Best Airbnbs in Amager

Why stay in Amager?

Once (unfairly, if you ask us) maligned, Amager is having a renaissance of sorts. Yes, it’s a separate island from the rest of Copenhagen, but the numerous bridges and public transport that connects the island to the city make that a non-isssue. Part of Amager is the very cool Islands Brygge, where you’ll find cafes, restaurants, and the gorgeous waterside promenade. The rest of Amager has its own charm – there’s Amager Strand – where you can have a day at the beach (and yes, it’s a great beach!), Amagerbro, where there are lots of cafes, shops, and general buzziness, and Amager Fælled, where you can take a long walk in nature and pet some sheep!
