Wow! Photos do not do justice to the beauty of the property or surroundings! From all the gorgeous art to all the books, the piano, the furnishings, the windows that bring the serenity and beauty of the river inside, Georgel's home is a gem. Wish we could have stayed for a week! Thank you for sharing your home with us.

I’ve never had such an amazing Airbnb experience. Georgel was so lovely and his breath work session was lifechanging. The home was a dream and I didn’t want to leave. The attention to detail, the books, the river, the setting, the animals and frogs. This is a place to recharge, relax and care for your soul. Don’t forget to book his session if you are lucky enough to get in! 10 stars ⭐️

The place is located in the heart of the Three Rivers. We loved the location, house, kitchen, and the proximity to the river. We had a chance to do a cold plunge, enjoy the hot jacuzzi, and rest. Thank you for hosting our group. Much appreciate your warmth and kindness.

Truly one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever stayed. We were a big group with toddlers and kids, and everyone felt at home. The outdoor space was truly spectacular
