HISTORICAL DOWNTOWN AMSTERDAM
Laura and her husband Arjan were the perfect hosts! Arjan served us breakfast each morning which included a basket of fresh bread, fruits and cheese. Arjan provided us with great recommendations and most especially - showed us how to use the tram system! It is a lovely apartment and they made us feel very welcome.

Sara's Cottage Apartment
We had a wonderful extended weekend! The place was cozy and equipped with everything you need. The location is very good and you can reach both the beach and the dune reserve (for free) on foot! The host was very friendly and greeted and said goodbye to us personally. An all-round successful stay! We'd love to come back 🙂

Unique guest suite close to CS and Jordaan
Fantastic apartment, really clean and comfortable in a great neighbourhood: peaceful but walking distance to everything you could need. Loes and Fokke are wonderful hosts, warm and helpful- we had a brilliant few days exploring the city from the perfect base.

Inside City Centre, near park, 25 min from Beach
Eva’s place was perfect for a central base and had everything needed - great having a washing machine also. Location was great - easy walk to town for eating and also 15mins walk to the station. Eva herself was amazing and helped me out quickly when I locked myself out.

Luxury Appartment near Amsterdam and Keukenhof
Had a great stay ! The place was clean, comfortable, and matched the description. The host was friendly and communication was smooth. Everything went as expected.

Classy Room 17th Century Canal House
We loved our stay in this character-filled historic house. The apartment is beautiful, spacious and felt private, even though it’s a shared building. The location is excellent and we savored the view of the canal from the big windows. The bed and linens are comfy, crisp and clean, and there were plenty of towels. We even enjoyed hearing a bit of Evert and his students’ violin-playing. (Seriously, I don’t really like violins but the playing was expert and lovely.) Memorable stay!!

Beautiful appartment in the heart of Alkmaar
Perfect location. You are in the middle of the hustle and bustle and still have a small terrace out back with absolute peace. Everything was well maintained. We were very enthusiastic and Ivar responded immediately to questions. Thank you

InspirationPlekAanZee, directly on the beach
We had a wonderful time in Callantsoog and Nathalie's accommodation offers everything you need for a cozy vacation: sea and beach are within walking distance, as well as restaurants and a supermarket, bicycles are available for excursions and the transport connection is great! Nathalie welcomed us warmly, shared the best tips and was always available for questions and requests. A very clear recommendation and a big thank you to you, dear Nathalie!

Lovely home with canal view in city center
Enkhuizen is a beautiful city. And Bart’s place is very central. Everything in the city is a 15 minute walk! Bright home with lots of options for enjoying a meal inside or on the patio. Would highly recommend as a place to stay!

Casa Petite: cottage with garden and parking space
We were traveling by bike and used Ben and Inge's accommodation for 3 nights. On the one hand, the proximity of Amsterdam (with a bus stop nearby and the train from Weesp... totally easy!) and the really beautiful small towns of Weesp, Muiden and Naarden. Inge brought us an incredibly great breakfast every morning on request. She is a great, very friendly hostess. Thank you very much for this great start to the day. We felt totally comfortable with Ben and Inge and appreciated their hospitality very much. The small independent apartment is very quiet, very clean and cozy (as in the photos). Actually a real insider tip, ....psst,but don't tell anyone :-) Thank you, Inge and Ben for the great time! Thomas & Astrid

Luxury Vacation Home on the Vinkeveen lakes
We had great days at Richard's house! The location is excellent, nice and quiet and with the lake of course great for refreshing. We rented the boat and also spent a nice time on the water and the larger lake. The house has everything you need, air-conditioned rooms were perfect on the hot days. Sitting together on the terrace by the lake in the evening, great! You can't go wrong with the house and would book it again and again.

De Schele Pos, tranquility and water
Inge is a pleasant person and ready to help (offer to do laundry). Some sweets were waiting for us when we arrived. The accommodation is pleasant and good location. Recommended.

Appartment in a canalhouse in central Amsterdam!
The perfect pad for two in a really beautiful part of Amsterdam - central and easy to walk to everything but quiet at night and a lovely friendly atmosphere. Mati was great and really easy to get hold of, ask questions etc. I would highly recommend this stay.

5-star (family) house near water
The apartment is great, but the absolute highlight is the terrace on 3 sides of the house, right on the water. The large glass fronts in the living room provide a view of the water, which makes the apartment special even in cool temperatures. The only downside is that you'd rather not go on an excursion, but just stay in the apartment.

Totally renovated house @city centre/harbour
Very nice location, very close to the center. It is important to mention that there is no parking space for the car. 500 meters away is a free parking space. We didn't think this was a problem. First drop off the luggage and then take the car to the parking lot, went well (one-way traffic). The cottage is modern and cozy and equipped with every comfort! Train station and bus stop are nearby to explore the wider area by public transport. In the garden, there is a shed where you can store your own/rented bicycles. It is a quiet environment and yet close to the city center! Wonderful place and definitely recommended.

Luxury Holiday Home IJsselmeer, Medemblik
The accommodation completely convinced us: very clean, everything you need for a holiday week, very comfortable beds, great bathroom, appealing outdoor area. Very friendly, uncomplicated hosts, always available and with proactive tips, e.g. on the changed route. We can fully recommend Micaela and John's house.

Prinsengracht 969, your home to explore Amsterdam
This apartment was amazing for our quick trip to Amsterdam. The location is perfect—right on one of the main canals and walkable to everything. Helena was such a gracious host and gave us some great recs for vintage shopping, drinks, and eats. The space was well appointed and she was so flexible with our arrival and departure times. I would 100% recommend this place and would stay here again on a future visit.

De Klaver Garage
We stayed in the Klaver Garage for 7 days in June 2025 and we liked it very much. Everything was furnished with a lot of love and we felt very comfortable. Sanny and Dennis answered questions immediately. I can recommend Klaver Garage with a clear conscience. Best regards, Matthias and Christiane

Spacious apartment on the water near Amsterdam
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.

At the Canal, Calm & Beautiful
We had a great stay! Hugo was easy to contact, gave us many local recommendations, and easy to follow directions. The place was clean, had a great view, and is on a quiet street. Location was great, very walkable to all of the main tourist attractions. We were worried about not having a tv but didn’t miss it. Just a heads up to people in the U.S.-bring wash cloths to Europe. All 3 of the Airbnb’s that we stayed at did not provide them. I read that they consider it a personal item, like a toothbrush, and expect you to bring your own. Thank you Hugo!

3 BEDRM APP (90m2) with canalview near Vondelpark
This place was wonderful! It was just as described. We enjoyed listening to the birds (wild parakeets and others) as we sat on the balcony in the mornings. The stairs are steep and narrow but that is just part of being in Amsterdam. One thing to note, there are 2 showers, 2 sinks, but only 1 toilet. It didn’t cause any problem for me, but those staying in the first floor bedroom will have to climb up stairs in the middle of the night. Overall, I highly recommend!

Historic canal house in the middle of De Jordaan!
Morningstar is a beautiful place to stay. The apartment is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The location could not be better. It is right across the canal from The Ann Frank house. There are many wonderful cafes and restaurants nearby. The hosts have thought of everything. I would highly recommend to anyone!

Comfortable Studio, Amsterdam 30 min, Beach 20 min
We really like the accommodation for its location in relation to the country's landmarks. The hosts always very friendly and super quick to respond to messages. Although the room is inside their house we never lacked privacy and we had everything we needed inside the room :)

Yvonne was very accommodating and proactively supported the booking for my parents. Thank you!
