I am very involved with African communities, so am often hosting meetings in my home or out at an African function, so the house can be very empty or very full. Nice garden setting where you can sit and smoke outside. No smoking in the house, thanks.

Living with Skye in her Adelaide homestay has been an exceptional experience. Skye warmly welcomed me into her home, creating a supportive and inviting environment. Her hospitality and personal care have made my stay truly enjoyable, and I feel fortunate to have been received by such a wonderful host.

Extremely friendly and helpful host!
Amazing first time in Adelaide.
I have stayed with Skye for a week. Honestly speaking, she is very kind, hospitable and supportive, in a word she is a real human being.The living space was very comfortable.
The house is located very close to the bus stop in quiet and nice neighborhood.
I would definitely recommend this place.
