis centre nothing
- Jessica (4/5): The area is lovely and the location is ideal how ever there were local teenagers/children that had access to the par - That it was local to the facilities we needed. For the room my family and i were given it was not at all worth the price that we paid.
- Belynda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Esver (10/5): Excellent - Location, size of the cabins, staff - friendly and great service. The rooms were clean Very minor - locks for the bathroom door
- Pamela (9/5): Superb -
- Jenny (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kelly (9/5): Great family accommodation - Everything was great! Location was walking distance to the main street and attractions. Cabin was clean, new and comfortable. Great facilities, heated pool was a hit and beds and pillows very comfortable. Portacot and high chairs were complementary which is a nice touch for families. Toiletries were those little bottles and they run out so fast. Would be good if they had those on-the-wall pump body washes/shampoo etc
- Sam (9/5): Superb -
- Linda (10/5): Great place to stay, clean quiet, spacious, close to town everything within walking distance. - This is a fantastic property, everything was perfect, the cabins were so spacious, well equipped and very clean.

I will definitely be visiting this property again. Nothing
- Katherine (10/5): Awesome - Location -
- Liz (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean, spacious, location, excellent beds
- Craig (8/5): Very good -
- Akalyaa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ron (8/5): Very pleasant, except the double payment and no assistance given management to rectify this. - Village was clean, beds comfortable & location very central to restaurants, bowling club and town. We were charged twice for the stay. Once by booking.com and then by the Foster Holiday Village management This was not discovered until we returned home and when we contacted management they were unwilling to assist and advised us to contact booking.com. This has still not been resolved.
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Russell (10/5): Exceptional -
- David (9/5): Superb -
- Sofia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Max (8/5): Very good -
- Louise (5/5): Clean but minus the holiday vone - Close to shops Very squashed in and close. No water views felt like was staying in a housing estate. Not a place I would recommend if you want those holiday vibes
