Apartment holiday rentals in Schwende-Rüte

I recommend booking the apartment.

Bijou is really the right name for this accommodation, with a very neat welcome, charming, very good taste, practical, very well furnished. Thank you Rosemarie, you greatly contributed to our enjoyment of this stay

The days in Paradiesli were wonderful! I was able to recharge body and soul. The surroundings are fantastic - perfect for hiking! In addition, Ursula is extremely friendly and helpful. So I immediately felt at home. The apartment is great - very nice and very clean. I look forward to the next time! Jacqueline

We spent 9 nights in Brigitte's apartment, which is located above Appenzell (about 10 minutes' walk from the center) on the edge of the forest and offers a wonderful view of the Alpstein. Wonderfully quiet and close to nature. The granny flat of the farmhouse has recently been tastefully and gently renovated, with the well-equipped kitchen and bathroom being new and ultra-modern, while the large living room and bedroom have been preserved in the old, characterful style. Brigitte is a very warm host. She provided us with current tips (for alpine ascents you have to get up early...;-) and answered our questions within a very short time. We were completely satisfied! There is a lot of beauty to see and discover around Appenzell: tasting alpine bitters, show dairy, baking beavers, indoor swimming pool, village tour, golf course Gonten, etc... Säntis with Schwägalp, Ebenalp with the Äscher, Kronberg and Hoher Kasten offer great hikes for everyone. Recommended.

The apartment is wonderfully located to experience the beautiful area at and around the Säntis. The contact with the landlord was very friendly and uncomplicated. The apartment itself is very new and nicely decorated, with lots of wood and good equipment that you immediately feel comfortable and at home. We will be very happy to come back here!

Great historic location above the town square. Comfortable and easy to check in, would definitely stay again.

Everything wonderful, thank you :)

Absolutely fabulous stay at Fabian’s house — truly a hidden gem nestled in the heart of the Swiss Alps! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that this home was created with immense passion, care, and a keen eye for detail. Every corner of the house exudes comfort and style, blending Swiss charm with modern luxury. It’s spotless, thoughtfully decorated, and fully equipped with everything one could possibly need for a perfect stay. The view? Simply breathtaking. Waking up each morning to the majestic mountains of the Swiss Alps right outside the window was like living in a postcard. The location is serene, yet conveniently located for exploring the surrounding areas, hiking, or just soaking in the peaceful alpine vibe. Fabian was an incredible host, and we were lucky to also meet his wonderful parents and friend — all of whom went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and well taken care of. Their warmth, helpfulness, and local insights truly elevated our stay.

The place was very comfortable for our family of five. The view from the balcony was lovely. We walked to all the restaurants and shops. We would definitely recommend a stay here.

We enjoyed our vacation in the accommodation very much. The hikes are all super accessible by car and you can walk to the lake wonderfully with the dog. Here it is recommended to know where the dog beach is, as the bathing meadow has strict dog bed prohibition. The apartment was very pleasantly cold despite the high temperatures outside. The garden is very well maintained and invites you to the aperitif outside, as it is also fenced. We would leave again, highly recommended

Regula's apartment was super clean and had such and amazing view! It was so quiet at night and had a giant sky filled with stars. Convenient location and only a short drive to Appenzel. We used this place as a base camp to hike to the Schafler hut and Äscher. Regula was such a wonderful host and left us some delicious homemade jam upon our arrival. She gave us great recommendations and was super friendly. This was a highlight of our trip. If her apartment is available, book it!

Great accommodation, even more beautiful than in the photos. We particularly enjoyed the beautiful terrace. Elisabeth and Andreas were great hosts, friendly and very accommodating. In the refrigerator, we even found chilled local beer, eggs from their own small farm and homemade jam, which could be bought at a local price. We will be happy to come back!

The apartment was absolutely beautiful, clean, stylish, and very comfortable. The host was incredibly helpful, responsive, and professional throughout our stay. We felt very welcome and well taken care of. Highly recommended! 🇱🇮

Everything was great, very clean, huge with plenty of space, parking in the parking garage was free, you live on the 2nd floor. There is plenty to do in the area. The landlord was always available and gave us tips, everything was as described and great. The only thing that bothers me on vacation is that I have to take off the bed linen myself and take out the trash. Otherwise, everything is recommended. Only sockets are strange, thick plugs like a hair dryer from home I could not use.

Highly recommended. Beautiful view of the lake and mountain panorama. Great central starting point for all kinds of activities in Switzerland. Very friendly and easily accessible host who responded quickly with solutions. Very nice and clean place to stay. We will be happy to come back.

Beautiful room with a lovely outdoor area! Would definitely stay again.

We had a wonderful stay in the apartment Seeliebe and can absolutely recommend it! Everything was very clean, stylishly furnished and perfect for relaxing. The quiet location immediately provides relaxation. We particularly liked the fair prices of the mini-bar - a great addition! Of course, because the whirlpool and the sauna too. The contact was friendly and straightforward. We will definitely come back! Best regards

The accommodation was exactly as described, spacious indoors and outside, with a fabulous garden looking onto the countryside. Unfortunately the weather wasn't warm enough to enjoy more than the hot tub - which was fantastic! There is a bus all the way from the property to the island of Lindau. The host was very friendly and helpful, at the same time giving us space. A brilliant place we would definitely recommend!

Great place, we enjoyed our stay!

Many thanks to the landlords. Everything was just perfect. You have to experience this beautiful place yourself and so we recommend everyone to linger here in the nature at the forest with a beautiful view. Thank you and best regards, Sabine and Thomas

it was great to stay on the real farm!

We used the accommodation for a weekend together with friends and felt very comfortable. Elke is a super host and the apartment is really nicely furnished and equipped. Glad to come back!

There were two of us staying in this beautiful apartment for two nights and we felt very comfortable. It is a 10-minute walk to the cable car and there is a lot to do. The hot tub worked well and was the special highlight of the stay after the strenuous snowshoe hike. For us, the size of the apartment was perfect. For more people, however, it may get a little tight. We will be happy to come back!

The place was very spacious for two people, it has an amazing view of rhe Constance area & the lake from rooftop balcony which also has a hot tub-it was a great addition and we used it every day. The location is good and easy to access the main locations on foot, is about 20 mins walk to the lake so if this is a problem for you then maybe look to stay closer. The circular stairs to the upper level are tight but ok, just remember to watch your head as i am 6 foot plus and hit it a few times! The unit was fully equipped plus light & bright. The upstairs bedroom did get hot (in summer) but was ok, the bed is big and very comfortable. There was a wine fridge with drinks for purchase which was a nice touch. Overall the place was very much as described & as per the pictures, and the hosts were proactive and very responsive. We greatly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend to others
