Island vacation rentals in Northern Europe

Thank you for a lovely stay! Absolutely magical out here on the island - and away from all the noise after festival and people everyday🦋🌟 Wilhelm met us and instructed well. The small boat ride across the strait was an experience in itself everyday. We will be back🌟

It was a wonderful and very peaceful place!

Even before check-in, caring and caring messages. Our host received us when we arrived. Visit and introduction with her. Quiet, bedding at the top brief than happiness. We will come back as soon as we are in Lyon of course. Thank you so much Bénédicte.

Nice host and beautiful surroundings through the interaction between human animals and nature ! Nicely arranged without electricity and water!

Very good stay at Aline's in an incredible setting that is the island of Malvy! So much that we almost forgot to leave... Thank you very much to Aline for her help and kindness. Our son loved cycling and going to see the chickens at the back of the garden. Once again, thank you for everything!

What a gorgeous location overlooking the ocean. Beautiful landscaping that Jose has developed over the years. He upgraded us to the larger house with an even more idyllic view of the ocean. The constant sound of the waves was extremely relaxing. Comfortable house with comfortable beds and bedding. Everything you need in the kitchen. AC/Heating units in every room with modes to cool, dry, heat. We used the heating and dry modes as it was mid Dec and the proximity to the ocean can get a bit damp. Worked like a charm! House cleaning mid week was a nice perk. Jose was very nice and helpful with local recommendations. The small village in walking distance has a market for groceries and a small restaurant. Be sure to rent a small car for the narrow winding roads and narrow entrance to the steep driveway. We look forward to coming again and enjoying the lovely pool next time! Breathtakingly beautiful vistas on walking trail nearby. We also caught a view of Santa Maria island on a few days.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Otter Bunkhouse as a family of four (with teenage kids). The signs make it easy to find, but the location is secluded and peaceful. As expected, the weather gave us four seasons in one day and the bunkhouse was a cosy place to hunker down and watch the constantly evolving view from the three large windows and comfy chairs. It was a real privilege to share such an incredible spot and watch wildlife come by - otters, seals, squadrons of gannets diving for fish, curlews, eagles, and an array of other birds were infinitely more entertaining than anything a TV has to offer, and all four of us were transfixed. Bring your binoculars! Swimming in the lock was magic. Donald was incredibly kind, and when our ferry was cancelled because of the storms, we were grateful to be able to extend our stay (luckily the storms also prevent new arrivals - phew!) Brilliant base to explore Lewis and Harris which is an unforgettable experience!

Wow! We could not have picked a better place to stay for our 2 night trip to Venice. This little house was perfect for a family of 5 including two teenagers. Michela has thought of absolutely everything you need, there are comfortable beds, lots of space and the house is spotless. There are even clear instructions left to find your way into Venice (which only took about 30 minutes by bus and was so easy to find). But above all Michela is just the kindest and loveliest lady who went out of her way to make our stay extra special by putting up a birthday banner and balloons for my daughter. This was so thoughtful. Thank you SO much Michela! We absolutely loved our stay at your house and would highly recommend.

Lovely place with an amazing view and a nice secluded beach. Dimitris is a very friendly host and was always there if we needed help. The bungalow is well equipped - 100% would recommend and come back 😊

We had a wonderful holiday season at Larissa's island vacation home. Our 3 families felt right at home in this large, very personal house in the southern archipelago of Finland, from the shot and yet quite close to Kotka and Helsinki. From the airport it is only an hour to the jetty and from there you will soon be on the island. The cottage is wonderfully located on the southern tip of the island. There is plenty of space to linger inside (4 separate bedrooms are really exceptional) and outside, sun and wind all day. This is how the weeks are (too) fast. The kitchen is very well equipped. Even with a large chalkboard, everything is not a test, again both indoors and outdoors. The new sauna gets warm quickly. It offers a beautiful view to the sea. Larissa is a great host and so we had very nice days. I fully recommend Villa Vonkka, assuming some experience in island life.

Staying in Alexander's house was a real experience. It was wonderful to enjoy the peace, the view, the swimming, kayaking, paddle boarding and the boat trip to the island. Alexander gave us the good tip to watch the sunset, worth it! As the icing on the cake, we also saw the northern lights. The accommodation was spacious, cozy and very homely. In short, we would have liked to stay longer.

Beautiful location with great views from the house and sauna.

My mum and me discovered this accommodation by chance, not knowing how to get there or what to expect. We found a wonderful simple place where we felt very comfortable. We took advantage of the sauna every day and were able to see the Northern Lights every evening, even a corona Northern Lights directly above the accommodation. It was amazing to see and of course contributed greatly to the fact that we loved the accommodation. It is simple, but has its charme. We rented a car and I would recommend it to others. Marta and Pawel are lovely hosts and always up for a chat.

Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Bozcaada. Murat and Nesrin are so kind and eager to offer local recommendations or friendly company. The view is incredible and all the amenities are as described. And it is extremely clean! We really enjoyed our time here and would absolutely stay again.

Alessia, Paulo and family were AMAZING!!! Their beautiful spirits and lovely recommendations were wonderful!!! They are the most welcoming hosts and the breakfasts are spectacular!!! The accommodations are lovely and we look forward to spending time with them again!!! Highly recommend!!! Thank you so much!!!

Can only recommend booking this place. It exceeds in every way — amazing cozy accommodation, wonderful environment, and very friendly hosts. We would be glad to come back!

We had a wonderful time on the island! Hot sauna and a cold swim every morning. We brought our paddle boards with and were glad to have them -- a great place for it! Enjoyed watching all the birds. Very vibrant bird species and the entire island is covered in a rainbow of flowers. Cabin has everything you need -- deck spaces are great, a perfect spot no matter the weather or wind direction. Thanks for sharing your magical space with us!

An absolute dream! The accommodation offers numerous beautiful opportunities to relax in the outdoor area. The location right on the small beach is ideal and completes the entire experience. Everything is furnished with a lot of love for detail, which creates a particularly cozy atmosphere. High praise also to Marija, the care was fantastic! She was always available and available to help us. We would definitely love to come back – she created something very special there!

Lydia’s home is the perfect escape for those wanting solitude and respite. Lydia is kind and responsive and the home has everything you need for a comfortable, relaxing stay. Particularly enjoyed the variety of outdoor areas around the home. We loved every moment and cannot wait to get back. Highly recommend!

We were a group of 5 adults and an 18-month old and the accommodation was perfect. Plenty of space and everything that was needed for the 18-month old was provided. Great location, within easy reach of Oslo. Lars and Malin were very fast to respond to any queries. Would highly recommend!

Our stay at Villa Azurella was beautiful! The beach access to the almost private sea was great, the outdoor shower was the hit and in great weather you don't actually have to leave the accommodation at all. If you're in the mood for a quiet beach holiday, this is the place to be. But everything important was still easily and quickly accessible. Thank you for everything, we had a great time!

If you’re considering staying on this little island, don’t hesitate—just book it! Our experience was absolutely wonderful and far exceeded our expectations. Waking up each morning to the sound of cicadas, walking through the olive trees, and stepping straight into the sea was pure magic—utter tranquility. From check-in to check-out, Visnja and Magdalena were incredibly helpful and responsive, making everything seamless. The little house itself is beautifully designed, with every detail thoughtfully considered with very cute interior. We spent our days snorkeling in the clear water and our evenings grilling and dining. The outdoor sofa seating area was perfect for watching sunsets, and the outdoor shower was an absolute dream. Thank you for a truly unforgettable experience.

Photos don’t do this beautiful cottage justice! It was so welcoming, comfortable and just such a gorgeous home. Really good energy. No issues finding the accommodation, even arriving in the dark. Instructions were clear and it felt very easy after a long day of travel. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to call home for a few nights. Made our trip so special and memorable. Especially with the view each morning with clear skies and sunny weather post storm. Margaret was so kind to my partner and I. Such a wonderful host and has put so much love into this house and place that her family have connections to. We really appreciated the scones and cupcakes too on our arrival. Nayri nina-tu - thank you It really was the most perfect place to stay part of my birthday trip and after a really hard last few months with grief and loss. Can’t wait to come back again one day and spend more time on Skye - truly a magical place.

A little slice of heaven, with a breathtaking sunset, the beautiful sea of linosa within walking distance. A great efficient welcome, the house is comfortable and functional , unfortunately our stays were too short, we will definitely be back.
