For larger groups, you may want to consider also booking one of our other airbnbs SkyView on West Lake or SkyLoft on West Lake - which are all on the same property. All three can be booked as SkyManor on West Lake, if all are available. Perfect if you need bigger accommodations or if you are planning a family reunion or a special get together with friends.
Saskia and Maarten are long-time airbnb superhosts and we understand that guests want their privacy. We have carefully separated the spaces and common areas so that there is a real sense of individual private spaces. Although we live on the property, we highly respect your privacy and communicate normally only through the airbnb app unless we pass each other at some point - and then we will say hi! :-)
