About ESI, Home Stay Specialists Gold Coast Queensland
Eastern Shores International (ESI) began in 1999 with two caring mothers wanting to provide friendly, safe homestay for students and young visitors.
As ESI's popularity has increased due to the quality of customer care that we provide, we have expanded, and now offer many more quality services. Even with this expansion we have maintained the high level of personalized support that our clients have come to expect from us. Today, the ESI team remains committed to making sure all homestays are successful, safe and enjoyable – and still done with a personal touch – the ESI Way
