We loved Gennys house. It is so beautiful, tidy and welcoming. I really loved Gennys garden. Such an awesome place to relax with friends. Private and in a fantastic spot on the Gold Coast. Real treat for us Kiwis. Highly recommend and have favorites for another day!

We had a wonderful stay at Magnolia Beach Cottage! Some of our highlights included relaxing on the deck in the sun, soaking up the peaceful surroundings, and making the most of easy access to local activities like golf and a fantastic day trip to the Byron Bay lighthouse. Communication with Genny and Wayne from start to finish was fantastic – they shared videos, checked in with us during our stay, and made sure we had everything we needed. Thanks again for a lovely stay!

We had a lovely 10 days on the Gold Coast while staying in Genny’s home. She made us feel very welcome and left lovely treats of wine and cheeses. Genny was available throughout our stay to answer any of our questions or concerns. We really enjoyed her lovely tropical garden and decks. The therapeutic spa was the icing on the cake. Genny left maps and tourist information that was very helpful. We made good use of the public transportation and found we could get to beaches and shopping centers within one hour by either the train or the bus.

This was our first 'completed' exchange ever and I did not expect it would literally help restore my faith in humanity a bit :) It was March 2025 and just days away from our once-in-a-lifetime trip to Australia, Genny was thoughtful enough to give me a heads up that a cyclone was expected in the area so I should monitor closely. She was incredibly knowledgeable, pragmatic, empathetic and super friendly through the communication despite this being one of the worst weather events the Gold Coast would have seen in 30 years. If it wasn't for Genny's constant communication, our trip would've gone very badly. However, due to Genny's proactive communications and kindness, we agreed not to move forward with the exchange and were able to make the necessary adjustments to our itinerary to enjoy the rest of our trip to Australia. Genny, thank you very much for being a gem of a person. I hope one day we are able to host you all in Toronto, meet you in the Gold Coast or elsewhere in the world!

We had such a lovely stay in Genevieve’s home and it was a huge bonus that we got to hang out with her and Wayne, we experienced true Aussie hospitality and had such a great time out on their boat! Her home is so cozy we felt right at home, the new decks are so nice and the hut tub was a such a treat. We had a really nice time exploring not only the beaches but also the mountains, the Gold Coast is beautiful.
