Holiday rentals with breakfast in Alkmaar

Jochem's place is, as others have said, whimsical and creative. He is the ultimate host, very generous with snacks, groceries, coffee, and wine (thank you!). It is clear that he has worked hard to create a unique environment. Here is our list of pros and cons: Pros: Communicative, responsive, kind and generous host Great, safe location - we walked everywhere in this beautiful city Very well stocked fridge, a bottle of wine as a welcome Great shower Nice, big bed Washer and dryer Cons: While Jochem has created nice "mood" lighting, it was somewhat dark for us, and particularly for a woman trying to put on makeup, fix hair, etc. There was absolutely no storage for our clothing, and being on a long trip, it was a challenge living out of suitcases on the floor. The toilet room sink is very tiny with only cold water, and we had to use the kitchen sink to wash up and brush our teeth. I could barely walk around the bed as it takes up most of the bedroom.

Joost and his wife are particularly welcoming. Their warm side helped make our stay familiar and friendly. Excellent bedding. Perfect cleanliness. The breakfast brought every morning with a smile was carefully prepared, good and hearty. This moment was an opportunity to chat a little with an open and caring couple. The apartment, easy to find - is extremely pleasant, well furnished, accessible and in a green and peaceful setting. The tram that takes us to the city center and the Museum district is a 3-minute walk away and the trams are very frequent. We didn't regret not being in the city center at all Everything was positive. We highly recommend Joost and his wife's apartment

It’s a very nice home and it was a pleasure to stay at Mark’s place!

We had a wonderful holiday at Willems' place, I did not expect to be in his house but everything is done to be comfortable. A small booklet is put down so we know what to do in the area. It helps a lot and is super responsive when asked how to access a place. Thanks again

Beautiful accommodation is centrally located in Volendam. Amsterdam is easily accessible by bus in 25 minutes. The host is super accessible and responds quickly.

Location was good, host was very friendly. Definitely would recommend.

Flawless stay, beautiful house and a lovely cat! Would highly recommend!

What a fantastically beautiful place. Wonderful in nature, beautiful blooming garden and tranquility everywhere. Welcoming, full of comforts, fresh flowers in the rooms, distilled water, really everything was there. Should even stay a little longer. In short, fantastic!

Judith was an awesome host! She helped us to settle in and was very helpful during our stay! The house was very clean and very cozy, the only point of attention was the floor was very noisy but nothing that was too uncomfortable

It was a nice short stay at Henk's, we felt comfortable and can recommend the accommodation!

We had an unforgettable holiday in Scheveningen. At first, the apartment really is much bigger than it looks on the photos. Check-in was straightforward and the staff were super friendly. The view over the harbor is really nice. There are many, very tasty restaurants there and also a Jumbo supermarket is within walking distance. Bus 28 can be reached within 5 minutes on foot. With this bus you can drive to both the city and the main train station in about 20 minutes. The buses also run very often and long. After a slightly further walk, you can reach the Pier of Scheveningen within 10 minutes by bus 22. However, you do not necessarily have to take the bus, because the Zuiderstrand can also be reached within a 10-minute walk from the apartment. This beach is quieter than the beach at the pier which we really enjoyed. We would like to come back any time and would like to take this opportunity to thank BizStay again for the great service.

I had a wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The place was clean and comfortable. The host was responsive, and made sure instructions were clear. The location was convenient and quiet, with easy access to shops and restaurants. It felt like a home away from home. I recommend this spot and would definitely stay here again. Overall, very good experience all around!

We stayed in the apartment for a weekend and felt very comfortable. With the bikes you could easily reach the nearby metro station and we had a good time in Amsterdam. The landlords were very friendly and always easy to reach. I highly recommend this place for Amsterdam stays.

The flat was very cute and peaceful. The owners we're very kind, helpful and friendly. The location was quiet and nice to take long walks. Would definetely recommend staying there and we would Love to come again.

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!

Malo and Maarten were excellent hosts who met us on arrival and showed us around their very well-appointed and well-stocked home. Their place has everything you could possibly need or even think about needing such that we didn't even need to contact them for anything during our stay. The personal touches made it even better. We felt right at home in their beautifully designed home and were able to access the entire city easily from this location. We definitely recommend Blueprint B&B 100%!

Wilhemina is an absolutely wonderful host who goes above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. From the moment I booked, she provided detailed information and checked in about our arrival time. The room was beautifully prepared with thoughtful touches like local tourist brochures for Amsterdam and Rotterdam. Despite inaccessible kitchen, she generously provided complimentary breakfast each morning, and the bathroom facilities were excellent. The location is truly special for nature lovers - peaceful and surrounded by greenery where you can truly unwind. However, future guests should be aware of a few practical considerations: there are stairs to navigate with luggage (pack light if possible), and the property is about 30km from Amsterdam city center. While accessible by public transport (metro + bus or two buses), the journey takes time, and evening/night bus frequency reduces to 30-60 minute intervals. This is a perfect retreat for travelers who prioritize tranquility.

We had a nice visit there we just wanted a place to sleep because we had to catch a flight. Rob is a nice guy he offered us breakfast as well but we had no time!

Elly and Simon's place was perfect for our 4 night stay. So nice to have a private little outside sitting area looking over the fields. Having the bikes was marvelous, we cycled to the beach through the forest (get Elly to give you directions) and stopped in the local towns for cafes, a fabulous lady day of the Keukenhof season, just a few minutes away by bike. We cycled along the peaceful, safe canal path to the Hillegom station to go to Haarlem for the day (and the train goes on to Amsterdam from there too). The bed was comfy, the shower was warm and clean and the wifi and TV worked fine. We used the aircon as is did get warm up in the loft bedspace but that was fine too, very quiet. The breakfast was fresh, tasty and plentiful. All in all it was a very well equipped and well located space with lovely hosts.

It is a special place that is run with a lot of love, in the middle of nature where Fuchs and Has' say good night. We slept in the lower room. The breakfast in Saskia's kitchen /living room was prepared with a lot of love,even freshly squeezed orange juice ❤️The rooms are exceptional and special. We had our bikes with us and discovered many beautiful spots on earth in the area (Hoorn❤️) Thanks for the nice break. 💐💫Best regards, Sabine and Hartmut

In a beautiful location is the house of Dirk-Jan, a very friendly host. You feel immediately welcome and he also provides a nice breakfast with a toast during breakfast as a highlight :) From the house you can walk to Volendam, which we thought was ideal.

Irmi is awesome! She is super friendly and willing to help with anything you want. There is a breakfast included but you can choose whether you want it or not. There are groceries nearby and walkable. But bus stop is nearby too, easy to get to the Almere central and you can easily to go to Amsterdam or Utrecht. The neighborhood is nice, peaceful. Almere is the quite city if you like staying at peaceful place. Almere center is huge and super perfect for shopping! There is lot of space for u to shopping, not crowded at all. And there are many shops there like Amsterdam. I would recommend it if you want to shopping on your last days. So you will not be tired. Also there are 2 cats in the house and they are super cute!

Mark is an exceptional host and a great person. The house was like walking into design/art fairytale and it was maintained so incredibly well. Everything was so well-maintained, carefully curated and well-placed. Truly a beautiful experience to stay there.

We had a wonderful stay with Maurice! He is a very welcoming and attentive host, always ready to help optimize your travel plans so you can still visit everything you want, even if the weather changes. The location also offers excellent transport connections to Amsterdam, making it very convenient. We had a wonderful time and would definitely love to come back!
