Apartment Grey
The apartment is absolutely gorgeous. Everything feels luxurious and well thought out. We spent 4 days in Zadar and walked everywhere, since the apartment is right in the old city centre. It was a truly lovely vacation💕

Vittoriosa Seafront Highly Furnished Apartment FL2
Ryan is such a great host. His information and guidance before check in was comprehensive, including all we needed to know about the immediate locality and area. He very kindly allowed us to check in a little earlier than planned. The apartment is exactly as the pictures and has the most stunning harbour views to enjoy and the sun stays on the balconies for a good deal of the day. The beds are comfortable and linen good. Considerately we were also left a couple of bottles of water and a bottle of wine when we arrived which was much appreciated too! It wasn't an issue for us, but there are a couple of short flights of stairs to reach the apartment (no lift) to be aware of if you have mobility issues or a lot of heavy luggage. Ryan was extremely responsive during our stay and he's a fantastic host!

Seaview OneOneO Apartments - Nr. 1
Our stay was excellent! Already missing the view from the balcony! Would definitely stay again when in Malta :)

Apartment Vala 5*
Very comfortable little place, great interior design with local flare, fantastic location as far as feeling part of the waterfront social scene. Sunsets were beatuiful, parking is a quick 2 minute walk from the apartment (free in the winter). Finding out that the location had some historical significance to location was a bonus.

Fantastic view seaside apartment
We would highly recommend Sanja’s place. It is a great landing base to explore North Montenegro. A few minutes drive to the ferry port which gives you access to Herceg Novi and very near to the Croatian border. The apartment is about a 25 minute walk to Porto Montenegro, such a beautiful area to explore.

Stunning Apartment in the Port of Nice.
Hayley is a very welcoming host with great local knowledge. Very responsive to messages. The location of the apartment is great, close to the harbour and the tram station. There are several shopping facilities within a few metres of the apartment.

CAP FERRET CANON VACATION RENTAL
All right, a downside for the Saturday night party (end of February) with the neighbors outside the residence, adjoining the outdoor terrace. Too much noise to sleep in.

UNIQUE Secluded House on the sea
Me and my 70year old mum had a great week at Markos house. The way is directly by the sea and you have to step over some rocks and might get wet if it's too windy.Also there are many stairs if you want to go to the store so you gotta be quite fit. Just be prepared for an adventure. If you're there, its beautiful! If it's not too windy you can easily swim directly in front of the house,the water is clear and you can watch the stars at night and listen to only the waves and nature,really peaceful. I've stayed at many airbnbs before and met many nice hosts but I have to say Marko was just perfect.He picked us up at the airport by car and got us and our luggage to the house by boat.Went grocery shopping for us 2 times.Picked us up at the middle of the beach and got us home when we got lost on our way back on our first evening.Always easy to reach.Always really nice.He really did everything to make it as beautiful as possible for us.Thank you so much, Marko! It was a great experience! :)

Waterfront house in the heart of Marsa
We had a wonderful weekend. Ramla was very welcoming and made everything available to us very quickly. The accommodation is perfect, everything is impeccable, the decor, the Tunisian style❤️, the amenities, everything is there. Access to the sea directly from the terrace gives the impression of a private beach. Easy parking right next to the accommodation. Finally we loved this weekend and will come back for sure.

Apartment on the waterfront
Very nice, clean place in the quiet village of Betina, everything worked out fine with the landlord, requests were handled immediately. Of course, at this time (November) there are not so many offers from restaurants, etc., but in Murter there are also very good restaurants at this time, and they are just a few minutes away. Anyway, great! Gerhard

Charming Beach house
Loved our stay, great view of the ocean!

Riverfront pink house
Fantastic stay! Cleaning of the house is impeccable, all super organized and well-maintained. The decor is very beautiful, welcoming and full of good taste. The location is excellent, in a quiet area and with a park right in front, great for walks and children. The jacuzzi is amazing and perfect for relaxing. The air-conditioning in all divisions is a bonus. The house has everything it needs, from kitchen utensils to towels and other essentials. Care is noted in making the stay practical and comfortable. Sandra was super friendly. We liked it so much that we stayed another day! Without a doubt, a perfect space to relax and enjoy. I recommend it 100% and we will return in the future.

Seastar Eco Villa
IT was great vacation in this place! Highly recommended

Waterfront stone house -off the grid escape-
If you want a total change of scenery, in a fully renovated fisherman's house, at the bottom of a small cove, Romano's house is for you. We spent the 3rd week of October there with great pleasure. While most restaurants are indeed closed, and the days end around 6:30 p.m., the absence of tourists, the good weather and a water temperature around 20°C were decisive assets.

OceanParc Apt – Sea View and 24H Security Park
We had a lovely time in this functional and clean apartment. All the instructions were very clear.

Seaside Apartment, Lungomare
The quality of this place is unmatched, especially for Albania. Felt like luxury housing, staying in a one bedroom so close to the beach. Right above a market, around the corner from the promenade and all its restaurants and shops. Beach is a short walk as well, maybe five minutes. Truly lovely to stay here. Host responds to questions quickly, and is super friendly. Only thing I’ll say is I found myself waking up when the bedroom AC kicked on in the middle of the night, and is very strong overall, so if you’re a light sleeper/sensitive to cold, I would suggest sticking to only the main AC. Would love to go back, had a great time.

Zattere luxury large apart with fabulous views
Gorgio is, without a doubt, the best Airbnb host that I have ever met. He told us on the first day that his only priority was that we enjoy Venice, and he truly followed through on that. He offered countless suggestions and answered all of our questions. His apartment is amazing - it's enormous, well-decorated, and has every amenity you could want. He stocked the refrigerator for us with several items, which was nice to have upon arrival. It's located in a beautiful section of Venice that's a bit quieter than the areas near the Piazza San Marco, but everything is still walkable from the apartment. I highly recommend staying at Giorgio's apartment during your time in Venice.

Beachfront - sea and sunset views
I wish I could give 10 stars! This place is beyond amazing. The view is unbelievable and the whole apartment is gorgeous. They have everything you can think of and more. Paula met us and was helpful and sweet. I recommend paying for the private parking spot in the garage. It was very convenient. Can’t wait to return!

apartment with a sea view
Giorgio is a very friendly and responsive host. The apartment is clean and tidy and has air conditioning. The beach and city center are within walking distance and there is free parking 15 minutes from the apartment. The place is quiet and close to the coast. Giorgio was always available when needed and lives right in the apartment next door. We recommend this airbnb!

Lake front: lovely 1 bedroom apt w/pool in condo
"Exceptional Host and Accommodation! We had an amazing stay at andran’s place! The apartment was clean, cozy, and perfectly located. Andrean was an outstanding host who went above and beyond to make our stay short at Como comfortable and enjoyable. The communication was seamless, and Andrean was always responsive to our needs. The check-in and check-out process was smooth. We highly recommend Andrean’s place to anyone looking for a wonderful Airbnb experience in a quite place and beautiful view at San Siro, Como. Thank you, Andrean for being such a fantastic host! Rating: 5/5 stars

Senglea House - Apartment 4 - Penthouse
This is one the best Airbnb’s we have stayed in. It’s so well located. Across the road from a selection of good restaurants (some much better than others! We liked Novita). A five minute walk to water taxis and ferries to Valleta. Convenience stores two minutes walk from the apartment. Amazing view!!!!!! It was nice for two couples as one could take the upstairs area and the other downstairs. We neither found the lift quirky or inconsistent during our stay. It was super duper helpful and also great that the keys enabled you to bypass floor 3 and go straight to the top floor. The shared laundry and dryer room was a real treat too. Sophie was AMAZING to deal with and very generous. Don’t have a bad word to say about this place. Loved Malta and this area was perfect for us.

Luxury Suite, Sea View | City Center| Wi-Fi 1GBs
Was well satisfied with the stay. We look forward visiting again in the future. Only drawback is car parking. The streets of Durres are always full, so is quite a task to find a parking spot.
