Coastal Runaway - Studio Apartment, close to beach

KarenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We had a great stay. I loved that it was quiet and in a beautiful area but it was a bit far from everything. Karen was very helpful in explaining how to navigate the bus and tram system.

Visit Vineyards from an Architect-Designed Mountain Retreat

AllisonRating, 5 stars1 month ago
What a gem. We loved our stay at Laurie’s. The attention to detail from the bedroom linen to the luxurious towels was perfection. We appreciated the fresh loaf of bread, fresh fruit and tea and coffee supplies. Waking up to the birds and the quiet ambience of the mountain was delightful. I highly recommend a stay here. Thank you Laurie.

“GONE To The BEACH” ShortWalk*PeaceFUL*RELAXing*

AdamRating, 5 stars3 days ago
Communication in the lead-up to our holiday was excellent. Anne was very welcoming on arrival. The check-in/out process was quick and easy. We were able to park our vehicle in the driveway and not touch it for three days. That's my idea of a holiday. The guest house is very quiet and private. The photos are an accurate indication of the accommodation. We didn't access the pool or backyard much as we were out exploring the local cafes, restaurants and bars. Our favourites were Pretty Handsome and Black Hops Brewing. We'll certainly book again should we return to the area for a break. Thanks Anne and Dennis.

Wildlife Retreat Mudgeeraba

MelissaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
I stayed 5 nights with Jo and Bernie, they could not do enough to make me and my Charlie girl feel welcome . Yep Dog bowls in the house / a dog rug for the bed / a cover for the couch and a beautiful safe and secure courtyard for Charlie to play . I spent the week working big days from 0500 - 1700 and I knew that my dog was safe and sound and Jo let me know she was alright with the occasional text . The peace and quiet that you have in the beautiful oasis is perfect for a retreat after a busy day on the Gold Coast . Easy to access/ 15 minutes from the heart of the hustle and bustle if u want it . I’m already booking my next trip with them . Can’t rate this couple and the experience high enough . I hope all guests are as appreciative of their hospitality as Charlie and I were . Well done you beautiful humans on providing this retreat for visitors to experience .

Industrial style self contained,private studio

AnneRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We really enjoyed our stay at Mick's place. The apartment was very spacious, comfortable, clean and private. On our arrival Shaun (co-host) met us and showed us around the apartment. Shaun was very helpful, informative and friendly and it was great to be shown around. The apartment had everything we needed and we felt as though we could call Mick or Shaun anytime, if there was a problem or we needed anything else. We went to a show at the Redlands Performing Arts Centre (5 minute drive away) and then had dinner at the Cleveland Sands Hotel, which was close by. The food was lovely and there were many other restaurants and shops on the same street. We highly recommend Mick's place to stay at and we will definitely return when we can.

we loved our stay. The space was a great size with plenty of room inside and an outdoor play space for our two pups. The accom was only a street back from the ocean and close to cafes and restaurants. The space was nice and private with its own separate entrance and was modern inside with everything you need. We really enjoyed our stay.
