Waterfront apartment accommodation

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.

Jewel in Zurich's Seefeld am See
Excellent accommodation in Zurich! Super easy tram access for getting around the city as well as walkable from the front door. Loved the proximity to parks, grocery, waterfront, and great restaurants. The flat is clean, fully stocked kitchen, and very beautifully decorated. Couldn't have asked for a better stay!

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 :)

Your Stylish Lakeside Escape - Sleeps 2–3 guests
We felt very comfortable in this bright studio. Very clean, tasteful and practical (kitchen) furnished. Communication with the hosts was also uncomplicated and pleasant. Very happy to come back.

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

Lake Lucerne Paradise - 2 bedrs, lake view, centre
Isabella's place was just amazing for our family of 4 . Can't beat the views and the location. Although it was such a central location, noise was not an issue. if you want a chill evening or if its raining as it did for us one evening , we just stayed in , enjoying the mountains/lake and sipping wine from our balcony !! Totally recommend it and would love to come back here. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us.

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

The hosts were very helpful and friendly. The house was in great condition

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 organization because 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.

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

Panorama view to the Alps - Hochrhein house
Christine’s place was spacious and perfect for our stay. The location is great and the house is well stocked. Thank you, Christine!

Rustic chalet in Schwändi
Very spacious, neat and clean apartment. Jeannette was very easy to reach and had proactively provided us with all the necessary information in advance. We liked it very much in Schwändi and we felt very comfortable in the apartment. Thank you for the warm hospitality.

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!

Charming, spacious holiday apartment
Beautiful, modern furnished apartment with a direct view to the lake. I had a fantastic week in the apartment of Thomas and Katharina and would love to come back.

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
This accommodation was gorgeous and comfortable, and right near the waterfront. The entire place was very clean and had all the amenities we needed for our stay. There were nice hiking and walking areas nearby. It was peaceful and quiet during our stay and we felt right at home. A big thank you to our host, Esther, for being very responsive and making our first stay as easy as possible!

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.

Stayly Chez-Marie Aussicht I See & Berge I Luzern
The apartment was lovely, the view of the lake is breathtaking! Marie was very responsive, kind and helpful. The guests before us left quite a mess in the kitchen, but otherwise the place was clean. It can get hot with no AC, so perhaps adding some fans could really help. Also equipting the kitchen with more utensils and cooking tools would be great :)
