This is by far the best place we have stayed through AirbnB! Amazing home, stunning view and the warmest people at the restaurant and shop down the street! The host was great at communicating throughout our experience and made our stay very special! If I could give 10 stars I would!

Laura, USA, Juni 2026

Stunningly renovated airbnb, with superb surroundings and beautiful inside and lots of attention to detail from the decorations, to amenities or the fully stocked kitchen. The location is also perfect for day trips in many of the best known mountain resorts of Switzerland, woth lots of winter sports, hiking or biking potential. Perfect for larger families or groups of friends.

Absolute Empfehlung. Das Haus liegt direkt am See, lässt hinsichtlich der Lage und Einrichtung keine Wünsche offen, hier ist wirklich an alles gedacht. Uns wird der Urlaub positiv im Gedächtnis bleiben und wir werden wiederkommen. Die Woche ging viel zu schnell vorbei. Das war mit ziemlicher Sicherheit die schönste Unterkunft, die ich bisher über Airbnb gebucht habe!

Alexander, DE, Mai 2026

Jos is a great host and we had a wonderful stay at his apartment! The place is peaceful, clean, and equipped with everything you need — from a well-stocked kitchen to laundry facilities. The apartment also has a gym, which made our stay even more comfortable. The view from the apartment is absolutely beautiful, with a serene lake right in front. Jos was also very friendly, responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommended! We’ll also definitely be back there when we’re back in Switzerland!

Ich bin seit 12 Jahren auf Airbnb. Dies ist zweifellos das beste Airbnb, in dem wir je waren. Jedes Detail wurde von Jos gut durchdacht. Das Haus ist atemberaubend und die Lage wird Ihnen den Atem rauben. Wunderbare, gut markierte Wanderungen rund um den See. Wir hatten kein Auto, brauchten aber keins. Der Bahnhof ist fünf Gehminuten entfernt und kann Sie von einer schönen Stadt zur nächsten bringen.

Abbey, USA, Mai 2025

I had a wonderful stay at Mr. Jos’s place! The home was exactly as described, clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The location was great, and Mr. Jos was very responsive and helpful throughout my stay. I really appreciated the warm hospitality and thoughtful touches that made me feel at home. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area!

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit in diesem Haus voller Geschichte. Das Haus wurde mit sehr viel Liebe restauriert. Es sieht noch besser aus als auf den Fotos, alles war makellos sauber und ein toller Startpunkt für viele Unternehmungen, der Bahnhof ist in 5 Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar. Die Tips von Jos waren zudem äußerst hilfreich. Wir sind immer noch sehr begeistert von diesem schönen Haus mit Garten und See vor der Türe. Einfach unglaublich wunderbar. Wir werden zurückkommen. Besonders toll fanden wir auch, dass Jos wirklich an alles gedacht hat und man spürte die Liebe die in jedem Details dieser Unterkunft. Es hat nichts gefehlt. Vom Wasserkocher, Ofen, bis zur Spülmaschine und den vielen Handtüchern und den Schubladen, alles war sehr, sehr sauber. Auch die Recyclingbox ist eine tolle Idee. Danke Jos! Das war großartig für uns!

Beautiful accommodation in a beautiful location. It had everything we needed for a home-from-home stay. Transport links were fantastic and the trains run like clockwork. Kaiserstuhl restaurant on the corner of the road was warm and welcoming with great food and wine. Cannot recommend highly enough. Our Christmas stay was truly magical. Thank you Jos for your kind hospitality and helpful recommendations.

Karen, USA, Dezember 2025

This is the most beautiful AirBnb I’ve ever stayed at. The house was so cozy and furnished beautifully. Jos was a great host and was able to accomodate our requests. I would stay here again when visiting Switzerland and recommend to all.
