Monthly Rentals in Gmina Białowieża

everything was great, nice place to be close to nature and relax

Wonderful Podlasie, close to the Forest, peace and quiet. Beautifully decorated, large rooms with bathrooms. Very well-equipped and functional kitchen. A great base from which to enjoy the charms of Podlasie.

I had a very pleasant stay at Damian's. The apartment is modern and bright yet still comfortable and cosy. There are some lovely paintings on the walls and a nice balcony that looks out onto the street. Have coffee in the long spacious garden. Damian and his brother Mateusz were communicative and helpful with respect to questions for example where to source groceries during what is/was an unusual time in Białowieża ('stan wyjatkowy'). The home is centrally located in the village and walking/biking are the best ways to get around. The national park is a five minute bike ride away; the museum (with audio tour) is well worth it. Nearby the house are two small grocery stores, Pod Sarenka (try the cydr Podlaski) and Promyk (delicious rye bread/chleb żytni). I am planning to return.

The apartment is situated in a compound: a quiet and green area in the woods, the terrace on the ground floor is nice.The general atmosphere is quiet and relaxed. In the compound there is also a hotel where you can eat or enjoy the wellness. The restaurant is a bit expensive by Polish standards. I would not particularly recommend the food, although the pizza's are really ok. But the wellness (pool & sauna) with playground is worth the prize of 100 Zloty/day. Bialowieza where you can enter the strict reserve is a nice 20 minutes drive through the woods. Marcin can help you to book a tour in the closed reserve. One practical issue: our arrival was difficult. We had problems getting 4G connection so the compound was hard to find and we didn't have access to the Airbnb app. The hotel reception doesn't really help people who booked an apartment and English is not common spoken. Marcin will adapt some info on the Airbnb side to make the arrival easier. Better download it up front.
