Staubbach Waterfall Apartment with Hot Tub

ReaganRating, 5 stars1 week ago
10/10 - We stayed in over 10 different apartments on our travels across Europe and this was the BEST! The hosts were so warm and friendly. They made us feel so welcomed and at home. Not to mention, the place itself is even more magnificent than the photos. It is a stunning view from both the porch and the hot tub. I'm telling you - I'd book this place 100 times again. It was exactly what we wanted after a long day of hiking and taking in the beauty of Switzerland. We will be back and will recommend this place to our friends too.

True Basel: City apartment | Riverside terrace

JerilynRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Can't say enough great things about Akman's two apartments I stayed in during my visit!! The views of the Rhein were so beautiful. Beyond that, the apartments were both fabulous - the kitchens fully stocked, wonderful Nespresso machines in both with a full complement of espresso capsules. Everything worked great, the beds were all comfy, and the apartment living space was large for one or two people. The building is very secure, check-in was easy, and Akman was gracious and extremely responsive. This is the first owner I will check with upon my future return!!

Chalet Max Gimmelwald

DarrenRating, 5 stars5 days ago
9.5/10 Review for Max Chalet Gimmelwald Max Chalet was perfect for our family of three—a fantastic base for a mountain getaway! Surroundings: Gimmelwald is stunning, with hiking right outside the door. We loved the Northface Trail and the easy gondola access to Mürren, Schilthorn, and the valley. Parking at Stechelberg was only $10/day. Entertainment: Hiking was our main activity—beautiful trails and mountain huts. Pension Gimmelwald and Mountain Hostel next door offer meals, drinks, and great pizza (8.5/10). Food: Dining options nearby, more in Mürren, and a grocery store for essentials to cook at Max. The House: Spacious, cozy, clean, with big windows framing epic views. Well-equipped kitchen, laundry room, and a great patio. Quiet at night (bring a fan for white noise). Floors creak but didn’t bother us. Host: Marianne was super responsive and helpful. Summary: We’d absolutely stay again—9.5/10! (We’ve never given a 10, so this is top marks from us!)

SimoneRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our stay at the cabin was absolutely amazing for us family of 4. The setting is peaceful and private, with stunning views that made it feel like a true escape. The cabin itself was spotless and cosy and solidly built. We especially enjoyed peace and quiet and lying on the sofa looking across at the big mountains on the over side of the valley. This hut is well equipped with good quality cooking facities, equipment and knives, and we appreciate the soldar handsoap and the washing up liquid. The host was responsive and made everything easy from start to finish. It’s close to great hiking spots and a nearby town with a shop, yet still feels secluded. We left feeling refreshed and restored and can’t wait to come back. Highly recommend this gem in the mountains.

Panoramic APT in the vineyard & breathtaking view

GregRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Queein's place is in the center of the Lavaux historic wine country - and the wine is quite good. It's a spectacular setting that is glorious regardless of the weather. There are many easy walks among the historic vineyards on pedestrian pathways to either round-trip or return via a bus or train. Most walks we took on our extended stay averaged about five miles. The Moutarlier patisserie in Chexbres is a must daily stop for the best pastries, sandwiches and coffee and is only a ten minute walk away. Even closer is a local grocery store called the COOP where you can get whatever you need if you choose to eat at Queein's place. If you are looking for an elbow-to-elbow crowded vacation getaway, this is NOT the place for you. If you want a serene, peaceful and beautiful location to shift into a lower gear, you can't pick a better place!

Countryside apartment with amazing mountain views

주환Rating, 5 stars4 days ago
I went with my parents and the three of us were really satisfied. 😊 I used the whole floor, so the room was large and the village was so peaceful. And my parents were really satisfied with the view of the Jungfrau summit while lying on the bed. I went in early June, but it wasn't hot at all, and when I opened the window, the wind came in so well that I didn't need a fan. I'll leave you some information that might help you before you choose a listing. There is no coop in the village, but there is a larger grocery store than the Seoyeok coop. Instead, it closes quickly. They provide towels and change them to new ones if you ask. European-style fan? There is one in each room No air conditioner. It's cool enough to not need one. There are all kinds of cooking utensils and tableware. There are seasonings such as salt and pepper As of June, I haven't seen a single mosquito. Maybe because there's a place to raise nearby, flies come in once a day. The smell doesn't come into the house. There are no bugs in the accommodation The sound of the cow bell spreads softly around the house, making it beautiful. Shampoo, body wash, all available, bathtub also available There's no toothpaste, so buy it. Washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, hair dryer I don't know if it's the European way of living with shoes on, but my feet got dirty quickly because I walked barefoot. I recommend bringing something like disposable slippers from the plane. Heating is central heating. I put a heat line on the floor. It wasn't relevant to me because it was summer, but please take note. The house is neat, but it's an old building, so it squeaks when you walk. I don't know if it was a guest or the owner on the 3rd floor, but I heard someone coming. It's not too annoying. Well... I guess this is enough!? Koreans usually stay in Interlaken or Grindelwald. The small town of Buildersville in the middle is also a good choice! It wasn't crowded and was peaceful, so I was happy all 9 days. I recommend it 😁

We had a beautiful stay at the house, it’s very quiet, has a wonderful setting and is well equipped. Stuart was very responsive and forthcoming. You do need a car for getting around for shopping and visiting nearby attractions, and the traffic can get dense during rushhour. This house is highly recommended if you want to spend some beautiful days at and on the lake Geneva.

Vintage style in the countryside, close to the city

GabrielleRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We loved the place ! We used it as our base to explore Switzerland with a eurail train pass, did day trips to Zurich, Basel, Geneva, Lauterbrunnen, Thun, Interlaken and Bern. Walkable distance from the train station, also a beautiful walk in a pretty village circled by mountains. The place was squeaky clean and had everything we needed. Very friendly host, was responsive and gave clear instructions. We even had a binder explaining how to use the ameneties and with local recommandations. Would go back if I was to travel to Switzerland again !

SarahRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Absolutely fantastic stay. A little away from the busier, tourist areas so was nice to enjoy the peaceful neighbourhood. Saying that it is only a 15 minute walk to the main train station. Had everything we needed for a lovely week in Interlaken. Gabrielle was fantastic at communicating beforehand so we knew what to expect and how to get in as we had a late evening arrival. Would love to stay there again should we return to Interlaken. The place was nicely decorated and spacious. Facilities were perfect for a couple.

We had a wonderful stay at this place! The place is very nice and well equipped, so nothing is missing. We were particularly impressed by the quiet location, which offers a perfect retreat. The view of the lake is simply fantastic and provides a relaxed atmosphere. The first coffee in the morning is such a special experience.

In addition, the brochures provided with activities were a great addition to explore the surroundings and make the most of the stay. We can definitely recommend this place.

House with a great view in the countryside

DavidRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This rental is a gem and absolutely incredible in so many ways. It's a perfect location, being a ways from the road for quiet privacy, but very close to Interlaken and many hikes in the area. Seraina was immediately helpful, super friendly, and very communicative, making us feel welcome as if we were part of the neighborhood as soon as we arrived. Next time I come to the area I will skip the whole hotel process and come right here to check availability.

Your guide to Switzerland

Welcome to Switzerland

There’s a version of Switzerland many know from storybooks: soaring alps covered in pristine snow, picturesque villages nestled among green pastures dotted with wildflowers, and peaked castles reflected in expansive lakes. You can find that wonderland here — alongside hardy skiers, pots of warm fondue, and packets of sweet milk chocolate — but Switzerland has a thrillingly urbane side, too. Medieval and modern architecture mingle in chic metropolitan centers Zurich, Geneva, and Basel, which pulse with cutting-edge culture and nightlife. Ringed by Germany, France, and Italy, Switzerland exudes a truly international culture, and ritzy après-ski scenes and opulent lakeside resort towns rival any European locale for sheer luxury. Yet it remains tough to compete with the natural allure of the country, whose landscape boasts glaciers, mighty rivers, more than 1,000 lakes, and pastoral plateaus.


The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Switzerland

Deciding when to go to Switzerland depends on how you want to optimize your trip. Spring is verdant and summer is warm and sunny. Temperatures are cool in the fall during harvest season, and in winter it’s brisk and snow falls in the mountains. Winter, of course, is the ideal time for snow sports and coziness. The country doesn’t experience extreme weather, and a suitcase packed with layers will see you through most seasons. Switzerland is host to world-class events year round, including the Ski World Cup in Wengen in January; the Lucerne Festival, a massive celebration of classical music that takes place in Lucerne every August and September; and the legendary Art Basel, which alights in the eponymous city in September, showcasing thousands of artworks from around the world.


Top things to do in Switzerland

Zurich

Cosmopolitan Zurich is Switzerland’s largest and perhaps most fascinating city. Renowned for its hip atmosphere, it’s also an eminently liveable place with a free bike-sharing program. Spend your days among the significant art collections of the Kunsthaus and the Rietberg museums and your nights at Zürich-West, a former industrial hub reimagined as a nexus of nightlife and culture.

Schloss Chillon

A trip to stunning Lake Geneva isn’t complete without a visit to this elegant fortress. Get a sense of Switzerland’s medieval past at this 25-building castle from which royals once gazed down upon their kingdom. Guided tours will take you past 14th-century wall paintings and into subterranean chambers. Nighttime events allow visitors to explore the compound until midnight.

Take a train trip

One of the prettiest and most relaxing ways to cover a lot of ground in Switzerland is by rail. Hop aboard the Glacier Express to swoosh through wintry Alpine landscapes featuring staggering peaks and glacial lakes. The Bernina Express threads through varied landscapes and picturesque towns and features open-air cars in the summer.
