This apartment was perfect for us. We felt at home immediately and it had everything we needed. It’s in a great location of the city and perfect for going on day excursions. Mike and Frank were available for any questions and left a nice packet of local tourist information. This experience is the kind everyone hopes for…we enjoyed meeting each other and look forward to exchanging again!
Mike and Frank were fabulous guests! And they are perfect "fur baby" parents. Their dogs are as wonderful and friendly as they are. Lucky for us their Portomao Penthouse isn't so far from our place, so we look forward to exchanging with them more in the future!
Mike, Frank, and their two dogs were ideal guests in my home. They left everything in it’s original place and the home was spotless when we returned. We kept in touch during the exchange and communicated when we had questions. I highly recommend them as guests and will welcome them for future exchanges.
Sevilla and Scott's place was fantastic and exactly as described. The communication between us was great and we really felt at home in their home. The apartment was cozy and the location was perfect. We loved our stay there!
Unfortunately, Scott and Sevilla weren't able to travel to our home, but the good part is, we were able to spend some time with them! They are a lovely couple with a lovely home and the communication between us was exceptional. I hope we can do another exchange with them in the future.
Feedback for Nadege·Non-Reciprocal exchange·7 nights
We had a wonderful stay at Nadege’s home in Paris. The place was well-located near shops, restaurants, RER and metro. Nadege gave us some great tips on where to go and what to do. We hope to do another exchange with her!
I am very happy that you had a wonderful stay!
I recommend Mike and Franck as guests and I hope we will see each other again one day at your place in Portugal! In the meantime, good luck!
Feedback for Harmony·Simultaneous exchange·21 nights
We really enjoyed our stay at Harmony's home! It was a perfect location for walks on the beach and close to local bars and restaurants. Loads of space for us and our four legged kids. Had everything we needed to enjoy our 3 week stay!
Harmony is wonderful! We had a chance for several chats before our adventure. This was our first exchange and Harmony made it easy. She took care of our home as if it were hers. We would gladly do another exchange with her!

We would like to travel anywhere in Europe, but especially Portugal, Italy and Spain. Currently, we are looking for long-term (1 - 3 months) stays in 2027.
