Super Hospitable

Melissa is an incredible host, and her house really gives off a home away from home. The home itself is spacious, enough for me and my five children and it's like she knows if you forgot something, the house is fully stocked with anything from kitchen appliances, to bathroom toiletries. Our host answered many questions, and gave us many ideas on what to do and eat in the areas, and the home has security leaving you extra security (no cameras). We only had one issue our whole seven days, which was promptly handled by our host. Overall very nice stay. P.s the pool was amazing

About the host

Hosted by Melissa Griffin

Host profile image
We reside in Massachusetts. Bought this house when my husband was working and living away from home during Covid. We didn’t want to sell when he moved back home :)

Why they chose this property

We chose this house because it had a pool. It’s so convent 8 minutes from the airport and 8 minutes from the Zoo and 30-40 minutes from beaches.

What makes this property unique

I love our home because it’s quaint and the neighborhood is slightly older (well kept) so it’s nice and quiet. It’s way access to beaches, shops and all sorts of dining. And I’ve always wanted a pool!
