Lovely place in quiet surroundings, private beach
A paradise accessible after a steep path but paradise has a price The cabin was perfect. We had a timeless time. Thanks again for hosting us and for letting us enjoy this cabin. The views are breathtaking We will definitely be back. Thanks again Audrey, Simon and the kids.

Lauvtjønnhytta
I guess its like stepping back 100 years but with 2 bars of 5G. Lovely basic cabin next to an idyllic lake in the middle of nowhere. No running water or electricity so you have to plan ahead a little before your stay ( powerbank, drinking water,headlamp and non perishable food). We had the best weather ever in June but be prepared for the mygg around the lake when the wind drops. Big fish in the lake.

Central and sunny loft, with 2 bedrooms
Splendid apartment in a prestine location! Lovely little balcony and good communication from host.

New home by the water in Grimstad
We had a wonderful stay in this accommodation, which perfectly reflects the peaceful and bright soul of Norway. Everything is thought out with taste, simplicity and comfort. The view is simply magical — a true living painting at any time of the day. The apartment was impeccably clean, very well equipped, and perfectly located to discover Grimstad and its surroundings. A huge thank you to our host for his attentive and discreet welcome. This place helped make our trip a calm, beautiful and inspiring break. We leave with a light heart, with the desire to return.

Charming Sørlandshus by the water
We had a great stay👍😊

Lovely apartment me own private bathing jetty
We are very happy with our stay. The apartment corresponded to the description and is beautifully located by the sea. Walking distance (or short bus ride) to the center of Arendal. The apartment matched the photos and was open, bright and cozy and well cleaned. Arne is a very pleasant and proactive host who responds quickly and is prepared to help. Highly recommend both Arne as a host and his apartment!

Summer idyll in the archipelago
We loved it! Unanimously, whether it was the children, the parents or the grandparents. The house has toys, so the children took advantage of them. On the island, there is the possibility of playing tennis, volleyball, soccer, and the like, we were able to enjoy it fully. Being able to go by boat was something that everyone loved. The accommodation is great, with outdoor areas for eating or enjoying. Everything was perfect. Thank you again.

Central cottage in quiet and idyllic surroundings
Great, well-maintained, charming and undisturbed little cabin in scenic and quiet surroundings! Everything matched the description and the place absolutely met expectations. The cabin was very clean and tidy when we arrived and we felt at home there right away! Good communication with quick and complete responses from the landlord both ahead of and during your stay. A cozy cabin with cozy and helpful landlord. A place that we are more than happy to visit again! 🥰
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

Holiday house, Øysang/Riser, pool
We had an amazing long weekend at Jegertunet! The place was just as described – incredibly cozy and absolutely perfect for us: six adults, four children around 10 years old, and a happy dog. The kids stayed in the pool from the time we arrived until we left, with the slide, hot tub and sauna as big favorites. The porch became our focal point for playing, barbecuing and relaxing in the sun. We didn't need to bring anything at all – everything was in place and ready to go, making the stay extra easy and pleasant. We explored the surrounding area with great trips to both the sea and the water nearby, and the tennis court was used extensively by the little ones. An extra bonus was the nice trip to Risør with the small ferry, and the fun visit to the aquarium that created a lot of joy for the whole family. We can highly recommend both the place and the landlord – here you really get everything you need for a super holiday. We would gladly came back!

Southern idyll by the sea, jacuzzi, Zoo,Golf
Cozy and nice place. It could be a bit cramped with 15 people in total, children and adults, if the weather had been bad, but we were warned about that in advance. Big plus for flexible check out time.

Villa: Private Beach/Jacuzzi/Sauna/Canoe, near Zoo
Great stay. The location and view were top notch. We were especially happy that there was a canoe to borrow and take a trip on rivers. Unfortunately, there was an error with the waterworks when we were there, so the water was dirty. However, this was not something Warda could do about, and she was great at keeping us updated and paid for the water we had to buy during the stay.

Stay in a sailboat in Arendal guest harbor.
Great location

Arendal-Arendalsuka
Our family of two adults and two small children had the pleasure of renting Kristina's very cozy summer house in the center of Arendal for 4 days now in July. A small house with lots of soul and charm, a cozy sheltered garden to drink your morning coffee in, and not least; walking distance to everything you need! Within 5 minutes there is a beach, downtown streets with restaurants and cafes, and the harbor with the boats to the surrounding islands. Even though it is very central, the area is also quiet and peaceful, great for families with children. Recommended!

Townhouse at sea
This is a fantastically beautiful house with a stunning view. Everything in the house works perfectly. I stayed here with my three kids, and they loved the numerous toys available, especially the Nerf guns and water pistols. The medium-sized trampoline in the garden was great for keeping my energetic boys busy, and there is a playground with swings just outside the door, with another playground within walking distance. For the price of a hotel room, you get an entire beautiful, modern house with two roof terraces. What's not to love? Additionally, Carl and Mari responded quickly to all our requests. Fantastic experience!

Sørland cabin with panoramic views and private jetty
The house of Morten is very beautiful and has a phenomenal view of the fjord . The whole kitchen items are numerous, especially sharp knives. We especially loved the pizza oven. The only improvement would be a boiler. The surrounding and the few made me feel like living in paradise. I will come back again.

Seaside detached house with jetty in southern idyll.
The accommodation is wonderfully located in a typical southern environment, even has its own and some private beach spot. Perfect reception, the host makes sure everything went smoothly from arrival to departure. The accommodation is very spacious, even though we were five adults there we had more than enough space.

Sørlandsidyll - View property in Kolbjørnsvik
Lovely house with excellent location in idyllic Kolbjørnsvik. We liked it so much last year that we came back:). We love the views! And grilling on the terrace, the light, the peace and quiet, and how easy it is to get to town (the teens come and go as they please with the charming ferry, no need for a car). House is as described, and very bright with the morning sun). Kitchen exceptionally well stocked. Very responsive and helpful hosts.

House for rent near Arendal.
The house is located with great views and direct access to the river. Lovely terrace. The place is very suitable for kayaking on the river and in the archipelago.

Charming apartment, near the sea with backyard idyll
We had an incredibly nice stay at Linda😊's place Very cozy place with everything you need, perfect base for a stay in Southern Norway. We were incredibly lucky with the weather and got to take advantage of the swimming area right nearby🌞In addition, the private patio was great for dinner outdoors. Linda has been nice and accommodating from the first contact. She has given the impression of wanting us to thrive and even tended to freshly baked 😍

Sørlandshus in idyllic Holmesunsund for rent
Niclas' cabin is truly a gem. We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful place. Quiet, beautiful surroundings with many hiking and swimming opportunities. We will undoubtedly return. 😄 Thank you very much.

Charming "boathouse" with private pier
lovely little cottage in one of my favourite places in Norway. We loved sitting on the dock with the fire watching the kids fish in the evening. Highly recommend!
