Learn English – a generic word for a person being visited

single-word-requests

I am looking for a generic word for a person who is being visited. The opposite of visitor according to thesaurus.com is host. That's not what I'm looking for. A couple examples: an employee being visited by a guest; a student being visited by their parent at school. I can't think of anything except "visitee" and I couldn't find it officially used anywhere.
