Company information

As your host, I take great pride in offering more than just a place to stay—I open my home with the intention of creating a warm, welcoming space where guests can feel truly at ease. Whether you’re visiting for business, medical needs, university events, or simply to experience the vibrant culture of South Florida, I’m committed to making sure your stay is smooth, memorable, and enjoyable. I’ve lived in Miami for over 15 years and am a proud University of Miami alumnus. This city isn’t just where I live—it’s where I’ve studied, worked, explored, and built community. Hosting allows me to share the local knowledge and hidden gems I’ve discovered over the years, from the best beach spots to tucked-away eateries and cultural landmarks most visitors miss. I love helping guests experience the “real” Miami, beyond the tourist trail—whether that means catching a baseball game at UM, strolling South Miami’s leafy parks, or enjoying a local café just around the corner. I’ve hosted people from all over the world—travelers, students, parents visiting the university, doctors and nurses rotating through local hospitals, and digital nomads seeking a tranquil home base. No matter your reason for visiting, I aim to create a peaceful, clean, and friendly environment where you feel comfortable and cared for. As a guest, you’ll always be treated with the respect and attention to detail I would offer a friend. I’m happy to provide recommendations, help with directions, or give you space when you need it. Whether you’re here for a few nights or an extended stay, I’m always just a message away. I believe travel is about connection—both to places and people—and I’d be honored to be a small part of your Miami journey. Come stay, relax, and enjoy the city through the eyes of a local. I look forward to welcoming you!
