Rental unit in Pully
4.99 out of 5 average rating, 93 reviewsCharming and large apartment in the heart of Pully
A bright and spacious apartment which is perfectly situated very close to the station (trains 3 mins to Central station), to the lake for swimming and the ferry stop for exploring further. The apartment was spotless and comfortable and warm! All amenities were fantastic, including bathrooms and comfy bed. There is a separate dining room and living room (with a second table) and the space feels very generous. The kitchen was really well equipped and I really enjoyed the peaceful location down a lovely little side street. I'd certainly stay here again rather than in central Lausanne. Anne-Sophie was a great host and greeted me on arrival, and incredibly kind when I thought I'd forgotten something right after checking out. There is a huge amount to do in the local area and Anne-Sophie has carefully left a great selection of information about everything. Thank you for the introduction to Pully!
Guesthouse in Lutry
4.97 out of 5 average rating, 100 reviews#Lavaux
Sonia and Juliens place was absolutely Fantastic, way above and beyond expectations. Exactly as described online and so much more. Our host were very responsive and extremely hospitable, they allowed us to check in early and were always messaging to see if there was Anything that we needed, even left extra towels, fresh figs and chocolate for us. The view out the window to Lake Geneva was spectacular! Being able to wake up and see that view was breathtaking, something I will Never forget. We traveled alot within travel and the convenience of the nearby train station in Boissiere was very helpful for that as it was only about a 10 to 15 minute walk away. I would recommend Sonia and Juliens place to anyone and when I come back would definitely stay again. Thank you Both again for allowing us the use of your beautiful home.

Rental unit in Saint-Sulpice
4.95 out of 5 average rating, 57 reviewsModern and spacious studio
By far, one of the best Airbnb experiences I've had. The place was clean, bright, and well-appointed. Plenty of everything I needed. The hosts were really wonderful - great local suggestions when I inquired and very warm and friendly. The location was excellent. Easy access to the lake, trails, bus, little restaurants and shops nearby. Safe, cozy, and lovely. I intend to return ASAP!

I would recommend this Airbnb. I came for a weekend with my girlfriend and we have a little cocoon in the middle of Lausanne, no noise outside. If you're up in the air, don't worry, Alexandra has everything planned, you can come with peace of mind

Rental unit in Paudex
5 out of 5 average rating, 36 reviews2 bedroom apartment, w terrace
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Helene's! She greeted us on arrival (despite us giving little heads up when we would arrive) and answered any and all questions we had. The location was great for exploring Lausanne and the surrounding areas. The nearby supermarket was handy and the unit was equipped with everything we needed to make breakfast each morning. She provided a pack and play, changing table, and baby bath for our 3 month old as well as some boys and games for our 3 year old. The beds were some of the most comfortable we've stayed in.
