Cozy 4 1/2 room apartment in the most beautiful nature
We spent two weeks at Brigitte and Sepp's place while visiting family in Switzerland. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. We absolutely loved it. This has been a most amazing and wonderful experience. Brigitte and Sepp are kind, wonderful people and went above and beyond to make our stay a great experience. I can wholeheartedly recommend a stay at Brigitte and Sepp's. The apartment is upstairs with a separate entrance, and has a full kitchen and three bedrooms. It was spotlessly clean, nicely decorated and had everything and more than we needed for our stay. The nearby villages of Sattel and Steinerberg have all the necessities for daily live, i.e. small grocery stores, bakeries, banks, gas stations, restaurants. The town of Schwyz is about 20 minutes away and has bigger shopping centers and more amenities.

Exceptional apartment with terrace and sauna
Great place, with a very friendly hostess. Felt very comfortable from the first moment. The whole place has been very cozily furnished down to the smallest detail.

Lake apartment | Full lake view/Very close to the lake
We had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! Andrea was incredibly welcoming and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The house itself was bright, spacious, and thoughtfully designed—full of natural light and equipped with all the functional amenities possibly needed. The highlight, without a doubt, was the stunning view of the lake. Whether enjoying a morning coffee or relaxing in the evening, the scenery was absolutely stunning. We would gladly return. Highly recommended!

Bohne Emmental
Apartment was beautiful, clean and had all needs covered for the stay from kitchen to bathroom. There is an open terrace with chairs and table with a nice view to the mountains. Worth staying :)

Swiss Paradise Weggis
Amazing views, nice apartment, close to the town. About 30 min drive to Lucerne. Would stay here again.

Mussmann Tasting
As a family with two small children (4 and 6 years), we spent wonderful days in Ludger's apartment. The selection of books and toys is phenomenal, the apartment is equipped with everything you need in everyday life. The apartment is clean, there is enough of everything. Ludger is very friendly and very easy to reach. We had self-inflicted problems with the toaster, Ludger replaced it directly. Highly recommended, the value for money is great!

Löwe Apartments – Near Rhine, Parking & Smart TV
Everything was top notch. The apartment had everything we needed for our stay over the weekend. Franzi responded quickly and gave us understandable instructions incl. Photos delivered for check-in. Directly below the apartment is a restaurant where you can eat very tasty. It was quiet and cozy.

100m to the lake: Dreamlike penthouse
We found the stay excellent; the host’s kindness and quick responses left us very pleased.

holidayhouse / holidayflat old city Rheinfelden
This year, we visited Marcello & Sandra’s lovely home once again. As always, it’s a clean, charming, and stylish place. It’s also a peaceful, quiet, and calm Airbnb home. Marcello answered all our questions and was always helpful whenever we needed anything. He is a very attentive and warm host. We’re thinking of staying here again.

A cosy apartment with lake access
We were very happy with our stay, everything was lovely and the hosts went above and beyond to make it a nice stay. Perfect for a small family and great location.

Vacation in a 400-year-old Glarus house
Pleasant stay in this charming apartment decorated with Esther's beautiful illustrations. Esther had provided us with the GlarnerlandPass, which allowed us to travel free of charge throughout the valley by public transport. However, this requires a little organisation as there is only one train per hour. Beautiful playgrounds for children, such as the one right next to the apartment and a great time spent at the Kinderbaustelle in Luchsingen.

Grosses Haus am Sempachersee
Loved our stay, truly beautiful home and perfect for our family (2 adult couples couples and a family of 3 with 6 year old). Child friendly with safe bedding and available books and toys to play with. Great location 5 minutes from train station and 2 blocks walk from COOP grocery store. A few things to get used to as being from USA appliances are slightly different, but we knew that ahead of time. Also thankful for the previous review that mentioned needing to buy additional toilet paper if staying more than a few days, it was easy to pick up with our groceries. Hosts were very responsive and kind with the questions we had. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and will remember our trip fondly and our stay here.

"Villa Wolfsgrund" - 5* luxury design cottage
It was easily one of the best Airbnb stays we've ever had. The place is so spacious and well designed. From the sun room to the garden to the fully equipped kitchen and the fireplace. It was the perfect home base for our family of five to travel all over the black forest. Sam and Jenny were always a text away for every question we had, and we're very helpful and welcoming. The lake is just a 5 minute walk from the house, and the market is just as close. We loved it, and highly recommend it on a visit to the black forest

Ancient mill - monument of cultural heritage
Thank you for having us in your beautiful home. It's very comfortable, decorate with love and a lot of taste. All are very clean, and there's everything we needed for our week-long stay with a small family . Thank you for your warm welcome, for the fresh eggs from your chicken coop. It's beautiful little sheep, they love it. We are walking in the village and in the forest around, very easy. At night we saw little deer 🥰 on the road. Thanks Eva and Yves

Holiday home on Lake Sarnersee
Well-maintained family home in a prime location by the lake, close to the train station and shopping facilities. There is so much to do - sports, hiking, cycling, lakes, museums. Very nice landlords who always have time for you.

Just for you: Romantic farmhouse Bödeliweidli
We had a wonderful stay with Isabelle and Heinz in their beautiful house in the Emmental. We enjoyed the tranquility and the view. Bern (!) and Burgdorf (Franz-Gertsch-Museum) were very worthwhile. Climbing the Napf is also recommended. Thank you Isabelle and Heinz for your hospitality and the good care! We hope to return soon.

STAYY On Top of Everything -Penthouse near Airport
Strongly recommended. Perfect place for our working week in the area. Will definitely stay there again anytime I need to be in the area. Thank you Patrick for your responsiveness and proactive guidance every step of our stay.

Relax at Lake Constance
There were four of us in the apartment for an extended weekend. Communication with Lina was great and very friendly. For example, Edeka/DM can be reached on foot. The location is 1a, directly on the Seerhein, a bus stop is directly in front of the door. Alternatively, it is about 20 minutes on foot to the old town. We felt very comfortable and would be happy to come back.

Ägerisee vacation home with wellness and sauna
Everything was very good the view is perfect the home is very clean I enjoyed with my time me and my family I advice everyone to book

Silva-Nigra-Chalet Garten-Studio
Great and beautiful remote location to find some peace and quiet in the Schwarzwald!

Vacation home "Rheinblick," Büsingen am Hochrhein
We had a wonderful weekend away with our family! The apartment was everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Lots to do, plus we enjoyed sitting on the balcony and eating :) thanks so much Isabelle and Family!

Modern, cozy and central in a hiking paradise
Such an amazing stay!! We were here for a week and it was idyllic and peaceful. Emmetten is a friendly town in a beautiful setting. The apartment was extremely clean and had everything we needed. Maya was an excellent host. She is very responsive and even brought us some eggs from her hens. The Volg grocery store is about a 4 minute walk, but there is also Ruadis Marcht which is even closer. We loved this little store. If you are into buying local, stop by. They bake different types of sourdough bread daily and you can get fresh eggs, pastas, dairy and meats from local producers. There were excellent hiking trails all around. We had an amazing stay and would recommend Maya’s place to anyone.

Beautiful apartment right on the lake
Beautiful location - quiet and peaceful. Super responsive host and everything was clean and lovely. It was perhaps a little far out of Zurich for our needs so we didn’t get to enjoy the serenity as much as we would have liked. Would absolutely recommend to anyone needing peace and quiet away from the city.

Loft am See
My wife and I had a magical few days at Rita's loft. The situation is incredibly tranquil with lapping water and birdsong and the Loft is thoughtfully designed with a high spec and everything we needed. Rita was a friendly, informative and responsive host and we look forward to returning soon.
