About this apartment rental
What about a seafront suite that has a view of the Oslo Fiord, the islands surrounding Oslo, the city itself, and the famous Holmenkollen ski jump? From which you can step out on the balcony to enjoy a sundowner? Or venture into the garden and dip into the Oslo fiord in the summer season?
We are lucky enough to live in this great spot, right on the water, inside the city of Oslo, only 12 minutes by bus or car from the new Oslo Operahouse and the rest of the downtown area. We are happy to share this space with others, and rent out a suite on the house's first floor. The entire floor is at your disposal, and contains,
- a sitting room with a sleeper sofa,
- two bedrooms,
- a bath and
- a toilet.
Your sitting room is 20 square meters and furnished with a sofa, a sleeper sofa, a table and two chairs; a TV and DVD player; loudspeakers; and a refrigerator, microwave oven, waterboiler and coffee maker.
From the sitting room there is direct access to a private balcony.
There are two bedrooms (one large and one smaller), each with comfortable double beds.
There is a separate toilet and bathroom, the latter fitted with a bath tub. Fresh towels are provided.
The place is ideal for one, two, three or four persons. If there is a fifth person, the sitting room is equipped with a sleeper sofa.
Free wireless internet.
Excellent opportunities for walking, jogging, running and fishing close to the house.
A full Norwegian breakfast can be served (NOK 100 pp). If you wish, we can also take care of your laundry for a small fee.
We speak the three Scandinavian languages + English, German, Spanish and Swahili.
Our guests have access to our beautiful garden and the deck by the fjord.

This was an absolutely amazing place to stay. The property was gorgeous, the views and access to the fjord were perfect. A very comfortable setup, everything from the bathroom to the bedrooms to the living area and kitchen were all top notch. The bus literally stops right outside the entrance to the property, super convenient. Hosts provided plenty of towels and other staples as well as water shoes for dips into the fjord. It had somewhat of a bed & breakfast feel in that the hosts were onsite and provided turn down service while we were out (which was somewhat unexpected, but still pleasant). If your top concern is privacy, this may not be the best spot for you. However, if you enjoy interacting with hosts (who are wonderfully polite and charming) this is the perfect spot for a visit to Oslo. Seriously, you can't truly understand how amazing the view is until you stay here.

What a wonderful property. Couldn’t be happier with the comfort, cleanliness and decor of accommodations, fjord view and swim platform, pristine grounds, ease of commute to city center, and wonderful guidance from onsite owners/hosts. Perfect location for those looking to chill while visiting Oslo.

Very nice apartment. Well-kept, beautifully and practically furnished. Direct access to the fjord. Friendly hosts. Free parking in side street directly opposite. Small drawback: busy road nearby. All in all, it was a relaxing stay.

Our stay in Oslo was our 8th and final stop, and easily raced to the top of our favorites! It is hard to say what we liked the most--the view, the accommodations, the hosts and their thoughtful touches, or the reprieve from the hustle/bustle of Oslo's city center. While the location was too far to walk to the city center (and mind you, we were clocking 6-10 miles a day in other cities!), the bus couldn't have been quicker or more convenient. Oslo was an amazing city to explore, but there was nothing like returning "home" to enjoy our welcomed and remarkable view of the fjord!

We felt very well in your apartment. The rooms are furnished tastefully and suitable. The stunning view from the balcony and the jetty with access to the Oslo fjord made an excellent and unsurpassable impression on us. Thanks to the bus stop right in front of the house, the city is very easy to reach by public transport. The friendly hosts took great care of our welfare. Thank you for the nice time.

We had a wonderful time in Oslo. The apartment was very nice; well equipped and very tidy. The owners provided a warm welcome and great hospitality. They let us use their bathing jetty so we could swim in the Oslo Fjord, which was great! By bus, Oslo is near. Altogether a great stay.

Truls was very welcoming and helpful (Kåre was out of town). The property is just like the pictures, very clean, and steps away from a bus stop. The view is breathtaking! Thank you for a great stay!

Cozy Suite with Gorgeous Views!
We really enjoyed our 2-night stay at this cozy suite in southern Oslo. It had an amazing view of the Oslo Fjord and watching the sunset was a great way to end the day (although it doesn’t really get dark outside in the summer). It was located near a bus stop which took us directly to downtown. Truels was very helpful with giving us recommendations of things to do and places to visit. We wish we had more time to enjoy the backyard and the area down by the dock.
It should be noted that the suite just has a microwave and small refrigerator, so it does not lend itself to cooking meals, and there are really no places to eat within walking distance. It is recommended to eat in downtown Oslo before heading back to suite since there are a lot of good, though expensive, restaurants in the city.
Also, the suite is right beside a pretty busy road and since there is no air conditioning in the suite (as with most of Scandinavia), you can hear the steady flow of trucks and buses through the open windows. Also, if you are driving a car, the parking is across the busy road for the house since it nearly impossible to pull into and out of the gated space right beside the house.
All in all, it was a nice place for our family of four to stay a few nights while visiting Oslo, but would have been tight to stay for a longer time. The owners also rent a cottage down near the water at same property, so that may be a better option if you'd like more room.

Kåre & Truls are wonderful hosts to an outstanding property! The views! And swimming off the dock was amazing. There is a bus stop at the top of the property so traveling in to town couldn’t be easier. We loved it, it was perfect for our family. :-)

Great location. Great Hosts.
Stairs are a bit of a challenge with large bags or bad knees.

Unforgettable!
Lovely stay at Truls's and Kare's flat. They thought of everything to make our stay perfect! Loved spending our evenings on the terrace enjoying the view and dipping in the water. Highly recommend!

Fantastic!
My 2 sons and I were travelling together. This flat was awesome! My 2 sons both loved it - in fact they would like to move there! My only regret is that we didn't get to meet Truls and Kare in person. The flat is completely private. Beautiful views. And a bus stop is less than 25 meters away. Very convenient to explore Oslo!!!!! Thank you!

I was there for a few days but wish it could have been more. It was ideal having a bus stop right next to the property. You can get into Oslo easily and from there go wherever.Apartment is ideal for a couple or small family.
