Guest reviews for Oxgården
"Great location. Set up well for families. Friendly staff."
"Aucun."
"We loved the stay and staff was super friendly, great place to stay with kids and just walking distance from Astrid Lindgren wårld."
"The beds for the kids creaked really loud."
"The location is perfect for visiting Astrid Lindgrens Värld and Näs. It's also nice to go on trips in the area. Oxgården itself with the shared garden is nice. My kids made great friends and I met great people. It's nice to bring people together. We were there in the middle of August and besides many nice Swedes there were several German families and one from Austria. Many only stay for a day or two, though. The cabin was big enough for us and it had everything from fridge to shower. On request at the reception they also washed and dried our clothes. I booked last minute which gave us a nice discount."
"You can tell that everything is 20 years old by now, but they do a good job cleaning. The fridge missed a few parts, but it was clean. It doesn't have a freezer. It was not entirely clear when they serve food and drinks, especially when the end of August comes near. So be sure to ask in advance. The buffet was good, though."
"Great concept and location - short walk from Astrid Lindgren's World..."
"Nothing major - showers could have been a little warmer but weren't insufferable..."
"Nice location, 10 mins walk from Astrid Lindgren’s World. Booked a cabin with 2 bed rooms. Enough for two families of 2 adults and 2 kids. The dinner buffet is quite good. A mix of freshly made Thai food and pizza. 3 different Thai dishes, 3 different pizza flavours. Breakfast basket is also good, with buns, cheese, jam, butter, black coffee, milk, yoghurt and müsli."
"It was quite warm in bedroom"
"It's very close to Astrid Lindgrens Värld and Näs, i.e. in walking distance, and you can reach the center of Vimmerby easily. The staff was very nice. It was no problem to extend the stay by another day. This is probably different in the high season. Even in the low season on Friday and Saturday almost all cottages were occupied. We used the grill place a couple of times, which is nice in this complex. The cottages are not new anymore, but still good."
"On arrival nobody was present, which also happened to a couple of other visitors we met. Had to call numerous times until I gained access to the booked cottage. The upper floor gets quite warm even during the night, and the AC does not help too much with that, because it does not blow upwards and there is no window that you can open on the upper level."
"Beautiful houses and really well suited for families visiting Vimnerby and Astrid Lindgrens Värld!"
"Aucun."

"Lovely breakfast with homemade bread, delicius. Beautiful houses and seaside view. Very friendly staff. The room was simple but comfortable with an extra heater in it."
"Die Lage des Hauses ist besonders vorteilhaft: nah an Ystad (10 Min. ins Zentrum) und an der Küste (4 Min.), dabei kaum Bebauung in der Nachbarschaft, extrem ruhige Umgebung und trotz Durchgangsstraße kaum merklicher Verkehr. Das Haus selbst ist sehr geräumig und bietet einer Familie mit Kindern genügend Raum. Besonders schön ist die abgeschirmte Südterrasse mit einem weiträumigen Blick über Felder und Wald mit Hasen und Rehen. TV mit nationalen Kanälen und BBC News war ausreichend, um im Urlaub etwas informiert zu bleiben, außerdem lief das Internet stabil."
"I loved the local decor and history behind the room I stayed in! Checking in and out was both easy and the breakfast was excellent! They were also kind enough to upgrade my room to a bigger one all on their own!I can't wait to visit again!"

John Continental du Sud
"A beautiful small hotel that includes a delicious breakfast. The host is engaging and friendly. It’s in a great location with easy walking to the city center. Parking is just down the street and is inexpensive. The part we really enjoyed was the garden where we drank wine and shared a simple meal from local stores after a day biking to Ales Stenar."
