I had a fantastic time in Byron and can highly recommend this volunteer job. I was mainly responsible for the garden and really enjoyed the work. Being outdoors is perfect for me, and while a bit of physical fitness is helpful, the tasks are absolutely doable. Paula also pays attention to what she can reasonably expect from each person, which makes the work feel very fair. The accomodation has everything you need, especially a well-equipped kitchen. The best part is the location, you live extremely close to town and the beach, and everything is within walking distance. I'd come back anytime!

I had a lovely time staying there! The location couldn't be better – just a short walk to the bus stop, the town center, and the beach. The tasks were straightforward with clear guidance, and the place was comfortable and gave me plenty of space. I always felt safe and welcomed. I'd definitely stay again!

A beautiful spot where you can support a kind family with light housekeeping and gardening tasks. The work itself is simple and well-organized, with clear instructions so you always know what's expected. The accommodation is cozy and offers plenty of privacy. It's ideal for anyone willing to lend a hand and who also enjoys having their own space, as the host isn't constantly around. Plus, it's in a fantastic location, right near the center. I felt welcome and safe throughout my whole visit 🌸😊

I had a great experience with Paula and her family. They are very lovely, kind and respectful people, even Bowie, the cutest dog in the world💓. They always respected the agreed working hours, and the place where I rested was very comfortable. Paula helped me a lot during my first days in Byron Bay. They are people with whom you can have good communication, I always felt safe. I would definitely stay with them again. I highly recommend it😊

The place is nice and private, while being really close to the beach and city center. Paula was comprehensive when I needed to change my dates and reduce my stay. Hours of work are 17 instead of 15 but it's clear and we'll organized once you get there. Thank you!

Thank you for your feedback. To clarify for future applicants: the work commitment here is 15 hours per week (6 days, 2.5 hours per day, with the 7th day off). Camela had to shorten her stay for personal reasons, which created extra challenges for me and required additional time to find a replacement. As a result, she worked on what would have been her last day off, totaling 17 hours, which I truly appreciated. In the end, the change caused inconvenience for both of us.
