Quiet apartment in the old town of Heidelberg
It was a beautiful and easy to live in. It was close and walkable to most attractions. The place was clean and well organized.

Idyllic vacation home in the Odenwald
The perfect place for our honeymoon weekend. Quietly located on a small stream and without direct neighbors. The chalet was thoughtfully and very lovingly designed. There's nothing missing. We particularly liked the many seating options throughout the premises. A path was even mowed across the meadow so that you can easily reach the hiking trail. Michael was always very courteous and radiated (even if we did not meet in person) a cordiality that shows that he is very concerned about the well-being of his visitors. Whether for a short break or a longer rest, we highly recommend this place!

Industrial loft with private sauna
We were very happy with Omur’s space; it was perfect for our family of three. First, Omur is honestly the nicest host we’ve ever had. He was able to accommodate our last minute booking, allowed us to check-in early, had eggs, toast, drinks and treats for us, which was helpful (and thoughtful) since we just arrived from the States and were tired. The space is even more fun in person; it is unique and has a ton of character. The sauna was amazing. Everything is within walking distance – grocery, restaurants, river front, even the castle (if you are active). I highly recommend this location. Thank you Omur!

°Fantastic apartment with castle & Neckar view°
We really enjoyed staying at Dennis' place in Heidelberg. Though it's a steep climb up the stairs to get to the apartment, the views from the deck are worth it. Old town area is easily acessible by 20 minute walk or riding the street cars that stop right in fron of the apartment. Dennis was always helpful and friendly and immediately responsive - an excellent host. I would highly recommend!

Apartment in the house, free parking, air conditioning
We really enjoyed our stay, the peacefulness, the comfort and the balcony over looking a quite place. We sat at the balcony for breakfast and really enjoy the morning - we sat inside for lunch and enjoyed the sunshine coming through the window. Over all it was a wonderful experience, our only complain is, that we didn’t stay here longer than 3 days. Definitely recommend!!

Above the rooftops of Heidelberg
Sebastian's apartment is a peaceful oasis a 20-minute walk from the center. The neighborhood is charming with its café on the square and the friendly market. It's a nice place that allows you to visit the city without suffering from the crowds. I would recommend it in a second.

1-Zi.-W. - Zw. Heidelb.und MA
A super cozy and very well-equipped apartment. The welcome by Armin was very nice and everything was straightforward. Clear recommendation!

Style and comfort - country house villa by the Felsenmeer
We immediately felt at home and that's not an understatement. A very trusting, open approach to us as guests. A fantastic, lovingly designed house with a wonderful, spacious garden. We had a great family weekend!
