“A great find on the internet … it is everything it says on the site and more !
We will never forget the view … what a way to wake each day.
It’s going to be sad to leave.”

Stephen Madge ENGLAND

“The most beautiful place I've ever been!”

Diane Sanderson IRELAND

“Alphaven appears to be suspended above the valley
and the view … is truly awe inspiring. A beautiful apartment in a beautiful location. We look forward to returning soon!”

The Homers ENGLAND

“When we came across your internet site, we knew that the apartment and it’s location in Engelberg were going to be special. However, the website didn’t quite capture how spectacular the views are from this perfect focal point. The apartment itself, wonderfully spacious and bright, coupled with the exposed timber sloping roofs and wooden floors makes for a roomy, yet cosy haven …. we are very keen to return to experience the location as a winter resort
Thanks for a great 7 days !”

Susie and Robbie SCOTLAND

“It’s hard to imagine a more spectacular place to Ski or a town with more open & friendly people. Thank God the tourists haven’t over-run this town yet!

Alphaven is if possible, even better than we thought it would be. It is rare, but so gratifying, when all of your expectations are totally exceeded … & that is what happened here.

Ursula, you are a rare & generous person and we are privileged tp have met you and enjoyed your company.”

Karl, Ro, Chelsea, D’Arcy, Juole & Roanne Scott AUSTRALIA

“It’s funny and nearly scary, how this home, a real masterpiece of architecture, makes you feel like home. That combined with the breathtaking scenery, unique nature and friendly and genuine locals made our holiday perfect. Thank you !”

“Alphaven far exceeded any expectations we may have had. We arrived to a perfect night view of Engelberg and awoke to an even more breathtaking view of the town bathed in sunshine.

The Skiing was excellent … but there was nothing nicer than returning to the beautiful apartment to relax for the evening. The apartment was so well equipped and cosy that there was no desire to go and enjoy some “après ski” in the town.

Thank you Ursula for all you provided to make our holiday such a memorable one. We are all returning to Scotland with many special memories which we shall cherish forever. With our love and best wishes.”

Chris, Alison, Caitlin, and David Tiemessen SCOTLAND

“Relaxing – enjoy the amazing view from the balcony … you’ll never forget it!

This will surely remain one of our greatest holidays.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you !”

Julia, Galina, Susanna FINLAND & Dimitri LUXEMBOURG

“This place was truly amazing, not just the apartment but all of it’s surroundings. It opened up a lot of views for me as well as the rest of my family. The week we stayed here was overwhelming and I’m honestly sad to leave, since being here has made me the happiest I’ve been in a long time.
It’s not about the things you have in life, those don’t matter in the long run, it’s what you do that makes the difference. Thank you for everything.”

Love The Tylers UNITED STATES

“In Alphaven and Engelberg, we have found everything we had hoped for … and more! A heavenly environment in which to recuperate when our bodies couldn’t take the pace … spectacular views that made getting out of bed even harder than usual … and an endless selection of fabulous memories.

Waist deep powder … and a priceless journey home through untracked fields escorted by the moon rising in a flawless pink sky and miraculously …
we actually found the house too !!

John & Ursula, thank you for creating a truly magical gateway to this very special area. We leave with so many things still to be done, we wouldn’t hesitate to return. With grateful thanks for a fabulous holiday and sharing your wonderful home.”

“We wanted to say a massive thank you to you both for such a glorious holiday we experienced at Alphaven.

Your apartment is simply stunning and we trust that we left it in perfect condition as the day we arrived.

We were enthralled and mesmerized by the views and may I say we both have rather sore muscles from the hiking albeit we now feel fabulous!!!!!

So many thanks again and we intend to return soon”.

“The end of a great week … made the right decision to top the Titlis early on in superb weather. Enjoyed the easy walking around Trubsee and after a breathtaking cable car – Furenalp! … and what an apartment! … a real credit to Ursula & John and their vision – great site, unbeatable view and quality fittings.

All in all, an awesome country – we’ll be back.
Many, many thanks”

Neil, Barbara, Sarah and Michael Watt SCOTLAND

“Fab location, Fab Apartments, Wonderful holiday and even better company”

Eleanor Will Duncan Julie ENGLAND

“Thank you for opening your home to us … your website is a great advertisement for Apartment C and Engelberg & our expectations were exceeded, a photo can’t convey quite how spectacular the view is from every room … and we found all the facilities in the apartment excellent.

We enjoyed a range of activities – Snow Tubing, Paragliding, Shopping and great Hiking … the inbetween season really gave us a taste of both Winter & Summer activities and we probably only scratched the surface … it was great to wake up on our first morning to a fresh snowfall and then later in our week enjoy “balmy” weather. We will be recommending the location and your apartments to our friends, Thank you again!”

Ray, Gay, David, Elizabeth & Jonathan Graetz AUSTRALIA

“We leave with greatest gratitude for a wonderful holiday at Alphaven.
Sun, Snow, Fog … all came together to provide us with beauty beyond measure and an experience too wonderful to express in words.

The wild flowers, mountains and visit to Titlis (Rotair) etc. give us memories to treasure for ever.

Thank you Ursula & John”
