About 1770 Beach Accommodation

At 1770 Beach Accommodation, we are passionate about delivering exceptional stays that not only create lasting memories for our guests but also drive growth and revenue for property owners.

We are a family-run business, comprised of Richard, Jo and Jasmin.

As Principal of 1770 Beach Accommodation, Richard brings decades of expertise in data-driven property management, combining market insight with exceptional results for property owners.

In the 1990s, Richard developed Papua New Guinea’s Village Services Database, a GIS tool used nationally to optimise infrastructure investment. Today, he applies that analytical precision through our in-house GIS, offering real-time tracking of holiday letting, sales, and rentals in Agnes Water and 1770.

Daily updates on market trends allow 1770 Beach Accommodation to accurately value properties, maximising financial returns and increasing property values for our clients.

Richard holds a PhD in Behavioural Economics, specialising in online consumer behaviour. His research helps us effectively connect investors, tenants, and holidaymakers with their perfect property, boosting occupancy rates and repeat bookings.

Beyond analytics, Richard ensures comprehensive owner support—from securing reliable tenants and trusted maintenance contractors to providing a responsive 24/7 emergency service, protecting your investment’s value.

At 1770 Beach Accommodation, our superior market insights, personalised service, and commitment to outstanding results give you confidence that your property is in expert hands.

Jasmin, our Holiday Guest Services specialist, carefully manages each guest’s journey from booking to checkout.

Holding a Master’s in Psychology and extensive travel experience, Jasmin has a keen sense for creating memorable stays. Her talent for crafting high-converting property listings showcases the natural beauty of Agnes Water and 1770, turning casual browsers into eager guests.

A proud local, Jasmin played a key role in designing our website, ensuring it authentically captures the region’s charm. Recognised by the Gladstone Region and Queensland’s hosting community for her warmth and professionalism, Jasmin consistently delivers exceptional service.

Her personalised approach earns us regular five-star reviews and repeat guests who return year after year.

When you choose 1770 Beach Accommodation, you’re choosing a team that genuinely cares about your property and guests. Let us unlock your property’s potential and create unforgettable experiences.

Jo’s passion for property management comes from her own experience as a homeowner and landlord. Wanting tenants and guests to enjoy the standard she expected herself, she took charge of her own investments—making sure every home was welcoming, safe, and well cared for.

Travel has sharpened her eye for great hospitality. After staying in countless places worldwide, Jo knows what makes a holiday truly memorable. At 1770 Beach Accommodation, she uses this know-how to deliver seamless guest stays while keeping properties in top shape.

As Owner Liaison and Housekeeping Coordinator, Jo plays a key role in day-to-day operations. With a background in team leadership and a knack for clear communication, she works closely with trusted local businesses to keep every property spotless and guest-ready.

In 2024, Jo added a real estate licence to her skillset, further cementing her expertise. Her attention to detail and proactive approach not only protect property value but also build guest loyalty and maximise returns for owners.

For owners wanting a dedicated manager who leads with care and precision, Jo is the perfect partner.
