Homestay Accommodation

Living with a family is a unique way to experience American traditions and culture first hand. It's also a great opportunity to become fully immersed in the English language and practice your English language skills with real Americans everyday.

When you select our homestay option, you are placed with a trusted family in San Diego who we have carefully screened and interviewed. We have both single and double occupancy options, and most homestay families provide 14 meals per week (breakfast and dinner).

Please note: The Intrax Housing Coordinator requires at least 4 weeks notice prior to your intended arrival date to book your homestay. The Housing Coordinator is also available to answer any questions you may have about living with an American family.

Intrax Homestay fee: $35 per night
