Fantastic host and home!

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Our group had a fantastic time. The property is awesome and in a great location. Mya was the perfect host - accommodating, friendly, responsive, and just an awesome person. Was visiting Calgary for work, but Mya and this property have me already thinking about planning a personal trip to stay here again!

A fantastic place to stay in Calgary

Let me start by saying that I have stayed in numerous VBRO and AirB&B accommodations around the world. Our stay at Mya's property in Calgary was head and shoulders the best experience I have had. My family and I were arriving from multiple locations globally for a family reunion and Mya was very accommodating to our ever-changing schedule. This property is in the best neighborhood in Calgary and walking distance to numerous bars and restaurants as well as endless bike and walking trails. Mya thank you very much for everything you did for us from the goodies on arrival to the extra supplies when we were running low. I highly recommend this property to anyone coming to Calgary!

Spectacular!

All previous reviews are bang on regarding the property, location, and the host. The house not only met my expectations for our small family gathering, but exceeded them. The house was accessible for my 95 year old mother with mobility issues. Mya was an extraordinary host. She not only had wine, eggs, bread etc in fridge, she provideded a beautiful vase of fresh flowers for my mother and a smash cake for my 4 year old grand child. The house offered a number of different place for people to gather either all together or in more intimate smaller groups. The bedrooms were all generous sizes and there was plenty of linens. Special touches everywhere - like the shampoo/soap boxes - high end toiletries in each bathroom. Beautiful backyard with a fireplace. Double car garage to keep your cars in. So many touches. We will be back for sure!

Best vacation stay

While I've had the opportunity to stay in several lovely Vrbo properties around the world, this experience at Mya's beautiful home far exceeded all others. The house is gorgeous, spacious and welcoming. My children so enjoyed being withing walking distance to the Elbow River where they enjoyed Stanley Park and playing in the shallow water. It was a short drive to the Calgary Stampede and many other attractions. Our host, Mya was lovely. She welcomed us with wine, fresh milk, eggs, breadm and a generous charcuterie board. She even had darling little treats for my children. Her attention to detail, kindness, super communication and willingness to go out of her way to make us feel welcome was exceptional. The house was spotless, with plenty of high end amenities, like a steamshower, heated floors, and beautiful bathrooms with luxury soaps, Evian water, and other thoughful details that made us want to stay home and relax! We will certainly return to stay at this gorgeous home in the future! I cannot recommend this propoerty enough.
