Waterfront holiday rentals in Houten

Truly a 5 star experience. Rob met us at the front door (a rare experience these days on Airbnb) and showed us the space. He was knowledgeable of the area and always available to answer questions. Genuinely a lovely person. 10/10

Excellent place! i had a great stay. Hosts were very helpful

We loved our time in this artsy, welcoming and charming little spot! Lex and Sylvie were very responsive and helpful, checking in and also leaving some great nibbles in the kitchen (fruit, juice, yogurt, cheese, jam, butter and much more!) They also gave us a heads up about the Utrecht Pride event, which is not to be missed if you can be there for it. The boat parade goes right down the lovely canal right outside the door. We loved walking around the neighborhood, with great restaurants and bakeries. The apartment was the perfect space for our two adults and one teen and we took advantage of sitting out front along the canal every single day. It’s an older building and you can hear the floorboards upstairs but it was never an issue for sleeping because Lex and Sylvie didn’t seem to be night owls. I would love to come back someday!

Daniel’s place in Utrecht was perfect! The apartment was clean, cozy, and well-located, making it easy to explore the city. Daniel was a fantastic host, providing clear communication. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Utrecht!

The apartment was lovely and cozy, with plenty of useful amenities that made our stay comfortable. The host was very kind and responsive, which we really appreciated. Overall, the place was clean and well-maintained, though the bedsheets could use a refresh. The beds are very soft (something to keep in mind depending on your preference). Despite these minor points, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back again!

Such a lovely place in a beautiful location of Utrecht! Cor is a wonderful host, friendly and helpful. Warmly recommended!

Apartment is just as advertised and is in a great location. Would recommend this.

We stayed in the apartment for 3 nights and felt very comfortable right from the start. The apartment has a nice balcony with large windows. It was generally very quiet and we slept very well. Everything was in a very clean condition, as previously described in the photos and text. Check-in and check-out was very easy and flexible. Maurits responded quickly and friendly to messages. Thank you very much for this really nice stay in Utrecht! Definitely to be recommended.

We had a fantastic stay! The house and surroundings are beautiful! Marlieke and family are fantastic hosts. The house was stocked with everything you can think of and more, including drinks, snacks, cooking essentials, toiletries. They thought of everything! Marlieke provided toys and a play kitchen for our 1 year old, which he loved! We were so grateful! The place was very clean. Great communication from Marlieke before and during the stay. Excellent local recommendations provided also. We would love to come back and stay again. Highly recommend to other guests!

Evelien's place is perfectly located right next to a gorgeous park but only 15 mins walk into the centre of Utrecht. The house was clean, comfortable and very nicely decorated. Evelien has provided a book with lots of recommendations for places to eat and things to do which was really useful. We arrived by bike and there was a secure, covered place for us to store them. Would definitely stay here again.

This apartment was beautiful and clearly a lot of care and design had gone into it. It was very clean and in a great location to discover Utrecht. Oscar and Barbara were lovely, friendly and helpful. Would recommend!

Great house. We felt very comfortable all around. Nice, uncomplicated landlady. House very clean and spacious. Everything as described with large, open living / dining area and upstairs the 3 bedrooms with 2 bathrooms (1 en suite). We didn't miss anything and we would love to come back.

This place is perfect, downtown was a 20 minute bike ride with access to shops and restaurants. You are walking distance to grocery stores! Also, it was a 15-20 bike to the train or you could pick up a bus at the end of the street that could take you anywhere. We also rented a car and there were charging stations a few houses down and plenty of free parking. It was quaint and quiet and had the most private and adorable patio / backyard. The interior was spacious, comfortable and clean! Len was an excellent host, she was easy to communicate with and extremely helpful. I would highly recommend this place to anyone! 🥰

We were 6 people for two nights in this fantastically beautiful accommodation. The space is completely sufficient, with a large living area and 2 extra separate sleeping berths with double beds. The house is very special and an absolute highlight. In addition, the landlords are extremely helpful and nice. Thank you for the wonderful time we were able to spend with you :) we will definitely come back again

Would love to come back, beautiful house!

We cannot say enough about Aan de Snel. It is idyllic and like nothing we have ever experienced in the US. The home is pristine with everything a family needs. The decor is tasteful and cozy. The outdoor area is wonderful for watching the horses and bunnies. We really loved taking the bikes into the village, the fort, and to the lake. We could not get over the warmth and kindness of not only our hosts, but the Dutch in general. The restaurant in town is excellent (went twice). The location allowed us to visit a great deal of the Netherlands, including Gouda, Castel de Haar, Muiderslot, Amersfoort. At the hosts, suggestion, we took the train into Utrecht which was super easy! We will come back to NL and visit all the things we missed. This home is an absolute gem!!! Thank you for having us.

Mandy was such an accomodating host and was very responsive to our communication. We really enjoyed our stay at her quaint abode which was promixal to everything you will need (Grocery, Bars, Restaurants, Bike Hire etc). It was fully equipped for our nearly week long stay and Mandy had really nice recommendations for places we might require. Definitely would recommend staying at Mandy’s and looking forward to staying again when I’m next in town.

A very comfortable stay in a mix of historic and modern surroundings. A lot of steps but not unexpected. Close to amenities. Host responded quickly to inquiries. Overall, a lovely stay!

My family of four stayed at Max’s place for four nights. The location is great, with just about an hour’s drive to many popular destinations in Holland. The view of the lake from the balcony was beautiful. The apartment was clean and spacious. We truly enjoyed our stay in this quiet and peaceful neighborhood, and we will recommend it to our friends and family if they visit Holland in the future.

We loved everything about ok Linda's place. The apartment is bright, clean, and beautifully decorated. The space isn't big but it feels roomy and comfortable because of how well it's organized. The building is beautiful and in a wonderful quiet location with a very short walk to everything in the old city. Linda was amazingly helpful with recommendations, and she helped us plan some local travel and navigate the train strike. Absolutely lovely experience all around.

I was looking for a place for my friend where we could have a nice time and go fishing. The apartment was even more beautiful than in the photos and the hostess was so incredibly sweet. We couldn't have done better. An incredibly beautiful environment. Great people and everything within walking or cycling distance. We would be happy to come back again 😍

A lovely few days spent in Hilversum! Lots of great restaurants and easy walkable access to Hilversum train station. Pieter’s place was cosy and clean. He had all the amenities from a hairdryer to a coffee maker! It looked exactly like the photos and it was even next to a lovely park which was great for walks! Also directly next to a restaurant which overlooked the park and lake which was beautiful! Would stay again. Thank you Pieter!

It was an overall very pleasant stay which i enjoyed a lot. Wilma and her family are warm-hearted and absolutely welcoming. The apartment is very nice and exactly as described.

A warm welcome, a nice room (the blue one) a wonderful bathroom and a beautiful environment where you can eat and drink on both sides of the water. In short, a must.
