Villa Wilen: Top views. Lake access. Popular.
We absolutely loved our stay at Roland’s home. The views from the panoramic room were gorgeous all day and night - whenever we were on the property we were either enjoying that room or down at the peaceful lake shoreline. Roland was extremely helpful, a fantastic communicator, and gave a great recommendation for food. We went in many directions and packed our days full of experiences while here but loved coming “home” to Roland’s property to relax and recharge each day. The local town of Sarnen was also very charming! Would highly recommend this stay.

Villa Aurlandsfjord - Studio flat in Klokkargarden
WOW WOW WOW. I can't even believe we got to stay here. What a privilege! It looks even better than the pictures. The view is unbeatable. Marit was kind and warm, available but not overbearing. I mentioned we were doing the sauna in Aurland (recommend!! Aurland, not Flåm!) and she left towels out for us. messaged to ask how the trip was going and if we needed a shoe dryer. This Airbnb is everything an Airbnb should be and more, Marit is everything an Airbnb host should be and more! Thank you, Marit, for a fantastic stay. Tusen takk!!!

LeBlanche
Lovely place, and well located. We had a welcoming stay, and the host took time to make a tour of the great looking place - truly unique! Very much recommend! Thanks :)

Magical Lighthouse studio with stunning sea views
What a stunning location, looking out on the sea. I spent ages looking at the birds but sadly no sight of dolphins etc. The bothy was so lovely and had everything necessary for a great stay. I hope to return. Thank you

Modern sea front jacuzzi Blue Sky
We had a wonderful 6 days in this incredible apartment! Perfect location to explore Alicante, particularly as there’s a tram stop a couple of minutes walk away, as well as a beach to pop to for a morning dip! The apartment is even lovelier than in the photos and we loved spending time there (and in the hot tub on the roof terrace) looking out at the beautiful sea and mountain view.s. Communication with the hosts was excellent and we felt very well looked after. Thank you so much.

Panoramic apartment right on the lake
It was perfect thanks to the friendly Maria and the nice house However, you should always check the number 21 bus dispatch time.

Bambusae: one-bedroom apartment in lakeside villa
Our absolutely favourite stay in Italy! Just loved the apartment and the surrounding gardens. Marzia was very welcoming and on arrival and gave us a grand tour of the total complex and gardens (which were absolutely stunning!!) The apartment was lovely, and very comfortable, and having an outdoor patio was definitely a bonus! It was very private and relaxing, but only a 20 minute walk into Bellagio tourist area There was a supermarket, and some lovely restaurants close by. Both Marzia and Lorenzo were great to liaize with and we loved our stay with them so much, that we are definitely returning next year

PortaFelice Apt • Sea View Terrace Palazzo Amoroso
Giovanni was a fantastic host. He accommodated our needs for checkin. The view from the rooms was beautiful and even more beautiful from the outside terrace and rooftop deck it was walkable to so many great restaurants and all that we wanted to see in Palermo. He gave great recommendations and was very responsive if we had questions. The air conditioning worked great and the basket of goodies and water were such a welcome treat to get us started so that we didn’t have to get things after our long flight. Hope we will be back!

Waterfront Cottage on the Applecross Peninsula
Tigh A'Mhulillin is a beautiful and peaceful place. We've just spent a week enjoying spectacular weather and scenery and observing the wildlife from the house. The house is immaculate, well equipped and extremely comfortable with lovely touches. Jamie has thought of everything. Thank you.

House on a cliff ❤ frontline & amazing seaview
Stunning cliff-side location in Cala en Porter. Has recently been refurbished to a high standard with 3 double rooms with 3 bathrooms. One bathroom feels like it’s been built into the cliff. Amazing sunsets, we didn’t want to leave. If you’re nimble you can walk down the cliff and access the sea using a small ladder. Kayak trips to visits local caves are quite fun. Johannes couldn’t be more helpful.

Skagenbrygga, Lofoten and Vesterålen
What a fantastic place to stay! Furnished 💚 with great attention to detail, it radiates an incredible calm. The location is simply unique - ideal for switching off and enjoying. From check-in to checkout, everything went smoothly. The furnishings are of high quality and there is everything you need. Everything was very clean and well maintained. The sauna is an absolute highlight - an unforgettable experience, especially at midnight sun! ☀️ The host was always available and very friendly. Overall, an exceptionally beautiful accommodation, perfect for relaxing – absolutely recommended!

Private Country House near Douro with hot tub.
What a lovely stay! We immediately had to take our own photos to show the family. The property is very well presented, and we were provided with fresh fruit and eggs on arrival. We also had access to the private garden (more like a forest), which led down to the river. An unexpected surprise! We recommend to anyone looking at this listing!

Seaside boathouse at Sokn, Stavanger
It was a fantastic stay and besides the fact that the place is lovely, the hospitality of Jostein made our holiday to be special. Thanks a lot!

Casa Ileana (CIN: IT072035C200034605)
The most incredible home we have ever stayed at, it felt like a dream. Mario, was a fantastic host, the house was beautifully decorated, the view was stunning, the location was 10/10. We will never forget our stay at Casa lleana, and hope to come back again!

Appartment in a canalhouse in central Amsterdam!
This AirBnb is all about the location. It is in a great spot near restaurants and many of the sights of Amsterdam. Right around the corner is a shop to rent a bike, or you can walk to public transportation in a few minutes. It’s next to a canal and the street location is blocked from cars driving past so the noise is minimal. The bed is very firm, but clean and comfortable. The shower is spacious and well done. It is a large space with lots of room to sit and relax. It is down one flight of stairs. This is a basement bedroom, but light and airy. This not a hotel room. But again, its location is the best. The owner is quite lovely and helpful. There is plenty of room for your luggage, but no closets or dresser to put items away. Well worth it!

Unique beach-house
Beautiful bright beach house lovingly furnished in Scandinavian style in a fantastic location directly on the beach. The view from the balcony and the small rose-covered terrace to the Baltic Sea is uniquely beautiful. Anja is a warm hostess and has prepared everything for our stay down to the smallest detail and conjured up a unique feel-good atmosphere. Thank you very much for this great long weekend on the Danish coast.
Waterfront condo accommodation

Prinsengracht 969, your home to explore Amsterdam
We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was very nice, peaceful, convenient and situated in a nice neighbourhood. Helena was very helpful and allowed us to store our luggage at the apartment until we needed to go to the airport. Helena also gave us some very good local recommendations

Luxury apartment in green Amsterdam Noord
Great stay. Ingrid and her husband welcomed us very well. The apartment was as described and allowed us to discover Amsterdam. Metro or ferry station nearby, easily accessible with bikes provided free of charge by the hosts.

Romantic Auroraspot by the sea with private quay
Cozy apartment, stunning view of the fjord and a perfect location that places you near the city itself and the surrounding fjords and mountains you will want to explore. But even more impressive is the way Simen treats you. Kind, easy to reach and definitely someone who’ll give you a warm welcome. Too bad that I got captured by the beauty of the fjords and mountains that I couldn’t chat a bit more with him. I wish all the best for Simen and his family. I promised myself I would return to Tromsø area very soon - and I’ll try to book Simen’s place again (as long as it’s not already booked, because it’s a gem!)

Boulevard77 - SUN-seaside app.-55m2 - free parking
We had a wonderful time at this beachfront home. The location is fantastic and the area offers many opportunities for recreation and exploration. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful – their tips for excursions and activities were very valuable. The apartment itself is very luxuriously furnished and equipped with everything you need. We felt completely comfortable and can absolutely recommend this place!

Cobblerview Apartment
We had an excellent stay at Cobblerview Apartment! The view was, of course, gorgeous - but the care that Carol & Don took in ensuring our stay was comfortable was greatly appreciated and made our experience especially enjoyable. The apartment is cosy and immediately inviting, with a sizable living room space and dining table positioned next to the window and looking out onto Loch Long. Though the view you have of the loch itself is expansive, we never felt as though we didn’t have enough privacy - aside from this window out onto the water, almost all of the natural light that filters in is through skylights. We never needed for utensils or utilities, Carol & Don provided a full range of crockery, cleaning supplies and towels It’s worth bearing in mind that as this is a waterfront property, the bugs are in abundance around summer and you’ll need to have your spray on if you want to sit out on the balcony this time of year!

Historic canal house in the middle of De Jordaan!
Morningstar is a beautiful place to stay. The apartment is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The location could not be better. It is right across the canal from The Ann Frank house. There are many wonderful cafes and restaurants nearby. The hosts have thought of everything. I would highly recommend to anyone!

M188 - Panorama Wolfgangsee
We had an amazing stay at Nora & Peter's property recently. The apartment looks even better than the photos and the view is absolutely breathtaking. We have enjoyed our tea in the balcony watching beautiful sunsets. The apartment is very well equipped and very thoughtful designed by the hosts. Everything is exceptionally clean . The kitchen was also very well stocked which was helpful for us to make meals occasionally. We also were in love with this town, loved to walk by the lake. Its so peaceful. In the summers, this lake is filled with water activities, swimming etc. There is a small convenient store 2 min down the road. Nora and Peter were constantly in touch with us and were very helpful from the start to the end. This is one of the best properties we have lived in and Nora & Peter are absolutely the best hosts which made our stay so memorable. We will definitely stay here again in the future.

Lakehouse Apartment with Hot Tub and Sauna
Mary was so lovely and welcoming. She was easily contactable and so warm and friendly. We were keen to have a bit of privacy and she left us to our own devices to enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The location of the apartment is really spectacular. Sitting in the hot tub looking out on the lake was a real highlight of the trip.
