I spent almost two months staying with Paula and Paul with my partner Mathilde. We were extremely well welcomed. Their house is beautiful and perfectly located, close to the center of Byron. The tasks are accessible to everyone, and Paula supports us every day, taking the time to explain things and help us. The accommodation matches the description perfectly, with everything you need provided. I highly recommend this experience if you want to fully enjoy Byron. Above all, Paula and Paul are very kind, caring, and attentive people

We had a great experience staying with Paula as a couple. Communication was clear and easy from the start, and we felt welcome right away. The location is perfect, close to the beach and the centre of Byron Bay, while still calm and peaceful. Tasks were well explained, fair, and well-organised. The accommodation was as described, comfortable and private. Paula and her family are kind, respectful and welcoming hosts who give volunteers space and independence, creating a warm and positive environment. We truly enjoyed discovering Byron Bay in a local and authentic way. David & Mathilde

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 🌸😊
