Waterfront apartment rentals

Completely new apartment
Jens is a great host and his place is exactly what we expected after seeing the photos. The flat is very accessible to the city via public transportation and accessible to the airport. We rented bikes not far from the flat and used these to get around, as well. There are several restaurants in the neighborhood that were nice to visit. The flat is away from the city activity but accessible thus making the flat very much a nice place to retreat to after a day of fun.

Exclusive 140 m2, 3 bedroom apartment by the water
Everything was just perfect for us. The apartment is beautiful and very large. 1 bedroom with a double bed and 2 bedrooms with simple beds. Huge living room /kitchen area. Super modern and with all the necessary amenities is a new area of Copenhagen. Bus line 350m away. Metro station 600m (which is what we used). The fact that it was not in the centre did not bother us but note that it takes a bit of time to get back to the apartment if you need during the day...so you do not go back there for no reason during the day. But it is in a super quiet and safe area and the view over the water is gorgeous as you wake up in the morming.

Famous Nyhavn 17 Copenhagen Icon
This place is perfect. Highly recommend it as it close to everything you need - shops, restaurants, and the metro. Claus was great with recommendations and communication and was helpful in everything. Can’t wait to come back!

Water view apartment
We had the best time in Kopenhagen! The city ist amazing and so is Jakob‘s and Martin‘s appartment. It was exactly as pictured (beautiful and stylish, high grade and still comfy), perfectly located (close to the center but quiet, right at the river, shops, restaurants and even beaches close by). The communication was smooth and the two of them were super friendly, very helpful and provided us with decent tips for exploring Kopenhagen. We highly recommend staying here (though would love for it to be our secret spot :) and would absolutely love to come back.

Lux Waterfront Rooftop Apartment
Jan-Cayo is a great host, quick and caring to respond! The home he set up has the cozy atmosphere of the Danish hygge, the environment is quiet and also with the famous water view of Copenhagen, and it is super recommended to stay in his house to feel Copenhagen. Thank you Jan-Cayo!

Skipper's Sailor Penthouse
Excellent location, we felt like we were able to walk to everything that we wanted to do. The area felt safe and peaceful. The apartment was even better than the pictures. It was large and had a nice amenities. We absolutely loved it and would stay here again when we return to Copenhagen.

Views apartment in Nyhavn directly to the water
This is the perfect place to stay if you are visiting Copenhagen. Right in the heart of the Nyhavn area filled with bars and restaurants, beautiful scenery, 3 mins from the metro. We loved using this place as our base to explore the city. Jesper was really friendly and gave us a very warm welcome and showed us all round the house. Highly recommend this place

Modern apartment in CPH
mazing flat with beautifully tasteful Danish interior design. The host, Sébastien, was incredibly friendly and kind, making our stay even more enjoyable. The location is perfect—central enough that we could walk almost everywhere. Honestly, it’s one of the most beautiful Airbnb apartments we’ve ever stayed in. Highly recommended!
Waterfront house rentals

Waterfront house
We loved our stay at Lennart's house in Copenhagen. Great area with easy access to the water-taxi (2m walk) and the new M4 Line Metro station (10m walk) so access to the city was perfect. Lovely area to stay. Lots of folks swimming, boating and paddle-boarding so you get a feel for Danish water-life! Supermarkets and cafes nearby. The house was amazing, very clean and well equipped. 4 storeys high with steep internal concrete steps inside (check the photos). Don't come here if you have mobility issues or any old knee injuries. If you like fitness - you'll love it ! Lennart was very helpful and communicative leading up to the booking and responded very quickly to my questions. The house was easy to find, easy to get into and we had no trouble finding everything we needed. If you do make use of the kayak and SUPs - the life-jackets can be found under the barbecue cover. Be safe. We had excellent weather whilst there. Made great use of the CPH Discovery cards too. Lots to see in the city!

House directly to beach, close to S-train and shopping
Fantastic house, really well organized and cosy inside and very beautifully set outside towards the sea.

Wake up to the view of the ocean
Stylish and well equipped residence on the ground floor of a house. Covered of street parking area. Large garden. Close to a clean water beach with good bathing facilities. Cycle lane up the coast takes you to a large forest park with many walking and cycling paths. 2km walk to Hellerup station with quick trains into Copenhagen. Also a bus from outside the house if you prefer waiting to walking.

Terraced house, close to everything in Copenhagen
Morten has been the perfect host. and his apartment is an authentic luxury.

Modern summer home
A good stay in an exotic, peaceful and pleasant environment. Michelle, remotely, is attentive and very responsive. The house is in the countryside, but close to Copenhagen. Direct access to the sea from the back of the property is much appreciated. Many things were available, from spices to bikes to paddleboards. The impression is very positive and we can't wait to be back in the near future. And all of that with good weather. In addition, the Danes are welcoming, caring and not anxious! We highly recommend this property!

Ocean view, 1.row. Architectural pearl
A great house in the best location directly on the sea. You could look at the changing water and the birds all day. The communication with Peter is straightforward and accommodating. We really liked the friendly cats and really enjoyed the stay.

Close to metro (airport and city centre)
A stunning house within east reach of the city, the airport and the beaches. A gorgeous family who rent it out and amazing clean and beautifully furnished place. A wonderful outdoor space as well to watch the world go by and soak up some sun. If you are thinking about coming to Copenhagen then look no further than staying here.

By Öresund
Had a really nice stay, the airbnb is directly at the sea and the sunsets are amazing!
Waterfront condo rentals

apartment with water view and 7 min walk from Metro
Fadia was a great host and always responded to messages if i had a question. The apartment was spacious and well located in a peaceful area. There was a coffee shop and mini supermarket 3 mins away and the metro was also only about 5-10 minutes! Apartment was very clean and free of clutter. A lovely space to spend a few days whilst visiting the Christmas Market at Tivoli.

Luxury apartment surrounded by water, city life and nature
There is no amount of money that could beat the view Maria is giving you with her place. Incredible host, the best views of Copenhagen, great value, easy access. If given the opportunity, will always stay here.

Harbour view, balcony & garage with car charger
The unit owner’s son met us and showed us around. The location was excellent. Their recommendation of Scarpetta was appreciated. Preben communicated well and responded promptly.

Apartment in the middle of CPH
Stay here if you want to feel like a true local in Copenhagen! The location is 10/10 and the balcony view is the best way to start and end your day. There is an elevator for easy access with suitcases and Carl was able to give us an early check in due to our early arrival. It’s worth noting it does feel like a true Airbnb, like you’re staying in someone’s house with all of their things around (but if you enjoy this - it adds to the charm of feeling like home). There is no aircon which during late August didn’t bother us at all and wasn’t necessary. Overall loved our stay here!

West facing balcony, 7th floor, view of harbor and city
The experience was excellent! Apartment, modern, beautiful, well located and with a spectacular view! I recommend it!

Modern waterfront apartment, 2 private terraces
All good - thank you a lot!

Bright and arty architectural icon by "B.I.G."
It belongs to a relatively high end neighborhood, which is great!Easy to get around, indoor stairs, not very suitable with elderly and special small children.

Canal-View Retreat in Copenhagen’s South Harbor
The apartment was impeccably clean and perfectly located! We felt completely at home. Communication was flawless as well. Would love to stay again anytime!
