Meet Your Hosts: Silvana & Craig

Welcome to our slice of paradise! We are a busy family of four (along with our two children, aged 5 and 12) who love traveling, exploring, and spending quality time together. Our story spans across oceans—Silvana is originally from Santiago, Chile, and Craig is a born-and-bred Kiwi from New Zealand. We met 15 years ago in the coastal town of Algarrobo, Chile, and after years of traveling through Australia, Chile, and various cities, we decided to put down roots right here in beautiful Karāpiro. When we aren't hosting, Silvana runs her own accounting business and Craig manages his concrete landscaping company.We recently built our new home right next to the cottage. Because we live just next door, we are always available if you need anything at all, have questions about the local area, or simply want to catch up for a chat over a warm cup of coffee. We love welcoming travelers from all walks of life and are truly delighted to help you experience a wonderful, relaxing holiday.¡Bienvenidos! We can’t wait to host you.
