Homestay
Enjoy your Homestay
The Rockhampton community has opened their hearts and their homes to help accommodate the large influx of visitors expected during Beef Australia 2012.
To assist in meeting the increasing demand for a range of local accommodation solutions during Beef Australia 2012, we have established a community service based Homestay accommodation option as a means of addressing the ongoing accommodation shortage in the region over the week of the event.
Beef Australia is matching local residents willing to open their homes with visitors in need of accommodation.
Beef Australia will act as a facilitation / booking agent, matching up the facilities in homes offered by local hosts, with the accommodation needs of visitors, at a per person per night fee set by Beef Australia.
All homes will be inspected to ensure they are up to a suitable standard, and hosts will be required to show proof of their public liability insurance, which is generally part of a Home Insurance Policy.
Please note: Due to the strong community response to the program, host applications have been temporarily suspended. However, to fill the list of homes available under Homestay, guest applications are still encouraged via the forms below.
For those interested in booking accommodation, more information about the requirements for Guests is available here.
To formally register your interest, complete the Homestay Program Guest Registration Form here.
For further details, contact Stuart McCartney at Beef Australia.
Note: As the Beef Australia 2012 Homestay Program is a community service designed to overcome a specific event accommodation shortfall, commercial operations and rental properties have not been considered as part of this program. Should a commercial operator or rental properties be interested in offering accommodation they should contact the Beef Australia Office to discuss their proposal separate from this initiative.
