5 pairs of Australians take turns hosting each other at their respective vacation rentals all around the country. After each stay, they rate the accommodation (as owners, as the folks staying, and a judge who tags along), hoping to win the competition.
The couples are pretty varied (old, young, mother/daughter, same sex), and, as the show moves along and we get to know them, some of the realness comes through, which, for me, was the most entertaining. The snarkiness and maneuvering is more pronounced as we reach the end (some of them more subtle than others). most notable is the discussion about who will get the master bedroom at each property.
One thing i might change (if i could) in future iterations would be to keep the ongoing scores from the teams. while it fueled some competition-related upsmanship, i think it would be more dramatic to reveal these more near the end.
The personal pride each couple takes in their home is also interesting. The properties are pretty varied as well. A decent, enjoyable watch.
