Homeowner Testimonials

Ben Eldred has been excellent all around! He's very accommodating to my needs to block out days for family and friends over the on-again-off-again Covid period. We look forward to working with Ben and Hometime in the months to come. I would highly recommend Ben!

Adrienne

I love everything about the way Hometime operates. They are very professional and have a superior understanding of how the Airbnb market operates. Their housekeeping is faultless, plus my net investment income has never even been close to what I am receiving now.

Kathryn

Everything was taken care of. Hometime's Hosting Partners really looked after my guests, which shows in the reviews I get. Faultless housekeeping, plus my net investment income has never even been as close to what I am receiving now in all of the 12 years I have owned the property.

Guest Testimonials

We had a great time staying at Belinda's place. Bright, clean, spacious, airy. What more could you ask for from a home that is close walking distance to Mermaid Beach, Pacific Fair and the Broadbeach restaurants!

Mark

Overall great experience with plenty of things to walk to, especially Kirra Beach. Loved being close to coffee and breakfast cafes. Very close to the Gold Coast Airport as well.

Colin

This place is so refreshingly spacious. Very required relaxing time. Hiking in the near vicinity. Nerang shops are only 10-15 mins away. If you are looking for peace and quiet and privacy, it's fantastic. Would be amazing in summer with the pool and outdoor BBQ.
