Family holiday
Lovely property with amazing art the pictures dont do the size of the living areas justice,,open plan with plenty of room for the family .The owners are very helpful and quick to respond to any problems and are easy to communicate with. Very close to all amenities with just a quick walk to the local shops and a leisurely walk to the beach.

Chevron a great location
We had a 2 week stay here, the house is very spacious and close to everything. The only negatives are insufficient hot water and very poor water pressure. Could be a problem with the freezer as our food was thawing out. Apart from that excellent

Great location
The location was fantastic and it was wonderful to live in a house vs an apartment. The property owners were very helpful too. It would have been good to have more kitchen bowls, serving plates, beach towels, books and games to have in the house as we were visiting from overseas. We would definitely stay there again.

An artist's retreat in the heart of Paradise
Spacious, breezy, and modern where everyone had a space to pick up a book, magazine, or turn on the TV for some relaxing time alone or all together. The perfect retreat to catch up after more than two years oceans apart throughout the pandemic.

Visit to Surfers
This property was exactly as described on the website and suited us down to the ground. It became our home and we were able to entertain our family on a walk in basis. The block of units next door were a overbearing but there were so many public holidays that not much work was done. The location was great for the shops and restaurants on Thomas Drive. Many thanks to Tom and Gina for the use of this lovely home - the art was also very interesting!

Amazing rental
This property is even better than the pictures. It is a beautiful place and the location is perfect. I went there with my mother, husband and 10 month old daughter. Tom and Gina made everything so easy from checkin to checkout. They even brought us a playpen, toys and a highchair because they knew we traveled all the way from Canada with none of that. Would definitely stay there again if we come to the Gold Coast. Amazing 3 weeks spent here.
