Heritage homes and retro houses will never be out of style. If guests want some fresh air, extend the celebration to a beautiful patio or lush outdoor garden. Set up a few chairs, fairy lights for the vibe, and streamers for a more festive feel.
Are the rooftop bars or terraces near you all unavailable on your chosen party date? No need to cancel it when you can rent a downtown penthouse with a view. Walk in, look around, and not only will everyone be impressed by the view, but they'll also fall in love with the fancy furniture and its modern look.
Do you want your next party to have a vibe that nobody expected? Book one of our retro bungalows with personality. With vintage furniture, bold colors, and mid-century charm, it's that kind of place that pretty much decorates itself.
Want to step outside the office and trade your typical meeting venue for a nice change of environment?

Banquet halls, ballrooms, museums, and meeting centers—there are countless venue types you can rent for an event. But if you're set on having an epic home party, there's no shortage of spaces to book on Giggster.
Private Home – The Full Package. Is your own house a bit cramped even for a small group? No worries; we have houses of all styles and sizes at various price points. Many of them feature indoor and outdoor spaces, with spacious living areas, kitchens, backyards, gardens, and maybe, even a swimming pool, so you and your guests can enjoy the best of both worlds and continue the celebration, no matter the weather.
Villa with a Pool – Fun in the Sun. For summer home parties like no other, a villa with a pool in the backyard is the place to be. It feels (and sounds) fancy, but it doesn't have to cost a fortune. If it's too cold for a swim, or some guests didn't bring swimwear, the pool can be a fantastic spot to take beautiful photos with the crew.
Loft Space – Open, Intimate, and Flexible. Want the event to reflect the star of the show, but a typical house already has its own decorations and vibe? Let an urban loft be your own blank canvas that you can set up and decorate however you want. A funky vibe, a glow-in-the-dark bash, a romantic look, gothic, or something else? You can design the loft area to the look and style you prefer.
Historic Mansion with Gorgeous Views – Old-School Glamour. Take your home soiree to the next level by booking an awe-inspiring mansion with a lot of history. If the imposing architecture, mesmerizing ornate details, immaculate rooms inside, and lush greenery outdoors don't impress you, the sweeping views will undoubtedly make everyone fall in love with the place.
Home with a Rooftop Terrace – Social Events Under the Stars. Open sky, laid-back, fantastic views, and a naturally social layout—what's not to like about a rooftop terrace home as a venue for your next gathering? If it gets chilly outdoors or the weather doesn't cooperate, you can stay indoors to continue the celebration.
Amenities aren't just a nice-to-have—they're what separates a smooth, memorable party from a stressful one. Before you book, make sure the space checks your key boxes so you can focus on having fun at the event rather than managing it. Know what questions to ask before you go out there and scout a home party location.
Does the space have enough room for your guest list? Square footage matters more than you'd think. Once you finalize your headcount, match it to a home that gives everyone room to move comfortably, whether that means a spacious living area for mingling or a large dining room for a seated dinner.
What's the ambiance like? The look and feel of the space should align with your party's theme and energy. Check the photos carefully, and pay attention to the lighting, decor style, and outdoor access, as they all contribute to the atmosphere you'll be creating for your guests.
What amenities does the host provide? A fully equipped kitchen, quality sound system, outdoor seating, and reliable Wi-Fi can make a huge difference in how smoothly your event runs. Always review the listing details and ask your host directly if something's unclear.
A little planning goes a long way if you want to pull off a party that feels effortless. Map out the key details ahead of time, so you know what to do from beginning to end, and nothing will catch you off guard.
Set Your Budget First – Every great party starts with knowing your numbers. Decide how much you're comfortable spending across all categories, such as venue rental, food and drinks, decor, and entertainment, and build your plan from there. Book on Giggster to make it easy to compare options and find a home party space that fits your budget without compromise.
Lock In Your Guest List Early– Your headcount shapes nearly every other decision you'll make, from the size of the venue to the amount of food you order. Nail down your list as soon as possible so you can move forward with confidence.
Plan Your Food and Drink Setup – Will you cater, cook, or hire a private chef? Check whether your chosen home has the kitchen facilities to support your plan. A well-stocked bar area or outdoor grill can be a huge advantage depending on your menu.
Coordinate Arrival and Parking Logistics– Make it easy for guests to show up relaxed and ready to celebrate. Share clear directions, confirm parking availability near the property, and communicate any entry details well in advance so nobody's scrambling on the day.
Even with a solid budget in place, surprise expenses have a way of sneaking up on you if you're not watching for them. Accounting for every possible cost upfront means you'll spend the day of your party celebrating, not stressing. Watch out for these three common ones:
Are there any cleaning or damage deposit fees?
Many rental properties require a security deposit or charge a cleaning fee on top of the base rental rate. Review the listing details carefully and factor these into your total budget so the final invoice doesn't catch you off guard.
Will you need any permits or noise approvals?
Depending on the size of your gathering or local regulations, you may need to notify neighbors or obtain a temporary permit for amplified music. Check with your host about any house rules and look into local requirements before the event.
Have you budgeted for decor and extras?
If you're personalizing the space with decorations, it adds up quickly. Balloons, table centerpieces, lighting, party favors, and rental items like extra chairs or linens should all have their own line in your budget before you start shopping.
With the right private rental, great company, and a little planning, your home party will be one for the books. Find your perfect space today on the Giggster app.
