The Glass House & SPA

EllaRating, 5 stars1 week ago

My three colleagues and I really enjoyed our stay! The jacuzzi was amazing :) We would definitely come back. The location is also fantastic – right by the lake. We really appreciated how flexible you were with the check-out, that was a big help. One small suggestion: it would be great to have a wider selection of spices for cooking. Other than that, everything was perfect – thank you for a wonderful time!

MariusRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago

Ana's and Carlos' apartment in Vira is absolutely wonderful! Probably the best we have experienced so far on Airbnb. All seemed new, super well maintained, looked brand new, super clean, almost like we were the first ones ever staying there. The design of the apartment and the attention to detail of the host is something I never experienced on this level. The price, considering we are talking about Switzerland, was also very good. The location is also perfect, in the old center of the village of Vira surrounded by old stone houses, near the lake. When you open the window in the master bedroom in the morning, you are greeted with the marvellous view of the old church, the old village houses, the lake and the mountains towards Locarno (and you can get to Locarno by boat in 20 min). If we will be back in the area of Locarno, this is the place we will try to stay at, for sure!

Villa Riva, Ferien am See

NataschaRating, 5 stars1 month ago

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Riva! The house was clean, welcoming, very well-equipped and just like the pictures. No nasty surprises. Access is via a barrier and two gates but everything is well explained by the host with a map to support it. We can't be wrong. The small sandy beach in front of the house and the adjoining playground made the children happy. Thank you for everything, we'll be happy to come back.
