Your apartment with one room for 2 people

MikitaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We stayed at Malonda’s place for 3 nights. She was a great host. We arrived there from Australia after a long long flight and she prepared vegetarian noodle pasta for us and prepared a welcome package on arrival. The place is small & cosy, good for a family of 2 or 3. The place is 10-15 mins away from the airport. The apartment is 2-3 levels below the ground/parking space and you need to use the steep stairs to get in the apartment. Something to consider if you have lots of luggage or having difficulty walking. Overall our stay was really good. Thank you Malonda.

Cozy and with a stunning view Apt.

EmilyRating, 5 stars1 week ago
It was everything we were hoping for and more. The chalet itself is is in a wonderful location, walking distance to the bus stop and train and it had absolutely gorgeous views from every single room. We slept and showered very comfortably and the kitchen was well stocked with what we needed too. To top it off, the host was the BEST host we have ever had with an airB &B. So incredibly friendly, helpful, and a joy to chat with. We definitely hope to be back one day!!

TrangRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Family of 4 (2 adults and 2 young kids between 4 & 5). We enjoyed our time and spent most of the day out and only returned to have dinner and sleep. We BBQ both evenings and the couple were kind to help out and offered charcoal and lighter. The kitchen had the basic, not extravagant and we managed through. House was interesting and we definitely enjoyed the quirks of the house.

Panoramic APT in the vineyard & breathtaking view

ReinoudRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We had a wonderful stay in the apartment and really felt in love with the place. The terrace is very inviting, we spent many hours there, enjoying sunshine, coffee, good wine and cheese fondue. The mattresses are of good quality, ensuring good night rest. The host is very kind and has many good tips what can be done in the area and responds quickly to questions and makes sure your privacy is guaranteed. With the guest card you have free public transportation in the area and discount on boat trips and other activities in the neighborhood. Handy if you want to visit for instance Montreux or Évian-les-Bains. We spent many hours walking the area, the trails through the vineyards are spectacular. Sunset at the viewpoint below is unforgettable. When we ever revisit this part of Switzerland, this apartment will be top of the list.

Large 250 year old farmhouse newly renovated

YvonneRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We really enjoyed our vacation in the stylishly renovated farmhouse! The views and the surroundings with the rig chicken in front of the door are absolutely fantastic. For our larger family/holiday group, the cozy and nicely furnished holiday home was ideal. The terrace with evening sun and hotpot was particularly beautiful. In the morning / noon we had sun on the other seat on the other side of the house. Host Yvonne was very helpful, accommodating, and quick to respond to questions and concerns.

Semi-detached villa near the baths - Villa B4

LeiraRating, 5 stars2 months 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!

Berglodge Beverin with unique views

RetoRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Our stay at the Airbnb in Mathon was simply fantastic! The property is idyllically located in the mountains and offers breathtaking views – perfect for relaxing and unwinding. A special highlight was the hike to Libi, a beautiful mountain lake about 30 minutes away. The nature, the tranquility and the fresh mountain air were simply magnificent. However, the lake is still a little too cold in May. In the evening we enjoyed a cozy fondue together – a real experience! The perfect end to the day was then in the self-heated hotpot under the stars – an absolute feel-good moment that we will not soon forget. Thank you so much for this wonderful time – I'm sure we'll be back!

NaemiRating, 5 stars1 month ago
You just feel comfortable upon arrival! It had everything you need in the cabin. The location is perfect for many hikes, great restaurant nearby, comfortable bed, great oven and terrace and the kitchen was well equipped. Only if you value privacy should you avoid the vacation season. On average, people walked past the house every 10 minutes from morning to evening. And since a bent large branch lay on the hiking trail, people even ran across the terrace while I was on it. I was already missing privacy!!

Typical Leventina CHALET in a corner of paradise

BenjaminRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
My wife and I very much enjoyed our time at Sara’s beautiful chalet. It is so peaceful and serene and was a great escape from the hustle and bustle of life. The chalet is tastefully decorated and complete with everything you could need. The grounds are beautiful with flowers and landscaping and a view that cannot be beat. The drive up to the chalet is certainly steep with many switchbacks. I didn’t mind driving it but if you are not a fan of tight mountain roads you may not enjoy the drive. For us, the drive was not a big deal and the chalet was worth every bit of the 20 minute mountain road. Sara was a great host who provided many recommendations for things to do in the Ticino area. We had a fantastic time here and would highly recommend.

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.
