Waterfront apartment accommodation

Giethoorn (Wanneperveen) Luxurious apartment
The check-in was straightforward and all the important information was super prepared. The highlight is the view over the water and the terrace, from which you can access the lake directly via a ladder. We were already there for the second time and would be happy to come back.

Cozy & cozy apartment "De Oliekan" S
We had a great time in Lemmer. The apartment is clean and tidy and located right in the center! We will be happy to come back.

Skoallehûs aan Zee! Private sauna optional
Roger was a perfect and very kind host. His project of an B&B in the old school is cosy and beautiful. We enjoyed the time in Wierum (it is reeeeeally a quite place)

Freely located holiday home in quiet area
We had an excellent stay! We were visiting family and exploring Friesland and this place was the perfect place for us to stay while doing so! Hella is so welcoming and greeted us when we arrived. The location was peaceful and relaxing with a beautiful view of a pond in the backyard and there were beautiful trails near the Airbnb. The Airbnb was an excellent home away from home while we traveled and if we were visiting in the area again we would definitely want to stay there again!

My wife and I booked this accommodation because we had a Motorrij Experience at TT-Assen. We were pleasantly surprised with this cool house, highly recommended in the summer at tropical temperatures in NL. The space is artistically decorated and also soothing. The living room has a spacious sitting area, a beautiful kitchen unit, a sofa set. The bathroom is nice and spacious with a glass wall, and a partition between the shower and toilet. The bedroom is nice and spacious and has a good bed. We woke up refreshed to go to the motor experience. When we came back in the afternoon, we sat in the garden for another hour. The garden is pure nature with lots of greenery and flowers. For us, it was a great weekend. Gr. Guido and Oesha

Renovated apartment with fantastic views.
Jan-Warner's apartment in one word: great! A bright, light-flooded, tasteful, modern, furnished apartment. Of course, everything was clean and functional. For example, we have never found such a well-equipped kitchen in a holiday apartment. The whole apartment is furnished with attention to detail. But the location is unbeatable! Directly on the Sneeker Meer, at the corner of Princess Margret Canal and Starter Eiland. And in the apartment or on the terrace, an unobstructed view of the colourful hustle and bustle of the sailing and motor boats, as well as the commercial shipping. Even in bad weather, it was never boring with this view. Beautiful tours through the Frisian villages and lakes are possible by bike in the immediate vicinity. It is just 15-20 minutes by bike to Sneek itself.

On the water incl. bicycles ('t Skûtsje 3 pers.)
What a peaceful place to stay! Spotless and cozy, tastefully decorated. Quiet and right on the water. The Hollema family were all so friendly and generous with their time and knowledge. Rent a canoe, kayak, or motorboat from them—you won’t regret. Charming village with nice grocery store and restaurant all around the corner. Heaven!

We felt very comfortable in Hester's accommodation. She always responded immediately to inquiries, welcomed us warmly and gave us tips for our stay. The location is very idyllic and an ideal starting point for bike tours.

luxury home in greenery
We had a wonderful stay despite the weather being a bit against us. The accommodation is complete and equipped with all comforts. Good bed, complete kitchen, lovely shower. Location in nature. Great for walking and cycling. Contact with host was very pleasant. Repeatable. Petri and René

Nice house on the Boarne, near the Frisian lakes
This is our second time staying at this lovely cottage in Airling, which says a lot — we rarely return to the same place twice, but our first stay here was so wonderful that we just had to come back. The area is incredibly peaceful and quiet, making it the perfect place to truly relax and unwind. The cottage may be small, but it has absolutely everything you might need — every little thing is thoughtfully provided, and somehow, whatever you're looking for, you always find it right there. Evenings by the canal are absolutely priceless — calm, beautiful, and unforgettable. Thank you Gisela & Frank!

Idyllic monumental farmhouse in Giethoorn
Wonderful weekend in Dwarsgracht, despite the rain We had a fantastic weekend in the cottage on the Dwarsgracht, despite the weather not always cooperating. The cottage was comfortable and cozy, and the location is beautiful — even with rain it is enjoyable in this area. What really made the stay special was Eva's hospitality. She was incredibly relaxed and open, even with our animal gang. We immediately felt welcome and comfortable. It's so nice when you come somewhere and find that you are not only tolerated, but really seen and appreciated. Thank you Eva, for your warmth and hospitality! We'd love to come back — hopefully with some more sun next time. 🌦️🐾

Idyllic Country House to IJsselmeer
We spent very nice days in this beautiful house. The terrace directly on a small canal with a view over the meadows offered pure relaxation. The area is ideal for cycling along the canals and blooming tulip fields. Trudi was a very nice and attentive host. Thank you! Maria and Heiko

Characteristic fisherman's house close to downtown
Great apartment, very nicely decorated. It was not one of the usual very clean anonymous apartments, but simply a home.

Cozy cottage in the city center and on the water in Sneek
Very nice base to explore Sneek and its surroundings. Quiet neighborhood with a nice terrace and you are in the center in no time. The cottage was very clean and equipped with every comfort. Gea is a nice, friendly host. In short: recommended!

Totally renovated house @city centre/harbour
Very nice location, very close to the center. It is important to note 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 bikes. It is a quiet environment and yet close to the city centre! Wonderful place and definitely recommended.

Quietly located holiday home in beautiful Oostwoud.
we have enjoyed the house and the surroundings very much. Nice contact with Vonny. we have boat that they have been able to rent and that is a real recommendation. repeatable
Waterfront condo accommodation

B&B Warnser Hoekje
Amazing expérience, beautiful house and location ! Johanna and her husband are very caring hosts. We will definitely come back. Thank you

Probably the best IJsselmeer view in Friesland!
It was super nice. The accommodation is beautifully located with a unique view of the IJsselmeer. This also means constant fresh air, wind, and the sound of the water. We loved that. There is also a beach on the dike for swimming. Good beds, great kitchen and shower, nice living room to relax. Everything you need for a relaxing holiday is there. We have also thought of the dog. We'd love to come back.

By the Haven op Urk
I had a wonderful stay! The host was polite, very responsive, and maintained great communication throughout. The location is excellent—close to everything I needed—and the apartment was spotless, well-organized, and incredibly comfortable. It truly felt like a home away from home. I would definitely book again and highly recommend both the host and the apartment.

Luxury apartment on the canal of Groningen
Had a great stay! Great location within walking distance of central Groningen. Very clean and cosy. Loved the little patio. We hope we can come back soon.

Luxury apartment with harbor view for 4 persons
Great place for a weekend trip. The flat is nice and Remco is a really friendly guy!

Unique! Enjoy Views, Water, Nature and Peace
Beautiful location and really nice, we were allowed to use two bicycles and a canoe, which was great. We were in Groningen in about 45 minutes by bike.

Apartment with spacious private balcony on the water
Pleasant stay in the calm neighborhood. Host was very kind and even though we arrived very late for the check-in, she was right there waiting for us and made sure we are comfortable. I will definitely recommend.

Guest house in the North Frisian countryside
We felt very comfortable at Linda's. The house and garden have a special charm. It was exactly as we had wished and expected. Many thanks to Linda!!
