“Schwarzhorn” modern chalet apartment from 1768
Some places feel special not just because of the stay, but because of the person behind it. Your warmth, patience, and genuine care made this experience truly memorable and made us feel right at home. The apartment itself is beautiful — cozy, thoughtfully arranged, and filled with a peaceful charm that reflects your personality.

ONA Stay I Group & Family Apartment I 3 bedrooms
Perfect stay! Everything was as described and the views were AMAZING. It’s a quiet town, but easy to get to all major towns. Train is walkable (took 10 mins with 3 kids!) and if you plan correctly it’s super easy: leave at the top of every hour, you will catch the quarter past the hour train. Perfect timing every time. The host and cohosts were EXTREMELY helpful and kind! This place has EVERYTHING you need and more!

One & Only Cottage
Both Regula and her husband, Satcha, were extremely helpful and welcoming. They walked us through the entire property, explaining how everything worked....they even had the pool cleaned spotlessly...they had an outdoor pizza oven and a small garden with herbs for your cooking, and lettuce growing which we were welcome to use. The house had everything that we could have possibly needed, and they checked on us a couple of times to make sure that we had everything that we need. I would highly recommend this home for your traveling and vacation needs!

Cozy apartment in the countryside
It was a beautiful place with a amazing view. The connection to public transportation was easy and it was a perfect getaway at night when we wanted to be away from the tourists after a full day of traveling. I would recommend for any couple looking for a place that has great views while also offering a slightly more village feel.

Panorama Apartment "am Rugen"
Livia's place is great, everything was spotless and comfortable. She gave us a crib with a cool gift for our daughter. The balcony has a beautiful view, and the apartment has everything you need to cook, wash clothes, etc. She was very helpful during our stay. Super recommend.

Studio Apartment Lungern-Obsee
A beautiful location - all you need for a couple to stay for great value. Thank you Monika!

OO Seeterrasse
Pricilla went above and beyond our expectations.

Lovely 2 room apartment in historic Brienz
This was our first time at an Airbnb and we were extremely comfortable interacting with Regina. The place we stayed is highly underrated we believe. Brienz is an awesome neighbourhood, must visit and stay
