Momo apartment
Had a great stay! Apartment, host, surroundings... everything was great! Thank you for the wonderful time in Hamburg

House by the pond
Dear James, Thank you so much for the great accommodation! Our guests immediately fell in love with the beautiful balcony and the view 🤩 It was a wonderful stay, which will certainly be repeated 😉 Best regards, Kerstin

stayHere II Gorch-Fock-Studio: kitchen, bathroom, balcony
A great flat, very clean and spacious with all amenities. Really well equipped kitchen. The host was very helpful and friendly.

2-room apartment with balcony view of Außenalster
Very nice and clean apartment. Very quiet and convenient area. Slim was very friendly and responsive. Would stay here again!

Studio on 2 levels with fantastic Elbe views
We felt super comfortable from the first moment. The accommodation is modern, stylishly furnished and equipped with everything you need for a relaxing stay. We were particularly impressed by the lovingly designed shared kitchen with snack bar as well as a fridge stocked with soft drinks and selected wines from a regional winemaker. The beach is almost directly opposite and invites you to take relaxing walks and fantastic sunsets. We really lacked nothing. We will be happy to come back!

The wire mill
The old wire mill is a beautiful building in a fantastic location. A lake right in front of the house and a gently rippling waterfall next to the bedroom. In the vicinity, there are forests, lakes and moors that invite you to go hiking. HH, Lübeck and the sea are also not too far away. The condo is well equipped. The landlady and her husband are likeable and helpful. During a guided tour of the mill, Johannes told us a lot about the history of the mill and showed us everything. We enjoyed the time in the old mill very much.

Elbblick Kollmar - Vacation in the front row
We were spontaneously looking for a break in an accessible location. Somewhat surprising we found this house with beautiful views, spacious spaces and good amenities. That convinced us, because we had never heard of it. Overall, we were not disappointed. It was mostly sunny, so we could use the balconies/beach chair. Our daughter found the smaller bedroom super cozy and was willing to get to know the dyke/banks of the Elbe. We'd love to enjoy it again. A thank you to the good care of Yvonne and her delicious crepes:-)).

Delightful mini apartment on the the banks of the Elbe
The small appartment was very clean, very well-equipped and in a lovely situation. The bed was comfortable and all amenities provided. The only disadvantage is not being able to open a window in the bedroom as light and air only comes through the glass front door (and a small kitchen window) but this is already mentioned in the description. Veronica was quick to respond, friendly and helpful. I would stay there again as it is right next to the river Elbe and a small sandy beach and has riverfront restaurants very close. You can walk to Altona Station in 23 minutes or take the bus.

Vacation home Kollmar Elbstrand
Our stay at this place was really enjoyable. There were six of us, three couples, and everyone was very satisfied with the accommodation, the facilities, the rooms and the surroundings. The style of the furnishings did not immediately appeal to everyone, but it was basically varied. The kitchen, the bedrooms and the two bathrooms were particularly noteworthy. The environment is unique and has inspired us all. In summary, a visit to Kollmar is definitely worthwhile. If you are a large family with up to four children, this house is ideal. But it is also an excellent choice for a couple's holiday. We will be happy to come back, should the opportunity. Yours Sincerely, Felix

Bambushaus / Teehaus Kellinghusen
Everything worked out great. We 8 people were very kindly received and everything was explained and shown to us. We all thought the garden with the bamboo was very beautiful.

Bungalow am See
Very nice accommodation and lovingly furnished, you feel right at home! The only thing I have to complain about is the district. This is not very busy right now. It takes about 30 minutes to get to Hamburg by bus, but it was completely fine. For the fact that you have the Öjendorfer See next door, a 5-minute walk away. Happy to come back! Perfect for dogs and humans :)

Cozy house on the dike with apple orchard
We were allowed to spend an extended weekend in Birte's house. From the first moment, we felt very comfortable. The accommodation is very cozy and offers everything you need for a relaxing stay. The quiet location in the middle of the countryside is particularly beautiful - perfect for switching off and relaxing. Thanks to the direct access to the dyke, you can spontaneously watch the passing ships and sheep. The sauna is also a nice bonus (costs extra, but the price is okay). All in all, a completely successful stay – we will be happy to come back!

Thatched cottage on the dike with fireplace near Hamburg
Beautiful, quiet, peaceful, no traffic. Comfortable beds, lovely little patio. Johanna and Philipp were very responsive.

Hidden gem: Flussidyll i.d.Heide
Dear Martina, dear Holger, You are one of the most hospitable and warm hosts we have met so far. Both are extremely helpful, friendly and offer a unique feel-good atmosphere thanks to their cosmopolitan nature. They make their entire property available for exploration and recreation. The area is breathtakingly beautiful, and the surrounding hiking and cycling trails are within easy reach. A special highlight was being able to watch the lucky deer from the sofa while having breakfast. This AirBnb is at the top of the list for a return visit to us! Thank you for a small but absolutely fine break with you.

Stylish country house under thatch. Groups welcome
It was a fantastic time with Anjee and Marco. The apartment has everything your heart desires. You can easily make excursions from there. It is advantageous if you have a car, but you can also make great excursions with the bicycles that you can borrow in the neighboring village, which can be delivered to your doorstep. The area has plenty of things to offer. The apartment invites you to linger comfortably. We spent hours chatting and playing games on the couch. In the kitchen, we baked cakes and prepared fantastic dishes. We relaxed and rested in the rooms. All this was only possible with the great amenities and attention to detail in Anjee and Marco's house.

Dat Au-Huus - Feel good and relax
"Dat Au Huus" is simply worth every cent. It is very lovingly renovated and equipped with everything you need. There's nothing missing. You feel very comfortable right away. Everything is very, very clean and well maintained. You have a lot of space and the garden and terrace are also a dream. Communication with Sonja is very friendly, uncomplicated and fast. Exemplary! And her homemade welcome curd cheese balls were very tasty. 👍 We give everything to Sternen, and definitely recommend this accommodation! Thanks for the nice days.

Cozy place with balcony in Buxtehude
Everything was great, nice apartment, perfect for a few days.

⚓🧙♂️❤ Cozy - Central - Modern - On the canal
It was a great place. We enjoyed the apartment very much. It was very clean and equipped with all the necessary equipment. Would want to stay again 😊

Beautiful granny apartment in the green Alstertal
Goods with 2 adults and 2 children for an extended weekend in the apartment. Perfect for our purposes. Plenty of space, clean and quiet. Very nice and friendly hosts. Located a few meters from the nearest subway but bus stop is not far away. Clear recommendation!

Lünebett - stylish 100 sqm apartment near Lüneburg
It is a very spacious and stylishly furnished apartment. There were four of us and we were very comfortable. You have to take a bus to Lüneburg or take a car (or of course a bike) - but it doesn't take more than 15 minutes at the end. The communication was very friendly and fast at all times - so I can highly recommend the place

Old-building charm over the rooftops of St. Pauli
The KOM with Björn was always smooth and very timely. He was also super flexible, although his own vacation trip was canceled at short notice and he would therefore actually need his apartment himself. Nevertheless, he made it possible and did not confront us at short notice - due to a cancellation on his part - the problem of having to find an affordable accommodation in Hamburg via a long WE at the last minute. 🙂

the Cherry Knife - Hygge Family Space
We were guests of Melanie for the 2nd time and we liked it very much again. Idyllic and quiet location on the Estedeich. The apartment was clean and very well equipped. You can still get to Buxtehude, the old country/Elbe and Hamburg City quickly. Til next time!

Cozy and modern apartment for rent
Everything is great and very clean. Great environment for dogs, 24min walk by the lake to the subway. top. Would love to come back.

central apartment with a big garden near the Beach
Wonderful apartment, very nice hostess. Incredibly beautiful apartment and house. The garden is beautiful and huge, with old tall trees. A fantastic stay! We'd love to come back!!
