Summary: We are a family (mom, dad, and son) living in a 3 bedrooms apartment. Our neighbourhood is green & tranquil. 10 minutes walk to the metro station, and ride to the city centre takes about 30 minutes.

Space: Though it's not right at the centre of the city, you get to see the rather quiet & natural side of Hong Kong. The apartment is considered quite spacious in this Cosmopolitan city. It's almost like a resort when you walk into the apartment complex.

    Comments: The host canceled this reservation the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.

  • Reviewer: Clara

    Comments: The residence is as spectacular as it looks in the photos. There's a huge swimming pool downstairs and a mountain (& hiking trail) right behind the building. The apartment itself is spacious and super clean, with a proper kitchen, washer, dining & living spaces (something of a rarity in HK). There are sharing bikes everywhere in the neighbourhood - I enjoyed cycling around the neighbourhood. It's also very convenient to get to places like Sai Kung and Ma On Shan from here. Highly recommended for nature/outdoor lovers. Note that it takes about 30-45min (an easy MTR commute) to get to Kowloon or Hong Kong island, but it wasn't an issue for me. Winston gave me tons of indie film/music/art event suggestions, and his mum and dad are really warm hosts - I felt like part of the family. I'm lucky to have been exposed to a very different side of Hong Kong that I probably wouldn't have seen otherwise!

    Comments: No complaints. Was a great place to stay for the Hong Kong area. Hosts were very friendly.

  • Reviewer: Natalya

    Comments: It was my pleasure to stay at Winston's place. Room is cozy and is close to the public transportation. Family is very friendly and made me feel like at home. I would definitely stay there again if I get to go back to HK.

    Comments: It was my great time in HG. Winston's family very hospitable, they invited me to family dinner with typical Chinese food in my first day. Winston was repliying for all my questions very quickly (in (Hidden by Airbnb) ) when I was walking in city and needed help.

    Comments: 房屋很干净,房主很好

  • Reviewer: Piotr Marek

    Comments: I have spent there three months. It is a very clean place, cleaned thoroughly once per week. Washing machine, water filter, kitchen and everything else what is needed is available to the guests. The family is very welcoming, several times they have invited me to try various Chinese dishes and have always greeted me with smiles when I came back to the flat in the evening. The place is at an extremely comfortable and well equipped area. Swimming pool/library/gym and many others such as billiard table are available to the guests after a small fee. The place is 10min from metro station by walk, and the minibus station is just in front of the building. If you do not mind staying with the family, I would highly recommend this place.

  • Reviewer: Yang

    Comments: The place is great, Winston was not around when I was there but his family was very welcoming and accommodating. His parents are really good hosts and I got to find out a lot more about Hong Kong when I joined them for dinner from time to time. The apartment is 10 minutes away from the MTR station and 30-40 minutes to central from there. Would definitely recommend staying here.

  • Reviewer: Felipe

    Comments: Good place to stay if u don’t want to be in the center of Hong Kong. Really quiet and peaceful!

  • Reviewer: Jun Yang

    Comments: Highly recommend this place! Hosts are extremely warm and location is good if you're a student at HKUST. Place is clean and you get a wonderful homely experience! Thanks Winston and family :)

  • Reviewer: Nicholas

    Comments: Winston and his parents were very helpful and accommodating and the room was perfect for me. I had a bathroom to myself, and everything was clean and tidy. Tseung Kwan O is a fair way out from central, but if you are looking for a bit more peace and quiet (as I was) then it’s a perfect place. Just be mindful that LOHAS Park (where the Airbnb is located) doesn’t have too many amenities in terms of food, so I would recommending going one MTR stop over to Tseung Kwan O station for food and shopping. Otherwise, a great place to stay with lovely people.
