John since the beginning was friendly, attention and gave me good hints about GC. He has shared good historys tho. I was feeling home staying at his place.

He was helpful and obliging the place was a little older than I was expecting but he kept it very tidy. Also very handy to most places on the Gold coast

Very friendly host who is very accommodating. The place is good with all basic amenities included.
The location is a bit isolated, and would recommend getting your own transport if you are here.October 2023
Great man. Has travelled a lot and has some great tales.
Very helpful and caring and a great sense of humour. Doesn't ask too many questions and lets you do your thing.
I've had a very relaxing and layed back no pressure stay. Highly recommended - Robbie KrupskiHost reply

He is very nice. The house was conveniently located near a bus stop, making it easy to access the beach and supermarket. The neighborhood was also safe, allowing for nighttime walks. The nearby park provided opportunities for walking and running, making for a fulfilling stay!
バス停が近くてすぐにビーチにも行けるし、スーパーも近くて買い物もすぐできて便利です。家がある場所も安全で夜遅くに歩いても大丈夫でした。すぐ近くに公園があって散歩やランニングもできて充実した滞在でした！Host reply

How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
When can I share my contact details?
