Hi! We are a child-friendly home in Tampa, Florida! Our home is suitable for families with kids of all ages.

We can accommodate as many as 6 adults and 4 small children (we have 2 cribs and 2 pack n plays) and can arrange for more twin mattresses if needed. The home is 5 bedrooms.

We would prefer a Guest Point exchange of at least 10-14 days Summer of 2026, but dates and length are flexible.

We have a pool with child safety gate for peace of mind with little ones, a playground in our backyard, toddler slide, baby toys, high chair/booster seat, stroller, and a large playground for all ages in our neighborhood which is part of a gated community.

  • Family exchange? Exchange proposal from Moncada, Valencia. Preferred destinations: Ireland, Scotland, Montreal, Boston. Open to other nice destinations as well, just get in touch if you are interested in our home. :slightly_smiling_face:

  • We are 4 and can host 5 or 6 people.

  • July-August (3 weeks).

  • My name is Carme and I’m writing to you from Moncada, near Valencia. I live here with my family: partner and 2 kids (5 and 9 years old). We are respectful and tidy group of travelers who would like to start the HomeExchange experience.

    Our own home is a modern, bright, and very practical house just 15 minutes from Valencia (by car) and 20 minutes (underground or bus).

    Perfectly positioned for both sun and scenery: you are just 15 minutes from the nearest beach and a short drive from mountain trails and charming rural villages.

  • It’s perfect for families, with a large inner courtyard, a library, a playroom, and a lovely garden terrace.

  • Our home: 3082810

  • Would you be open to a reciprocal exchange during Summer 2026? We’d love to chat more and see if we can make this work.

    Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello everyone :waving_hand:

I’m Leen and I’m new here. Together with my travel partner Johan, we’ve listed our home, Jolene, online. Our house, with a heated pool, is located in Belgium, in the north of Limburg, near the Dutch border. It’s very family-friendly, has a fully fenced garden, and is situated on a cul-de-sac next to a playground.

We can accommodate a maximum of 8 people (6 fixed beds + 2 inflatable air mattresses). The house is available from April until the end of the year, including the Easter holidays.

A brief introduction about us: I’m still a bit nervous about home swapping, but it’s incredibly fun, and we hope to make our dream of a tour of Australia come true step by step through HomeExchange.

You can find the full listing here:

We look forward to sharing experiences and getting inspired!

Best,

Leen
