I had a lovely 5 month stay here you will too! Melissa and Stephen made me feel right at home and helped me settle into living here.
September 2019
To stay with Melissa and her family was a wonderful choice! The room and their house is really nice and clean. They showed me so much of Australias east coast and the Australian culture and I am so grateful for that. Since the first day I fell in love with their lovely dog Franklin. All in all, I couldn't be happier with the experience, I would always stay with them again and If could I would give more than 5 hearts!
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?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 199 $£€ for longer term bookings) using a choice of payment methods: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal (not available in certain countries). 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?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
