✨Hi friends, I'm Sandra! ✨

I am delighted that you're considering a stay with me. As an Islander, mother, grandmother, and retired banker, I've found my passion in hosting guests. Holding a spot in the top 1% of Airbnb and Vrbo hosts in Prince Edward Island, I take pride in extending a warm embrace to guests of all cultures and identities. Hosting aligns perfectly with my outgoing nature. In my down time I enjoy PEIs sandy shores or tranquil woods, or Historical Charlottetown adventures.

✦ I was born here in the capital city of Charlottetown, one of my favorite things about meeting new people is seeing our home through their eyes. A fresh perspective on how truly lucky I am to call this place home! I love learning how other people explore and enjoy this gem of a Island. We have met some incredible people through our vacation rentals since 2014. We are excited for all the people we have yet to meet!

✦ Come stay with us, we'd love to welcome you here!

We offer delicious cuisine, lively music, endless beaches, award-winning golf courses and outdoor adventures. While those are all special, it's how Islanders bring them all together in our kitchens, on our beaches, or anywhere we can gather that makes this such a great place to live - and visit.
