Location, location, location - large 2 bedroom
Our stay exceeded our expectations. Wow what a lovely clean unit and so spacious. Communication with our host was great.

Stunning 2-Level City Sky Home with Carpark
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment has outstanding views over the city and is in a superb location for enjoying the river boardwalk and gorgeous central city. All we needed was there for our family of 6. Comfortable, clean, welcoming and enjoyable. I highly recommend.

Sandstone Point 2 Bedroom Apartment
A great sized apartment and perfectly located to access everything on Bribie Island. We had my elderly mother-in-law with us and it was an easy and safe apartment for her. No steps or hazards. Robyn was very responsive and a great host. Would absolutely recommend this apartment.

Free Secure Park, Restaurants, Eat Street & Ferry
We had a great stay at Nikki’s apartment. The accommodation is pristine, the fit-out, view and interiors are stunning. Nikki has gone above and beyond with extra amenities which we really appreciated - milk, spices, salt and pepper, coffee and tea, washes in the bathroom etc. The location is fantastic for families. It’s walking distance to an IGA, an amazing playground for kids and there is a rooftop pool to keep kids occupied for hours. The only ‘down’ side is that key pickup is at a nearby bottle shop on a busy street. Google maps couldn’t find the address, it was pouring rain and we had two crying babies in the car. You should factor an extra 30mins to find the keys, then drive to the apartment and find/get into the car park. Once you’ve found it, it’s super easy to get in. Nikki was quick to respond to my call for help, and was lovely to deal with.

Celebrate 'n' Chill in the City
All the facilities you could possibly want and need on a holiday. And an incredible location!! Thanks Selina, we loved our stay very much.

Beachside Penthouse
Very nice and clean spot. Top rated.

Stylish Riverside 1Bed/Studio with Rooftop Pool
Cute and clean little studio apartment near Roma street in Brisbane. Having the kitchenette is especially nice during a longer stay when you want to cook a basic meal here and there or simply make breakfast in the morning. Maeva was a very responsive and helpful host. The only thing I'd advise others about is that there is only one keycard to this apartment, which for solo travelers or couples who come and go at the same time would not be a problem, but I had a friend join me what was originally planned to be a solo trip last minute, and trying to coordinate one keycard between two independent adults with different schedules was a bit of a hassle. The hassle was self-incurred due to last-minute planning and no fault of Maeva's :) but for those of you with more foresight I would advise that this apartment is probably best suited for solo travelers and couples.

River Fire Apartment- Best River Views and Carpark
We had a great stay at Neil and Sharon’s place. Room had all the amenities we needed and the view over the Brisbane River is sensational. We were in town for a match at Suncorp Stadium, which is only a short walk away. Also convenient for South Bank and the city. Would definitely stay again!

Place was great stay for me and the family the Manly location was beautiful very close to coastal strip with plenty of spots to grab a nice bite to eat close by. The house was great setup and kids loved swimming in the pool as much as they could.

'Pumicestone Paradise' - Waterfront - sleeps 10
This was a stunning home in a peaceful, serene location that was easy to get to. The house was very clean, spacious and beautifully decorated and was very well stocked with a nice lovely kitchen. The hosts were very responsive and made great recommendations for fishing and food places nearby. The beds were comfortable. We had a really relaxing and enjoyable holiday.

Be woken by birdsong and sunrise over the bay.
Lindy was lovely, excellent communication and nice place. I would book again.

Luxe Master room w/ Brisbane River views
Natasha's place was clean, spacious and very comfortable. As a host her and Tim were kind, open and hospitable. Natasha's place is beautifully located next to the river, perfect for sunrise runs. I felt taken care of as well as feeling like my privacy and boundaries were respected. Highly recommend.
