Find Places to Stay in Schalkwijk on Airbnb

Lovely space close to Harleem. Perfect if you plan on visiting Harleem and Amsterdam.

The place was great! It was small but had everything needed aside from not having much of a kitchen (which isn’t a big deal as there are many places to eat nearby). It was nice and central to a lot of great places including Grote Markt which had many pubs and stores! Inge was very kind and was quick to respond when I had any questions! This place is highly recommended for anyone looking to stay and explore Holland!

Very good appartment I recommand

Very friendly host reactive and attentive! Thank you

Amazing comfortable place. Very nice look. Clean big bathroom. Large beds. Road to the ocean take around 45 mins in slow temp. I’m happy what I was here. See you, Inge!

Had a great stay

Loved the apartment. Was huge and has a lovely deep bath. Excellent location as a very short walk to shops.

An apartment ideally located in Haarlem. 10 minutes walk from the center. A very flexible host when arriving times. A good moment !

The place is so quiet, is very good to sleep well, the location is amazing, you can reach all the city on train or bus, and is so close to Haarlem center

lovely stay in a quiet area !

Definitely recommendable!

Inge was so kind with us , the place was better than I expected

Charming little house in a great neighborhood! Inge was a great host. We can really recommend it!

Thank you we had a great stay, Amsterdam is 50 minutes by bus, the little house is functional and super cute Inge is reactive, pleasant and accommodating Satisfied

Cool place in a cool city & the host was nice

Very good host, very welcoming, thank you very much. Very good host, very welcoming, thank you very much.

Perfect, cozy accommodation for two people. With the existing bicycles we were in town within ten minutes. Very friendly hosts who immediately helped with questions. We would come back in a heartbeat!

The Place was just what the pictures promise! Friendly and easy communication, the included bikes were perfect for exploring city and neighbourhood! We‘d come back!

You get exactly what you see on the Airbnb website. Moreover, the stay is very quiet and thanks to the 2 bicycles, Haarlem (= pleasant city) is 10 minutes away. From the station of Haarlem you are in 15 minutes (by train) in Amsterdam. The stay is therefore also very conveniently located.

The room is not very big, but does include everything you could need. The place is also spotless!

Amazing host and place. Right next to a lovely scenery and canal. The supermarket is 10 mins away on a bike. And coffee shop is 15 mins away. I loved the peace. Nathan was a fantastic host that let me stay at his place after I missed my flight. I enjoyed every moment and was very relaxed in the community and his home. Thank you Nathan. I look forward to staying again soon.

Fabulous airBnB, well presented in a lovely setting. Easy commute by bikes / foot to train station for Amsterdam and ideal location for exploring Haarlem. Everything you could want and need from a place to stay and relax. Only slight negatives, bathroom is a bit chilly on a cold morning and bath towels are a little small the fuller framed gentleman 😜 All in all great airBnB and Nathan was a great host.

Great Place, very smooth and easy to book and stay. We got everything promised in the description 😊

Lovely and clean. Amazing location. Bikes were brilliant! Everything you need for a wonderful stay!

This is such a beautiful place, it felt like a home away from home and Inge was so kind and accommodating. Restful and quiet location, with lots of lovely little spots of fun nearby. Easy and quick to get to Amsterdam, and a genuine pleasure to be in such a nice neighborhood. Highly recommend!! 20 out of 5 stars

We had a great time in this apartment. There is a lot of space and it’s located right in Harleem. It’s very easy to get to Amsterdam or even the beach! Inge was very welcoming and communicative. I would definitely stay here again.

Nice house with small garden and spacious kitchen.

Inge's apartment is very good to accommodate from one to 8 people, that is, a complete family. It is very well equipped except that it lacks a washing machine. Its location is excellent very close to the center of Harlem. If you take buses 356 and 346 you are in 10 minutes at the Harlem train and bus station, from there there are only about 15 minutes to Amsterdam central station. Buying the Amsterdam Regional card for three days (36 euros) you can travel as many times as you want by train, tram, bus and metro throughout the region and through Amsterdam. Inge's apartment is clean and its beds are incredibly comfortable to rest from the great walks.Inge is a very friendly and helpful person.As soon as you call her and ask for something, she will try to please you. I recommend it 100%.

Inge has been really nice with us and flexible with arrival and departure times. She even lent us a dish to cook in the hoven. The appartment itself is cosy and clean. It is perfect for a weekend among friends to discover Haarlem and Amsterdam.

Our stay at Inge’s place has been wonderful. The house is super cozy and very close to the centrum. Getting in touch with Inge for help or suggestions was always quick and easy. We definitely recommend this place if you pass by Haarlem

The house was lovely and clean - great place for a large group of friends! Close to Amsterdam and very easy to travel there! Haarlem itself is beautiful with lots of places to eat and drink! Overall we had a great time and would definitely come back!

This house makes us comfortable.

Really nice place ! We were surprised by the design and the cleanliness, moreover, Melinda is available and really kind. We pasted a good night !

What a wonderful stay we had here! A beautiful, clean and new room where everything is taken care of down to the last detail. Breakfast is also highly recommended. The hospitality and friendliness of the owners makes it complete.

Beautiful spot! Very attractive and fantastic breakfast. Lovely shower and nice bed.

Perfect location to visit Haarlem and it’s surroundings. With the provided bikes you’re in no-time in the city center and you can still enjoy the green surroundings. The studio m was absolutely perfect as well. Very stylish with everything you could possibly need. Perfect experience!

The studio was more than we expected in the beginning, especially the hospitality of Melinda was great. She is a very sweet caring woman. We will definitely come back!

Very nice and clean B&B. Attention to detail. Delicious breakfast and they are very welcoming.

Melinda’s apartment is a super place to stay. Friendly welcome, easy to reach from the motorway, cosy place with stylish design. Would recommend :-)

The place was amazing and spotless clean! Thank you!

GREAT PLACE FOR COUPLES We loved everything about the accommodation. It was stylish yet homely, with lots of character. It was also very clean. Everything we needed had been thought of. The tv was huge, the bed really comfy, great shower, and the hot tub was a great touch. Nice to use one without chemicals. We loved using the bicycles as well. The location was perfect! It felt secluded and near enough nature, but close enough to Haarlem centre on foot. We cycled to Amsterdam which was great. Marco and Eveline were great hosts, always replying to our messages promptly. We are already planning our next visit.

This is the perfect home away from home! This place was comfortable and cozy, and a 15 min drive to the airport. The countryside was beautiful, it was a great opportunity to see Haarlem as well as Amsterdam. The bathroom and shower were great, the nespresso machine was perfect. We were so excited for the unique hot tub but didn’t have time to use it! Great location for a great price. Better than any hotel we would’ve booked.

Marco’s house was fantastic. Very charming, cozy and exactly as described. We especially enjoyed the hot tub on the patio. The kitchen is awesome- fully functional and has many of the small condiments, tools etc you need to cook just like at home. We enjoyed cooking most of our meals during our stay. The bikes provided were very useful and it was super easy to go to the store and into town. Thank you Marco for a wonderful stay. We will return!

The stay at Marco's was very pleasant, the host answered very quickly and the house was niquel.

Communication with Marco was loving and courteous. He writes back very quickly on all occasions and gives very helpful tips on everything. Check-in worked without any problems. In the house you feel like you are taking care of friends' house while they are not there. The household equipment is excellent. It takes some time to heat up the hot tub, please plan for this. There is a motorway behind the garden and the house is in the entry lane of the airport. You don't notice anything in the house. For people who want absolute peace of mind, staying in the area behind the house where the hot tub is then may not be so suitable. The television construction above the bed could become an obstacle for people over 1.90 m tall. Really good bikes are included in the price. Shops are nearby and connections to Amsterdam and Zandvoort are excellent. You can also go for a great walk, as the house is located on a park and idyllic canals run through the landscape. You can really do a lot. Three days are clearly too short.

Marco and evelines place is great and had everything i needed for a very comfortable 3 week stay. Wouldn’t hesitate to try and stay with them again.

The VIP House in Haarlem is a beauty. It is a 2-story house with plenty of tastefully furnished and decorated living space for two. The hosts provide a very well-stocked kitchen for anyone who loves to cook. There is also the added bonus of a hot tub located in the back yard which can be used during the evening because of colorful ambient lighting that automatically illuminates the space.

We had such a nice stay in Marco’s place. The house was beautiful and unique with everything you need, we enjoyed the hot tub, bikes and the wine. The house was easy to find and communication was excellent, Haarlem is also a nice place to visit and Amsterdam is easily accessible. Would definitely recommend.

We really loved staying at this quite and cozy place. Highly recommended for anyone coming to Haarlem.

Great apartment on quiet street in Haarlem. Very close to bus stops, restaurants and markets.

Great cozy place, great space, modern and nice location! Got an answer right away from the host if it was something we were wondering about or needed help with!

This is a really cool space. Comfortable, private and perfect.

Lovely clean apartment with everything you could need for a short break! Check in via key safe was easy, good communication with owner and ideal location!

2nd time already that we take advantage of this apartment. He is really great. There is everything he does and you can cook without anything else.

Stylish Haarlem apartment close to bus stop and walkable to city center and train station. Very clean with a lovely outdoor patio. A charming way to experience Haarlem!

The apartment is as seen in the photos. Very quiet and perfectly connected. We have not had to wait more than 10 minutes to go downtown or to a nearby town. The treatment by the hosts has been perfect, answering all the questions even months before the stay. I recommend it 100%

We really couldn’t recommend Shelley’s place more! Perfectly situated in Haarlem, you’re just down the road from all of the transport links you’d need to make your way in and around the city. It’s a perfect place if you plan on visiting Amsterdam or any of the surrounding areas. The studio has everything that you’d need, from a comfortable bed to a TV loaded with Netflix, YouTube etc. We only stayed in Haarlem for a few days but it really was made all the more special thanks to the apartment. Shelley was also a fantastic host who couldn’t have been more helpful. Very much appreciated in a time where travel has become a lot more stressful! She was on hand and easily contactable should we have needed her, and the check in and out was quick and easy. Should be decide to visit again we would definitely rebook!

An exceptionally charming host! Great place to stay whilst not being too busy. Immaculately clean and very stylish yet cheap apartment.

Nice space, good bed and top location! Helpful hostess!

Perfect!

Super location for visiting both Haarlem and Amsterdam. Apartment is stylish and comfortable and had all we needed for our stay. Within easy walking distance to many lovely restaurants. Thoroughly recommend.

Nice place ideal to discover the city

Excellent location - 2 minutes walk to Haarlem station, and 19 minutes by train to Amsterdam central station, while there is no fuss and noise of the capital :) The apartment is like new, everything is very clean and tidy, everything was thought out for living, including dishes and even toaster :) during the week of stay there was one cleaning with a change of linen. Shelly is absolutely wonderful, she told how to get there, she was in touch the whole vacation, helped with answers to even those questions that were not related to living :)

Shelly was the best host of all! Super attentive always available kind and kind. I broke a pair of pants and brought me thread and needle, let us check in earlier than indicated. The apartment is super well located and is much cuter than in photos and has great details. If I return to Haarlem I would definitely stay with her again. The host!

Nice place for a big group, for 10 persons the number of beds are on the low/tiny side and just 1 bathroom, but the house is very nice...so no complaints at all! :-) We had a great stay

The house is beautiful and stylish. It is a great space for a group of people with plenty of room and comfortable beds. We had plenty of room to loung around, cook and eat. It was lovely to be close to the canal. We travelled in and out of Amsterdam a few times, mostly by taxi as using public transport meant a walk to the bus stop, a bus journey, then a train journey. It was easy to book taxis. We walked to the shop which was just under 15 minutes away. I would recommend the house to people who want to enjoy the space and comfort of a house while being able to travel into Amsterdam or Haarlem.

It was fantastic!

Thank you , Our stay was beautiful.

Simone was very welcoming and very responsive to questions/requirements. The place is very large and we had 10-12 people staying comfortably, all with enough room to do what we want in different rooms without stepping on eachothers toes. Place was clean when we arrived aside from a few small cosmetic dings, expected from an airbnb though. Kitchen was very large and nice, and location next to the river was pleasant. The travel to the nearest bus stop is about 10/15 minute walk, not terrible but not super convenient either, we all just ended up ubering most places. Beds are comfy and there is 1 master with a double, 1 with a double and single, 1 with a double and 2 singles, with a sofa bed too, and then a double out in the hallway, plenty of room. Was 2 toilets, both with sink/mirror, and 1 shower/bath combo with 2 sinks. Getting everyone ready in the morning with this amount of people and one shower was a bit tough but we knew this coming in, so good prep is needed! We stayed in the middle of summer so it got pretty hot but the house was mostly bearable in that heat actually, especially in the master room, it was hot but not unbearable. Loved this place and would absolutely book again in a heartbeat!

This was part 2 of my stay at this place as we went to a festival in-between, the stay was lovely! I've already written a review for my other half of my stay.

Everything worked out great.

A dreamlike villa ...

Nice little space in Haarlem to relax after a long day of exploring the city. Great location close to everything. 10 minute walk to the train station to Amsterdam plus lots to do in Haarlem itself. The stairs are a little steep but not the biggest deal. Caroline was great at communicating as well. Recommended.

I recommend the room and recommend Caroline's room. It is away from noise if you like quiet nights. The room is clean and several items available such as fridge and kettle for tea and coffee in the room. It's very nice. The bedroom is very bright and pleasant.

A wonderful little cozy place for a great price, in the heart of Haarlem. Wonderful host, recommended! :)

Great space in the centre of Haarlem.

Caroline is a very nice and polite person, the room is quite, clean and sweet decorated, thank you that you make my stay much nicer.

Fantastic your attic! Tidy, clean, a beautiful view, the quiet neighborhood

The place is perfect location if you want to stay a little away from Amsterdam city. The room is nice for a short stop! I couldn’t figure out how the radiation works in the room, so it got cold. But once you are in the bed, you will be totally warm. I found Haarlem is such a wonderful town with local markets, restaurants and groceries near the place. The host is friendly and very communicative with quick responses. Highly recommend it!

Good place to stay if you want to explore Haarlem. Host is helpful and the room is very clean and comfy

Giovanna, Francesco and Felix make an unforgettable trio! Giovanna was very nice to pick me up at the train station for the late arrival. We had very interesting conversations together and they are unique personalities. I would be happy to see you again! Thank you!

I had a very pleasant stay at Sky's apartment. Both her and her son are very welcoming and willing to help with what they can. Highly recommend.

This spot is in a great location and ideal for someone who plans to be out and about exploring Haarlem all day! Only 15 min walk to lots of shops, museums, and restaurants.

A nice homely stay. the owner was really lovely and the Airbnb is located close from the Grote Markt in Haarlem and from the train station, which can take you to Amsterdam in less than 20 minutes.

Plenty of room to sleep in a small upstairs bedroom. About 10-15 minute walk to various parts of downtown Haarlem, and you can stay along the river so it’s hard to get lost. They have a friendly cat.

The location is great, but the space and friendliness of Sky is a great memory, feels really like a home away from home. Very nice home library to admire, and view from the private room window is amazing, fantastic to wake up and look out, or even admire lights at night before sleep. Highly recommended.

very clean...just as in pictures..lovely picture window in bedroom and in living room. comfortable bed..restful stay loved haarlem giovanna is a helpful,kind host.

One of the best traveling experiences that I ever had! Enjoyed it very much. Sky is a wonderful host, warm and welcoming. I totally recommend her and her place. It was a real pleasure of meeting you, Sky.

Top stay: the apartment had just been refurbished. Very clean, well equipped, super quiet (except maybe the soundproofing with the 1st apartment according to the tenant). Very well placed to go to Haarlem or to Amsterdam.

Nice appartment. Clean, light, beautiful view on the Spaarne river. Free bikes to go to town center. Not all bikes had head and tail lights, take care in wintertime. Free car parking on the premises.

We had a great stay with Nathan! Nice apartment and easy access!

Amazing location and place. Great hosts and great staying

Our stay at Nathan’s was really great! It is a very lovely place to stay with an amazing view to canal! Everything was perfectly clean. Nathan has some bikes that we could take to quicker get to the centre of Haarlem! It was convenient and easy to communicate with him! Thank you Nathan!

This is a perfect location on the canal...lovely view day or night. It’s a spacious, well maintained property. Having bikes available is a huge plus, as it’s a very convenient ride into the center of Haarlem. We loved the access on two wheels to the center of town. We highly recommend!

We stayed at the apartment for two nights and everything was fine!! Highly recommended :)

Absolutely stunning place in a beautiful location on the canal. It has an moderately easy walk to local shops and bus stops, which get access to central Haarlem, which connects to Amsterdam easily. We had such a good time staying here!

We had a lovely visit! Hanneke’s home was tidy and welcoming

We had a great stay at Hanneke's house. The house is really lovely and cosy. A bit far away from the center of Amsterdam but very practical for visiting Harlem. The terrasse with the view over the canal is just stunning.

Hanneke is a lovely kind women. She takes care of the host with atmost care and make us feel home. She gave us hot herbal tea whenever required and also helped us to wash our clothes. As well she is a proper guide to consult and tour Amsterdam. I was badly affected with winter injuries, knowing the same Hanneke gave me some moisturizer and it did do real magic. Finally she even dropped us to the bus station as we had heavy luggages. A must stay !

Very nice and helpful hostess, the house was totally clean. A little further out but well public access.

100% recommended. Hanneke is an amazing host, the neighborhood and house are really nice, she does everything to make you feel great and at home! 5 stars.

Very good hotel experience, the owner is very enthusiastic, so you can get good play route suggestions and time planning advice, it will be very convenient, but also help us wash clothes, we went out all day, come back and help us collect Clothes and finishing, I really appreciate ^_^! Although it will take some time on the way to the city, the excitement of the city center and the tranquility of the town are just a good contrast, you can experience the difference of the city. The yard is beautiful. If you have time, you can really relax. I hope that there will be time to walk around the town next time. The room and bathroom are very good, and we have prepared a layer in the refrigerator, which is very convenient. The family is also very friendly, and my daughter also helped me carry the luggage upstairs, thank you! Is a good choice ^_^

Haarlem was a pretty, tranquil and beautiful city. :-) The hostel is not in Haarlem Central, you have to walk 15 minutes by bus. But everything else is the best. The host is really kind and really nice. More than anything else, the hostel is not in Central, but in a quiet little canal. The garden view is fantastic. The private room is spacious, the beds are large, the space and the desk are all wide. The bathroom is very clean with shower and bathtub. Hey 30 minutes by bus to Schiphol Airport. Fully recommended. ^^

It is a beautiful house and Hanneke is a very welcoming host and inclined to give very good advice on tours, walks to do in Haarlem and its surroundings. I recommend !

Good vibe in the house, cozy and nice neighborhood. also a good distance from the beach, Haarlem & Amsterdam.

The hosts were welcoming and helpful and the accomodation was clean and comfortable. I would definitely recommend it.

Very gracious and flexible hosts. My flight times were both early arriving, and late leaving and they allowed me to store my luggage, Bernice welcoming me inside to a lovely cappuccino and their kitchen table where they allowed me to work and gave me great recommendations for the area. Nothing short of exceptional hospitality throughout my stay, both are affable in sharing their home. Bernice has great artistic attention to detail, reflected in the beautiful decor throughout the house. It was really lovely to stay here and contributed greatly to a happy, short vacation to Amsterdam. I felt very welcomed and would return someday.

next time, i'll stay here again i think.

It's very lovely and absolutely perfect to stay some days. Good connections to the city centre and absolutely perfect to stay

As advertised. Awesome room, great accommodations, and a super host that makes sure you have everything you need.

Bernice and Danny were very helpful! They gave me suggestions for activities in the area and were quick to warn me the train line was not running during my trip to their home. The room was very clean and the bed was super comfortable!

I stayed here for about a week and needless to say it was one of the best weeks in my life! The house is extremely clean, warm and cosy and always feels like a home when you come back to it. Bernice and her spouse are very nice and lovely people, I got to use their bikes to explore the area and Bernice was even king enough to take me to the airport. The house is also in a really good spot being close to the station and also just a 15 minute bike ride to the beach. If you ever need a place to stay in the Netherlands I highly recommend here :)

Great place to stay with a very friendly family and great host. The room has everything you need and is designed beautifully. Public transport is a short walk away as well as shops for daily needs.

Great family, very hospitable and super nice room. The shower was my highlight

Would highly recommend, room was clean and was fully equipped with everything that I needed. The host was super friendly and very helpful.

I had a great week-long stay and easily accessed cities from Amsterdam, to Leiden, and The Hague. Very clean and comfortable space. It was convenient to be able to easily come and go via your own side door.

Clean and relaxing environment with a helpful and responsive host . The area is very good with everything needed nearby . I definitely recommend the room to any visitor and I wish to get the chance to stay there again.

A very nice stay for a single traveller in the peaceful village of Heemstede. Kiek and Joost are lovely hosts and provided many useful tips about the local bakery, etc. Convenient access by regular bus services to Haarlem Station and Schipol Airport. The scenic Groenendaal Park and Garden is also only a few minutes walk away.

The warmest room with fabulous amenities I have ever stayed. It is not very big but has everything you might need. Kiek's house is full of love and makes me feel like home. A wonderful experience!

It was an absolute pleasure staying at this Kiek's room. It is exactly as shown in the pictures, extremely stylish and sparkling clean! Kiek was very hospitable and made sure I had a great stay. A great choice if you don't want to stay in the bustle of a big city!

amazing location,10 minute train into amsterdam city centre! love the style and layout of Daniels place! Would 100% recommend and 100% go back !! Thanks again Daniel !!

Very clean and comfortable stay. Easy, fast and inexpensive to get to Amsterdam by train. The host was friendly and guided us through the apartment. He even gave us a small guidebook for Amsterdam and surroundings.

Great little city. Will take about 40/50 min to get to central Amsterdam. Loved the place.

Daniel has a really lovely place, which was perfect for our anniversary long weekend in Haarlem and Amsterdam. We really liked the style of the space, and the little thoughts like the coffee pod machine and the projector. We also love house plants, so Daniels many plants were a treat too! Haarlem is a great area, either for exploring in its own right or for commuting into Amsterdam via the excellent train service. You can also get a bus from the airport which drops you very close to Daniels place. We thought this was a great base for ourselves. The best features for us were: - nice clean space, with a bit of an ‘organic minimalist’ vibe going on - great local bars, coffee shops and food options - lovely welcome from Daniel’s mum, and great communication - nice shower room, and everything in the kitchen that we needed. Highly recommended!

Wonderful location in Haarlem. Very courteous host: I wanted to extend the stay and although Daniel made this a bit difficult, he made it possible! Everything was great, gladly again.

Great location!

Cute apartment in a great location! Easy access to the train to get to Amsterdam, but Haarlem is beautiful in itself and I would recommend spending time exploring. Daniel's mother was super accommodating as travel plans changed and we ended up checking in a little before the original check in time. Great response time from Daniel. Apartment was clean and filled with plants and little touches that really made the stay more comfortable. The projector was a great treat as the poor weather made us change our plans to stay in and have a movie night. Would highly recommend to anyone traveling in or around Amsterdam

Amazing space! So clean and cozy. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Amsterdam don’t be put off by the fact the apartment is in Harlem as it’s only a short train ride away and a lovely place to explore by itself, can’t wait to visit again :)

Annemarie & Renke’s boat house was an amazing stay and an even better experience! The boat house was situated on one of Harlem’s beautiful picturesque canals. Immaculate upon arrival. Both Annemarie and Renske were both quick to help us with anything regarding the stay. Very convenient on how accessible public transport was going into Haarlem city or Amsterdam city Bus stop was adjacent from the home and then from there it’s only a bus and train to Amsterdam city. Supermarket was a 5 minute walk away and had everything you needed. If you wanted to eat out there were plenty of restaurants in Haarlem central. Would highly recommend this stay for anyone who doesn’t like the rush a city has and those who want to immerse themselves on living like a local!! Would be back soon!

All good

Annemarie & Renske's houseboat was outstanding! It was clean, had a fantastic kitchen and extremely comfortable bed. It was located within walking distance of gorgeous Haarlem and I had a blast!

Annemarie's and Renske's place was great. It was conveniently located, incredibly clean and comfortable. The shower was nice and hot. We loved feeding the ducks that greeted us in the morning. Being on the water was a special experience. Haarlem made a great base to explore The Netherlands. It was great being so close to Amsterdam, but without the tourist crowds. I would recommend this home without hesitation.

Everything was very clean and tidy! The houseboat has its own atmosphere - you feel immediately welcome and at home! We took a beamer and connected it downstairs in the bedroom - pure home theater! (Downstairs in the sleeping area there is no TV.) The TV above offered Netflix what we also benefited from, otherwise everything was needed (microwave, coffee maker, tea etc). I can highly recommend Haarlem! The inhabitants called it also Amsterdam 2.0 - without the crowded tourism! Happy again and again!

Good location, but it’s a bit of a walk to the train station. The place was tidy when I arrived, and I loved the view!

My daughter and I instantly felt at home in this charming house boat. It is small but perfect for two people to relax in during the day or night. We especially liked that we slept soundly each night. Just a note- The downstairs stairs to the bedroom and bathroom are steep and not recommended for people who have balance issues. The view was very special and kept us entertained - we spent hours watching an assortment of boats and birds on the water. It is close to the centre of Haarlem and a 15 minute stroll to the train station. It is only 30 minutes to Amsterdam by train. I caught the number 81 bus to the Zuid-Kennemerland National Park which was only 20 minutes away. We enjoyed dinner at the local Thai restaurant, Green Papaya -. It was cheap and good quality food. There are many beautiful shops to explore in the area and parks to relax in. We loved Haarlem life and the chilled residents. I highly recommend the houseboat and Haarlem.

My partner and I stayed here for the weekend and absolutely loved the idea of staying on a boat house. The bedroom was spacious, the bathroom was clean and everything we needed. It was a real treat sipping on a coffee in the morning watching the boats pass by - something I’ll never forget! I would recommend staying in Haarlem. It’s easily accessible from Amsterdam. Having been to Amsterdam multiple times it was nice to visit somewhere new. Haarlem is beautiful and well worth a visit!

you will find a warm welcome at Bernice and Danny's, in a pretty house close to all amenities.

It was a fantastic place to stay at. Close to the station and nice cafes and restaurants. The house has a beautiful interior, is clean and it’s calm. But most importantly the hosts both Danny and Beatrice so helpful, happy, open and really nice to talk to :) Hope to visit some time again and stay at their place.

A very cosy place to stay! Room is very quiet and seems like a perfect place to recover after a long day. Hosts are very friendly and always ready to give you advice. The whole house is very clean and aesthetically pleasing. You will enjoy your time there!

I had a great stay at this place. The hosts were very friendly and there when needing some advice about trains. I'd definitely recommend it. :) Thanks a lot to the hosts for their hospitality.

Danny and Bérénice are really nice. Do not hesitate to ask them questions they will answer you. Really nice people! Very good stay. I recommend !

Nice room and very nice people . Very good located and connected to Haarlem and Amsterdam

I found that everything was in line with the presentation on the "airbnb" site. The price was really reasonable for a room and a single bed, 5 minutes from Heemstede-Aerdenhout train station and in 20 minutes arrival at Amsterdam Centraal, frequent trains and with the "9292" app it's very easy to plan his trip. So I was largely a winner on the price of housing by being a bit off center in Amsterdam.

Danny and Bernice was a great host, Bernice was super nice! The place was really clean and the bed was sooo comfy I'm drowning in the sea of blankets after a long travelling day! I would recommend to anyone going to visit Amsterdam :)

Excellent host I would go back 1 and 1000 times. Everything was perfect clean central easy access. Beautiful city and not to mention Mark attended us as gods

The house on the edge of Haarlem is completely and tastefully furnished with a garden. We would book again anytime.

The house is perfect for a family: you can enjoy breakfast in the garden, big salon, bikes. It’s quite far from the centre or Amsterdam but it’s well connected: bus is just around the corner. House was perfectly clean and prepared for our visit. Highly recommend!

I was there only for a weekend since I was attending a nearby convention. Really close to the Expo (5min on foot), it was perfect for me. Breakfast was good too!

Next time I will definitely chose this house again. It so nice, warm and clean

A very nice place to stay in.

Anne was an excellent host. The room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. Anne welcomed me in, gave me tips on how to get into the city and to the airport, and was very friendly. The house is just a few minutes walk from a bus line that I used to get around. I was attending a conference at a hotel near the airport and this was an affordable, pleasant alternative to the hotels.

Nice stay, open and welcoming! Very nice, lovely hostess! Nice bed! Centrally located in a nice neighborhood

Anne is a very nice hostess. The very clean accommodation is a very good starting point for cycling or by bus. We had a parking space for the car in the carport and could park the bikes safely.

Maria's house was the most magnificent place I have ever been to. The area is 20-30 minutes away from the airport which is a perfect hub for getting anywhere in Amsterdam, and the bus system is efficient. From the moment I walked into the house I felt welcome and was given a pot of tea and some biscuits. In the morning I was left a nice, filling breakfast, perfect to get me going for the day. Maria treats you like family, which made me feel even better since I was travelling alone.

Maria is an absolutely fantastic host, kind and incredibly helpful. My experience staying there has been superb in all aspects. Highly recommanded!

Thank you for welcoming me! She is so kindly and friendly. I had a great time in her house. perfect host I've ever met.

I highly recommend staying with Maria. You will certainly be satisfied.

Maria made sure my stay at her home was excellent by all means.

From January 1 to January 8, 2020, I stayed at Maria's house. I've been meaning to visit the Netherlands for a long time. When searching for housing, I paid attention to this option. According to the description it matches my criteria. The reality exceeded all my expectations. I travel a lot to different countries. This option turned out to be the best of the kind that I came across. Nice, quiet, clean area. Very good house, with a good interior. The description on the site is completely true. The room is cozy, clean, bright, window with full-length curtains, good furniture, comfortable bed, Desk with table lamp, chair, wardrobe, refrigerator, electric kettle, coffee, tea, cookies. In General, there is everything you need for a comfortable stay. Room with shower and separate toilet in perfect condition. There is a strong wooden staircase between the floors. There is Wi-Fi and free parking in front of the house. Opposite the house is a beautiful canal where ducks swim. Within walking distance of the house there is a supermarket and a bus stop that takes you to Amsterdam, Schiphol airport, Haarlem, Hoofddorp. The bus service interval is about 10 minutes. Thanks to the convenient location of the house relative to the largest cities in the country, during these 8 days I was able to get acquainted with the main sights of Amsterdam, Den Haag, Rotterdam, Haarlem, Zaandam and other cities. But my impressions of the Netherlands would have been incomplete and not so vivid if it had not been for my acquaintance with the mistress of the house, Maria. Very hospitable, friendly, friendly, cheerful, beautiful woman, interesting conversationalist. I got a real pleasure from communicating with her. It is a pity that my lack of knowledge of English prevented this. Maria is very responsive and always ready to help. In particular, when I had a problem with paying parking tickets, Maria did not spare her time, took me to the Bank, helped me pay for everything, and then along the way arranged a small tour of the sea coast in Zandvoort, showed me a beautiful beach. I am very grateful to Maria for her hospitality. I didn't want to leave. From January 1 to January 8, 2020, I stayed at Maria’s house. I have long been planning to visit the Netherlands.

I am very grateful to Maria for the hospitality. I didn’t want to leave.

Staying with Maria has been one of my most memorable and wonderful experiences in the Netherlands. The room on top was clean, comfortable with sunshine and stunning aerial views. The town itself is a quiet place with clean air and surroundings and greenery all around. Daily commodities are easily available in the supermarket nearby. Bus services to Amsterdam, Schiphol, Haarlem and beyond are frequent. Maria was very helpful, jubilant, exuding warmth, care and interest . She has a beautiful home, and a colourful garden. I had a lovely stay.

A hospitable house with many possibilities in the Amsterdam area

Caroline offered an amazing place to stay, the accommodation was so quaint and cosy for a stay in Amsterdam. Great cleanliness and Caroline was very helpful throughout with any questions that I had in regards to my stay. Very pleased with my stay here 😃

Super stylish and clean rooms and a great location! Caroline is very friendly and communication works very well and quickly! Checking in via the key box was also super easy! We recommend!

Well located in Haarlem, Charming, confortable, quiet ( last floor) and separate of the rest of the house. Very Nice bathroom.

Great vacation at Diederik's, very nice location, warm and atypical decor. Very quiet area, punctual welcome. top

Excellent welcome, timeless place, truly exotic, and authentic. Excellent stay, very good kitchen equipment, and the boat is very welcoming. The host is charming, flexible and attentive. The place is off the beaten track, and without the boat we would not have discovered it, so really we were surprised and happy. Close to Harlem, and on the wild side it is really well placed. Please note, these are not real beds, halfway between beds and sofas, but we slept really well.

Beautiful place, clean & comfortable and well equipped! Even better than the photo. Diederik was very caring, helpful and make us feel like home, was a great experience, thank you !!

War einfach super. Just perfect. Do it and book!

Thanks a lot for the amazing time! Great place and would love to return!

We stayed in this houseboat a week and it was a fabulous experience. The house is much more spacious and luminous than it looks in the pics and full of industrial design masterpieces. One of those rare times that the live experience goes over expectations. The children loved watching ducks and swans and picking the small green apples from the tree in the garden and the blackberries that are along the path, real organic food!

Thanks to Diederik and his wonderful house boot we had the best stay on our whole travel time. His boat is really extraordinary and Diederik the most thoughtful and hospitable host. My wife and our 3 years old son had a great stay and enjoyed every minute on the boat (like e.g. jumping into the water in the morning, having breakfast in the sun, etc.)

Great amenities, easy communication, great location. Get up in the morning and hop straight into the water. Any time!

Great little apartment. Close to station. Roos was very friendly.

This apartment is really perfect for a weekend in Haarlem. Super close to the center and on the free bikes you are even faster everywhere. The bed is nice and cozy. The bathroom is clean and we also found it very nice that we could park the car at the apartment. Roos received us very well and she could immediately give some tips for nice lunch, dinner and drinks spots!

Excellent apartment, great location to Haarlem and Amsterdam by train or taxi. Roos is lovely and she can't do more to help you. Must visit.

Roos's place was beautiful and a perfect place to spend a week in Haarlem. Communication with Roos was perfect and she always responded quickly if I had any questions. The apartment is beautiful, functional, very large by Dutch standards, and perfectly located. I can't recommend her place enough. I will be back!

Roos’ apartment is beautiful with a very nice amenities and a great location. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay again if I’m back in Haarlem!

Perfectly situated, very close to the center. Very clean and comfortable place to stay. Reception and communication were outstanding.

Well equipped kitchen. Warm and clean, Roos is very friendly. Although next to a large street it was not noisy.

Roos is a lovely host. Appartment is lovely. Shops are nearby.

Lovely place! Beautifully decorated. Elke was very nice and helpful. Thanks!

Perfect stay in this adorable little house, very clean, well equipped with an original and warm decoration. Free parking on the street and very convenient location of the accommodation. The big plus is the hospitality of Elke, who wanted to welcome us on our arrival, with many attentions in the accommodation (typical cookies, flowers, little note) and finally, Elke speaks many languages including French. We recommend 200%. Thanks again!

This is a wonderful place located very close to many beautiful places that you must visit. As for me, Elke provided full guide of how to get to the house, what to visit, where to eat etc. The house was the coziest place for guests, sparkly clean, furnished with a bouquet of flowers. Elke is a great host who was always in touch helping with every problem. I highly recommend this place for everyone who wants to visit Netherlands!

Cute little house close to Haarlem. Elke was really helpful and hospitable. She even prepared appetisers when we arrived and the 2 bikes were very convenient. Would 10/10 recommend!

We had a lovely stay at Elkes and Willems garden house. Everything was nice and clean and also a cozy interior.

We had some nice days in Heemstede. The accommodation was perfect for us and was very clean. By bus to Haarlem it may take 15 minutes ... and from Haarlem by train about 20 minutes ... So perfect for a city trip to Amsterdam oh zandvoort we went by bike (about 40 minutes) We can recommend the accommodation :-) Many thanks to Elke and Willem :-)

In the cottage in the back garden you will find everything you need. It is fully furnished and with fresh fruit, drinks, candies and flowers, Elke makes you feel really welcome. Above the small living room is a spacious bedroom with a wonderful bed. The bikes are not great (especially the gears), but they are enough to cycle to Haarlem or the beach.

Comfy, cute, homey, and well appointed. Elke was a great host and we would absolutely stay here again. We didn’t have a chance to use the bikes but we were glad for the option!

The Charming House was well appointed with everything we needed, plus a few extras we didn’t expect—like surround sound that connected to our phones via Bluetooth and a crate of board games. We ended every night with a bottle of wine, Scrabble, and our favorite music. The bed was very comfortable and there was always plenty of hot water for the shower, which was appreciated considering how cold it was when we visited. The stairs were a little daunting at first, but we got used to them right away. And the location is fantastic—an easy walk to shops and restaurants in the city center, despite having to do so in the biting wind and seemingly nonstop rain (the umbrella was also appreciated!). Check in was seamless and we were able to park next door in the parking garage. I should have paid more attention to Rudy and Bea’s instructions prior to arriving though, as weekly parking takes a few extra steps. I also suggest you bring Euros with you if traveling from outside of Europe. ATMs/banks are practically nonexistent in the center and the few we found weren’t operable. We finally had to use the GPS in our rental car and go from bank to bank until we found one that was actually still in service, and it happened to be in a hospital! I highly recommend both Haarlem and The Charming House and would absolutely return!

Bea and Rudy were fabulous hosts. Every detail was thought of...from the ease of check-in to local tips to scented oils and candles. Space was exactly as pictured and very centrally located. Our only disappointment was that we didn't get to use the bicycles since it was so rainy and windy. We would definitely recommend.

Rudy and Bea's place was absolutely perfect for a short stay in Haarlem. Amazing communication with useful thoughts about how our time might be most enjoyed. Thoughtful touches and very comfortable. Highly recommend.

Undoubtedly an ideal accommodation to visit the city and surroundings, very good location and the house is very cozy and comfortable with everything you need, the treatment with the hosts is constant for any questions that arise. Highly recommended

Really cool, cozy cottage right in the centre of Haarlem. Definitely recommended.

Nice place as headquarters of your plans to visit Haarlem, cozzy and original style. Location near from any you would like, stores, restaurants, near the canals, and close the historic center, bikes are a great detail, thank you Bea and Rudy!

Great location in walking distance to everything in Haarlem! Comfortable beds and many homey touches like bikes for our use, a terrific music playlist, snacks, beers, and washer and dryer.

Wonderful, welcoming Apartment close to all the good things in Haarlem and Public transport to the City, would highly recommend.

This stay is brand new, well supplied and excellently located, just two blocks from the Haarlem central station. You can bus or train to Amsterdam or other places in northern Holland easily. Highly recommended.

A nice, spacious, tastefully decorated base to visit Haarlem. We were pleasantly surprised by the peace and quiet in the middle of the city.

Nice location, good contact with landlord! Had a wonderful stay

Super nice greeting. We felt very comfortable and will definitely be back. Everything was taken care of and the apartment is furnished with love. It is also only 15 minutes by train to Amsterdam ☺️

Had a 5 star hotel feel to this space. Spotless and prime location.

Beautiful apartment, everything is new and cared for. Highly recommended!!

We had a fabulous time here. Haarlem is a great vase for travel in The Netherlands and this apartment is do centrally located. It is very clean and modern inside, a very elegant space and extremely space efficient. We felt like we were coming home to a cosy nest each day. Just a short walk and you are in the centre of Haarlem with restaurants galore! Another short walk and you are at the train/bus station and, from there, you can pretty much go anywhere. Shelly is a fabulous hist too, replies quickly and always ready to answer any question. We would definitely stay here again.

Excellent stay at Shelly's. Shelly is a very cheerful and pleasant person who tries by all means to find solutions to possible problems. The studio is very clean, new and nice. Ideally located in Haarlem 3 mins walk from the train station, 5 mins from a supermarket. Haarlem is a very pleasant city to visit and only 15 minutes from Amsterdam. Staying there to visit Amsterdam is a cheaper option. Thank you for this very pleasant stay. We recommend this accommodation.

Beautiful apartment, very cozy. Here you feel right at home. Well equipped with kitchen equipment etc. Very lovingly furnished. Great bonus also the two bikes that were included and a nice little garden with sweet benches to sit outside. Hans was a super friendly and nice host. Always available if what would have been. With best regards :) So only to recommend the apartment - there is nothing negative. We will be back definitely !

Hans place was in great location in a very picturesque area with lots of restaurants and bars and wasn't too far from the city of Amsterdam on train. The thoughtful little touches were also a lovely surprise and we loved using the bikes ! Me and my partner had a great time here and would definitely recommend.

Han's place was great. My girlfriend and I just completed a stay and could not have asked for more. The apartment was stylish, clean and eat to get to from the airport. Hans thought of everything and went above and beyond. Even provided bikes to get around the city, which was great! Will definitely stay again

We stayed in Haarlem for three nights. The accommodation at Hans really has everything you need, is super equipped, nicely decorated and cozy, so we felt very comfortable. The two bikes that are provided are really practical. In 20 minutes you can get towards the coast to the Zuid-Kennemerland National Park, which is definitely worth a trip. In addition, the apartment can be easily reached from the train station via public transport. Otherwise we were received very friendly and the contact was uncomplicated. We can definitely recommend Hans' accommodation!

We have been to Haarlem a number of times and this was the nicest apartment we’ve stayed at so far. Hans and Henne have taken great care to provide their guests with all the essentials. Their place gets all the morning sun with a nice view of the river Spaarne. The apartment is very quiet and has a private little terrace at the back. The kitchen contains everything you need and the bathroom is spacious with a very effective shower unit. Everything was very clean and well kept. Buses that take you to Amsterdam and the seaside stop around the corner and a fifteen minute walk takes you to the heart of the city. Hans welcomed us in person, showed us around the apartment and gave us some tips on where to eat out locally, etc. We will definitely come back.

Very quiet and clean apartment.

Han's place really lovely to stay in. The location is great, the view from the window is so relaxing to watch the water and the world go by. Due to the clever layout of the kitchen and bedroom, it felt much larger that in was. Definitely recommended.

Our stay at Hans’s place was wonderful! The house is the perfect size for two people. It is very comfortable and stylish and has everything you could need, including a full-size fridge, cooktop, toaster oven, coffee maker, washing machine, etc. The bed was also very cozy, the heating worked well, and the shower was spacious! There is also a bus stop less than 5 minutes walk from the house making it easy to get to Amsterdam. There are also 2 grocery stores nearby and you are within walking distance of just about everything Haarlem has to offer. Hans is a great host! He is quick to respond to questions and is happy to provide local tips.

Jocé is a great host, room was clean and cozy. Her house is in very friendly neighborhood in a beautiful city. Definitely recommend!!!

Joce is a friendly woman, reacts super fast and is attentive. This was my second time and definitely recommends it for everyone.

Jocé is a lovely host, the room is clean and offers all the necessary amenities. I enjoyed my short stay, with easy access to central Amsterdam and also enjoyed the center of Haarlem a short walk from the house. I can highly recommend staying with Jocé.

Haarlem I really liked, this city is just beautiful! With Joce everything went well and works from check in to checkout.

Neat room and wonderful sleep

I was only stayed for about 5 hours because of my travel schedule, but the place was beautiful in a nice, quiet neighborhood that was easy to make it to central Amsterdam via public transit. It was a great place for me to rest for a bit and the host were great communicating prior to my stay.

Beautiful room in the centre of Haarlem. The neighbourhood is nice and everything you need is close by. Easy check-in and check-out.

Jocé’s place was sparkling clean, neat and tidy and in a lovely location.

Nicole and Erwin's house was a perfect location and space for our small family to spend a long weekend. The place is beautifully done, very bright and sunny, and perfectly located for a Haarlem getaway. It is the perfect spot to feel secluded, yet close to town and anything else you might need. Nicole and Erwin were fantastic hosts, going above and beyond to make sure we were happy, comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed our stay immensely and would absolutely stay there again in a heartbeat.

What a fantastic place. Couldn't find better. The house is brand new with amazing amenities, we felt at home. The location is great in nature and close to city. Erwin and Nicole are great hosts and gave us all the information we needed. We are definitely coming back.

Wonderfully cozy spot on the Spaarne in Haarlem! Really enjoyed it.

Very nice room on a houseboat. The location is great. Annemieke welcomed us very warmly. Communication worked very well. Everything was great all around and we would love to come back.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE EXPERIENCE!!! We will be coming back!!! EVERYONE MUST STAY HERE!

A wonderful place to stay, close to all amenities and it looks neat. It is cozy, romantic and stylish at the same time. An absolute must. The landlords are also very hospitable. Thanks for the stay!

Annemieke & Teun‘s place is amazing! Great location in Harleem, with a good connection to the city center as well as to Amsterdam (trains run every 5-10 minutes). The place really is sparkling clean, has literally every little detail you could wish for to make you feel at home. Loved it!

It is a lovely family with an incredible boat house. I feel so comfy when I had a cup of coffee (provided in the room) and enjoyed the river view (day and night ) in Haarlem. The room is very clean and has fashionable design. I would go back again to live in here ! Strongly recommend!

What a gem of a find! Unique setting, cosy, well thought out space and only a short walk into central Haarlem. Annemieke was very welcoming and all communication was fast. Our recommendation - Stay. You won’t regret it!

Nice place on the water!
