I had an absolutely wonderful stay with Joanie! She is such a kind and warm host—you immediately feel welcome, almost like being at home. We had really nice conversations, and it was always interesting listening to her.
The accommodation is beautiful, right by the sea, with an amazing beach house vibe. It’s the perfect place to relax and enjoy the atmosphere.
Overall, it was a great experience, and we also got to explore Townsville, which made it even more special.
I would highly recommend staying with Joanie!

The name “the home peace the home” is 100% true. The last 2 weeks living with Joan felt like a dream that went by so quickly. She is incredible, lovely and treated us like good friends from the first second and I miss her and her positive energy already! The work is simple and fair, Joan is flexible and easy to work with, you can always talk to her. The tasks consist of tasks around the house, depending on what is currently on and what the weather is like. You get a meal a day, which was always healthy, fresh and delicious. 100% Recommended if you look for a place to have a calm time.

Caroline, Your happy faces and disposition is second to none! I miss my kitchen hands... meals just aren't the same since you have left here!

We had a really good time at Joans. I can just recommend it. Joan is really welcoming and kind. She makes really nice food for you every day ( you can decide if it is breakfast, lunch or diner). She takes a lot of effort into her volunteers and makes sure that everyone feels good. The volunteering was more then fair. We helped for example to clean her land from the palm leaves or stuff like that. She also drives you almost everywhere you want. The apartment she owns is a dream. You can see kangaroos and other animals everyday. Also the beach and the pool is a dream. Thanks for all❤️
