THE SPACE
Stay Awhile is comfort with a twist. Curated to offer all the niceties of home and sprinkled with the unexpected. From the 12” memory foam mattresses, to the super fluffy bath towels, to the Keurig coffee maker- we have you covered in comfort. But what we are equally proud of is the design and fun atmosphere we have integrated into the home. From the artsy light fixtures and custom artwork, to the giant word search puzzle and creatively integrated scavenger hunt built into the house. A lot of thought and love was put into the planning and design of Stay Awhile. We truly hope you enjoy our efforts.
