Maya Jama: Everything London wants to know
The Weekender

Maya Jama isn’t just successful in the world of presenting, she also has a lucrative sideline in the holiday letting market.

The purchase is the latest in her property portfolio, as she also owns a home in Hampstead, London, and a £4 million mansion in Cheshire with her footballer ex, Ruben Dias.

Jama is said to be making some serious revenue through the luxury cottage in the celebrity hotspot by renting it out on Airnbnb and Booking.com, The Sun reported.

The TV personality has been charging high prices during the peak summer months, with a stay between September 3 and 5 reportedly costing £980, £490 a night.

This is more expensive than several five-star hotels in London, including the W Hotel, the Sheraton and the Intercontinental Hotel, the outlet revealed.

Jama’s country enclave is proving popular with guests, ranking 4.97 out of 5 on Airbnb and 9.8 out of 10 on Booking.com.

One holidaymaker wrote: “Had a great time away here. Easy to walk into village and plenty of room in the cottage to chill out as a family.”

Another added: “The local produce basket was a lovely added touch!”

Jama also has a home in London, having bought a house in the affluent celebrity enclave of Hampstead in 2023.

She shared her excitement about the pad with The Standard in 2024, saying: “Bristol will always have my heart as I was raised there, but since I was 16 it’s been London.

“I just bought a new house and it’s in the decorating stages now so I’m looking forward to being settled there.”

As for her first flat, she revealed it was in, “Good old Ladbroke Grove,” adding: “My flat was literally right on the doorstep of the Notting Hill Carnival route, so it was such a great location and always a vibe.

Last year, she admitted she doesn’t feel “posh enough” to live in Hampstead - a prestigious area that counts Harry Styles, Ricky Gervais, Dua Lipa, and Ryan Gosling as residents.

Sharing a selfie in the lift on Instagram, she wrote: “Don’t feel posh enough to live in Hampstead – but I get my coffee from Gail’s now so that’s a start.”

In January, Jama and her then-boyfriend Dias were left “devastated” when burglars ransacked their £4million home in Alderley Edge.

Manchester City defender Dias, 28, was playing away against Galatasaray and Jama had been in South Africa filming Love Island: All Stars.

Thieves stole designer jewellery, electronics, handbags and clothes worth thousands belonging to the couple, The Sun reported at the time.

Dias dialled 999 after getting home from the Champions League win to find their dream home upturned by a so-called away day gang in Alderley Edge.

The couple moved into the four-bedroom property - previously an Omaze prize draw home - before Christmas. They are believed to have split in May.
