Mel’s large home was absolutely fantastic!! We arrived to a spotlessly clean home and a bottle of wine to welcome us 😃 The 2 levels suited us very well (2 bedrooms on each level) and we enjoyed the swimming pool and all the modern conveniences of this home. The view across to the ocean was spectacular and we watched whales jumping out of the ocean every day. A short drive away was Terrigal and there are some local cafes and restaurants to enjoy as well. We really enjoyed the Italian restaurant ‘Lagune’ which was 4 minutes walk from Mel’s home. I’d highly recommend Mel’s home to other PLU’s 👌👌👌👌👌 Thanks so much Mel 😃😃

Mel's home is beautiful, modern, and immaculate. It feels like a vacation home with beautiful views of the ocean and a local sandy beach. And yet, it has all the conveniences and comforts of a primary residence. The kitchen is well stocked and well organized. We enjoyed the sunrise over the ocean every morning; it was amazing. There are many beautiful beaches nearby. Wamberal beach is only a 5-minute walk. Terrigal Beach and Avoca beach are both amazing. There is a reptile park with lovely birds and Koalas, where we learned about the three deadliest snakes in the world. There are many national parks and nature reserves nearby. We only had the time to visit Bouddi National Park since we made a trip to Brisbane from there. The Bouddi Coastal Walk offers beautiful views of the blue ocean and passes multiple pristine beaches with strong ocean waves. Mel is a great host. She took great pains to ensure our comfort. Communications were great too. In sum, we greatly enjoyed our stay and would not hesitate to exchange with Mel again.

We had a wonderful stay at Mel’s and her families house. The home is incredibly modern and gives off a real sense of luxury. It’s located just a short walk from the beach, making it perfect for easy access to surfing and seaside relaxation. All the bedrooms are beautifully decorated with very comfortable beds. The kitchen is spacious and fully equipped, and there are several living areas with large TVs—perfect for relaxing after a day out. One of the highlights was the ping pong table, which added a lot of fun to our stay, as well as the lovely pool that offered plenty of privacy. Communication with Mel was smooth and easy. She was extremely helpful before our arrival, and quick to assist with any questions we had during our stay. We would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a luxurious getaway just outside of Sydney!

Mel was a fabulous host/exchange partner. She was very communicative and so wonderful to work with and her home was absolutely beautiful. Her view was incredible and we definitely left a piece of our heart in Wamberal/Terrigal. We had such an amazing exchange and will be forever grateful that our stay introduced us to such a wonderful place in this world. ♥️

What a home! Mel's place is amazing, light and spacious, connected with it's beautiful natural beachside location. We arrived smoothly to easy parking parking and access - the driveway looks narrow, but is fine. The main living areas are upstairs, with wonderful ocean views. It was very special to watch whales passing by each day. The house is very well equipped and comfortable, with everything we needed for our stay. Mel provided lots of information to help us make the most of our visit. As we were visiting to spend time with our grandsons, a huge bonus for us was the ping pong table, the scene of fierce competition:-) We enjoyed walking the beach, visiting local cafes and an especially lovely restaurant, SUQ. We'd love to come back to Wamberal some time.
