Waterfront holiday rentals in Zaanstad

Lovely apartment & within walking distance to city centre. The host gives clear instructions, is always responsive, & goes the extra miles to ensure our stay was as pleasant as possible — highly recommend!

Great place to stay, clean and cozy – we felt right at home! ☺️ The communication with Sandra was great. With the Amsterdam Region & Travel Tickets, it was super easy to get to Amsterdam. Great connections. Absolutely recommended!

This is a terrific location in a nice area of the city center, right along a pretty canal. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. The central train station is a 10 minute walk. The apartment has a relatively large living space with a bedroom area and convertible sofa. There was plenty of dishware and utensils for dining at “home”. There was also a washing machine but no dryer, so we did not use the washer but it was available with clothes pins etc. for hang drying. The bathroom had a clean shower with nice hot water and plenty of supplies like soap, shampoo and conditioner. Douwe was extremely responsive to our needs. We arrived early but he generously allowed us to check in while he finished cleaning the bathroom. He made us feel that he’d be available if we needed anything. I would definitely stay here again on a return trip to Amsterdam.

A top accommodation, a whole experience

This was a beautiful place. It was much better than I imagined. It is the first Ike staying at a boat house and I don’t think we could have got a better experience. Both Rob and Karin were very responsive and took care of our needs immediately. The bedroom above is very spacious. Only thing to note is that the bathroom is only downstairs. It worked out fine for us. I highly recommend this place for a stay for max 3 people.

Everything was perfect! Evert’s apartment was great! Highly recommended!

It was an incredible stay, dead center between Amsterdam Centraal and Amsterdam Zuid stations. 5ish minute walk from Tram and Metro, beautiful canal views, and the restaurant Red next door is incredibly good. Can’t recommend it enough.

Very pleasant accommodation for a couple and 4 teenagers. Easy travel to visit Amsterdam , beautiful walks, several restaurants nearby. We would recommend it.

We felt very comfortable in this beautiful place. Fortunately, we were even able to check in directly upon our arrival in the afternoon and not only at 6 pm. So we still had time to explore the magical place on foot before taking the bus to Amsterdam in the evening. Public transport is highly recommended here and is completely okay in terms of price. All in all, we would book this place again. Haico was very friendly and explained everything to us well and understandably.

We’ve enjoyed staying at Gerrit’s place. Host was friendly and communicated well. House has a lovely little garden 🏡, and beautiful surroundings 🌳🏡. It’s a peaceful neighborhood! highly recommended :)

We had a great time at the cottage in Landsmeer! Everything was great – the house was very clean, well equipped and cozily furnished. The location is quiet yet close to Amsterdam which was perfect for excursions. The hosts were friendly and helpful. We felt completely comfortable and would be happy to come back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, the accommodation was perfect, spacious, clean, well presented, comfortable. The games room and bikes were a nice bonus. The location was great for Amsterdam central, Leon and his family were happy to help with taxi service and it made it a super easy experience. It was also nice to come to a much quieter area to stay and escape the busy city. Leon answered all of our questions, explained everything well, you couldnt ask for more from an air BnB stay.

Great host and beautiful home!!

We had the perfect stay at Monica’s apartment! It was just as beautiful as in the photographs, walkable location to everything central and super easy to find. Monica was very helpful with letting us drop our bags off ahead of check in & was responsive throughout our entire stay! We would definitely recommend and stay again. Thank you very much!

We loved this Airbnb and it was the best of a few we've stayed in throughout the Netherlands. The outside area was peaceful and beautiful. The house well stocked and comfortable and extremely well decorated. Michelle was great to communicative with and we highly recommend

It was such a beautiful stay ! The Weather was Great and we enjoyed the Weekend Outside

Helena is a great and hospitable host and she made us feel welcome right away. The location is hard to beat, with tons to do in the immediate area and all of the major areas of the city reachable within a 30 minute walk.

We can highly recommend Ingrid’s apartment in Amsterdam North. Ingrid was very friendly and personable. She sent clear instructions prior to our visit on how to find the apartment. We took the metro from Amsterdam Central station and then walked to the apartment which took about 20 mins. The apartment itself is very comfortable, spotlessly clean, and in a quiet residential area, though there are quite a few passers by and cyclists but this was not a problem at all. One feature is Ingrid provides the use of two bicycles which are brilliant, it meant we could cycle into central Amsterdam via the free ferry in about 15 mins. Ingrid also provided recommendations for local restaurants/cafes which was helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would have no hesitation returning.

Such a great weekend in Amsterdam in this spacious apartment, very well located on the banks of the canals.

Hugo was very helpful. The place was great . Location was really good . We had a great time and highly recommend staying here. Thanks Hugo .

We had a great stay at Joze’s Amsterdam apartment!! Great communication with the owners, a lovely natural light apartment with balcony and easy transportation options ( 2 tram lines within a 6 minute walk). Joze makes it very clear about the steep canal house stairs. The two flights are steep but there are lights and railings which I appreciated as I’m in my 70’s. We loved our stay in this peaceful neighborhood.

Where to begin? The location is devine, it is on the fourth canal so it’s still touristy but feels like a more local experience. It is right across from this gorgeous church and the bells sound lovely. I actually feel like this Airbnb is underrated. Could I give it 6 stars? The pictures of the Airbnb don’t have a good photo of the back courtyard, but it had lovely birds chirping and parrots as well as purple, orange, and red flowers. One night my mom and I had a dinner out there and it was splendid. The location is also almost right across from the Anne Frank Hous and I can’t believe the reviews don’t reflect that because it was so convenient getting to. I’m also an avid runner and the area, although full of pedestrians and bikers, was the perfect runners paradise. There was so much to see and it made me feel like I got to know the city more intimately. The host was also so nice when we first arrived and told us about all the amazing things Amsterdam has to offer!

Great stays. Perfect area to ride an e-bike (we were able to easily charge them in the accommodation) Supermarket near you

We had a fantastic stay at this flat! It looked exactly as shown in the photos—clean, spacious, and beautifully decorated. The location was perfect, just a short 5-minute walk from our daughter’s place, which made everything super convenient. Access from the street was straightforward, and the lift to the 3rd floor made getting in and out with luggage easy. Communication with the host was seamless and quick, which we really appreciated. We felt comfortable and well taken care of throughout our stay. Highly recommend this flat, and we’ll definitely be back!
