About Us

The Blue Arrow Group is a Homestay provider service for international students, visitors and tourists wishing to live in the comfort of a family home with wholesome home cooked meals, rather than hostel, hotel or apartment style accommodation. It also offers the overseas student and visitor the opportunity to improve English language skills and experience the Australian way of life.

This is an excellent introduction to life in a new country or city with the support of a caring family environment. We assist individuals seeking a "home away from home" experience for a period of several weeks or months.

We assist both international and Australian students attending universities or language colleges in the Brisbane area.

We are also able to assist all visitors requiring temporary accommodation in the city. Just tell us your budget and we can organize it for you.

Homestay is recommended for the following reasons:
