Waterfront holiday rentals in Gooise Meren

Our second time at Sebastian’s wonderful Airbnb. This location is perfect as it’s quiet and yet very near the busier sections of town. Sebastian is a terrific host and everything is as described. He is very friendly and makes sure all is well:-) You will not find a better property !

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.

Fantastisch appartement op een heel goede locatie. En ondanks dat je in het hartje van het centrum zit, hartstikke rustig! Het appartement voelt huiselijk aan en heeft alles wat wij nodig hadden. Douwe is een geweldige gastheer, die indien gewenst veel tips voor activiteiten heeft. En we hebben hartelijk met hem gelachen. Er is geen twijfel, dat we hier nog eens terugkomen.

Es war sehr sehr schön bei Miriam. Sie war ein super Host und wir kommen gerne wieder

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.

Kim is very responsive to any communications. Well equips home. Left some items by way of coffee etc to help when you first arrive.

The location is in front of harbor and very close to the historic center of Monnickendam. Bus access was very good for nearby towns and villages, including Marken, Volendam, Edam and Broek in Waterland. I was happy to see the sunrise across the harbor and yachts from the window of this attic apartment. I also really liked the check-in time was early from 13:00. This made me to leave my bags in the apartment early and explore Monnickendam well in the afternoon. It is very good for especially a short term stay in this well organized clean apartment. Joke and Peter were both friendly hosts.

“My stay at Evert’s place was 10/5 stars. The location is wonderful - right on the canal, down the street from a lovely cafe and flower shop and central to popular and nontouristy attractions alike. Evert is a wonderful and warm host who has meticulously curated a beautiful and homey flat. He provides extensive resources on the artistic hidden gems of Amsterdam within the flat’s book collection, which I found helpful and charming. The flat is on the second floor of the building owned by Evert and looks onto the canal. Evert welcomed me and showed me how to access the property so I could come and go as I pleased and had the independence and privacy that I desired. Would be a dream to stay here again.

Rundum perfekt für eine Auszeit mit der Familie! Das Haus liegt direkt am Wasser und an einer Strandbar mit Spielplatz für die Kinder. Zudem kann man direkt am Wasser spazieren. Das Haus hat eine tolle Atmospäre und bittet alles, was man für die Auszeit benötigt.

Eveline en Stefan zijn geweldige hosts. Ze respecteren je privacy, maar staan je graag te woord om je de omgeving beter te leren kennen. Het huisje is ruim en schoon. Heel rustig. Ook locatie kan niet beter; op een boogscheut van Amsterdam. Helemaal top.

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans le logement de Marije. Belle maison fidèle aux photos (lit 160 très confortable dans une chambre et 2 lits gigognes en 90 pour l'autre chambre), accueillante et agréable à vivre, dans un quartier résidentiel calme près d'une forêt. Commerces (SPAR 7j/7, boulangerie, boucherie..) à 5 min à pied. A 20 min en voiture des parkings relais (Arena ou Zeeburg) pour prendre les transports en commun vers le centre d'Amsterdam. La communication avec Marije a été très facile.

Bei Mirjam im Lovly family House ist auf jeden Fall Erholung im Urlaub angesagt. Es ist alles liebevoll eingerichtet, eben zum wohlfühlen. Auch der kleine Garten läd bei schönem Wetter zum verweilen ein. Von Muidenberg kann man viele schöne Fahrradtouren unternehmen und ist in Kürze bequem in Amsterdam. Danke für die schöne Unterkunft

Had a lovely stay at Paul and dafnas place, lots of cooking equipment for all types of cooking. Lovely garden and beautiful surroundings. Will definitely stay again in the future if available!

Casa fantastica e funzionale, con giardino dotato di servizi superiori alle aspettative. Rapporto qualità/prezzo adeguato. Rob è un persona sempre disponibile e cortese, molto cordiale all'accoglienza. Zona residenziale estremamente tranquilla e in linea con le ns aspettative, soprattutto logistiche, rispetto al nostro programma di vacanza. Presenti servizi di prossimità adeguati. Esperienza consigliata!

Rick was a wonderful host, had a friend greet us on arrival to show us the place and gave us a little tour of the town, since he was away. Greeted us with a bottle of wine and an excellent instruction manual and recommendations of nearby “things to do” He has a lovely home in a walkable town. Rick was responsive to any concern we had. I highly recommend this property and Rick!

Absolutely beautiful house. Great location with good facilities near by. Host was extremely helpful and generous.

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.

Das Haus liegt in einer wunderschönen und ruhigen Umgebung. Es ist für Naturliebhaber leicht zu erreichen und dennoch nur 25 Minuten vom Stadtzentrum Amsterdams entfernt. Wir vermissten lediglich eine größere Spüle zum Abwaschen des Frühstücksgeschirrs. Insgesamt war es aber eine sehr sympathische Erfahrung.

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 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!

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!

This apartment is absolutely amazing! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Monique helped us to feel right at home and she really went above and beyond with the extra details for us. The location is in a chic neighborhood just moments away from the NDSM. Beautiful art and great restaurants in the area. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

We enjoyed staying at Fleur’s apartment. It is very close to a tram stop which made it easy to get around, and it was well situated between the main areas of the city, making it a good base to explore from. The apartment was nice - it had everything we needed for a couple days in the city. The only thing to note is that the stairs within the apartment (from living area to bedroom) are narrow and steep, but this seems quite typical of stairs in this area- the same was true of stairs in restaurants in the area. Overall we had a great stay and I would stay there again!

Our stay with MorningStar in Amsterdam was absolutely exceptional. The home was pristine, beautifully designed, and full of luxurious touches that made our three-night stay unforgettable. We arrived to find thoughtful treats like fresh fruit and chocolate waiting for us—such a warm welcome! The location was perfect: central, quiet, and incredibly walkable, which made it easy for our family of four to explore the city. Every detail exceeded our expectations. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again—highly recommend!
