Holiday houses in Java-eiland

We had a lovely stay here for 5 weeks from Nov to Dec. We have 2 young kids and a baby. The house was lovely and cozy. The beds are super comfy. The children loved their bedrooms, one of which I used as a make shift wfh office. The Wi-Fi is excellent. There is a beautiful garden with swings and a trampoline for the children, 3 chickens, two dogs and a cat! There were lots of board games and a lovely old toy boy box full of surprises for the youngest. Martijn and Margriet are really lovely hosts. They were super helpful. A gem of a spot to stay in Bakkum/Castricum!

We stayed at Advas house with our dog for three nights and really enjoyed our stay. The host was leaving some treats for us and even for Lumi (our dog) and also suggested nice restaurants and possible walks with gpx files in the area. The place was just as presented on Air BnB, really clean and nicely decorated. Unfortunately we didn’t have the time to really enjoy the garden but I’m sure it would be great to enjoy a nice little fire outside :) would be nice to come back in summertime!

An Unforgettable Stay in Broek in Waterland – Beyond Expectations! Our stay at this Airbnb in Broek in Waterland was absolutely incredible – truly beyond all expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the charm of the home and the serene beauty of the surroundings. The village itself feels like something out of a storybook – peaceful, picturesque, and just a short and scenic trip from Amsterdam. The home was spotless, thoughtfully decorated, and incredibly comfortable. Every detail was clearly considered with care, from the cozy furnishings to the well-stocked kitchen. We felt immediately at home. Waking up to the sounds of birds and the view of the water was magical. Our hosts Karol and Pamela went above and beyond to make our stay special – warm, welcoming, and full of great local tips. Their hospitality made a huge difference and really added a personal touch to our experience. It was our favorite part of our trip to the Netherlands, bar none.

Frank greeted us with a smile and in impeccable French! He was understanding about our check-in time changes and made us feel very comfortable. The house and its garden are a perfect setting for hours of reading and lazing, surrounded by birds . You can eat outside on the large table and enjoy the tranquility of the place. And for those who want sports: there is a tennis, volleyball, ping pong, soccer , just at the entrance of the residence. Frank gives you the amenities: convenient! The beach is accessible on foot , by bike or by car: bike paths at the entrance to the residence, pretty paths through the dunes and a chill vibe in the beachside restaurant bars. And if you want to discover architecture and culture: the cities of Amsterdam, Harleem, Rotterdam (among others ) are easily reachable for a day road trip. Thank you very much Frank for sharing:)

great host. friendly and concerned about making the stay comfortable. We stopped by for a weekend as a stop on our road trip and the place felt very high end. wide open rooms with comfy beds and pillows and other cool spaces plus a lovely cat 🐈 who is quick to warm up to you. If I was being really harsh it could benefit from a second shower/bath for bigger groups and a bigger driveway but the latter is probably more unique to us have 3 cars for our trip. Also sorting the bins situation in the area was a bit confusing but that's because we care about our waste a lot and don't throw trash in any bin. the area is well maintained and whole neighbourhood is clean.

Kaspar’ stay in Sassenheim was perfect. From the moment we inquired about his space, he was super helpful, proactive, and responsive. The house was very clean and spacious and equipped with all amenities we needed for a long term stay. We particularly enjoyed having a drink on the terraces on a nice day. Additionally, we were staying in the bustling area of Sassenheim. Extremely central to good eateries, grocery and retail stores. As well as a beautiful park where we could enjoy the serenity. Thank you so much Kaspar, for your hospitality, kindness, and attentiveness. We loved our home in Sassenheim!

This houseboat is one of two, sitting together, at the end of a quiet street, an 8 minute walk from Waterlooplein station, a 16 minute walk to Amsterdam Centraal. The home is a real boat, permanently moored; read the description well. If you have mobility issues, you may want to consider another place. Entry is up metal steps and onto a metal ramp, then onto the edge of the boat. There are steps down into the boat. Patio area is on top of the boat, access by ladder. The boat has a lot of natural lighting from large windows. Street view is of an area of greenery and statues ; canal side view is mostly the other boat with a view of sky and area buildings. The kitchen has a hob, no oven, a dishwasher, refrig and microwave. Kitchen and living room are spacious. There are 3 steps up into the boat's front containing the bedroom with low ceiling and a modern bath. Since is it a boat, there is a "Head". The charming patio is on the top w/table, grill, & greenery. No railings, so be careful.

Great place and location also amazing host
