Stay with people, not just places.
StayingBee is a community-driven accommodation platform where members of trusted communities stay with each other while traveling — safely, affordably, and meaningfully.
Stay in a stranger's overpriced Airbnb
Stay with someone from your community.
Whether you're part of a student network, startup ecosystem, alumni group, professional association, or global community, StayingBee helps you travel like a local, save money, and build real connections with people who already share your values.
What is StayingBee?
Why Communities Choose StayingBee

What Our Community Says
Real stories from real community members.
"In just a few days in Vienna, I went from a visitor to feeling like a local. We shopped, cooked, hit the gym, and bonded over wine. I felt at home in Vienna, thanks to Stayingbee."
Kelvin Chikezie
Guest - Vienna
"I very much enjoyed being a host and to show my guest a little bit of my neighbourhood and join together one of my favourite events. It's easy to find topics to talk about like traveling and obviously sharing some AIESEC memories, and to remind each other of some of the learned lessons during that time."
Robert
Host - Berlin
"the guest was amazing; a lot of openness from his side, a lot of things to share and learn about each other. a friendship tied in a matter of hours"
George
Host - Bucharest
"Hosting through StayingBee has been an absolute delight. From my very first booking, I was matched with a guest from a shared community —a fellow AIESEC alumni! The platform's intuitive matching process meant every stay felt more like catching up with old friends than simply hosting strangers."
Jibola
Host - Brussels
"Hosting on StayingBee was such a lovely experience! I didn't just have a guest at my house—I had a friend in my home. We reconnected over home-cooked meals, explored the beautiful city of Vienna, and shared moments that made the visit truly memorable. It's amazing how StayingBee could bring such opportunity to connect us after all these years."
Wafa
Host - Vienna
"It was nice to have Kelvin as a first guest as the owner of the platform. The whole process was pretty smooth and easy for both of us. Getting to know the platform for the first time and also getting to know Kelvin was nice! Can't wait until June to experience StayingBee as a guest in Paris! 😊"
Berke
Host - Budapest
"Giving back hosting an AIESECer, going to different events together and exploring new spots in my city! The gesture of the guest of bringing his fav chocolate is just the cherry on top!"
Joaquin
Host - Madrid
"When I arrived in Vienna on a weekday, Wafa arranged for me to pick up the keys from her office. She is a natural-born host, one of the most hospitable people I know and cooks amazing food. Her spacious flat is absolutely pristine. I will miss the enjoyable dinnertime with my good friend!"
Victoria
Guest - Vienna
"Guest was awesome, super nice and polite, we had great conversations during the week. She's lovely"
Julia
Host - Barcelona
"We exchanged alot of ideas and had lunch together."
Jude
Host - Budapest
"My experience was very positive. Two main factors - the host was very interesting & hospitable too. I felt at home very quickly and was very accomodating overall. Also the price point was really good too - helping me to extend my stay further."
Georgi Tonchev
Guest - Berlin
"Everything was so easy, it felt like we already knew the host, even though we just met. The host was super helpful and it was nice to talk about our AIESEC experiences, although unfortunately we didn't have much time to get to know each other. Basically felt like we were being hosted by a friend."
Jenni
Guest - Stockholm
"Overall it was a great experience me and my friend stayed alone in the whole flat. It was like an AirBnB experience. Overall pretty smooth."
Berke
Guest - Paris
