NamaStay ~Spectacular Views in Scenic, Convenient Location
NamaStay invites you to step inside, unwind and take in the panoramic views of this roomy and comfortable home away from home. Surrounded by stunning Kachemak Bay and its glacier-studded mountains, NamaStay is located in arguably one of the most scenic areas of Homer, yet we are a convenient 6 miles from downtown. Within minutes you can access Homer's art galleries, shopping centers, and fine restaurants-- or head to the famous Homer Spit for myriad fishing and recreational opportunities.
This 1400 sq. foot chalet-style Alaskan home is sunny, stylish and spacious. Situated on just over an acre of land, NamaStay is ideal for friends, couples and families, and can accommodate 2 to 6 people.
The ample living room boasts vaulted ceilings and a wall of south-facing windows to capture the light and warmth of our long summer days. A dining area is nestled into the living room, providing an intimate space to celebrate food with family and friends. Our deck is fully equipped with a propane BBQ grill, picnic table and lounge chairs, and is the perfect place to enjoy your fresh catch, some Homer-grown veggies or a locally brewed beer.
The well-appointed kitchen has everything you need and more to prepare gourmet meals during your stay. A small table and custom crafted breakfast bar provide spaces to indulge and take in spectacular views.
The master bedroom includes a queen size bed, walk in closet, 8 drawer dresser and full bathroom. The en suite bathroom features a handcrafted stained glass countertop with stainless steel sink. Light-canceling shades offer a reprieve from the midnight sun and alluring views when you're ready to daydream about what adventures await you.
The second bedroom hosts 2 new twin beds, situated opposite each other in a cozy loft bedroom, with plenty of closet space and a luggage rack. Distinctive angles and newly installed birch flooring transform this modest space into an inviting enclave. An additional sleeping space containing a fold-down sofa bed is available on the first floor in a recessed area off the living room. There's a small closet in this area for storing luggage and hanging clothing items, as well as a 3/4 bath just steps away. The downstairs bathroom's unique tile and beach rock floors, sink top and backsplash are noteworthy design features.
An expansive yard hosts guests such as resident moose, eagles, hawks and pheasant; sandhill cranes and other migratory birds also frequent the wide open fields this region is known for. A lovely 2 mile walking trail is accessed in either direction from NamaStay, an easy and relaxing way to explore the neighborhood and all the while be dazzled by breathtaking views.
NamaStay provides all the comforts of home, with an intimate setting in a superb and convenient location. Make NamaStay your home base for your next Alaskan adventure and create unforgettable memories that will leave you beckoning for more.

The house was wonderful! Super cozy. We had plenty of room to spread out as a family with 5 with 3 young adult children. The views from all the windows are awe-inspiring. We saw donkeys and multiple birds from the balcony. Highly recommend!
Great place, felt spacious and well laid out. Kitchen well supplied. Super deck with a terrific view - we loved staying here.

Spectacular views from the living area, bedroom, and back porch. The house is a bit older bit functioned very well for our 2 night stay. Our group of two couples were comfortable and had plenty of room to stretch out. A great place to stay when visiting Homer.
Perfect location - convenient to town, but away from all the action. The house was as described and communication was excellent. I loved the space we had and all the available sleeping arrangements. The views across the bay were beautiful.

This was a great house for us! It’s just outside of town enough that it’s quiet but close enough to buzz in to town for whatever your agenda is for the day. Very nicely decorated, comfortable beds and towels, fantastic views!
We enjoyed our short stay! It was perfect for our needs and the views from the deck were beautiful! I made sure to sit on the deck and drink my coffee in the morning! We would stay again if we are in the area!
Namastay is the perfect name for this relaxing place. We stayed for 7 days and took in the beautiful view, tea on the deck, relaxing couches, cozy comfort all around. The quirkiness of the ceilings on the 2nd floor made it fun to navigate - not just a square box. The yard and plants (indoors and out) had a comforting feel. Not a lot of outside noise. We felt at peace and would return again.

The spacious property had a terrific view and was located near activities/tours my family wanted to take. For an added touch, it would be well received to have bath soap and shampoo available to guests.

Clean and spacious. The view was worth millions. Beautiful, peaceful and comfortable. We absolutely loved it.
Everything was great. Easy to get around Homer. Communication was great. Going to Katmai was the highlight of our trip. We was able to go to Denali,Seward, Homer and Anchorage
Beautiful view and nice and cozy. The stairs going up to the bedrooms can be hard and the second bathroom is downstairs. The main bedroom has a bathroom that is attached. The host was wonderful and very helpful. Overall the stay was wonderful!
Only a short drive to downtown Homer, this home has amazing views to the glacier and mountains across the bay. Even though it rained A LOT throughout our stay, the windows ensured we had plenty of light and felt connected to the outdoors, while the window coverings in the bedrooms ensured a good night’s sleep. The home was VERY clean and had everything we needed. We appreciated the nature guides and local info on the bookshelf, and the sandhill cranes in the yard were a treat!
Family of 5 adults. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Property manager was great to work with. Only had one, very minor, issue that was immediately taken care of. This was a return trip for my husband and myself. We brought other family along so they could experience what we had the previous summer. Everyone was very happy. Loved the home and the view. Hope to stay again.

House was clean and spacious for our family of 4. The view of the mountains and water were top notch and made it beautiful. Hard to tell from the photos but there are other houses pretty close by and sitting out on the deck I could hear very clearly other people having phone conversations so it was not as quiet as we had hoped. The key box to gain entry was jammed and difficult upon arrival and there were some plumbing issues on the first day that were a nuisance but overall the stay was lovely for the three nights we stayed.

About the host
Hosted by Jaime Gable
20 years ago, I ventured to Homer, Alaska on a quest to explore the Last Frontier. I was young, eager and fresh out of college searching for a place to call home and plant my feet for awhile. Being a sun-loving surfer chick, I never in my wildest dreams imagined that a place like Alaska could capture my attention for long, or steal my heart. It did. To my amazement, it wasn't just the breathtaking scenery and jaw-dropping views that Homer offered that kept me yearning for more - it was the combination of the remarkable natural beauty with its outstanding community. Having grown up in the suburbs of Pennsylvania, I had never experienced true community the way that I did upon arriving at the end of the road. Since that time, I have adapted my lifestyle in order to maintain a home-base here. As a result of this alternative lifestyle, I have been able to live out many dreams - one of which has been my passion for traveling. The long, dark winter months beckon me to throw some meager belongings into a backpack and hit the jet stream. My travels include destinations such as Africa, India, Colombia, Indonesia, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama and Mexico. And my list is still long. It is my own passion for traveling combined with my love for Homer, Alaska that made me decide to open up my home to other travelers. Besides my love for exploring foreign lands, I also love to garden, hike, cook, and spend time with my beloved dog, Rufus.
Why they chose this property
NamaStay is located in a spectacularly scenic area of Homer just 6 miles from downtown and the Homer Spit. The proximity to town puts you within 10 minutes of Homer's art galleries and great restaurants, as well as heading out on a fishing charter or kayak trip for the day. The residential neighborhood provides great opportunities for wildlife viewing while relaxing on the deck grilling up your fresh catch of the day. There's also great walking/hiking just out your doorstep.
