About the Homestay
- Welcomes
- Males
- Females
- Couples
- Families
- Students
We have been a Homestay Family for over 20 years. Now 'empty nesters' we look forward to continuing to open our home doing Homestay. We can also add extras such as Day Tours, ESL, etc.
During the school year we often have International Students attending our local high school - at those times we are considered 'full'. When we don't have high school students, we really enjoy sharing our home and culture with guests from around the world.
We have also customized vacations for singles and families who want to see as much of our beautiful Island in a short time. This can include guided tours, transportation and other 'extras'. We have also done 'ESL Holidays' for those wishing to improve their English abilities in a intensive but fun way.

How do I book?
Contact the host to check their availability and ask them any questions you have about staying with them. Once the host confirms they’re available for your dates, you can complete your booking.
When do I pay?
Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) using a choice of payment methods: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal (not available in certain countries). You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
When can I share my contact details?
Host and Guest email address, phone number and home address will be exchanged in a confirmation email sent to both immediately after a booking is completed. It's against our policy for Guests and Hosts to exchange direct contact details via our messaging system.
