Outgoing, Creative, Sociable
I do not restrict guests to their activities. They are free to feel at home in every way. I recommend places to visit, organize trips and organize what guests would request during their stay.
On a typical day...
I won’t be home a lot.
When I host guests...
I can answer questions but let my guests do their own thing.

My stay at the Fred Hunter Villa in Tiwi exceeded all my expectations. First, Sharon, Collo and their little Tevi are the most friendly and welcoming hosts, that you can imagine and wish for. They will give you all needed local info and help you with your shopping if needed. Also, we went together for the Kongo River kayak trip, which is very close to the villa. The villa itself is set within a beautiful garden and the pool is just an extra bonus, as you can use it any time. You will have a use of all common areas including kitchen to prepare your meals. There is plenty of wildlife around including singing birds. The area around is very green and full of vegetation. The local people are friendly and up for a chat. You can go for nice walks to the nearby beaches and see famous Africa Map pool, which is just next to Twiga campsite, where you can have your meal too. Also, I cycled around with my bike both directions up to the Kongo River and behind and to the Kaya Waa, which was very pleasant, but you need good tyres. You can easily access the villa by local pikipiki or tuktuk, although maybe the roads are not all in the greatest shape. Anyway, I can recommend the place and hopefully will visit it again.
How do I book?
Contact the host about your stay - tell them a little about yourself, why you are staying and ask any questions you have about their homestay. You will be able to book immediately after sending your message.
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.
