Cottage rentals with a hot tub

Hoogwater Cottage
A beautifully peaceful spot to stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our walks on the farm, and stargazing from the hot tub. The accommodation was clean and cozy. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the bathroom was neat with a large shower.

Stellenbosch Farm Cottage with Mountain Views
This is a lovely cottage with a peaceful atmosphere and fantastic mountain views. There were a couple of snags during our stay, but the hosts were quick to respond to any needs

Las Lagunas country house in Tunte
Elena’s place was well provisioned and a home away from home. The outside patio was spectacular with lounges, chairs, tables, hot tub, and even a ping pong table! The one challenge was the windy roads getting there. Extraordinary scenery, but keep your eye on the road! Great home base for rock climbing at Fataga and Sorrueda.

Tropical Lovers - Levada & Bananas cliff
We absolutely loved our stay here! Absolutely beautiful location and it was quiet and peaceful. It was a great place to come relax mid-day between adventures, and we loved using the jacuzzi at the end of the day after hiking and exploring Madeira! Gomes also gave great recommendations and we really enjoyed some of his restaurant recommendations and a local poncha bar. If we ever come back we would definitely stay here again!

Dreamy house perfect for a romantic Getaway
This is a fantastic place to stay. The house is immaculate.! In a beautiful setting. Very quiet and peaceful. The jacuzzi is a great added bonus!! Very highly recommended. Absolutely would go back again.!!!!! Gabriella is right there replying to any needs straight away.

Authentic Ein Kerem
The place is located in a wonderful area in Ein Kerem and allows an excellent view of the forest The restaurants nearby are very tasty and pleasant The hosting was very magical from the entrance to the candles by the Jacuzzi Me and my daughter remembered we got married that day and I asked Ange to come early from the check-in time and she agreed without any problem Had a lovely and cozy stay Highly recommended for nature lovers and a pleasant and pastoral vacation!

Cosy stone house with mountain view in Olympos
Very quiet and remote stone house. It’s a plot with three houses but it is still very private. Lovely view of the mountains and scenery from the back porch and from the jacuzzi. You will need use taxis or have your own transport to get there - there are no public transport options. It’s a lovely place for a couple to get away from it all and relax. Stock up on some shopping on your way there. Olimpos beach and the ruins are ten minutes away by taxi.

Cottage Pearl-Rural Holiday Experience by SeaPearl
Everything was exactly as described and in the photos. Requests were responded to immediately. The place was very clean. The bed could be a little higher quality (if I turned around the whole bed wobbled and my wife was awake). Otherwise everything was great.

Harmony Hill House, with unique view and a pool!
The place was really clean and spacious, and with beautiful views. Dimitra was a very responsive and friendly host. Planning to come back next year!

Little Paradise
Peaceful haven, green setting, with superb sea views, the islands of Elafonisos and Cythera. Ideal to unwind. The small town of Neapoli, after several turns on a good road, offers the necessary (food stores, cafes, taverns, etc.). Kimo's advice was excellent and the visits from the property's kitten were full of affection.

Your Romantic, Pet friendly, Private getaway!
Amazing view, worth a visit

Zaros! Cozy stoudio with pool!Incl.Breakfast+Taxes
We had a fantastic two nights stay at Vivi's who is a ever so positive and proactive host together with her lovely husband. She so much took care of our needs and "fed us like her children" :) The apartment is quietly situated and is a gem to all lovers of cats and dogs.

Pear Tree Cottage garden, pond and mountain view
Had one of the best experiences staying at the lovely cottage. Robert and George’s place is a wonder to behold and spend time in. Peaceful, soothing and charming environment to reconnect with what’s really important in life; the present moment, nature and loved ones. Cannot wait to come back, share the experience with others and enjoy more great conversations with Robert about the beautiful property, his cuddly four paw friends, his amazing fruits and mushrooms✨

Tabobo Cottage
Montse was very kind and welcoming. He gave us excellent advice on places to visit, suggesting above all less touristy places. In a week, we leisurely explored a good part of the island. The house, essential but well-equipped, is in a quiet location 1 km from Tinajo, a town with all the services. Thanks to its location, it is a good base for exploring the island. 20/40 minutes by car from the main attractions. We did not enjoy the courtyard because the weather was not sunny during our stay, but on the other hand we practiced yoga in the yurt with the guidance of Montse who is a very good teacher, even for beginners. Very pleasant stay, highly recommended.

Country house in Anaga
We loved our stay here in Los Carbonaras. The house was beautiful, functional, and had everything we needed. The only note for other people is to know the walls in the bedrooms don't go all the way up so you can hear each others (watch out for snores!). But it absolutely did not detract from the experience. We had a lot of fun cooking in the kitchen and enjoying the ourside terrace. The views from the place are stunning and it is a great location to explore the area by foot. The property is part of a small farm and Yanira's mother was an attentive neighbor who let us have some of their fresh grown spinach. They also left us some fresh eggs and fruit in the house. We really enjoyed the walks between the villages, which we mostly did on the road since there were so few cars. Nature was right on the doorstep, with plenty of birds, butterflies and plants to satisfy us nature nerds. We would absolutely come back in a heartbeat.

River Cottage No.1 Akosombo, ER (1 of 3 cottages)
This was my second time staying here and I'm still in love with the place. The cottage is very cute and clean. The surroundings are kept up well and the staff is very friendly. An absolute gem to visit very serene and the view of the volta is stunning. Hope to be back soon!

Tandala Cottage
We had a wonderful stay at Frankie’s cottage—such a peaceful and special place surrounded by nature. The garden is beautiful and well cared for, and the house has everything you need for a relaxing break. On our drive in at night, we were lucky enough to spot bat-eared foxes, which was such a magical surprise! We also had some car trouble, and Frankie recommended a reliable mechanic. Thanks to her help, we were able to get everything sorted and make it back to Nairobi without a problem. Frankie is a fabulous host—warm, thoughtful, and always ready to help. We’d love to come back!

La Jara Rural House
Unbelievable place, in beautiful surroundings . It’s true the road to it can be difficult at first but is certainly worth it and no problem when you get used to driving the roads of Tenerife mountains

Cozy mountain view home with pool Olympos &Adrasan
it was a cozy, modern and harmoniously furnished sweet home surrounded by nature.

Swerwersrus Farm Stay - Plaasstoep
Ohhh what a lovely stay! 😍 👌 If you're looking to get away from all the noise, to pause, take a breather while watching a beautiful sunset and sunrise, then its the most perfect place you can find. Jan is also so friendly and responds within seconds, making all communication so easy and putting your mind at ease. I would absolutely do it again. And AGAIN.... AND AGAIN! 😃 😊

Tranquil Cottage Hideway
We enjoyed family time, had a good night sleep and made a new friend, Rockey! Will definitely mark this place as a yearly family retreat.

House in a natural paradise. Comfort/tranquility
We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful house. There is so much quiteness, sun and space to rest. Wonderful.

Villa San Pietro - walking distance to everything!
Best honeymoon place in Platanias ❤️ We thought the accommodation was perfect. A peaceful retreat in an excellent location. Shops, the beach, and great restaurants were all within walking distance. Despite this, the place offered complete privacy. A nearby restaurant also delivered food directly to the property upon request. The terrace area with the pool and barbecue was excellent. The kitchen, living room, and bedroom were beautifully decorated, and the bed in the bedroom was very comfortable to sleep in. Both the living room and bedroom had air conditioning. The accommodation also offered books to read as well as some board and card games. The owners were very easy to reach if needed. I absolutely recommend this place to everyone, and I hope to return again soon myself.

Sueña Rural-LA NUBE in Los Realejos
A beautiful, cozy and unique home located above the clouds 🌺 Victoria is a lovely person and host. We enjoyed cooking outside and laying by the pool — the views are so special. It’s very worth the drive up the mountain to get to. Thank you so much Victoria. We would love to return!
