They had rennovated a tired old motel to look contemporary and fresh. As we checked in on a public holiday and checked out on a public holiday, there was no housekeeping, and we were not informed if there was any check out process. There were no pool towels available and many of the pool chairs were damaged with old, mouldy cushions. It was a reasonable facility for a quick stay but anything more than one night would not be recommended.

Hi Emily, we do appreciate your feedback. Unfortunately, due to the Public Holidays housekeeping services were suspended and all guests were informed on arrival by our reception team. You also received our pre arrival letter which advises guests to pack their pool towels as we do not supply them. Being outdoor furniture, it can tend to go mouldy but we will be refreshing the cushions.

Stayed here for a night the day after my wedding (we're from Sydney and just wanted a day to ourselves before we flew out for our honeymoon). We got an upgrade and the room was super spacious and clean. Unfortunately the pub was closed (it was quite rowdy down there due to a birthday party), but there were great options on Uber Eats and there's a shopping mall close by :-) Would stay there again if we were in the area!

Hi Tanya, thank you for the great review! Unfortunately, the restaurant here at The Quarters is a separate business to accommodation and they manage their own hours but I'm glad you found other options. Would love to have you back if you are in the area again!

Loved staying at the Quarters! It's like a mini resort and the staff are welcoming and friendly. We had the family room on the first floor. It was clean and surprisingly roomy. Our balcony overlooked the pool area. Definitely will be going back.

This was a beaut of a property. Great staff and an excellent restaurant. The pool was lovely yet freezing. However, long black hairs in the bathroom and on the bathroom floor. Floors pretty unclean. Also, a wedding on the second night which was noisy. Not really a child friendly venue as advertised.

Hi Jodey, thank you for your feedback. I do apologize for the housekeeping issues. I will be addressing this with the team to review their cleaning procedures. I have brought to the attention of the events team to better manage people and noise when they hold weddings onsite. Hopefully we see you again another time!

We had a great staycation however the pool was like ice and we were unable to swim in it (it is July) the hot tub was lovely but so small, so we couldn’t go in for long as there ended up being a line of families waiting for their turn for a dip. Would love to see some heating in the pool so it wasn’t un-swimable as my 6 year old can usually swim in any temp pool! The convince was great! We had dinner in the gilded anchor and breakfast at the pantry. Thanks for a great time

I recently stayed at The Quarters in Forresters Beach in March 2023 and was thoroughly impressed by the beautifully renovated boutique hotel. The stylish updated room was perfect for my needs, and I loved the modern beach design. The drinks fridge, pod coffee maker, and microwave were convenient touches. The hotel's grounds were gorgeous, with a lagoon pool area that was perfect for relaxing. I also appreciated the on-site cafe and restaurant, which provided food options. Additionally, just a few meters away, there is a coffee shop, home decor store, pizza store, bakery, and bottle shop. The hotel's location is ideal for exploring the area, with a short drive to Terrigal and only a couple of minutes from the beach. Overall, The Quarters offers a wonderful mix of convenience, luxury, and location. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a peaceful and stylish getaway on the Central Coast.

Was greeted on arrival by lovely receptionist and directed to our room. Room was very nice, beds were as comfortable as sleeping on a cloud. The pool looks amazing. Unfortunately though we were placed next to a wedding party's room and their guests who made noise until 1.30am, and as the walls didn't seem insulated we heard everything and we're very tired and grumpy the next morning. They then woke us up by their noise at 6.50am. As reception closes at 5pm there was no one to request assistance from. We came up from Sydney for a desperately needed weekend of relaxation, but ended up leaving to go back to Sydney the next day. Was so disappointing. We explained what happened to the manager who was very understanding and processed our refund immediately. The hotel and staff are wonderful, but if a wedding is scheduled, please let other guests know to give your non-wedding guests the opportunity to come at a different time or place them in rooms away from wedding parties as they are just too noisy.

Hi Holly,thanks for your feedback. Its unfortunate that this happened and is rare that it happened as generally our guests are respectful of each other. Your comments have been taken onboard though and we will tighten our procedures when it comes to groups staying with us and be mindful of how it affects other guests staying. Hopefully we see you again sometime.

This is a motel - when I booked it didn't say it was - motels are very different to hotels in my opinion - it was a nice stay for 1 night - pool was so overcrowded as it was a full house so didn't get much use - food options limited n their cafe was closed on new years day - it also didn't mention this when i booked - thankfully we had a car n drove out to grab a bite - beds were comfy - could tell the shower was a rush job getting cleaned so i recleaned again with spray n wipes I took as I have kids - netflix was a nice added bonus too!
