This stay was delightful and a god send for me given how quickly the hosts responded to my request. I was treated to a warm, clean place to stay plus delicious vegan home cooked meal and interesting conversation especially around an upcoming 'Seated Photography' exhibition I look forward to seeing more of. The hosts were also accommodating in dropping to the airport at the very early 6am time. I recommend this homestay experience for other travellers and last minute accommodation strays like me.

Maureen and Richie were wonderful hosts and very accommodating. Their location is very handy to Massey bus and shops. They were very caring and made sure I was comfortable with my needs. A nice home and facilities. Well recommended to all.

It was a very big pleasure to stay with Maureen. She is unbelievable friendly and helpful and has a lot of experience to host people. She took me to a lot of very exciting and nice places and helped me with all smaller or bigger troubles facing during my stay. I only have positive feedback about this homestay and can't recommend it highly enough.

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?

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?
