I had a great experience with Steven. He is very kind and welcoming, and it's easy to feel at home with him. The work is flexible and straightforward, and he's always happy to help if you need anything. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Steven is very kind, friendly and welcoming, the hours & tasks are very flexible and easy and the house is very beautiful. When there is no guests you get to live in the mansion and use the pool and cinema and everything which is very nice. I had a lot of fun and would definitely come back! Everyone is very friendly and it is great to meet other people who are moving to Australia or travelling. I couldn't recommend it more 😊

The stay at Steven's mansion was absolutely lovely! He is a very generous and welcoming person. The work hours are very flexible so keep that in mind and be proactive. You can always plan days off ahead of time. The work wasn't hard and we had an amazing time doing tasks that each of us had strengths in. Steven let us use the house whenever there weren't any guests (pool, billiards, poker, cinema). He also let us use his car for daytrips to nearby national parks. You don't have to go out for shopping as you can order groceries to the house. Thank you for everything! We'd love to be back!

Steven was a super gracious host and instantly made me feel welcome and comfortable! The house is very welcoming and he was always making sure we have everything we needed. The work was more than fair and when there wasn't guests at the house we got to live in the luxury of the mansion. Steven is really easy going and such a fun guy. He truly made the experience fun! I would definitely recommend!

I had an amazing time exploring the Gold Coast whilst staying with Steve in his awesome home, Steve was fun and welcoming. The hours are incredibly flexible and work to your schedule so you have plenty of time to get everything out of the area that you want to see. Couldn't recommend it more.
