About the host

Hosted by Ben Lapane

Host profile image
Meet Ben, a proud Texan with a passion for travel and creating unforgettable experiences for travelers around the world. When he's not busy exploring new destinations, Ben enjoys spending quality time with his family, especially his daughter.

Ben's love for Texas is infectious, and he's always eager to share his knowledge of the state with visitors. He has been fortunate enough to host travelers from all corners of the globe in his home, providing them with a unique glimpse into the Lone Star State's rich culture and heritage.

As a dedicated host, Ben's mission is to create one-of-a-kind experiences for all of his guests.

We have the upmost respect for the health, safety, and privacy of our guests. Therefore, we plan to remain socially distanced from guests during their stay. I work during the day for my employer and will usually not be present during the day at the property. However, I can easily be reached on VRBO as needed.
