From Closet Bed to Hidden Retreat: Why We Swapped Sleep for Rest


We’ll admit it: it’s a little weird.
We had a bed in the closet.

Not because we were out of ideas—just trying to make every square foot count.

It fit. It had an AC vent. It was quiet, dark, and honestly? Some kids sleep better in full darkness anyway.

In group travel, numbers matter—how many people you can sleep often determines whether a place gets booked or passed over.

When we first set up our Airbnb, we thought the same.
So we added a fold-out bed.

It served its purpose: it bumped up our guest count. It filled a space. It checked a box.

But it didn’t add value—not really.

Eventually, we looked at that fold-out bed and thought:

What if we gave guests something they didn’t expect?
What if, instead of just another place to sleep, we created a place to rest?

So we got rid of the bed.
And in its place, we added something better:

💆‍♀️ A full-body massage chair—your own little escape tucked behind a door.

Now, instead of squeezing in one more bed, we’ve created a space that says:

“Hey, take a minute. You deserve it.”


Inside the master closet, behind a simple door, is a private nook for total reset—away from the noise, away from the crowd, just for you.

A moment of peace.
A break from chaos.
A massage without leaving the house.

Because travel should be about more than how many heads fit on pillows or how tightly you can pack a room. It should include space to rest, reset, and recharge.


We’re always finding ways to make this home better.
For us, it’s not just hosting—it’s an act of service and hospitality.

💆 What Makes the Chair So Special?

This isn’t just any massage chair. The Cozzia CZ-628 is designed to melt away tension from head to toe:

  • 3D Rollers that adjust to your body and go deep where it counts

  • Zero Gravity Recline to take pressure off your spine

  • 64 Airbags for a full-body squeeze and release — shoulders, arms, legs, and feet

  • Foot Rollers for tired feet after travel days

  • Bluetooth Speakers to set the vibe

  • Mood Lighting for a calming glow

It’s your own little retreat—just behind a door.

Whether you’re traveling with kids, friends, or extended family, this home is made for both connection and calm—and comfort for every guest. With an open floor plan and no stairs anywhere, it's easy to move, gather, and relax together.
