What is HomeExchange?

HomeExchange is the world's largest home exchange community, which offers travelers a warmer, more authentic, and budget-friendly alternative to traditional paid accommodations.

The model is simple: exchange homes with another family from our community (simultaneously, or not), or host other members for GuestPoints. You can then use those GuestPoints to travel as a guest and stay in another member's home around the world. Signing up is free and we will grant you 1225 GuestPoints to get you started while completing your profile.

How do you join? 

Sign up, complete your profile and start messaging other members for FREE. You only take the annual membership once you have finalized your first vacation! 
No matter how far you travel, how often you exchange, or the number of people in your group, HomeExchange’s annual membership costs only $220/year and provides all the following benefits: 

• Unlimited exchanges with no extra per-night or per-exchange fees for 12 months
• Coverage up to $1,000,000 in case of unexpected events
• 24/7 Members support
• If you don't arrange an exchange in your first year, your second year is free
• Access to our private Facebook group of members

What our members say about HomeExchange!

"Home exchanging has revolutionized our vacation experience. Not only has it allowed us to take longer, more inexpensive vacations, but the quality of our vacation is so far superior. Staying in someone's home and immersing yourself in their lifestyle/town/country cannot be compared to staying in an impersonal hotel or VRBO." Kelly -  New York

"We love to let our guests experience Barcelona from a local's point of view. Anyone can visit Barcelona for 3 days and stay in the city center, but how many people can experience the real Barcelona? We offer them (we believe) helpful advice to love our city as much as we do. " Anna and Alex - Barcelona
