About the host
Hosted by George Bastawros
Hi, I’m George! 👋
I’m from North Carolina and love sharing my home state with travelers. When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time outdoors, exploring Raleigh’s food scene, and traveling whenever I can.
Hosting is special to me because I enjoy creating spaces where people feel comfortable, cared for, and at home — whether you’re here for work, family, or just to recharge. I’ve designed my place with cozy touches, fun amenities, and modern conveniences to make every stay memorable.

Why they chose this property
I picked this neighborhood because it’s the perfect balance of peace and convenience. It’s a safe, family-friendly area with tree-lined streets that feels welcoming and calm, yet it’s only minutes away from shopping, dining, and downtown Raleigh.
What I enjoy most is the sense of community — neighbors look out for each other, and it has that “local” charm you don’t always find in a city. At the same time, you’re close to everything: WakeMed Hospital, North Hills, downtown, and quick access to highways if you’re exploring beyond Raleigh.
It’s the kind of place where you can relax and recharge after a busy day, whether you’ve been sightseeing, working, or visiting family.

What makes this property unique
This home is more than just a place to stay — it’s designed for comfort, connection, and fun. Guests love the basement hangout zone with a mini gym, ping pong table, and a cozy reading nook. For movie lovers, there’s an 85-inch surround sound entertainment system that turns any night into a theater experience.
Outside, you can unwind by the fire pit on the deck under the stars, and if you drive electric, you’ll appreciate the EV charging station right on site. Add in high-speed Wi-Fi and a convenient location just minutes from downtown Raleigh and WakeMed, and it’s the ideal mix of relaxation and accessibility.
What really sets it apart is that it’s a place where families, friends, and business travelers all feel at home — a private retreat with everything you need to make your stay memorable.
