We enjoyed the place
Clean and spacious apartment. Have everything we need (6 of us) for the whole week. Diarmuid is great to work with. The only thing guest should know is that the beds are kind of short. If you are over 6 ft tall, you might find it a bit tight.

Waterfall heaven
The apartment was clean, spacious, comfortable and met all the needs of our family of 6 (17yo and up). Diarmund and Cascia were excellent hosts. They provided detailed communication, quick responses to questions and Cascia met us shortly after we arrived to orient us and also provided many local recommendations. Words will not suffice to describe the beauty and peacefulness found on the balcony... Surrounded by snow capped mountains and at least 3 waterfalls (one of which is lit at night) with the background music of rushing water, birds chirping and cowbells. It doesn't get much better.

We loved staying here and our host was very easy to communicate with.
Clean, spacious, comfortable home with the most amazing view from the deck! We enjoyed the walk from the back across the meadow to get to the path to town or to walk futher into the valley. The campground's store and restaurant are very convenient if you don't feel like walking to town. Bus stop is right in front of the property so easy to get to train and train station. We LOVED this area in Switzerland....breathtaking!

Loved our stay Love the location
Beautiful spot! Loved the view from the deck/balcony! The apartment had everything we needed and was comfortable for 3 couples. We enjoyed the restaurant at the campground and the easy 10-15 minute walk to Lauterbrunnen. Very convenient location to see the beautiful Bernese Oberland area of Switzerland by train, cable car and funicular! We walked to Trummelbach Falls...it's a must do! Diarmuid was easy to work with and gave us great suggestions for hikes. Thank you!!

Lots of space for extended family of 7, including 3 teenagers. The most comfortable beds ever which was perfect after long days in the mountains. Centrally located so everything was easily accessible. Beautiful mountain views from living room and deck. We hated to leave!

Loved Lauterbrunnen, stunning scenery and great comfortable condo!
We are so happy we stayed in the town of Lauterbrunnen, it was very convenient for day trips and the scenery was stunning! The condo was well equipped and very comfortable. We walked into town often using the path behind the complex and it was only about a 10-15 min easy walk. We also took the bus which was super convenient going either to the train or in the other direction to the cable car leading up to the Schilthorn. The bus stops were right outside the complex operating buses every half hour. The camp ground right next door was great too! We ate at the restaurant and stopped for a drink there after a long day of touring. The food was very good and the prices were reasonable! Diarmuid was great to deal with and gave us some great travel advice as it was our first time visiting Switzerland. I would highly recommend staying here!

We loved our stay. It felt like home. Beautiful place to stay.
We loved our stay in Lauterbrunnen. Diarmuid and Casaia are wonderful host. Di met us in an hour when we reached the property and walked us through the property and also gave us information about places to visit while we were there. The place is very well managed and clean. We felt like we were at home. Its only 10 minutes walking distance from train station and village or 3 minutes in bus. The bus stop is right in front of the apartment. Would love to go back and stay at the same place.

The property was excellent and the owner was very helpful.
We had a wonderful week in this very comfortable property. It is located a short walk from town. There is a campground nearby with an excellent restaurant and grocery store. It is furnished nicely and very clean. The owner was very responsive to any of our questions. We used Lauterbrunnen as our base to explore Wengen and Murren, the Jungfrau train to the Top of Europe, Bern and Luzern. Our Swiss travel passes made this very easy to manage. The restaurants in Lauterbrunnen are very good. We would love to come back at some point and do some more hiking and we would definitely stay at this property again. We could not have had a better week in this gorgeous area.

Very nice apartment, beautiful view, great host, some concerns.
This is a nice modern apartment in one of Switzerland's most beautiful valleys. In a comfortable, quiet neighborhood near Lauterbrunnen's waterfalls. 10 minute scenic walk to town. Comfortable sofas in living room and very nice host. There were several small drawbacks to be aware of: 1) even though this is a 3 bedroom apartment only 1 key is provided. 2) master bed is not king size, it is full size (queen size or even a little smaller). mattress is not comfortable. disliked the bed. 3) the view is not facing the waterfall or mountain, it is facing the house next door or parking lot depending which room you look out of. you can see the waterfall and mountain if you look to the side from the balcony. it is not the front view that some other apartments in the building get. 4) hot water shuts off during the day, you have to flip a switch in the breaker panel to turn it on again if you run out of hot water during the day. Despite these drawbacks we enjoyed the apartment although it was a bit annoying at times.

Fantastic location - easy access throughout the region.
Home is clean, well maintained, just as described. I would certainly return. Property manager met us the day that we arrived to familiarize us with the home and the area. He shared many recommendations, and we used many of them. The hikes that were suggested were extraordinary - all perfect for our family including kids ages 6-11. This has been a trip of a lifetime!

A wonderful week in a great flat
Our family of five spent a wonderful week in this flat in Lauterbrunnen and couldn't have been more pleased. The flat is well-located and very well-equipped with views into the stunning Lauterbrunnen valley. Our host was gracious in arranging two extra cots for us when guests visited. On our arrival we were met by Die, who was helpful in orienting us to the flat and the area. Lauterbrunnen is an excellent choice for activities in the Alps. This is one of the best vrbo experiences we've had!

The perfect place to stay in the Bernese Oberland!
While we have previously rented vacation homes in the USA, this was our first experience renting abroad and it was a perfect! The process was quite simple and secure. My husband and I were traveling in Switzerland with another couple and desired a base to return to each evening. We selected Lauterbrunnen as our desired base location and began a search of vacation rentals nearby. Our requirements were 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and we feel so fortunate to have found this rental. Our traveling friends were quite pleased with the selection and acquisition of this apartment too. The location cannot be beat.as It lies within easy walking distance of the Lauterbrunnen train station or literally steps away from a local bus that will take you into town or to the station. The apartment is located in a lovely area with similar buildings all with lovely views of the Staubbach Falls. This immaculate, like new 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home has beautiful furnishings and every comfort you could want including a fully equipped, modern kitchen and a washer and dryer.The building is quite secure requiring a key to enter both it and the apartment. We appreciated that the apartment owners prohibited smoking. What a pleasure it was to unpack, venture out each day to a different site and then return to our lovely temporary Swiss home each evening. We had television and WIFI, a phone/intercom and best of all a lovely balcony to sit on each evening watching the many waterfalls and sun set over the mountains. We saw base jumpers and hang gliders nearly everyday and each morning we awoke to birds singing and cowbells ringing. You are steps away from hiking paths to Trummelback Falls, Staubbach Falls and the lifts to Murren and Gimmelwald. It just doesn't get much better than that! We ate at a great little restaurant nearby in a camping area which also had a convenience store which stocked most everything you would need for preparing your own meals along with incidentals you might have forgotten to bring.. I cannot adequately express our appreciation to the owners of this lovely home except to say thank you sincerely for making our Switzerland vacation extra special by allowing us to stay in your lovely vacation home. We highly recommend this rental for your dream Swiss vacation! .

Had a great time in June 2010
Our family of four stayed here in June of 2010. The location was great and the scenery from the apartment is fantastic. There is plenty of room in the apartment and it is very comfortable. We found it to be an ideal base for exploring the valley. In the town there is a grocery store and there is a camp store right across the road. The location was very quiet and peaceful. We would definitely recommend it to others.

moderna and clean but not 4 star
While the apartment was clean and modern, it certainly was not deserving of a 4 star rating in my opinion. It was minimally supplied ie no (or inadequate) soap, toilet paper, kleenex/tissues, coffee filters, garbage bags etc). Was also quite noisy with construction right across the street (would have been nice to know before booking) and a large campground nearby ( where the festivities went on late into the evening a couple of nights). Also was no sign of the local contact person until we were packing to leave. Having said this, Lauterbrunnen is a wonderful place wih terrific hiking etc

Luxurious apartment in stunning location
The apartment was really well equipped with everything required for a comfortable stay. The apartment is very fresh and cleaned to a very high standard. Washing up liquid and dishwasher tablets were provided - you just need to bring washing powder if you need to wash whilst there. It was really good to have a wide selection of DVD's for adults and children and a range of books/games. The garage is very tight but we did manage to fit in the Golf estate hire car. There is a balcony but no other outside space (one of the pictures we saw of the apartment looks like it is in a meadow). We got the 6 day Jungfraubahn pass which meant that we didn't use our hire car at all during our stay!! It was expensive but enabled us to travel free on all cable cars and trains ensuring that we got to see the very best that the area has to offer. The Hotel Oberland was great for an evening meal out - varied menu (with local specialities) and great service. Lauterbrunnen really did surpass our expectations.
