Absolute Beachfront House in Palm Beach
We had the most luxurious long weekend, as soon as we stepped in the door it was like the external world just melted away. Everyone slept amazingly, the kitchen was well equipped with everything you need and the ocean view was just incredible.

Oceanview Retreat... Best views on the mountain
This space was absolutely magical, waking up to the sunrise was phenomenal. Perfect for parent get away. Can't wait to go back. Cathy and Warwick were warm and helpful.

Romantic Guest House with Mountain Views
The cottage was beautiful. So many thoughtful touches. We loved the spray for the pillows, and all of the throws to keep warm. It was so nice to sit on the deck and watch the birds. Very peaceful and relaxing. Would highly recommend! Thanks Shelley!

Burleigh Break Room 12
The space and Anna's hospitality are incredible, she was very kind and polite. Very close to the beach, good location. The only negative point was the noise from the construction, there is construction almost everywhere in the city. I highly recommend the room, it is very good for 2 people.

Surfers Paradise 1 Bed + stunning views & pool
Beautiful place, 5-10 minute walk to Cavill ave. Amazing kitchen and amenities.

Beachfront Bliss for Two: air-conditioned, parking
We had the most incredible stay at this beautiful Airbnb. The location honestly couldn't be better — right on the water, with breathtaking views and such a peaceful atmosphere, yet still close to everything. Waking up to the sunrise glistening on the water every morning from bed was perfect. The house itself was spotless, spacious, and thoughtfully designed with everything we needed. Plenty of scenic places to relax, eat and drink! Our hosts were absolutely lovely — so warm and welcoming. They made us feel right at home and went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. We couldn’t recommend this place more. If you're looking for a relaxing getaway in an unbeatable location, this is it!
