August Collection Reviews | August Homeowners

Read

When you stay in these homes, you feel like you're part of the community rather than just a visitor or a stranger. You can go to the local grocery store, pick up the things you like, wake up in the morning, make your own breakfast, and enjoy the beautiful countryside around you. It feels much more like living in the destination rather than simply visiting it.

What really appealed to me about the August model was the concept of having access to five homes in different destinations, without the burden of full ownership and maintenance.

Last year, some friends of ours, had rented an Airbnb house in Palma for a lot of money. We offered to let them use our August Mallorca home for a week after their rental and they came back absolutely thrilled. They said that our house was breathtaking and, unlike their Airbnb, it genuinely felt like a home...even though it’s not a personal home, it felt warm, lived-in, and perfectly prepared, which they said you just can’t get in a typical vacation rental.

The beauty for us is that it just feels like a second home. You don’t feel like someone else has been there, you arrive and it’s in perfect condition, so from day one you can relax.

It really does give us the best of both worlds, the convenience of city stays and the escape of the more spacious villa homes.

I loved the thought of our boys growing up with these homes, becoming familiar with them, feeling independent there, and eventually even being able to bring their own families in the future. It felt like creating a thread of continuity through their childhood.

It was an easy decision to upgrade to the Premium Collection - we joined August so we could take those much-needed breaks every 4-6 weeks, effectively 'forcing' us to go away in between work! It's a great excuse, and we cannot wait to start enjoying life even more with impressive Premium homes!

It made sense that if we went ahead with a collection, it would have to fit the way we travel. The City Collection of homes are perfect, conveniently located closer to the cafes, shops and culture we love to discover! The smaller size fits the two of us or a small group but it's fantastic to have larger collections to consider in the future.
