Reviews for Forte Cape View Apartments
Review 1:The pool area and play areas where small. No BBQ for apartment and BBQ are far and few.
Review 2:The staff where amazing. Happy smiling and genuinely wanting to help.
Review 3:This is the second apartment I have rented in the resort - this one was much nicer, well equipped and cleaner. Far better and more spacious than I expected
Review 4:- The room at downstairs has no aircon ( summer) nor heater (winter). Can't open the window as it's facing the road & no privacy. - - toilet door can't lock. - Only given a small packet of washing powder & no housekeeping nor change of towel for our 5 days stay.
Review 5:- Big space for family or group of friend. - Fully equip kitchen - Washing machine with dryer
Review 6:One BBQ wasn't working & one was too hot so very difficult to cook on without burning the food. Some shade over the seated area would be good.
Review 7:Loved the gourmet kitchen & being situated so close to the beach with stunning views. The staff were lovely in helping us get upstairs & downstairs apartments together to accommodate our big extended family. The BBQs were also conveniently located.
Review 8:Main bathroom floor and bath was dirty when we arrived. This did not reflect the rest of apartments standards so was disappointed.
Review 9:All the comforts of home away from home. Very spacious apartment.
Review 10:We loved the location and the ocean views. It was quiet and the apartment was well equipped, roomy and comfortable. The kids loved the choice of the pool, spa and ocean. It was quite reasonably priced.
Review 11:Property is aged. Old shower curtains and blinds that would not roll all the way down in the master bathroom. Cutlery, plates were soiled so I had to put them in the washer before using them. Also did not expect apartment to be located on the first floor. Coming from Asia with large suitcases and 2 elderly persons, it was quite a hassle and draining to have to lug them up a flight of stairs.
Review 12:Easy location to find, near highway. Quiet location. Short drive to town centre.
Review 13:Main bathroom/spa was strange design which meant water went everywhere even for a shower. Unit starting to get a little tired with time for a bit of a basic up-grade
Review 14:Location is fantastic, 50 m from the beach, what more could you ask for. Didn't use many facilities other than the BBQ which was a little slow for a decent steak
Review 15:There was only an aircon in the living area. As we had 2 hot days it would have been more comfortable to have an aircon in the bedrooms as well as they were pretty warm.
Review 16:The unit was very clean, location great, and it was quiet at night time so we weren't disturbed by other noisy guests which was a huge bonus.
Review 17:driveways and parking are a bit tight for large 4x4 but manageable. gym was a bit small for more than 2 people but still ok.
Review 18:great stay, rooms were larger than we anticipated so had plenty of room to spread out, had all the essentials we required, good access to beach.
Review 19:I didn't particularly like the fact that our backyard backed on to suburban homes. Therefore we did get dogs barking & kids playing basketball. Balls bouncing on concrete doesn't excite me when we did request a quiet location.
Review 20:I liked the fact that the bungalow was modern & had everything we needed. The main bedroom was quite large & having a plasma TV on the wall so you can watch it in bed is a winner for me.
Review 21:We were very impressed with the entire facilities. The unit we rented was absolutely excellent value. Location was great nice easy walk to the beach.
Review 22:The apartment plank showed Foxtel so there was an expectation of having Foxtel service available. Even if it's available, we didn't seem to see it in the guidance booklet. Anyway we'll check it next time.
Review 23:The 2 bedroom unit was very clean, the furniture was in very good condition, the pool was very nice and clean. Very close to the ocean and walking path, and the Forte Cape View Apartments were just a short drive to Busselton and we will certainly stay there again.
Review 24:If the main pool with hot water it would be ideal because we were there at Winter
Review 25:The local area , surronding and pool are excellent. The rooms were very clean and spacious.
Review 26:The apartment living area poorly designed so that there was no privacy from others walking past the windows. There was no private, fenced in outdoor sitting area. The apartment had an outdoor table and chairs but it was pretty much situated alongside the pathway. I don't thing this is the same for all apartments.
Review 27:Location adjacent to Bay
Review 28:had the 3 bedroom near the beach. The interior was a little older and the stairs to the loft was too narrow (spiral). Was not told that the beachside unit was much older compared to the other 3 bedrooms I had stayed in before. If so would not have chosen it. Could do with an interior update in the beach side units Also, too many cobwebs / insects everywhere especially exteriorly in those units.
Review 29:near the beach pool facilities were great bbq could do with a sign to tell users to clean up after themselves
Review 30:The apartments were well furnished and very clean. The rooms were situated conveniently and were clean and had all requirements eg., clean bed linen, bathroom with toiletries, kitchen with equipment and clean fridge.
Review 31:The ensuite off the main bedroom had a spa with a shower. It was impossible to use the shower without flooding the bathroom floor. Since we had our two grandchildren with us, using the other bathroom was not an option. The spa was quite high and getting out onto a very wet tiled floor, was, in my opinion, dangerous. Management was aware of the problem but nothing has been done.
Review 32:The location was excellent and the grounds were beautifully maintained. Staff was very friendly and the unit spacious.
Review 33:My only complaint would have been needing a larger saucepan, when catering for the family meal.
Review 34:The villa was lovely. Very comfortable, and the kids loved it.
Review 35:Nothing of note, would be great if you stayed 3 days or longer for apartments to be cleaned.
Review 36:We loved the location and the view from our apartment, the fact that we did not have to clean it before we used anything was great. Facilities were all in great condition and the kids had a great time. Very quiet, comfortable and relaxing apartments.
Review 37:1) Would be good to provide Wifi 2) The pull out beds on 2nd floor are too soft for comfort 3) Would be better to have a fan in the rooms for better ventilation
Review 38:Almost everything! 1) Very big apartment 2) Clean 4) There is a dishwasher and dryer! (something not common for most Asians. =P) 5) Very near to the beach 6) Very near to town centre 7) Very affordable
Review 39:Wifi is available but at a charge. Bedroom blinds let in a little light around the edges.
Review 40:Adjacent to the beach and cycle path. New spa, sauna, gym, pool. Plenty of space, modern comfortable villa, quiet, well-equipped.
Review 41:The indoor pool is more like a plunge pool, I wouldn't exactly describe it as a pool..
Review 42:Loved the spa, sauna, rooms were so spacious, loads of parking, perfect location- will definitely stay there again!
Review 43:The appartment was amazing, as was the location being close to many attractions and facilities. The staff at the front desk were just lovely and very helpful.
Review 44:The couches in the living area were quite dirty with many stains visible on it. The outside area is somewhat messy with some weeds.
Review 45:Bedroom, toilet and kitchen area is very clean and well maintained. Warm service. Short walk to the beach.
Review 46:The view from our balcony was of a construction site and car park under construction. Work noise started at 7:00am everyday. We had booked 5 months ahead and requested sea views. On check-in the receptionist told us we had views of the pool which was not the case. Very disappointed. Different staff everyday so we did not get to speak to the same person who booked us in when we complained.
Review 47:The location was a perfect base for us to explore the surrounding areas.
Review 48:The first day we arrived, the heated plunge pool and jaccuzzi was a tad too cold for some reason. However we noticed the temp was up the following day.
Review 49:Lovely staff and new facilities, accommodation is well mantained and clean, swimming pools, jaccuzzi and playgrounds, close to the beach. My kids had a wonderful time and asked to come back. And we will be back! Thank you!
Review 50:Everything was great - we travelled with 4 others who stayed at the Sebel - our apartment had a bigger living area -an outdoor entertaining area - a bigger TV at a price a lot lower than theirs - they said after seeing our place - if they come back they would choose Forte
Review 51:It was amazing! Friends and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great location, apartment had everything we needed for a weekend away. Would definitely stay here again!
Review 52:Located just a few steps from a beautiful beach. The apartment was very comfortable and clean. Kitchen is very well appointed. The friendly and helpful staff posted items to us that we had forgotten in the apartment.
Review 53:The location was just perfect. I'd definitely stay in the apartments overlooking the beach. Even on a wet, wintery day it was lovely and cosy in the apartment. The outdoor setting on the balcony was well used and a perfect spot to wile away the time.
Review 54:There was a sanitary pad covering the smoke alarm. The temperature in the main shower didn't work efficiently. The doona/s were quite heavy/hard. Personally I prefer a soft doona. The second entrance light was constantly flickering until we got it changed. We had trouble getting Foxtel up. No wifi. We had trouble locating our unit, not very well signed, especially as it starts to get dark. There was a broken pair of tongs. No peeler.
Review 55:the staff. The grounds. The comfortable seating inside the lounge. Being so close to the beach.
Review 56:Only one bedroom had heating the others were very cold in winter. Had to bring my son in to sleep in my bed as the room was too cold for him even with several blankets. Wish they had free or more affordable wifi, we were there for a whole week and it was unaffordable, 3G reception was also sporadic so was difficult to work from the property or check emails
Review 57:Beautifully kept property, very comfortable particularly with a small child. Proximity to beach was excellent!
Review 58:Fan on air con did not appear to be working properly - very noisy and cutting in and out often.
Review 59:Plenty of space for 3 adults. Very convenient location.
Review 60:A little tired. In need of a face lift. Consider we paid over $800
Review 61:Must admit the bed was very comfy. The top room has a sky light and is way too bright. Needs a blind or similar.
Review 62:The beds are hard & the pillows are harder!
Review 63:apartment was fair, bit dated & in need of attention but it did the job. We were lucky to have the entire place to ourselves for most of the stay, which was good, made it just that bit nicer.
Review 64:Space in apartment limited for two families previous stayed in bungalow which had more space Would have preferred two double beds Hot water not sufficient at bath time
Review 65:Location Accessibility to beach Cleanliness Helpfulness
Review 66:The beds were on hard floors and moved around the bedroom this needs to be rectified.
Review 67:Lovely apartments and nice pool and facilities with very friendly staff.
Review 68:We did have an issue with ants on the morning after the first night. Seems they were coming in through the air con. Reported to staff on departure. Didn't bother us at all, just advising for reference!
Review 69:Close to the beach, great facilities for families with kids, lots of room!
Review 70:Nothing. It would be good if they changed the pans though as it was a little old.
Review 71:I really enjoyed my time staying at these apartments, great location, clean, modern, and good facilities.
Review 72:Web site didn't mention indoor pool! A pyrex type jug would be useful in kitchen so that it can be used in microwave and also for measuring.
Review 73:Position to beach was great
Review 74:The unit was beautiful, a home away from home. Just a short stroll to the lovely beach & a path along side for the kids to ride their bikes while we jog along side. Not far from shops & close enough to all the fun activities & wineries.
Review 75:The staff the receptionist in particular was not very welcoming she even was calling other places for us to stay because she felt we would make to much noise although the room next to us played loud music all night and were yelling and screaming.
Review 76:Plenty of space, big glass windows to look out over tge beach, very comfortable modern feel!
Review 77:It is easy to get to Margaret a River, Dunsborough and surrounding areas. The units are a good size with 2 bathrooms, laundry facilities and a well equipped kitchen.
Review 78:The couch was broken when we got their but was immediatley fixed once we told them about it.
Review 79:The apartment was very spacious. The children had their own bedroom and bathroom. Heaps of space outside for them to run around and only 30 second walk from the beach.
Review 80:only problem was the bed was too hard but that may be personal preference.
Review 81:The property was beautiful and clean with everything you could need inside and just a stroll to the beach.
Review 82:That we could not stay longer!!!!!!!! HA
Review 83:Location easy access to beach and all other parts of town however quiet and not in mainstream of town. Suzie was our first introduction to the place and she was so welcoming and friendly. That always is a good sign that someone is doing what they love and tells me its a good company to work for. Have given your details to friends and work colleagues and we will be back soon.
Review 84:The toaster wasn't very clean, a couple of little things I expected done at this price but nothing important, overall we really enjoyed it.
Review 85:The king bed was fantastic! As was the spa bath. Direct beach access made me very happy, only wish we had one of the units facing the beach with a view.
Review 86:clean, tidy, great facilities, Central to jetty, busselton, dunsborough and caves. Beautiful beaches. Had ground apartment secure courtyard for the kids!! New outdoor pool, heated pool, sPa and sauna great and great new bbq area
Review 87:Combined Spa bath and shower in house was very awkward to get in to and to reach the taps. Could have done with non slip mat and handrails as was quite dangerous.
Review 88:Love the new pool, spa and sauna
Review 89:The apartmant has everything, comfy beds and lounge, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. The property has an indoor and outdoor pool, park and gym. Our apartment was so close to the beach and surrounded by beautifully manicured gardens. Great value for money.
Review 90:The parking space and or other cars parking in skinny lane ways etc.
Review 91:I like to space and comfort of the units. Easy to relax and very family friendly Very enjoyable
Review 92:Our first apartment was not suitable to our group, so the following morning we spoke to staff who went to great lengths to change our accommodation. Their prompt attention to our needs was sincerely appreciated. We had a lovely stay. Thank you :-)
Review 93:Tight 1 car bay.
Review 94:Well equiped kitchen, spacious comfortable bedrooms, expansive court yard, closeness to beach, large clean swimming pool & spa. Location.
Review 95:We loved that it was so close to the beach, that we did not have to leave to relax, everything was beautifully well maintained and worked perfectly. The staff were fantastic and the entire facility was clean and quiet and tidy.
Review 96:It is a bit remote from the town centre, but most accommodation at Busselton seems to be that way.
Review 97:Everything very good. Lady at reception was very helpful with directions, etc.
Review 98:We loved the apartment and facility's especially the pool and access to the beach. Will recommend to all our friends and definitely use again when we visit Busselton. Bob and Maureen Perth
Review 99:Only good news.
Review 100:Second time at this location and no regrets. Stayed in the two storey three bed apartment - great layout. Recommend this over the single storey three bed (though more for superior fitout, than layout - single storey layout also good). Came down from Perth for the Jetty swim. The location is a little further along Bussell Highway than others, but I have stayed at most of them, and the facilities and room sizes are superior here, so well worth the extra minute or two in the car.
Review 101:The upstairs room did get a little wam, but we were there in the peak of summer, and the airconditioner was ice cold throughout the rest of the apartment.
Review 102:fantastic accomodation, a stones throw form the beach. The Kitchen was completely stocked with everything needed to cook and live in the apartment, the view from the balcony was wonderful and the pool and playground were beautiful and close at hand.
Review 103:The unit we stayed in was in need of repair, the washing machine flooded/overflowed each time we used it. The dryer could only be turned off at the wall. Kitchen utensils etc were needing replacement eg cutting knives were useless. Bathroom were in need of a makeover
Review 104:Location good Pool excellent
Review 105:Was a bit confusing with the changed location of the reception for late check in and numbers on units not illuminated making it hard to find.
Review 106:Lovely modern decor and fully self contained.
Review 107:Ground floor bedroom very hot in the afternoon with the sun beating onto the front of the apartment. No air conditioner in that room, only fan, and this made the room quite a bit hotter than comfortable.
Review 108:short walk to the beach. Very close to townsite.
Review 109:Did not have much for kids to do other than pool. I have stayed at other neighboring places that had tennis courts, mini golf, volleyball, bike hire etc The pool could be open later than 6 pm
Review 110:location, cleanliness, attentive and polite staff
Review 111:We found that you had no loos near pool,as we were a long way from pool it was a little bit of a problem. Also too expensive for us too hire bikes
Review 112:It was a lovely little place, tidy and all we needed in it.
Review 113:Kids bedroom got full sun first thing in the morning and was very hot. Also the builders started work at 7 which woke the child sleeping in that room up. The kitchen needs a lot more utensils
Review 114:The unit was very spacious and we were given a three bedroom unit (upgrade) as I only booked a 2 bedroom so that was good and meant each child had their own room.
Review 115:the accommodation we had was okay, not kept very clean (dusty and cob webs) security screens on doors need up grading (so they can at least be locked).kitchen, living area set out well, but in general the apartment was ready for a face lift
Review 116:The grounds of the complex was well maintained, swimming pool area was good, staff very helpful, location to beach area great
Review 117:Too tight everyone on top of each other. Noisy neighbours didn't help either. Only BBQ was in common area.
Review 118:Great location not far from beach front. Friendly Staff.
Review 119:Everything is awesome, just that I don't know how to use the cooker hob. And one or two lights not working at the kitchen area. Good place for families and friends.
Review 120:Need a sign on the walkway to indicate to turn into residence as we got lost on our first evening in the dark.
Review 121:Within walking distance to the beach. Very private.
Review 122:Internet & phone reception not that great inside the apartment.
Review 123:Very clean, helpful and friendly staff. Apartment was big and had everything needed.
Review 124:* Not as close to centre of Busselton as hoped * No view from the apartment * Needed to drive everywhere unless going to the beach
Review 125:* Close to a beautiful beach * Nice walking path along beach front * Kingsize bed * Kitchen * Close to Dunsborough and wineries * Clean
Review 126:No air con in bedrooms, couch uncomfortable, no pool (was there but not in use yet)
Review 127:Nice modern unit, good layout, quiet location, we arrived late and everything was there waiting for us and organized.
Review 128:I booked for a 3 bedroom and was given a 2 bedroom with a loft thatcould not be enclosed therefore making it useless as a bedroom. To methis is misleading. I will never stay hear again. My next trip toBusselton will be this Christmas and I will stay elsewhere.
Review 129:Couches smells. Needed to clean professionary. Kitchen facility needed to be updated a bit.
Review 130:Location was fabulous as it's on the beach and there are shower so it was very enjoyable.
