dock edge
María was very friendly and quick to respond. She was also flexible with our check-out, which was very helpful. The place was even better than the pictures and a lot of thoughtful touches both in the kitchen ( coffe/tea/ salt/pepper) and the bathroom ( toothbrush/paste). The beds were super comfy, the location at the pier with a sea view was perfect for us; we enjoyed our short stay very much.

Central and short road to everything
We had an amazing stay! The apartment was exactly as described, it was clean, comfortable and fully equipped with everything we needed. The location was perfect, with a short distance to both the shop, Strand hotel and bus stop. Communication with the host was also great! Fast, helpful and pleasant all the way. We felt really welcome and will definitely come back if we are in the area again. Highly recommended! 10/10 amazing host!

Apartment by the sea w/jetty
We spent exceptionally beautiful days in a very romantic place in a prime location. We liked the view of the water and the property decorated with many plants. The warm and cordial manner of Wenche and Leif and the pleasant conversations made the stay a special experience.

Very welcome host and lovely views

Loft apartment on Sørland's finest island, Justøya.
It is a practical cottage with a nice atmosphere. We felt right at home there. It was very nice that we could play in the garden and the sandpit, swing and slide provided a lot of fun with our daughter. From the cottage, you can take beautiful walks to the fortress and the harbor.

Great house near dyreparken and a beach. Walking distance to supermarket and bakery makes everything easy. Very suitable for 2 families as we were.

Beautiful holiday home in Risør with panoramic sea view!
It was great staying. The host was quick and responsive in communication. The check-in was smooth and the place was clean and beautiful. Little bit issue was with the heating. It was tough to control the heat at the house. So the house was warmer than we expected. And we could not able to reduce the heating. The host can create a clear manual for the heating control and light control at the house as its app based.

Summer house
Had some nice days here. The kids had a short walk to the playground and beach. Beautiful view. Recommended.

Newly restored south country house in the center of Risør.
It was the loveliest house with plenty of room for our family, three generations, 5 adults and a baby. We were super lucky with the weather and used the lovely terrace all the time. The house is well equipped, neat , clean and practical. Highly recommend the place.

Idyllic house in the center of Arendal - on the water's edge
Nice and fit large apartment centrally located in nice surroundings. Couldn't be centrally located, but was still not a large amount of noise.

Lovely Sørlandsidyll, walking distance to the sea
Camilla responded quickly, was welcoming and friendly. 😀 We had some great days in the house! It was both tidy and clean. Although the house is close to a road, you don't notice the cars passing by. Definitely a house we could think of renting again 😀

Beachfront Holiday Apartment
Such an amazing place and location. The house was gorgeous, and the hosts were so helpful. They even left fishing poles for my son to use, so sweet. Wish we could have stayed longer.

A beautiful modern apartment in a fantastic, quiet location with the possibility to explore the beautiful nature. Thomas offered us a game console (our boys were very happy) and we were able to charge our electric car overnight without any problems. Thanks for a great start to our Norway vacation!
