About the host
Hosted by Jo
We moved to Port Macquarie in the early 2000s and quickly fell in love with this beautiful coastal town.
Our family worked together to fully restore and renovate this property in 2020, and it has been such a joy to share it with guests ever since. We love welcoming travellers, helping them feel at home, and sharing local tips so you can make the most of your stay.
Having travelled widely ourselves, we understand the difference that a warm, thoughtful host can make, and we truly enjoy being part of your holiday memories.
