All About Byron - tropical oasis
Beautiful home! Jill was super responsive and very helpful and friendly. The place exceeded our expectations. The private backyard and spa is a highlight - so peaceful and beautiful. Thank you Jill!

The Hidden Gem Broadbeach with private rooftop spa
Maria’s place is a hidden gem. It was comfy clean and had lots of options including a lovely shared swimming pool downstairs but we loved the rooftop balcony where we could have a bbq and a spa. It was close to restaurants and the beach. We had an issue with an appliance and Maria and Mario fixed it straight away. Lovely venue and lovely hosts. No need to look further.

Absolute Beach front Home
A beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood. The house was immaculate and exceeded expectations in terms of beauty and amenities. Jim was the most responsive host we’ve had during any Airbnb stay. He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and the house was in good condition after the cyclone. He was truly fantastic. Because of the cyclone, the private path to the beach was unusable but 200m down the road (Wareham St) was another entrance to the beach which was accessible for my elderly father. The beach is not patrolled this time of year but has shade and was still beautiful despite the erosion/accessibility issues. There was a playground next to the property which worked well for our 2.5 year old (with supervision). A 10 minute walk up the road was a great bakery/coffee, a small grocery store and a great Indian restaurant among other shops. Easy 10-15 minute drive into Byron which has a woolies and is patrolled. Highly recommend.

Cristina is a very caring host. We came before the cyclone Alfred and she made sure that we are safe during our stay. A very friendly neighbour also. We will definitely come back to her place and recommend it also to our families and friends. Thank you Cristina. You definitely deserve a 5 stars.

One Fabulous Room Brunswick Heads
Johanna’s place is wonderful. The other world touches transported us to another place. We felt as though we were in some far flung French colonial outpost, with all the trimmings. Loved our stay.

Pet friendly apartment in Brunswick Heads
A well presented spot within walking distance to everything needed. Had a lovely space to accommodated our dog, with a nice safe closed in space for her to be outside when needed. Very modern inside, spacious and all basics provided. Enjoyed the place for our few days away, would highly recommend and would definitely hope it is free the next time we travel to The Brunz.

Unit Garden Terrace Resort Pool (pet friendly)
A really lovely stay here! Lana and Tracey are great hosts and are very accommodating. The place was so lovely and homely, I felt comfortable straight away. It has everything you need. A nice quiet location but walking distance from everything. I couldn’t recommend it highly enough!

Bangalow B & B Dog friendly
Pip and her husband were very friendly and met us on arrival, offered to help us with our luggage to the self contained beautiful, private accommodation at the rear of their property. All the little extras made such a difference, fresh sourdough, jam, butter, ground coffee and plunger, bowl of fruit and cookies, such hospitable hosts. Nothing was too much trouble and Pip and her husband were happy to give us local recommendations for the area and nearby places of interest. Such a beautiful garden and our dogs will be sad to leave, they have made themselves at home ! Thank you for a lovely stay and we hope to be back another time when the weather is kinder and would not hesitate to recommend your beautiful accommodation to others. Best wishes, Jo and Vic 🙏

Gold Coast Hinterland Retreat
My family & I stayed at Gold Coast Hinterland Retreat to attend a family wedding. The house was perfect for a large number, we had plenty of room both inside & out, at no time did we feel cramped or in each others way. I have no hesitation in recommending Michelle’s property if you’re planning a Gold Coast get away with a larger group. The description & photos accurately describe the property.

Large stylish apartment, close to beach with pool.
We had a fabulous stay at Glen and Keryn’s place. Communication was easy and we had everything needed for a comfortable stay. The surrounding area is beautiful, loads of eating and drinking options and everything is walkable. Bus is close by for longer trips. The accommodation was clean and bed was super comfy! The aircon was appreciated in the bedroom. Thanks for having us!
