Beautiful apartment from the 16th century
A very special beautiful apartment with a lot of time-honored atmosphere. The generously sized apartment is a lovingly restored 500-year-old house and is worth every penny. It is well equipped and cozy. Mascha and her mother are very friendly and interesting people. The location of the apartment is fantastic, the Main is a minute's walk away, once you jump over the bridge you are right in the very beautiful Sommerhausen, Ochsenfurt and Würzburg are also just around the corner. And everywhere on the steep slopes grows wine, so beautiful to look at. I highly recommend the accommodation.....

Apartment in the medieval city wall
We were in Cologne for a short trip and felt very comfortable at Sonja's! Sonja and her family are great hosts who also provided us with tips about the accommodation. The accommodation as part of the city wall is a special highlight! We had our toddler with us and there were great amenities - in addition to a baby bed and high chair, there were also toys and children's dishes. We would book again anytime!

Newly renovated apartment in the heart of Munich
We had a lovely vacation in Munich while staying at Fabian’s house. It is a lovely neighbourhood close to a river and within 15-20 mins walking distance of the old town. The neighbourhood is full of bakeries, cafes, bars and restaurants within 5-10 mins walking distance. Fabian was a great host. He was very quick in responding to our questions. In case we come back to Munich in the future, we will stay at Fabian’s apt, subject of course to availability.

Seaside Apartment in the Olympic Harbour of Kiel
Sabine is a fabulous host, friendly, courteous, polite, easily accessible. The apartment is super nice, very clean, well equipped and offers the most beautiful view of the sea. :) We had a wonderful time and would be happy to come back :).

somewhere else - Stylish & Cozy City Apartment
This is a great neighbourhood - a few mins walk to the train and just a wee bit longer to the bus - but that's also where there are heaps of shops and a great supermarket. The local Saturday market was a highlight and we enjoyed the local cafe with jazz we stumbled across on Sunday night. The apartment is well designed and equipped - I loved it. Beautiful linen on the beds - big comfortable beds, fresh flowers, good range of condiments. The location and being on the ground floor were the deal breakers. Im already planning my next stay (and will remodel my pwn bathroom based on this very funky one). We stayed 7 nights and the weekend (Fri/Sat) very noisey lots of street noise - however otherwise very peaceful. I'm already planning on how to come back.

Romantic Historical Art Nouveau-Villa
I was a guest of Bastian with my little son and we felt completely comfortable from the first moment! The accommodation is fantastically beautiful, lovingly furnished and perfectly equipped – ideal for an extended weekend or a few relaxing days. The location is great: In a few minutes you are at the subway and quickly in the city center. Supermarkets and a drugstore right around the corner made everyday life with a child very straightforward. The contact was warm and reliable, the communication always smooth. The personal and friendly welcome at check-in was particularly nice. The only small downside: there are no restaurants or cafes in the immediate vicinity. With the good connection to the city, however, this is easy to overlook. Conclusion: A wonderful place to stay with great hosts – highly recommended, especially with a child. We will be happy to come back!

Time out in the forest with an oven and sauna!
We had a very nice weekend with Julia and her family. The quiet location in the middle of the forest is ideal for relaxation!

Relaxen am Wald
It is the best place to escape the pressures of life. A very quiet place and the host is a more than wonderful person and very helpful. I don't think there is a more beautiful place in all Germany

Ferienwohnung im Allgäu "Am Hirschbach"
Britta's very likeable, uncomplicated and unobtrusive appearance made it difficult for us to say goodbye on the day of departure. From the first minute of our vacation, we were in feel-good mode. The kitchen amenities make the heart of a self-catering and hobby cook beat faster. Is there anything more beautiful than sleeping restfully on vacation, despite unfamiliar beds? No problem with Britta. Cozy living room with tasteful furnishings, a balcony with heavenly mountain panoramic views. And where else are you greeted in an apartment by the host with two beautiful bouquets of flowers? We will be back! Thank you for this wonderful stay.

Luxurious house, Barrel-Sauna, Beautiful nature
We all liked Andres' apartment. We were there with 8 adults and 2 young children. That was a great fit. The area is beautiful, but even in bad weather you can enjoy playing pool or using the sauna. Communication with André was great and he is very accommodating We would book the apartment again

Designer house with hot tub & sauna
Absolutely loved our stay at this eco-house! The atmosphere is peaceful and rejuvenating, with great vibes throughout the home and garden. The jacuzzi tub and sauna were perfect for unwinding, and the beautiful garden added a serene touch to our mornings and evenings. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook, and the fridge had a thoughtful selection of items available for purchase at very reasonable prices. Every detail was well-planned, and the whole experience felt both sustainable and luxurious. Highly recommend for anyone looking to relax and recharge!

Great and quiet place to get some rest between intense days at the fair and exhibition in Hannover.

Your guide to Germany
Welcome to Germany
Germany might just be the best place to orient yourself to central Europe's varied terrains: Its borders are flanked by vertiginous Alps, brilliant lakes, and dune-ribbed beaches. Off the northernmost tip, the Frisian Islands form a dreamy 24-mile long archipelago, with the island of Sylt shining as a popular choice for a ritzy getaway. Down south, the Romantic Road winds through Bavaria’s historic walled towns, Romanesque villages, and mountainous landscape. This rugged region is also synonymous with popular festivals like Oktoberfest. In the country’s interior, the scenery softens into idyllic valleys, plains dotted with farmhouses, and meditative forests. But it’s German cities like Berlin, Munich, and Frankfurt that offer a steady pulse of culture. The country still hums with activity throughout the winter season when the snow-capped mountains change from a hiker's paradise to a base for skiing. The famous Christmas markets that spring up across most towns and cities in Germany offer mulled wine, traditional sweets, and handmade crafts.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Germany
With the weather at its finest and festivals galore, summer is the perfect time to stay in one of Germany’s vacation rentals. Travelers take advantage of the long sunny days to hike and swim amid the glorious landscape and linger in the country’s iconic beer gardens. From December through early January, Germany transforms into a winter wonderland with famed Christmas markets lighting up nearly every city and village, set against a backdrop of pristine snow. This is also a great time to visit for winter sports enthusiasts — especially if skiing in Alp towns like Oberstdorf is on your bucket list. Although summer is considered peak travel season, fall and winter are also popular times to visit. For smaller crowds, visit during spring and autumn, when you’ll find festivals and wine harvest taking place in smaller towns and villages.
Top things to do in Germany
Bavaria
Bavaria’s countryside boasts a trove of natural wonders. Bavarian Forest National Park, the country’s first national park, is home to 14,000 wildlife species, including the endangered lynx, Ural owl, and capercaillie. The shorelines of Lake Constance’s sparkling cyan waters touch Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, making the lake a hotspot for swimmers and sailors from all three countries. The setting for all this: The Bavarian Alps and Danube plains, which are dotted with storybook castles fit for a fairytale.
Neuschwanstein Castle
Originally a retreat for King Ludwig II, this 19th-century castle is now one of Europe’s most-visited citadels. A mix of Romanesque and Byzantine architecture, it is inspired by castles and cathedrals of the king’s childhood. Inside, discreet passageways and grand hallways lead to gilded rooms and skyscraping watchtowers.
Museum Island
Museum Island is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Berlin’s most popular stops. Here, five world-class museums were built over the course of centuries. The Altes Museum was designed by one of Prussia’s most prominent architects, the Pergamon Museum houses a coveted collection of Greek and Roman antiquities, and the Bode Museum is known for its 19th sculpture collection.
