The Kraft Family

 

We have found that many of our friends in the US are interested in and curious about visiting Germany too, but only a few of them have actually done it. Why? Because they don’t know where to stay, what to do, or how to deal with the differences in language in culture.

 

We immigrated in 1997 to the US, and now live in the San Francisco Bay Area. As native Germans, we still have lots of family and friends in Germany and go there at least once a year for a few weeks to visit them and to help our kids to learn and experience the German language and culture.  

This is when we had the idea:


“Wouldn’t it be nice if we can help visitors from all over the world to experience Germany in a different, more personal way, and make it easy for them to do so?”


To do this, we connect you to comfortable places to stay and work with property owners in Germany to continuously expand our coverage of high quality vacation rentals. Some of the vacation apartment places we own ourselves. Our focus is on providing you with a nice, clean, comfortable, and beautiful apartment for your Germany vacation.

We can help you discover Germany


We also provide guidance and advice on where to go and what to do, and help with planning a stay in Germany. In addition, we provide a personal telephone “hotline” so you will always have a local expert at your disposal in case you have questions, need help making reservations, or simply if there is a language barrier that is in the way. We can also help you find extra services, for example arranging a local tour guide to show you around and provide you with insider tips.


We hope this will spark your interest and that we can help you discover Germany soon -- in a unique way.

Why should you stay at our places when you visit Germany?


There are many Germany vacation packages available for your trip to Germany. There are apartment rentals, vacation rentals, and Germany travel sites to chose from for your vacation in Germany. So what makes our offer different and special?

  2. 2.We are highly selective and only offer apartments that adhere to our stringent quality standards. We directly work with the owners when there are problems so that you don’t have to worry about language barriers.

  3. 3.We focus on your needs and will work with you to make your vacation very unique and personalized.

  4. 4.We continue to stay in touch with you before, during, and after your vacation. We want to address any questions, so we’ll give you a personal telephone hotline to use. You can rely on us. In case a problem does come up (e.g., problem with appliances, heating, or other issues), we will directly coordinate with the owner of the property to resolve the problem.

  5. 5.There are many German vacation rental sites available, but we offer a package of options and services that are difficult to match or even found elsewhere.
