Tara is a friendly and gracious host, offering excellent communication and advice from the outset. Thanks to Tara, we experienced Edinburgh at the most exciting time of year, truly like locals. Her home is beautiful and the location is stunning — just a short walk through the Meadows into central Edinburgh in about 20 minutes. We truly had the best time and are extremely grateful for the opportunity to tick off a bucket-list destination. Our family enjoyed a wonderful New Year thanks to Tara and her family. Many thanks as well for all the festive goodies and thoughtful treats left for us. I will definitely miss that amazing view from your bay window whilst enjoying my morning coffee. Looking forward to hosting you in Sorrento soon.

Blandine & Jean Pierre were the loveliest guests. Communication was excellent and everything went very smoothly.

Susan & Alistair’s Manhattan home was absolutely fantastic—very spacious by New York standards and perfectly located, just steps away from everything. My family and I couldn’t have been happier. After long days exploring the city, we loved unwinding on their deck with a cold beer while taking in the incredible view of the Empire State Building. Meeting Susan in person was the cherry on top—she is such a kind, generous, and welcoming host. We’re so grateful for the opportunity to stay in their gorgeous home and for their wonderful hospitality. We adore NYC, and Susan & Alistair will always have an open invitation to visit us in Sorrento ❤️

Leigh and her boys were an absolute delight! After chatting for over a year, it was such a joy to finally host them. Leigh was the perfect house guest—kind, respectful, and wonderfully flexible, especially as this was a back-to-back exchange and I wasn’t able to be there to oversee the final home prep. She and her family gave our cats so much love and care, which I’m incredibly grateful for. Communication was seamless and fun throughout. I’d welcome them back anytime without hesitation!

Visiting San Diego was a dream come true, and our exchange with Katie truly made it unforgettable. Her beautiful California home is perfectly located near Lake Murray, in a quiet and welcoming neighborhood, yet close to everything we wanted to see. From stunning beaches to charming towns and incredible restaurants, we loved exploring it all. Katie was amazing in recommending places to eat—we tried every one, and the food in San Diego did not disappoint! Her spacious, stylish home was such a privilege to stay in, and she made us feel so welcome with a thoughtful, personal gift on arrival. Katie is a warm and wonderful host, and we can’t wait to welcome her and her lovely family to Sorrento in the future ❤️

Camilla’s home is warm and welcoming with a gorgeous back garden. We enjoyed a fantastic family Easter break in this beautiful part of Germany. Close to fab shops and easy access to nearby attractions. Camilla was integral in helping me plan our itinerary which ended up taking us to beautiful and traditional German villages along the Mosel, fairytale castles and some of the most amazing restaurants! We even took a cruise down the Rhine which was lovely. Finishing off our trip with an overnight trip to Frankfurt city which we loved and is only 1 hour away from Camilla & Peter’s place. All in all the destination blew me away which was quite a surprise! Loved it. Camilla is easy to work with and extremely organised. Thank you for introducing us to this enchanting part of Germany.

We have just spent the most wonderful family Christmas at Katies gorgeous home in the Peak District. Katie went out of her way to ensure we had a perfect stay, even to the extent of putting up Xmas decs for us and taking in packages so I didn't have to carry them from Italy. Our communication has been seamless from the outset and Katie stayed in touch during our stay even though she was on the other side of the world! Their place is spacious and homely, filled with so much family love. Location is perfect and so peaceful, we enjoyed just looking out on the the fields and cozying up by the log fire. Peak district villages are on your doorstep and our drive through the Derbyshire Dales as the sun was setting was insanely beautiful. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your absolutely lovely home Katie. I do hope we can come back in the future :-) Vanessa & Boys

Our exchange with Susan & Murray in Mission, at the heart of the Okanagan Valley was just perfect from the outset. Communication has always been fluid and Susan was a massive help to me during the planning of the exchange. Visiting the Okanagan has been a dream of mine for many many years now so I was delighted when my exchange was accepted. Susan & Murray's home is lovely, lot's of space and in a quiet and happy neighbourhood. We were so close to many amazing wineries and we took full advantage of this ( had to buy a new suitcase to bring the many bottles of wine we bought home with us). Kelowna is actually way bigger than I had imagined and we literally explored on land and from the beautiful lake. We had glorious weather and hit the different beaches daily. Great restaurants in and around the town too. Really loved our time in the area and would dearly love to come back someday. Susan & Murray are kind, experienced home exchangers and we are very grateful for the time we were able to spend in their gorgeous home. I look forward to hosting you in Sorrento in 2026! Hopefully we get to meet this time :-) Thanks for everything. Vanessa & boys xxx

Marina and her gorgeous family were incredible exchange partners. From the outset our communications have been fun and we've built a lovely friendship from that. I know how much Marina adores Italy and I am extremely grateful that we got to host her in Sorrento. They loved our home but moreover loved our cats. I think Henderson was loved on 24/7 and would have happily left for the USA with them! Our home was cared for with so much love and respect and we kept in touch daily during the exchange with updates and pics, which I looked forward to each day. Thank you for dealing with all the small issues that come up with back -2- back exchanges and for helping with the laundry - I really appreciate that. We returned to a perfectly clean home and a couple of sad cats missing them :-( Please don't hesitate in exchanging with Marina, she's a pro and an absolute gem. Grazie cara. Non è un addio, è un arrivederci a dopo. Baci xxx

Ciara and her lovely family were the perfect home exchange partners. We visited their fabulous home in Dublin at Easter so it was really exciting to welcome them to Sorrento this summer. Our home was cared for to the highest standards and our cats were just adored by the girls. Ciara was so kind as to help me prepare for an exchange coming in after they left which was highly appreciated. Our home was left spotlessly clean and our plants watered and taken care of. Our communication has been seamless and so much fun, I'm really appreciative of the friendship we've built. I would welcome Ciara and her family back absolutely anytime and if you ever have the change to exchange with them just do it - your home is in the best possible hands. Thank you so much and I hope we can do this again! Vanessa and the boys & Hendo & Night! BACI xxxx

Patsy is the sweetest and most lovely lady. Our exchange at her home was one of the happiest weeks of our vacation. Communication with Patsy has been kind and incredibly helpful since I reached out last year. Spending time on the Sunshine Coast was a dream for us and we made every moment count. The location of Patsy & Bills home in Halfmoon Bay was ideal, so close to Sechelt & Gibsons. Fresh flowers, freshly baked soda bread and a basket of yummy local treats were gratefully received when we arrived. Patsy was integral in the planning of our time in the area and gave us some fab tips. She kindly checked in with us everyday to ensure we were OK. Their home was so spacious we didn't know what to do with ourselves! We didn't even use most of the rooms. Having the beautiful garden full of colours and flowers set in stunning landscaping to relax in after dinner with a glass of wine was just the icing on the cake. Patsy was even so kind as to place allergy pillows on my sons bed and cut back the lavender bush he is allergic too. The beaches in the area are so serene, we didn't have the best weather but as BC needed the rains we couldn't feel bad. The scenery is to die for and there is a great selection of restaurants and shopping in the area. All in all we felt completely welcomed and totally at home in Patsy & Bills dream place. We loved every moment of her super kind hospitality. I do hope we can welcome them to Sorrento at some point in the future as my only regret is that we didn't get to meet. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your home, we are so grateful. Everything was just perfect. Lots of love to you both, Vanessa & the boys xxxx

We've just spent the most magical 3 days on Salt Spring Island in Tara's charming cabin. Our communication has been really enjoyable from the very start, so much so that we will absolutely stay in touch and I consider that a lovely new friendship has been grown over the 8 months we have been planning this exchange. Tara has anticipated everything you may need in the cozy cabin and we truly appreciated all the personal and kind touches along the way, from the gorgeous local body & hair products to the chilled wine. Beds were super comfy and we thoroughly enjoyed being surrounded by nature. We managed to really relax after such a hectic work year so far and get our jet lag under control! Must mention how sweet the resident goats & alpacas are, and we spent a lot of time just watching them going about their day. Tara helped us navigate the island, gave excellent suggestions on where to eat and what to see, without her we wouldn't have experienced the island so well. Everything about this exchange was perfect, from the beginning, during and being sent off to the ferry port with cream cakes and traditional breakfast breads. Totally and utterly spoiled and we can't that you enough Tara, we loved every moment. Looking forward to reciprocating your gracious hospitality in Sorrento. Lots of love and gratitude, Vanessa, Gianluca, Steph & Noah xxxx

Where to start! Oh my goodness what a brilliant exchange! Ciara's home takes your breath away when you open that beautiful door and see how big it is!! I almost fell over (and that's before a Guinness!). So much space. so beautifully decorated and full of family love. Myself and my boys loved every moment in Dublin and this fabulous home. We've been chatting for so long now, we've become friends, we've actually had a lot of laughs planning this non-sim exchange. I'm so thankful for all the help and advice received as it enabled us to make the most of our time in Dublin. We left so full and so exhausted we needed a day to not eat and recover ha ha! Thank you for the fab welcome gifts, so kind. Much needed family time spent in a wonderful home and city. Once in a while and exchange happens that blows you away - this was one of them. Until August - we will see you in Sorrento then. THANK YOU. Vanessa & the boys.

I have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Rita during the planning of this fantastic exchange. Our non-sim couldn't have gone any better and Rita was so gracious and accepting of the less that perfect bits and bobs that cropped up from a back to back exchange - such as helping me out with laundry! Rita, Chris and Liam looked after my home with respect, care and empathy, I would never have known they had even been here apart from the thoughtful pics and updates and the so perfectly chosen gifts (plus a cupboard full of coffee beans LOL). In summary, a perfect exchange, a perfect family and I really hope we get to meet next summer in Whistler - can't wait! Thank you for everything, for the friendship we have formed and for looking after Night so amazingly well. We are thrilled that we could be part of your Italian adventure. Lots of love, Vanessa, Gianluca & Noah xxxx

We had the most perfect exchange with Rachel at her fabulous home in San Francisco. We fell completely in love with both her place and the city! Rachel is the perfect host, kind and funny, we laughed a lot along the way whilst planning this exchange and are very similar in many ways which is just so enjoyable. She took so much time out to help me plan our time in San Fran and we would never have seen so much without her help. Our boys especially loved her place as they all got to have their own rooms and didn't have to share! My eldest 2 have fallen in love with San Fran so much they want to go and live there! Her home is modern, comfortable and oh so spacious! Location is perfect and the neighbourhood safe and friendly. Thank you Rachel for giving us this incredible opportunity, this vacation was without doubt the best we've ever had.

Exchange dream come true! Jeff & Nancy were absolutely wonderful, kind and considerate hosts. Our communication was always seamless and lots of fun! I can honestly say I don't think I've ever seen a more beautiful home, full of love and happiness (and freshly baked banana bread!). We had a ball there, spending our late evenings drinking fabulous Californian wine in the back yard while the kids played ping pong and corn hole. Our warm sunny days were filled with exploring Santa Barbara, shops, beaches, wines and amazing restaurants. We loved Santa Barbara so much that we made a family pact that when (not if!) we win the lottery we are buying a home there! Nancy was really kind and checked in with us every day to see if we needed any help with our days planning and offered some wonderful advice - all of which we followed! In summary, it was a dream, both the home and the exchange. Couldn't have been any better. Jeff & Nancy thank you so much for allowing us the privilege of sharing your home for a while. Our Californian adventure was all the richer for meeting you (albeit virtually for the moment lol). I can't wait to host you at our (much smaller!) home in Sorrento next year. Love to you all from me and the boys xxx ps we also loved the chickens who all now have English and Italian names!

We feel very exceptionally lucky that Fawn & Ferdi opened their beautiful home to us for 10 magical, fun-filled days this August. We loved every single moment. Icing on the cake is the beautiful swimming pool which we made the most of after our long days sightseeing. Super close to Disney and accessible to LA within 1 hour it was the perfect spot for us to begin our California adventure. Communication with Fawn was seamless from the beginning and continued throughout. She kindly helped me with my planning and remained in touch during our stay for which I am very grateful. I've often woken up since being back home and thought for just one second that we were back there......it's that dreamy. If you have the amazing opportunity I did - grab it.

We spent Christmas at Kates beautiful cottage in the Cotswolds. When I imagined the perfect location for our family Christmas together since covid and set out searching, I never thought I would find everything I wished for. Kate & Ant are the most hospitable and gracious hosts you would wish for. Nothing was too much trouble and I am forever grateful that Kate was kind enough to take in my Christmas packages to save me international delivery and extra baggage costs! We loved our stay, their cottage is so cozy and we felt relaxed and at home from the moment we arrived. We adored their cute little cat Olive and not only fell in love with her but also with the Cotswolds. So much to do from Kates place, we went to the village of Broadway (omg so gorgeous) and bought lots of locally made products to eat and drink. We visited the home of William Shakespeare in Stratford upon Avon, explored Cheltenham and had our Christmas celebrations at the Ivy. But mostly we hung around the local pub drinking English larger and eating good pub grub. Fabulous hikes in the area (but remember your wellies in the winter!). Kates kitchen is massive with a lovely double oven and big hob so we had no issues cooking a good old English Christmas lunch for the family. A wholesome, happy family Christmas with all my boys in the absolute perfect location all thanks to our lovely host. We can't thank the 'Bees' enough. Our door is always open for you in Sorrento.

It's easy to get to Palma centre either walking (20 mins max), bus or taxi and there are great places to eat and shop close by. Her home is very well equipped and just spot on for a family of 4. We sat out on her lovely terrace and discussed our days and constructed the following days plans - all with Susana's kind help and assistance.

Our communication with Kim was great and she really helped us out with restaurant recommendations and cool things to do. If you are fortunate enough to be offered an exchange with Kim then JUMP at the chance. We feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to explore Cortona and the province of Arezzo from her adorable home. Thank you and we are looking forward to welcoming Kim to our place in Sorrento soon.
