The view from Shayne's Mount Hotham unit took my breath away as it was so beautiful. His unit was well appointed and very comfortable. Shayne was friendly and easy to communicate with. His family in turn left my house in Inverloch impeccably clean. Thanks Shayne for a great home swap. Ann and Roger

Shayne and his family are absolutely delightful. We loved hosting them and would happily recommend them. We developed a great rapport with them and they left our house in perfect order. We really appreciated coming home to find our beds made up for us!

Shane and his lovely family have recently stayed in my home on a non-simultaneous swap on the sunshine coast, Queensland. True to their word the home was just as clean when they left as when they arrived! I was very pleased when I returned home. There was not one issue or problem and I enjoyed meeting Shane and his family for coffee by the beach during their home swap. I can fully recommend them and would definitely swap with them again! Yours, Martin.
