You can select roommates from:

  • Villager's on the northern beach with established vacation homes.
  • Villager's on the southern beach looking for a vacation home.
  • By using the Amiibo machine.

If you merge two existing vacation homeowners, then they will move into the home of the villager you asked about having a roommate first and their vacation home plot will free up.

Are There any Roommate Restrictions?

There are no restrictions when placing two roommates together regardless of conflicting personality types. You will be able to use all your currently unlocked tools when renovating the home and will also be given a chance to choose how many floors the home has when discussing the move-in with the villager pair.

If not already unlocked, then you will also gain access to the villager you choose to be a roommate's items in the catalog. If you don't like the roommates you paired or simply want a change, then you can always change the living situation by talking with the villager at the northern beach again and selecting " how's your home" and then "want to build your own.".

I start my day by exploring Teyvat in Genshin Impact and end it after reorganizing my apartment in Final Fantasy XIV. I am a diehard fan of N64 era games and will forever feel betrayed that Megaman Legends didn't finish. Outside of gaming, I have spend my time collecting manga, collecting anime figures, and watching anime with my naked cat.
