Villas in Schöna

We absolutely LOVED this place. If you’re looking for seclusion, to be in nature, and have access to the Swiss Bohemian Park trails then this place is perfect. It’s impeccably decorated with rustic antique furniture and stays relatively cool even on a hot summers day. The large balcony is a perfect place to have a morning cup of coffee or evening glass of wine and enjoy the peace and quiet of nature. I briefly met Heike who was extremely friendly and allowed us to check in early. Overall it exceeded our expectations and we would love to come back.

We had a wonderful stay! The location of the house is impeccable -- right at the foot of a hiking trail, with bus stop out front, 10mins walk from ferry and Schmilka, 10mins drive to the neighbouring spa town of Bad Schandau. The home is clean, well kept, and thoughtfully equipped with everything you might need, including thoughtful touches like towels. We were a fairly large group (5+), and never felt crowded or like there was nowhere to sit. The kitchen had everything we needed, with lots of space and surfaces for food preparation. The bedrooms are sizeable, with comfortable beds, square pillows, and tons of storage. There is a little balcony area out back that would be wonderful in summer. The living room and kitchen have big windows overlooking the Elbe, with sun streaming in in the morning. There is lots of artwork, photographs and articles depicting the history of Saxony, showing a deep love of the area. I only wish we could have met the host, to learn more about this beautiful, historic place! The host was otherwise always in quick, clear communication, very kind, and accommodating of my poor German skills. Thank you so much for the opportunity to stay and have this magical experience in Schmilka! P.S. Light sleepers will want to pack earplugs, as the house is next to the street and there are lots of beautiful birds in the area who like to sing early in the morning. ;)

- amazing and thoughtful host who would go an extra extra mile to make you feel welcome - when we entered the house we saw a decorated Christmas tree with gifts under the tree and a traditional cake, complimentary bottles of champagne and fresh strawberries in the fridge with an extra stash of water - the house is so cozy and warm with a beautifully decorated living room with a fireplace and a big table where the whole family can gather and play - clean and comfortable beds - tastefully picked accessories like shampoo and soap - outdoor terrace with a grill and a set of garden furniture - beautiful view on the river Tereza, thank you for having us. I wish you and your family joy, peace and love in the new year!

The host was very accessible and pleasant to communicate with. The villa is just beautiful. It is very tastefully decorated. It is spacious. It's just perfect for a long stay. The kitchen is very well equipped.
