Chalet Engelberg

Wir, 13 Erwachsenen plus Kleinkind, haben die Woche in Engelberg genossen. Das Haus war eine gute Ausgangslage fèr Skifahren, Langlaufen, joggen und bummeln in der Stadt.

John and Jacqueline were very thoughtful and helpful in assisting us not only prepare for our stay but also during our stay, especially with lifts to and from the house, from the station, delivery of food and local knowledge, (thanks John).

The house its-self has beautiful views and was well-equipped for the nine of our family who stayed. Especially nice was the log fire around which we gathered on the cold winter evenings over Christmas time during our stay.

Words cannot express how much we enjoyed and appreciated this place and our hosts. John and Jacqueline could write on book on how to be excellent hosts - they were helpful and offered many tips on the area but even beyond this they often gave us rides into town, even getting up at 5 in the morning to take one family to the train station as the taxi was not available that early.

The house was spacious, well equipped for anything (even with four rambunctious children) and the views were spectacular. I hope we will be back at some point, it was everything we wanted and much more. Thank you Jacqueline and John!

We stayed at Eugenia House for two weeks in July. The property offers everything you need, several large bedrooms (more than enough to easily sleep our party of 8) several bathrooms with showers/bath (you don't need to share on your holiday) and a well stocked kitchen with dishwasher.

The location is slightly elevated at the beginning of Engelberg and therefore the views of Titlis and the surrounding areas are stunning to say the least.

For kids, the house also has a projection room with a playstation (with netflix, youtube and so on) but the surrounding grassland with goats as well as the variety of things to do outside in Engelberg meant that this was not used much during our stay. Both Jacqueline and John welcomed us and showed us around during our arrival and they were ready to help and respond to any questions or requests at any time during our stay. They could not have been nicer.

The centre of the town of Engelberg is situated about a 10 minute walk away with ample supermarkets and shops and with it being a tourism town, most restaurants and shops speak English.

A fine holiday at an amazing location. Would highly recommend it, especially if like us your home is in a busy city on the other side of the world.

Thanks again for an amazing stay!

First, john and his wife were perfect hosts. We cant thank them enough for their kindness, hospitality, friendly conversations, and rides to town for grocery shopping and to transport a few of our guests with disabilities.

Comfortable, clean, well equipped home large enough to fit our family of 12! We had plenty of bathrooms, showers, and seating throughout to accommodate our large group.

Kitchen has more than enough of everything, a dishwasher, large cooktop, microwave, coffee maker, and even a few spices along with ziplock bags and foil. Large fridge, with secondary overfill fridge and freezer. Projection screen for late night TV watching if desired. The kids were able to use Netflix even!

We loved and appreciated John immensely with his helping prepare a memorable fondue dinner one evening!

Every window in the home has majestic views.

The beds were comfortable. The washing machine worked just fine to wash a load of kids clothes. Fresh towels were provided. Basically, anything needed to be comfortable was provided.

Overall, we loved our stay and would come back any time if we find ourselves able to visit switzerland again. Thank you a million times for a perfect homebase for our family holiday!!

Greg Jamie, and the rest of us!
