My Spouse and I are Canadians (from Montreal), this was our first time in Switzerland. Since the both of us are more urban people, we wanted to spend the last part of our trip somewhere up in a mountain (where it’s isolated and really quiet), but in an area that would be central enough to do day trips around the French part of Switzerland. We picked the area of Gstaad for our search and Moriya’s house clearly stood out from the pack. Finding the house was a bit tricky, but in hindsight the written instructions given by the Host were clear, we were just tired and it had been a really long day. The Mother of one of the Hosts was waiting for us at the house and by phone she quickly steered us in the right direction. She turned out to be funny and energetic and she made us feel really welcome. She also went out of her way to help us with a little problem we had upon arrival, that was really nice of her. A bottle of red wine was left for us, that was another nice welcoming gesture. The house was huge and the layout was open and functional, everything was clean and tidy, amenities were plentiful. The view and the landscape were also more spectacular than we were hoping for as we we’re situated much higher up the mountain than we had expected. The environment was really quiet, we were in the middle of nature and high up the mountain, we were happy. Our only regret is not spending more time relaxing in the house or it’s surroundings, unfortunately we had too many day trips planned out. Thank you Moriya and Ira (and Didi too!), we had a great time in your beautiful house!
