About us

Comfortable places to stay, run by people who care

Be Nice Properties is exactly what it sounds like. We own and manage every home ourselves, from whole-home getaways to by-the-room co-living, and we run them the way we'd want a place we stayed in to be run: clean, honest, and genuinely welcoming.

Our story

We started Be Nice Properties because renting somewhere to stay had gotten impersonal. Faceless listings, surprise fees, and a call center instead of a person.

We wanted the opposite: homes we're proud of, prices you can see up front, and a real host you can reach. Whether you're booking a weekend away or renting a room for a season, you're dealing directly with the people who actually run the place.

We're growing from Atlanta across the Southeast United States and to Antigua, one well-run home at a time.

The people behind it

We own or manage every home on this site. When you send a message, it reaches one of us, not a call center.

Alex Henry

Co-founder

I handle the systems side: the bookings, the pricing, the software that keeps our homes running. If you message us about a room, there is a good chance I am the one who answers.

Della Henry

Co-founder

I look after the homes themselves and the people in them. Making sure a house is genuinely ready before someone moves in, and that it stays that way while they are here.

Guests, in their words

“Booking direct was so much easier than the apps. The room matched the photos exactly, and everything really was included. Not one surprise bill the whole time.”
Ava M.Old Bill Cook · Atlanta
“I travel for work and needed a furnished room for a few months. I moved in the same day I asked, and being able to text a real person when I had a question made all the difference.”
Marcus T.Old Bill Cook · Atlanta
“The house is clean, the Wi-Fi is genuinely fast, and my housemates turned out to be great. It feels like a home, not a rental.”
Priya R.Hutchens · Atlanta
“Weekly cleaning kept the common areas spotless the entire time I lived there. Honestly worth it just for that peace of mind.”
Devon K.Hutchens · Atlanta
“We had the whole place to ourselves for a week. Gorgeous, private, and the host checked in without ever being intrusive. We'll definitely be back.”
Carla & JamesWhole-home getaway · St. John's
“Perfect weekend spot for our family. Check-in was easy, the place was spotless, and the price beat what we'd have paid on the big platforms.”
Nate S.Whole-home getaway · Atlanta
“I was nervous about co-living, but this changed my mind. Everyone here respects the shared space, and I've made a couple of real friends out of it.”
Tasha B.Old Bill Cook · Atlanta
“I moved to Atlanta for a new job and didn't know a soul. Having a furnished room ready to go took a huge weight off. All I had to bring was a suitcase.”
Jordan P.Hutchens · Atlanta
“What sold me was the price being exactly what they said up front. No deposit games, no cleaning fee tacked on at the end. Just a fair weekly rate.”
Elise W.Old Bill Cook · Atlanta
“My last place had a management company that never picked up. Here I texted about a leaky faucet on a Sunday and someone came Monday morning. Big difference.”
Andre F.Hutchens · Atlanta
