Chalet Alderaan
Fantastic cottage with mountain views that is very comfortable and in great location. The hosts communicated proactively, provided loads of helpful info and directions and were very kind and accommodating. Fantastic hosts, would come back in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything!

Home Rubin apartment
Olivia and her mother Yolanda are very helpful and friendly. They helped us with helpful tips. Check-in and check-out are very easy and based on mutual trust. We felt very comfortable in the apartment and there is enough space for 6 people. The location is very good and accessible by public transport or by car. Thank you again for allowing us to enjoy this warm home. We will be happy to come back.

Beautiful chalet - amazing view
We had a wonderful weekend, the cottage is a little far from the center, quiet, but still within walking distance. The interior is beautiful, well decorated with everything you need to cook and have fun (a bonus point for the small indoor ping pong table!). And of course the beautiful views of the mountains!

Spacious Farmhouse Apartment, by Lake & Mountains
We were great at the house. Awesome garden and the kids enjoyed the trampoline.

Beautiful cottage in the heart of nature!
I had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful chalet and it was just fantastic! The location is perfect, surrounded by breathtaking nature and with a magnificent view of the mountains. The chalet itself is lovingly decorated and offers a perfect blend of coziness and modern comfort. Marco was extremely friendly and helpful, so I immediately felt at home. The amenities left nothing to be desired – from the fully equipped kitchen to the cozy fireplace, which provided a warm atmosphere. A very special highlight was the sweet cat, named Shoukran, she was incredibly friendly and provided a warm atmosphere. I highly recommend this chalet!
