Warick Redwood believes Noosa s lifestyle needs special protections. He said accommodation providers also had to be held accountable for preserving the neighbouring amenity and his night manager was on call to deal with any complaints. However, he said his own home was surrounded by three short stay rentals and he had to ask rental guests to stop swimming at midnight so he could get up and work in the morning.
