Staying in Portalban
Portalban is a former fishing village on the southern shore of Lake Neuchâtel, nestled between the beach, the marina and the Fribourg countryside. The shore is bordered by the Grande Cariçaie, Switzerland’s largest lake marshland area, a paradise for birdwatchers and cyclists.
Our accommodation there is managed under the Cari'Stay brand: holiday homes and flats just a few minutes’ walk from the water, perfect for a family summer holiday or a peaceful weekend away.

Is Portalban suitable for use outside the summer months?
Yes, to put it another way: mist over the lake, migratory birds in the nature reserves, cycling along deserted shores and historic towns nearby. It’s a place for rest rather than hustle and bustle.
How far away are Neuchâtel, Fribourg and Bern?
Neuchâtel is just across the river, about 30 minutes’ drive away via the Sauge Bridge or by boat in the summer. Fribourg is about 30 minutes away, and Bern about 45 minutes.
