Family-friendly holiday rentals in Zaanstad

Alles prima in orde

Federica and Ladislao were absolutely wonderful throughout the entire process. Responsive, accommodating and flexible with check-in and check-out times. The place itself was huge, very unique and homey. We spent most of our time in the garden, which was very charming, shaded and private. The living room had a large skylight that brightened the whole place. The room was packed with a variety of plants that also gave the house a great atmosphere. We also loved the industrial kitchen! Location was also great. Central yet quiet and peaceful. Plenty of great bars and restaurants around, and just a 10 minute walk from the museum district. Overall was a great stay! Highly recommended for a group of friends or a family.

Manuel's place was such a beautiful home. We loved the lush green view from the window every time we walked into the living room. The place was sun-filled and airy, and it felt nice to sit on the couch and relax. The location was superb, in a quiet and trendy suburb full of cute cafes and lovely children's parks. Manuel was an excellent communicator. We very much enjoyed our stay.

This apartment is beautiful and pretty much exactly like the pictures. The garden is a fantastic inclusion, the bathroom is as theatrically fabulous as it looks and it was lovely to be able to play the baby grand piano. The increasingly popular De Pijp area is a short walk across the bridge and we spent most of our time there. A fantastic place to stay in a brilliant location - we’ll be back.

This is a great house just 15 minutes walk or 5 minutes cycle to the centre of Haarlem. It’s also really easy to access the nearby beaches. It’s in a quiet neighbourhood. There’s a very good supermarket just a few minutes walk away. The house is extremely well equipped and comfortable. Ilan is a great host, available to help whenever needed. We’d be extremely happy to stay here again.

Un grand merci à Barbara qui est réactive, accueillante, toujours disponible et arrangeante, aussi flexible après une arrivée décalée d'un jour à cause d'un vol annulé ! Un logement très propre, très pratique et fonctionnel, à proximité de nombreuses options de transport, de super restaurants, épiceries, supermarché, location de vélos..un super séjour finalement grâce à son accueil pour notre famille avec trois enfants!

What a fun experience! And what a terrific host! In a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. To say we got to stay on a houseboat in Amsterdam is always going to be a fun memory! But note, it is definitely a boat. You must be fully able bodied to access the boat and get around comfortably inside. The kitchen is suitable for snacks. And as with most European AirBnBs, bring your own bath products.

Perfect home for the 5 of us. Close to train and bus for trips to Harlem, Amsterdam and elsewhere. Nice quiet neighborhood. Appreciated recommendation to rent bikes from Behind the Beach. They had both standard and electric bikes. If it’s your first time to Holland remember the homes have very steep narrow stairs to second and third level but this home also has sturdy hand rails! Thanks for a great stay!

This place is so adorable! It has an amazing terrace, and right in the center of the city with so much to do. The place was so comfortable and had all the amenities we would have needed. I would highly recommend this place if you’re looking to explore Amsterdam!

The pictures don’t do justice to the actual house ! Super comfortable home and the perfect hosts ! If you have a baby, this is just the place to book without thinking twice !!

If you want a true taste of Amsterdam, Jaap’s place is a perfect fit. The historic accommodations right on the canal make you feel like one of the residents. Sitting on the boat and watching the other canal boats go by was a favorite pastime of our stay. Nighttime was gorgeous with the lights on the boat and the city reflecting in the water. Inside, the space was so unique and perfectly accommodated the four of us! Stores to purchase delicious baked goods and groceries were nearby as well as places to sit down and grab some local fare. We loved our stay here and already are talking about how we can come back to Japp’s amazing canal boat! We would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to share in a true taste of this very special city!

Robbert’s place was great. Right in the middle of everything, but still private and quiet. Would definitely stay there again!!

Andrew was the best host! He was so helpful with recommendations and was always responsive if we had any questions. He also gave thorough instructions ahead of time to ensure a smooth check-in and stay! The apartment was beautiful - just like the photos on the listing and we were very comfortable as a group of 4. The location was amazing too - very close to busier shopping streets but on a peaceful and quiet street. Cannot recommend enough! 10/10

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful and traditional home. The surroundings were peaceful, and the house had a very local charm — a great way to experience the culture. The host was very friendly and warmly welcomed us, giving us a helpful introduction to the place. The living room and kitchen were quite dim, and we suggest adding more lighting. The dining table was high, and although there were five beds for our group of five, there were only four chairs, with no other suitable ones to replace the missing seat. The guest rooms and bathroom are located upstairs, but the staircase is very steep and narrow, which may not be suitable for those with limited mobility. The shower drained slowly, and due to a low step, water easily overflowed onto the floor. The toilet area was also a bit dark. These were just small issues and didn’t affect our overall mood. We were still very happy with our stay and appreciated the unique atmosphere.

Das Haus von Sophie ist sehr schön, der Garten und die Lage am Wasser sind einfach traumhaft. Es ist alles vorhanden was man im Urlaub braucht, sogar das Boot durften wir benutzen. Sophie ist eine sehr nette Gastgeberin, es hat alles wunderbar geklappt und war unkompliziert, danke dafür. Wir haben es genoßen und kommen gerne wieder.

Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit in dem charmanten Haus. Das Haus ist mit allem Notwendigen eingerichtet und alles war sehr sauber.

The house boat was just as it looked in the pictures! It was very spacious and comfortable for our family of 4. It was perfect how the kids sort of had their side, or wing, and my husband and I had our space in the master bedroom, on the other side. We all slept very well! We loved the cats, Skip & Bo. We are animal people, so it was fun having them come and go, and socialize and snuggle with us! The views were amazing and there were plenty of spots to just chill when we weren't out exploring. The house boat was very walkable to many fun spots and different areas. We definitely felt like we were staying in someone's home versus a rental. Enjoyed all of the personal touches in the kitchen as well! We would go back in a heartbeat and recommend Joost's place without hesitation!

Beautiful home and view, wonderful welcome package upon arrival, close proximity to anything, responsive host!

Evelien was wonderful, kind and helpful. The apartment was just as it was described and the pictures are what you enter as well! Perfect apartment for us and our little girl 15 months old. the bed was soooo comfortable! the apartment was clean and well looked after. we didn't hear any noise apart, it was incredibly peaceful.

Mit meinen Kindern habe ich 4 Tage bei Harold verbracht. Bereits im Vorfeld war die Kommunikation mit ihm total unkompliziert, aufgeschlossen und nett. Für die Anreise hatte Harold hilfreiche Tipps (Tram 26!), war jederzeit erreichbar und hat sogar angeboten, uns an der Haltestelle abzuholen und den Weg zum Boot zu zeigen. Harold Boot ist kein herkömmliches AirBnB. Es ist ein Zuhause, in dem man sich sofort uneingeschränkt wohl- und willkommen fühlen kann. Man findet alles, was man braucht und hat keinerlei Einschränkungen bzgl des Komforts. Wir waren begeistert. Harold hat uns herzlich empfangen und uns mit Kaffee, einem Obstkorb und Wein willkommen geheißen. Direkt vom Boot aus besteht die Möglichkeit zu baden. Es liegt super zentral, Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Fahrradverleih sind in direkter Umgebung. Mit dem Rad ist man in nicht einmal 30 min in der Innenstadt und in der Nähe gibt es noch sehr viel mehr zu entdecken. Danke, Harold, dass du dein Zuhause mit uns geteilt hast.

Great location lovely home. All family have had the best time. You definitely recommend!

We had such a great time at Laura’s Airbnb! While it was a long walk to the heart of Amsterdam, there are so many public transportation options close by and they are so easy to navigate. The neighborhood is gorgeous and we would definitely stay again!

We really enjoyed our family stay. The house was great, and it was exciting to stay in the harbour. The location was very peaceful, away from the centre of Amsterdam, but well connected by tram. As it's a family home, there was lots of stuff in the house, which limited storage space a bit, but that made it feel more like a home than a rental house and meant the kitchen was very well equipped. Would recommend.

On a passé un très bon séjour au calme et dans un cadre verdoyant
