"Beautiful place great staff very friendly and approachable. We came here 3 times over our 4 day stay at Brienz. We felt very safe to leave our stuff on the beach. We rented two paddle boards for half a day and our stuff has been untouched. Although I would always recommend using a waterproof bag for your phone and keys. This is great for children and adults I would highly recommend this place. The prices are reasonable."
Emma Clarke
"Very clean public facility within walking distance of ferry and train service. Beautiful views all around. There are diving boards and a grassy area to relax with shade trees if preferred to full sun. Bathrooms and changing rooms also very clean. There's a really nice restaurant or take-out food as well as ice-cream. The water is so nice!! We visited end of August."
