We had a wonderful week at Queein's. The apartment corresponds 100% to the photos. The view from the terrace is simply magnificent. We loved eating on the terrace or just having a coffee or wine. The location is also fantastic for exploring Lake Geneva. Montreux, Vevey and Lausanne are very close. We will definitely come back, dear Queein leave everything as it is, it is just perfect👌🏻.

Semi-detached villa near the baths - Villa B4

LeiraRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a wonderful stay at Dylan’s Airbnb in Saillon! From the very beginning, Dylan was incredibly attentive and accommodating to our special needs, ensuring that our family of four (toddler and a service dog included 🤣) felt comfortable and welcome. The home itself is beautiful, with stunning views of the mountains from both the terrace and balcony. The location is perfect—just a short distance from a picturesque waterfall and the relaxing hot springs. The town of Saillon is truly charming, with vineyards stretching in every direction and plenty of local cavas where you can enjoy delicious food and wine. The house has multiple stairs, so keep that in mind if mobility is a concern, but for us, it was a perfect retreat. The peaceful nights, breathtaking scenery, and Dylan’s warm hospitality made this a truly unforgettable family vacation. We highly recommend staying here and would love to return!

Casa Müsu, a charming rustic home in Val Verzasca

MorganRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
A very lovely home and Enrico is a consummate host. Pictures don’t do this cozy spot justice. We really enjoyed our time here. The old wood stove offers a delightful aroma that fills the whole place and the village feels like stepping back in time. Kitchen was exceptionally well stocked. Our host helped us test the wifi speed in advance for our remote work trip and graciously left us a bottle of wine. The stairs are steep and not kid-friendly. We found them a bit tricky and you do have to traverse them like ladders to use the toilet. While reading reviews, we noticed comments about black mould in the shower and do encourage the host to take care of this. It doesn’t appear to be anything that some bleach and elbow grease can’t fix and there is a window in the shower, so it is well ventilation. We also note that the mattress upstairs is nice and firm, but sags in the middle, which was fine for our length of stay. We enjoyed our time and hope to be back again soon!

We had a great time at this place. The space is really generous, with spacious, clean and well-appointed rooms, ideal for hosting a group of people. The location is also very convenient, there are parking spaces available right next door, which is a real asset, especially if you are by car. The host is super friendly and responsive, which made our stay even more enjoyable. I would 100% recommend!

The Lake View! Large house on Lake Lucerne

GeoffRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We read the previous reviews, saw the photos and chose Stephen’s house. Firstly the accommodation is a really good size. We had 4 adults using 3 b/rooms and there was plenty of space. It was really clean, tidy and we felt really at home. There was everything we needed, plus a supermarket round the corner and bar /restaurant were walking distance. 10/10👍The photos however don’t do justice to the wonderful views! Loved just looking over the lake to the snow capped mountains. Sitting outside was so tranquil. 10/10 because I can’t give 11/10 😁Excellent location for Rigi, Vitznau, Lucerne, Weggis, Stoos, Pilatus, Zug, all worth seeing. Rigi railway / Pilatus cable cars to the summit were our fave’s 10/10 🚠 We’d have stayed longer!🙁Stephen our host was great too. Excellent helpful information sent to us on arrival day. Were lucky enough to see him and got really helpful sightseeing advice. Communications were timely and helpful throughout our stay. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Updated Sunny Chalet in Andiast : Hiking & Skiing

GabrieleRating, 5 stars2 months ago
It was now our third ski trip that we spent with Claudius. Everything was fine again. We liked it very much again! We would come back any time and can recommend Claudius's place with a clear conscience. Claudius's house is also ideal for holidays outside the winter season. You are in the middle of a hiking and biking area or you can just enjoy the seclusion. GREAT THING!

Antique vacation home

ReginaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Although the old house is very simply furnished, it is extremely cozy and rustic there. We were received in a very friendly manner by Beatrice, she brought our luggage into the house and explained to us exactly how to fire up the hot pot. The house itself is large, spacious and very clean. If you like it authentic and cozy, it's great here :-)

Vintage apartment well located and equipped

Sandra is a great host, she is always responsive and very helpful. Apartment is very conveniently located near the train station and tram connection. There are restaurants and cafes in the proximity. Park La Grange is nearby in a walking distance. The apartment is very well equipped and has little welcoming details that we much appreciated. Apartment is on the 2nd floor of a historical building. It might be difficult to access for people with lower mobility as there is no elevator in the building.

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.
