Apartment by the sea w/jetty

FlorianRating, 5 stars7 months ago
I am completely thrilled and still a little wistful to have to leave the accommodation again. Wenche is an incredibly friendly hostess. I immediately felt very welcome. The place is a dream and I hope to visit it more often in the future. There really is nothing to complain about, an all-round perfect experience! ☺️

Cozy Sørland house close to the city center

EugenRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Martin and Kaja answered my questions before I wanted to ask them. The location of the house is wonderful, it is secluded and quiet and yet close to the center. You can explore the surrounding area on foot and for more activities you can drive by car. There is also a bus stop, the water can be reached within 60 seconds, the neighbors are friendly. We felt at home right from the start. You can also see that something is constantly being done at the house, so according to my forecast, the house can never get into a run-down condition. I am very happy with our stay and give 5 stars in all categories ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Luxury house "Berg" with outdoor sauna and hot tub

CharlotteRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We had a really good stay at Karin and René's coziest cabin in Øvre Ramse. The most relaxing cabin, overlooking the most beautiful lake and in beautiful nature far from city life. The impressive mountain and the waterfall that you could hear at the house is so beautiful. There are beautiful and good hiking routes close by or a little drive from the cabin, we had a 3 year old on a trip. Their Youtube videos are easy to follow.

Nice house by the sea, in the middle of the wood.

NiklasRating, 5 stars14 months ago
Great Place to stay. We stayed during February and really enjoyed the nature and the calm area with a warm chimney. You have the Forrest right in front of the house which was great for the dog. The garden has a complete fence allowing to let the dog out. You definitely need a car to go there but supermarkets are close by. The hosts are super fast in responding and helped when there was any question.
A vintage white house sits on a rocky shoreline at sunset, with warm light reflecting off the calm water. A smaller structure is visible nearby, along with two boats anchored gently in the water. Tall trees line the background, offering a serene natural setting.

Losodden, idyllic skipper's house on the waterfront.

JanRating, 5 stars35 months ago
With more than 10 years of Airbnb experience, this was one of our best places to stay. Mads was helpfull with everything and the smallest problem was solved immediatly although he was far away. The island and especially the nature near the house is as beautiful as the people who live there. And at the end of the day, when you enjoy your glass of wine in the sun, reflecting on the water, the seals are passing by ... need more?

Cozy apartment by the sea - central

MareikeRating, 5 stars8 months ago
We absolutely loved our stay at Marion’s! Wished we could have stayed a few days longer. The place is private and quiet, with some nice outdoor spaces, and easy walking distance to the harbour, shopping mall, high street, view point etc. We especially loved the swimming spot (Bitte’s Trapp), and the view point during the golden hour. Marion is such a lovely person, pleased we got to meet her and have a little chat - thank you, Marion! Hopefully, we’ll make it back again one day! :)

By the lake, near Skottevik, 20min from Zoo

JoepRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Camilla's accommodation was very pleasing. The apartment is cozy but contains all the basic means to stay: good double bed, good bathroom and basic kitchen. The location is fantastic. It is very secluded, on the coast, wonderfully quiet in nature with Kristiansand and Lillesand half an hour away. Camilla all has information and helpful tips to do activities and is very friendly. Also, it is very convenient as the first or last stop of your tour in combination with the boat to Denmark.
