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.
