Rodney was the perfect host. From the moment I arrived, he made me feel like part of the household. He was incredibly polite, welcoming, and always included me in everything. During my stay, he showed me around, took me surfing, and introduced me to his friends and housemate. Everyone was super nice, and it was great getting to know them.

Andrea stayed 2 weeks in November 2025 and was an amazing help around the house. She spring cleaned the kitchen and pantry cupboards, washed the windows, repotted some plants and cut and fastened some timber boards onto the face of a deck. She was friendly and always up for a chat so was great company to have around. Highly recommend to host her.

I had such a great time with Rodney! He took me out to go surfing two times and we did multiple things together, like going to markets, having a Barbecue or making a fire. The work I did was super simple and not much at all. I felt super comfortable with him and he's a very friendly, calm guy who I can warmly recommend as a host ☺️
