Dear Philipp,
Thank you so much for your lovely words! We'rehappy to hear that you enjoyed your stay and had such a great time exploring the beautiful Ticino and the fantastic lake. It’s wonderful to know the house and garden met your expectations, and we’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to our housekeeping team.
We hope to welcome you back again soon!

gorgeous views with easy check-in experience. Very clean and tidy.
The check-in experience was easy. Very responsive and helpful staff. Our accommodations were very clean and we had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. The view is stunning. If you are not an early riser in the morning, the only thing that is a negative about this place is the street noise. It is rather loud. we were up and going by 9 AM and after a few days, it didn’t bother us as much. But the street noise starts around 7 AM. If you have the windows closed it probably wouldn’t be as loud but it’s noticeable. The location is hard to beat with just a few minutes walk to the ferry and grocery stores to pick up what you need as well as restaurants. If you use more than one towel during your stay, you will need to request extra towels, and there is a charge for those.

Dear guest,
Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review. We’re delighted to hear that you found the check-in process smooth and our team responsive and helpful. It's great to know that you had everything you needed for a comfortable stay and that you enjoyed the cleanliness and stunning view!
We appreciate your feedback regarding the street noise. Being in a central location does come with some activity, especially in the mornings, but we're glad it became less of a concern during your stay. Closing the windows can indeed help reduce the noise for lighter sleepers.
Thank you also for mentioning the towel policy—we always strive to be transparent about additional services and are happy to provide extra towels upon request for a small fee.
We truly hope to welcome you again in the future!
Kind regards,

Happy Rentals did a wonderful job
We rented a holiday house for Easter in Lugano. The original property we booked became unavailable and the Happy Rentals team offered an excellent alternative at no additional cost and we had a wonderful stay. Their communication before we arrived was very efficient and helpful.

Outstanding hospitality experience in Tuscany
The house was very well-maintained and tastefully furnished, equipped with everything necessary for a pleasant and relaxing holiday. Detailed instructions were shared in advance via WhatsApp, leaving no doubts or unanswered questions about the holiday home.
Happ Rentals was also very diligent in providing information and ensuring our well-being. They maintained contact throughout our stay.
We felt very well taken care of and are grateful for the outstanding hospitality we experienced.

We had a fantastic stay at the Happy Rentals in Viareggio!
We had a fantastic stay at the Happy Rentals apartment in Viareggio! The location is absolutely perfect—just a short walk to the beach, shops, restaurants, and everything else you might need. The apartment itself is spacious, clean, and very well-equipped with everything you could possibly want for a comfortable and relaxing stay. It felt like a home away from home.
We especially appreciated how quiet the neighborhood was at night, yet everything was still within easy reach. Whether you’re planning to spend your days on the beach or explore the surrounding area, this apartment is a great base.
What made the experience even better was the excellent support from the Happy Rentals team. The staff were friendly, responsive, and extremely helpful from the moment we booked until check-out. Their assistance made everything easy and stress-free.
Highly recommended, and we would absolutely stay here again!

Dishonourable and irresponsible
Dishonourable and irresponsible. Booked an apartment in Livigno and it was confirmed and they even asked for credit card payment and lots of communication in-between to confirm my reservation. We booked our flight and the next day they message to inform me that the apartment was advertised wrongly and they wanted to cancel my booking. I already booked my flight because I thought I secured the apartment and now they just cancelled it on me when and they claimed that the price was wrong. They would not pay for my trip cancellation charges and would not honour my booking. This is making the customer pay for their mistakes as we would have considered somewhere else if not for this apartment booking. Lack integrity, dishonourable and irresponsible.
Clearly, their reply here just shy away from responsibility. There were so many messages after that asking for payment which I gave my card details and accounts department confirming it. I bought the air ticket because I thought I found somewhere reasonable, even if it’s a year away. I would not have chose this destination if not for this accomodation. They do not want to take responder their mistakes and made the customer pay for it! Happy rental, no way!

Dear Serene,
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We truly regret the frustration and inconvenience this situation has caused you.
We would like to clarify that your reservation was made late in the evening on April 18th for a stay starting on April 11th of the following year (2026). Shortly after receiving the booking, we identified a technical error in the listing caused by a server issue, which unfortunately resulted in incorrect pricing and availability being displayed.
We completely understand your disappointment. However, as this was due to a genuine system error and no payment was taken, we were unfortunately not in a position to honour the incorrect rate or assume the cost of travel changes.
That said, as your intended arrival date is still nearly a year away, we sincerely hope you will have ample time to find a suitable alternative that meets your needs and expectations.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you all the best in your future travels.
Kind regards,
Happy Rentals Team
We stayed at a happy Rental property in San Margarite, Italy
SAY NO TO HAPPY RENTALS! First, we discovered a large dead bird caught in a dusty tarp left on the couch (had this apt been cleaned since last season?and oof, the stench) and discovered no power after returning from a long day of exploration. They tried to blame us, saying we had too much plugged in but we were gone ALL day. There is NO local support from HR. We had to dispose of the dead bird ourselves, it sat outside the home in a bucket our entire stay. We had to scrounge around the apt building in the dark, dealing with electric boxes for over an hour to turn power on. This was aggravating as well as dangerous. We left a day early and HR refused to compensate us for our troubles. Oh, and the apt itself is cheaply updated, don't let the photos fool you. This house was expensive, NOT worth it. Other travel services bend over backwards to make you feel comfortable. Choose the alternatives!

Dear Kindall,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're genuinely sorry to hear that your experience at Sea View Terrace in Santa Margherita did not meet your expectations, and we regret that your stay was impacted by these issues.
We would like to clarify a few important points:
Our local team was in direct contact with you and responded promptly to assist with the electricity issue. Power outages happen at times in Italy, but clear video and photo instructions were provided to help restore the power safely, and we were assured the issue was resolved quickly. The brief sound of the alarm was a normal part of the reset process and stopped automatically, as designed.
We’re really sorry you found yourselves navigating the dark like amateur electricians. Definitely not the kind of immersive experience we aim for, but part of the unknown adventure when travelling.
Regarding the unfortunate report of a dead bird, we were not informed of this during your stay with supporting photos, which made it difficult for us to assess or address the situation properly.
We strive to offer attentive local support, and we're sorry to hear you felt otherwise. While compensation was not issued in this case, we did do our best to provide timely assistance throughout your stay.
We hope your next adventure includes more pasta and less power panels!
Kind regards,
Happy Rentals Team

Super helpful and efficient
Happy Rentals sent clear and concise information. The apartment was as advertised, had everything we needed for our stay. It was close enough to centre of village to reach restaurants in 5mins and lift in 10 at most, but also far enough away from any noise in the centre. Sauze is a lovely village, with enough going on to keep you busy every night, but not too crazy that you can’t share experience with family. We felt safe, all locals very friendly. Our host replied to messages almost immediately and was so helpful. I’ll use this company again for sure!

Lovely ski week in Chamonix Valley.
My family stayed in a condominium apartment in the Chamonix Valley in March 2025. The apartment was exactly as depicted online at Expedia. Happy Rentals has several offices in the valley, including one just a five minute walk from our apartment. It was convenient on two occasions to visit the office for inquiries.

Perfect Spot in Sauze D’Oulx!
Perfect Spot in Sauze D’Oulx!
We had a fantastic stay here! The location is spot on—just a short walk to the chair lifts, which made getting on the slopes super easy. Plus, there are loads of great restaurants and bars nearby, so we never had to go far for a good meal or après-ski drink.
The apartment was really well-equipped with everything we needed, clean, cozy, and a great place to relax after a day in the mountains. The hosts were awesome—really friendly, helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed. Shout out to Ilona!
Would 100% stay here again—highly recommend!

Great stay in Sauze d'Oulx, Italy
We stayed in Italy/Sauze d'Oulx and had a pleasant stay! The private appartment was small but since we were skiing all day and ate dinner at the local restaurants, we mostly needed it for sleeping. Location was great: close to center but still away from all the after-ski noise. We were actually the only ones in the whole building so it was really quiet! The village is awesome and beautiful! We had some issues with warming but the local office helped us immediately and everything went smoothly. The double bed is a sofa bed but it was surprisingly good and we slept well. The floors are quite cold in the winter, some extra shoes or crocs would've been useful. Also a door mat for dirty shoes inside the appartment could be good to protect the floors. Eco tip: recycling was made very easy in the village. The appartment has no different bins for different type of waste but we did our best!
