Meet Beth
Outgoing, Creative, Sociable
I love international travel and have stayed in many guest houses myself. To show others this fun lifestyle, I create home sharing games and content, and host workshops and events.
On a typical day...
I’m sociable and have my friends over a lot.
When I host guests...
I’m helpful and hands on. I can show them where to go and help them get there.

We are a family of four, with two grown kids who come and go. We've been hosting for 20 years and chose this house because it's perfect for hosting guests and events!
Our best match is a guest who is looking to explore the area and learn about local life. It's a friendly family situation, so may not be ideal for business travelers or others who just want a cheaper alternative to a hotel.

I highly recommend this place! What an amazing family!! Wonderful house, nice room, great area, very experienced with hosting people. It felt like a second home. I’d definitely love to come back one day.

Beth is a friendly and gracious host with bright and engaging young-adult children. The house is lovely and and situated in a location convenient to shopping, theatre, restaurants, and the beach.
The guest room and bath are attractive, clean, and comfortable. Beyond the accommodations, I enjoyed interacting with the family and learning about their passions for multilingual teaching, study, and international travel. I definitely recommend this location as a positive HomeStay experience!Host reply
Thank you, Wendy! It was really great meeting you. Anna was sorry she didn't have a chance to say goodbye. Hope all your writing projects go well, and please let us know when one goes out into the world.
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.
