Neighbourhood

Located in peaceful Koala Beach, our home is in a safe, friendly and quiet neighbourhood. We live in Koala Beach estate which is a wildlife sanctuary and no dogs or cats allowed. There is abundant birdlife and wildlife in the estate, we even had a koala in the tree in our front yard recently. Our neighbours are all lovely people with kids. Across the road is a reserve so you look out to trees, not houses which is beautiful.

Getting to my home

Our house is close to the Gold Coat Airport (25 minutes drive). You can take a taxi or Uber from there. From Brisbane Airport, it is about 1 hour and 40 mins driving time (depending on traffic). Having a car while here is recommended as there are not many public transport options being a small coastal town. We may be open to car exchange too!

Nearest airport

Gold Coast (Coolangatta) airport is 25 mins drive.

Getting around

It's about a 5 minute drive into town for shops, cafes and groceries or you can ride bikes which will take about 15 minutes. There is limited public transport in this area, except for buses. Uber is available.

Abby and Dan

We're a family of four – Abby and Dan plus our 6 year old girl and 4 year old boy. Abby works for local government in communications and marketing and Dan owns a swimming pool business. We love to travel and have been to the USA, Canada, Asia, NZ and Europe although now we have little ones, we are slightly more limited with our choices. We thought we'd give home exchange a try so we can still enjoy travelling and visiting new places, but with the comforts of being in a home while we have small children. We haven't done a home exchange yet, but we look forward to our first one! We would always aim to leave every home better than when we found it and look after it as if it was our own. We are extremely clean, tidy and respectful and we hope anyone staying in our home would be the same (this community seems like wonderful people so we know this would be the case!) :) Some places we are interested in visiting: Overseas: USA (Colorado, Montana or others), Canada, New Zealand, Hawaii, Bali. Within Australia: Sydney, Coffs Harbour, Noosa, Yamba, Gold Coast, Perth, Tasmania, Brisbane, Sunshine Coast (or open to other options too!). We are currently trial members but will upgrade to premium when we are ready to start our first exchange. My daughter is in school so we are a bit limited by school holidays (ish), but still open to suggestions. We recently renovated our home to add the downstairs area, and a new garage and front yard. I have a few more photos I need to take to complete the listing which I will do when the front is completely finished in the next few months.
