since 2022

As of October 2026.

The Bernese Oberland is where we started. In 2022 we began with a studio of our own in the Haslital and let it on Airbnb. After good experiences, more accommodations of our own followed in Reichenbach, in Diemtigen and on the Axalp, and later the apartments of other owners. Today we manage more than 50 properties in the Bernese Oberland and work throughout Switzerland.

Our organisation in the Bernese Oberland

As a holiday apartment management company, we let and manage apartments on Airbnb, Booking.com and other platforms. In the Bernese Oberland we do this with our own people and our own infrastructure:

  • Our own staff, spread across the region, including in Interlaken, Spiez, Frutigen, the Diemtigtal, Brienz, Kandersteg and Adelboden

  • Our own laundry in Wimmis

  • Listings with professional photos and prices that dynamic pricing software and our pricing experts adjust continuously

  • Guest support around the clock, check-in and check-out

  • Registration of guests and stays with the relevant authorities, and tourist tax management

  • An owner portal with bookings and income, plus a monthly statement and payout

You keep control of your apartment and of the dates you want to use it yourself. Instead of a fixed price, we agree a percentage commission, calculated on the net rental income after platform fees. You will receive the exact terms with your personal quote.

What owners in the Bernese Oberland need to know

Whether and how you may let your apartment depends heavily on the municipality. The share of second homes matters most: if it is above 20 percent, the Second Homes Act applies and new second homes are no longer approved. For existing apartments, it then depends on when they were approved and what is noted in the land register. In many places in the Bernese Oberland the share is well above that:

Source: housing inventory of the Federal Office for Spatial Development, as of October 2026. Even where the act does not apply, municipalities may have their own rules. Each municipality also sets its own tourist tax, with its own rates and often a flat fee for owners who use their apartment themselves. On top of that, the cantonal accommodation levy of CHF 1.00 per person and night from age 16 applies throughout the canton of Bern. We clarify what applies at your address with our location review.

Frequently asked questions about letting in the Bernese Oberland

Where in the Bernese Oberland do you let holiday apartments?

Throughout the Bernese Oberland, from Lake Thun via the Diemtigtal and the Frutigland to Grindelwald and the Haslital. Our staff are spread across the region, including in Interlaken, Spiez, Frutigen, the Diemtigtal, Brienz, Kandersteg and Adelboden.

Who cleans and looks after my apartment in the Bernese Oberland?

Our own staff from the region. We organise cleaning and laundry completely; the laundry goes to our own laundry in Wimmis. We also take care of guests' requests during their stay.

May I let my holiday apartment in the Bernese Oberland?

That depends on the municipality and the age of the apartment. In municipalities with more than 20 percent second homes, the Second Homes Act applies: apartments under the old law, which already existed or had been approved on 11 March 2012, may be let unless the canton or municipality provides otherwise. For newer apartments, the restriction of use in the land register decides. We clarify this for your address with our location review.

How high is the tourist tax in the Bernese Oberland?

Each municipality sets its own tourist tax, for example CHF 4.20 per person and night in Grindelwald, CHF 4.20 in Adelboden, CHF 3.60 in Kandersteg, CHF 3.50 in Spiez and CHF 2.50 in Interlaken in summer. On top of that comes the cantonal accommodation levy of CHF 1.00 from age 16. We take care of registering the stays and of tourist tax management for you.
