My home is in a peaceful little neighourhood with a nearby lake and park, it is a short walk to Burleigh Beach, shops, cafes and restaurants and the main transport hub up and down the Gold Coast Highway. Dreamworld, Seaworld, Movieworld, Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, the casino and lots of shopping centres are an easy bus ride away. My adult son and I enjoy travelling and meeting new people. My son has moved back home and is training to be a teacher, after spending some time in Asia teaching English as a second language. We have a pilates reformer for strengthening exercise. You have a queen sized bed. The bathroom is shared and a hair dryer is provided for your use. You are welcome to use the kitchen, there is a shelf for you in the panty and a small fridge in your room. Fast wifi and smart lights throughout the home. We have a toy /mini poodle puppy who is really friendly and in training but she does tend to dominate our home. Our home is wheelchair accessible and has access to a disability shower on site. Please message me to discuss mobility requirements if needed as at times we are able to rejig things to give you the accessible bedroom.

Adrienne just helped me to feel at home ! As it was my first time to Australia, as a solo traveler, she warmly welcomed to her place and made myself feel comfortable. The house is well located, in a quiet area nearby a lovely lake and a coffee place. You are 15 mins walk from James Street, where are the main shops and restaurants of Burleigh. I would recommend this place for any solo travelers :-)

Exceptional stay and hosts.
Adrienne, her daughter and her son have been amazing hosts and super nice persons, making the stay even better than it already was. They have helped me in every single aspect of my trip in Australia, giving me a hand when I had to organise my plans.
The room and house were also amazing and in an incredibly fortunate location.
Without doubt, I will repeat with Adrienne in my future next trip to Australia!
