What is Homestay?

Homestay is a safe and convenient accommodation offered by a local host for which a set weekly fee is charged. This fee covers all expenses associated with providing food and shelter to an international student or traveler. This includes providing:

  • A single room for the student’s or the traveler’s use
  • Facilities – a bed, wardrobe, towels, and linen
  • Utilities – gas, electricity, heating, and water costs
  • Cleaning services of common living areas
  • Use of living areas within a residence; including study facilities.

Homestays can be booked either:

  • With Meals, in which case you will be provided with Breakfast and Dinner on Monday to Friday, Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner on Saturday and Sunday, or
  • Without Meals, in which case you will be able to use the host’s kitchen to prepare your own meals.
