We have just got home from a week staying at the apartment and already miss it. Everything was perfect from Ryans communication beforehand and all the tips he gave us. I can't think of a single negative thing to say about, every you could possibly want is there. The area is wonderful too we loved wandering the beautiful streets and marina. I would 100% recommend staying in Birgu if you come to Malta and can't think of a better apartment to stay in.

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 249 reviewsBrand new cozy apartment on the waterfront
Anne-Mette Rugren’s apartment was probably one of the best AirBnBs I have stayed in!! We stayed for 2 weeks. Anne-Mette let us check in early, which was very welcome! Location very convenient: easy 5-minute walk from the Orientkaj metro station, which is 5-10 minutes into central Copenhagen. There is a Lidl and Netto supermarket right around the corner. Space: on the second floor. There’s a lift. It is bright clean and modern. We stayed in winter and it was warm and cosy. There is underfloor heating and everything is double glazed, so it was also very quiet and peaceful, with hardly any sound from the neighbours (this was a huge plus as I am a light sleeper). Amenities: Bed was comfy, while the kitchen and bathroom had everything we needed, including washing machine and dryer. Highly recommended. We will definitely return if we are ever in Copenhagen again.

The value of this stay was incredible and unmatched. The space was extremely clean and decorations were so charming. Cindy clearly went above and beyond to welcome guests to her place, from the basic bits in the fridge and counter treats to the large towels and very clear instructions on all the amenities. The kitchen had all cookware needed to make breakfast each morning and cook tacos one night. The shower water pressure was very good. The balcony and fireplace were such fun features. We were so pleased with it all!

This apartment was cozy and had a lovely view of the sea! Quiet area where street parking available, but it is winter. We could walk to some nearby sites and several restaurants where we dined on the waterfront. Our host went above and beyond to help us stream a US football championship which was much appreciated!! Note that clothes dryer is a shared one 2 floors up, not in unit, but we managed fine. Plenty of hot water for nice showers and extra blankets for chilly nights. This was a well priced stay and we recommend.

4.87 out of 5 average rating, 134 reviewsBetween two waters, next to a citypark
A convenient, lovely, and welcoming home met our needs while visiting Gent. Close to transit and friendly neighborhood surroundings without feeling too touristy. We appreciated the plants and books and feel of a home that welcomes travelers. Meeting the host was an added bonus, as we felt the care given, and felt positive about caring for the place while we stayed, and when we checked out. When/if we return to Gent, we would stay here again, and recommended it to our local Gent friends for when they have visitors in the future.

4.77 out of 5 average rating, 543 reviews32m2 apartment with Sauna. 600m from city cente
Cute flat in a beautiful building and surroundings. Easy to get to the city center and nice restaurants nearby. Fits four persons, although better for families since the couch is not fullsize. Will definitely go again!

Great place with cosy vibe in winter-quiet but right in thick of town-shops and restaurants to walk to close by.

4.96 out of 5 average rating, 70 reviewsLuxury waterside wharf house 200m to beach
We had a wonderful stay at Annie’s place in Hayle. We have family local to this area so it was ideal for us. We loved that there was a gorgeous beach restaurant just a stones throw away (Gilbert’s) where we enjoyed a lovely lunch. The beaches at Hayle are some of the best in Cornwall and their locality is perfect. The house was cosy, warm and had all the amenities you could need. The beds were comfortable, showers hot and furniture comfortable and clearly well looked after. We would definitely return and would highly recommend.

Absolutely wonderful. If I could give 6 stars I would. Really comfortable. Immediately felt like home. And the view!! Stunningly beautiful. The pictures do not give it justice. The house is located at the center of all the interesting parts of the region. With a car you can easily get to Flam, Sognefjellet. Sogndal is really close too. And Ewa was really helpful and understanding. My wife and I are soo grateful. Do not look elsewhere. This is the place to stay in that part of Norway

The cottage was historic and charming, right in the centre of Salcombe and literally a short walk away from pubs, shops and a beautiful harbourside stroll. David was very helpful and courteous in all his dealings and even sent a guide to Salcombe in the post, prior to our stay. Thank you - we really had a lovely time for my husband's 70th birthday!

4.9 out of 5 average rating, 133 reviewsFrontline Beach bungalow facing Marina/saltees
Beautiful, comfortable seaside home in a picturesque setting. The views from the house were amazing, we enjoyed looking right down on the beach from the living room. We visited the Saltee sauna each day which was well worth it and left us feeling refreshed. Most restaurants were closed with it being right after Christmas. However, there was a coffee hatch with pastries in the village and we drove to Mary Barry’s restaurant in the nearby village of Kilmore- the food here was excellent. It was so good that we went twice! Thank you very much for a fabulous stay Patricia!

Spent a wonderful few days celebrating a special birthday. The cottage was wonderful in an exceptional location for walking and recharging the batteries and enjoying a relaxing time away. Would fully recommend the cottage and location for anyone wishing for relaxation and taking time out. The scenery is enchanting and changes throughout the day. Loved everything about the time away. Thank you Lindy x

We stayed in this beautiful Apartment over Christmas and New Year’s and we had an amazing time!! The hosts were incredibly friendly, kind, and took such great care of us – that really made the trip extra special. The apartment is beautiful and in a perfect location, right by the harbor in the center of Chania. We were three people, and it worked perfectly for us – plenty of space to spend time together but also to have some privacy when needed, which we really appreciated as a family. I’d definitely recommend it and would love to stay here again!

4.96 out of 5 average rating, 75 reviewsFabulous River House - perfect location!
We stayed at Jo’s place as a very last minute booking as our own house had suffered a flood, with a newborn and two year old this could’ve been disastrous but Jo’s house felt so homely, had everything we needed and the location for us was just unbeatable. It had lovely views of the water, a coffee shop a couple of doors down and plenty of restaurants/cafes within walking distance and yet it still felt peaceful and quiet. Would definitely recommend and would love to stay here again!

This is an outstanding flat in a perfect location overlooking Hartlepool Marina, the balcony from the living room makes it a perfect place to be (weather permitting as I visited in January). The flat is clean, comfortable, very quiet, well equipped kitchen and a great location with lots within a few mins walk including multiple restaurants. A great find!

Dean's apartment was perfect. We felt right at home. The view was amazing. Our daughter went out each morning at 8 to see the sunrise and also took a swim. Will definitely stay here again and Dean also has another apartment in same building with the same view. Everything has been thought through. Thank you again Dean, we will be back. 🙂🙂
