Meet your hosts
She's Yvonne. He's Nik. The cutie's Zissou.
What do you get when you bring together a marketing professional with deep experience in travel and hospitality, and a five-star massage therapist? A vacation experience thoughtfully designed to make you feel cared for.
Before meeting Nik, Yvonne passionately solo-traveled through 50-something countries, staying in homes, hostels, luxury hotels...you name it. Meanwhile, when Nik wasn't in Avalon, he was catching waves in some of the world's most far-flung destinations. Since we met (on Instagram!) we've criss-crossed America on long road trips, Zissou in tow, greedily eating our way through glittering cities and sleepy small towns. We obviously love to travel, and we started Bougie Beach Bums to share our love of travel and making friends of strangers with you.
The house we offer you is our first home together, our marital home. Over the years, we worked on it, project by project, and created what you see today. This is not a flip or investment house. It's always been filled with love and happiness for us. We hope you catch that vibe during your stay. We lived year-round in this house for 5+ years, so we have all the knowledge you need to feel like a local, no matter what the season. Don't be afraid to ask!
