- Tamara (10/5): The most amazing island stay - Olympia and her husband Antony were both so amazing, incredibly friendly and very accommodating. We made this booking last minute and were so happy that we found such amazing accommodation. We are definitely going to come back and stay again. This was a great first experience!!!
- Erin (10/5): Beautiful island getaway - Amazing location, so peaceful! Wonderful hosts and would definitely stay again! Highly recommend to everyone wanting to get out of the city, especially bird lovers. Fantastic breakfast (reply to host email after booking and take cash). Have your morning cuppa in paradise!
- Anne (8/5): An experience of island life - We love the use of the kayaks and the experience of being on the island. Loved the access to other islands by ferry which was free. We were glad to have the space to ourselves. The space isn’t very private . The bats at night are noisy
- Karla (8/5): Great location to island hop from. My mum and I had a great weekend, thank you - It was a different kind of weekend. Away from the hustle and bustle, so peaceful, beautiful birds singing, sleep ins, delicious breakfast.
- Tracey (6/5): It was ok for one night - Beautiful location. Quiet and peaceful. Nice gardens Room was small but comfortable Milk in the bar fridge expired in October 2024 Not sure how long the bottle of water had been there No coffee, tea or cups No under cover area to sit when it rained, stuck in your room
- Kemp (10/5): Exceptional - Surroundings The cyclone making a mess after
- Shaniah (10/5): Exceptional - Great stay for our team working on the island, something different to where we'd usually put them in but they said it was fantastic

- Sharron (10/5): A tranquil paradise with a very relaxing vibe and easy access to all that Lamb Island offers - The gardens and the location The building works next door
- Jacquelyn (8/5): Birdsongs Aplenty.. - Pleasant surrounds amongst the trees and birds and close to the water. Loved the outdoor shower with very hot water. Super comfy bed in a neat tent space. Lucky had brought a torch as sensor lights not working and no power also for kettle on kitchen bench.
- Susan (10/5): Guy made all the difference for our stay. He is very friendly and helpful. It was our pleasure to meet him. - The setting is very natural and quiet. No one else was there so it was very private. The bugs and cane toads.
- Sharron (9/5): Breakfasts cooked by Ola are suberb and the garden setting a joy. - My hosts,Ant and Ola, were very accommodating, gracious and very helpful with my thousand queries regarding Lamb Island The cactus pot plant near the toilet
- Penelope (9/5): Superb -
- Gorman (4/5): Disappointing -
- Emma (10/5): Super relaxing - The breakfast was delicious and made with a lot of care. Great location to explore and unwind away from the busy city, surroundings were so beautiful. Bed and room were comfortable. Owners also prepared guides and suggestions for good places to go explore and eat which were really useful. It's always a joy to stay here. Thanks Ant and Ola 😊 Nothing, it was an awesome stay.
- Dawn (6/5): Pleasant -
- Lemesurier (10/5): Absolutely amazing hosts - Had a great few days relaxing visiting family, birdsong retreat was fantastic, comfortable, clean, very warm and friendly... Breakfast was absolutely amazing and would most definitely highly recommend staying here, I'll be back ☺️
- Brooke (10/5): Exceptional -
- Will (8/5): Very good -
- Alyse (4/5): Great location, lovely Island and people. A few Mozzies! - The outdoor shower is first class, lovely and hot with plenty of pressure and is well done, the same for the outside WC. This would be the first Air BNB that would like you to pay for breakfast?, very disappointing. Why is it an Air BNB? Location is very lovely if there are no host gathering above your head or arguments that can be heard. Cooking facilities are very poor though cooking facilities were especially asked for, and had to ask for a toaster and dishes for cereal. BBQ was not cleaned and there was a very smelly bin. There is no where to sit or cook outside of the tent rooms if it is raining. The solar lighting outside runs out very quickly and we had to use our phones to continue to cook as the spot light that the host must turn on shines out away from the cooking bench. Advertised as luxury, it is clearly not.
- Amanda (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent hosting and facilities. Would not hesitate to stay again.
- Whitbread (6/5): Pleasant -
- Derek (10/5): Superb the best - Best breakfast I have ever had Hosts ant+ola best hosts you could ever get,any problem they help you, Even dive us on sightseeing of island,birdsong is good name as you only hear birds 🐦 singing There is nothing anyone could dislike as you have everything you could want
- Tom (9/5): Superb -
- Emma (10/5): Exceptional - Breakfast was so fresh and amazing! Room was homey and comfy. The scenery was beautiful and transport, with the ferry to get you to other islands to explore and the Lamb bus to get you around the island. Ant and Oly were so lovely and knowledgeable on what the islands could offer and best ways to get around. I picked this place to relax and reset, and my stay here definitely achieved that. Great value for money, will definitely come back for another stay.
- Luc (9/5): Perfecto ! - Very nice and peaceful place - warm welcome - will come back asap for sure ! N/A
- Caroline (10/5): Exceptional - Location, facilities, staff. Nothing.
- Bridget (10/5): What a combination: Island time, garden floral delights, tropical serenades and gourmet breaky! - Wow! What a find. We lucked into this BnB at the last minute because of a cancellation and found a true gem. Our hosts were delightful, sharing local knowledge (and helping us get to places), allowing the use of e-bikes, kayaks and delicious breakfasts. once you get out to the Bay Islands off Redland Bay, all the local ferries are free so we went island hopping one day - what a treat! We definitely want to come back. Can't imagine anything better.
