like having a home away from home, luxurious kitchen. Friendly but non intrusive host

Jenny Australia

Lovely stay. Hosts were very warm and welcoming. Great space and view of the sunset. Wished we could've stayed longer. Very quick drive to Burleigh.

Sarah Australia

I really enjoyed my stay. Jacqueline and David are nice people and super welcoming. Beautiful house, nice interior, comfortable bed, clean and well located. I would definitely recommend it!

Sabine Australia

The moment we walked in we thought the accommodation was a piece of paradise. Absolutely beautifully presented, and the kitchen was even stocked up with provisions in case we didn't have anything, even pooh bags outside for my dog! A great location, short walking distance to the shopping centre, beaches, restaurants! We only needed a one night stay but we would definitely stay here again! Jacqueline was extremely friendly and helpful, the perfect host and a pure delight to chat to!
