Family-friendly vacation rentals in IJsselmeer

We had a wonderful stay at this fantastically beautiful house in Eefde! The accommodation is not only super stylish and furnished with a lot of love for detail, but also incredibly cozy – you immediately feel at home. Everything was sparkling clean and perfectly prepared. Surrounded by fields, you really live in the middle of nature and can enjoy the absolute peace. Never before have I experienced an accommodation that was even more beautiful in real life than in the photos! We were particularly enthusiastic about the loving, local welcome gifts such as fresh apple juice, beer and homemade jam – such a warm gesture! The hostess is very friendly, helpful and available at all times. For us, it was an all-around perfect experience, and we would come back anytime. Thank you, Aljanneke! 🤗

Fred and Kelly’s place is absolutely wonderful. We stayed because the price was better and there was a little more room than many places directly in the city. Though we looked forward to it, we didn’t expect to fall in love with it…and we did! Staying outside of the city is pretty great. It’s a 10ish minute walk to the train station, and then an easy navigation to wherever you need to go. We didn’t mind the “commute” a bit, and it was nice to start off and wind down in a quieter setting. The place itself is well kept, clean, and cozy. The beds were comfortable and the shower was hot with good pressure. We enjoyed casting Netflix on the TV with the fireplace on in the evenings, and we spent a couple of mornings in the garden. We booked this spot our entire stay, but also spent one night in Amsterdam to experience “city life,” and also spent one night in Utrecht. These were perfect additions to our home base plan. I’d definitely stay here again!

We stayed in the apartment for a weekend and felt very comfortable. With the bikes you could easily reach the nearby metro station and we had a good time in Amsterdam. The landlords were very friendly and always easily accessible. I highly recommend this place for Amsterdam stays.

absolutely recommended! The tiny house is quietly located and surrounded by beautiful nature, and equipped with every comfort. Jurjen and Barbara are also a very nice and friendly host.

Had a great weekend. Enjoyed the nice garden with various seats and of course the wellness. Cottage really has all the comforts and the bed was very comfortable. Beautiful quiet area and a 20-30 minute drive from various nice cities. Joop and Thea are very friendly and are there for you immediately. In short, highly recommended!

Beautiful cozy farmhouse with very good facilities . We greatly enjoyed with our group of 10 people!

My family and I had such a wonderful stay on Richard En Birgit's boat. An absolutely perfect location, so many things to do, and so walkable. The boat was so clean and provided the right amount of space for our stay. Thank you so much for hosting us!

We had a fantastic long weekend.

Great position! Great starting point for exploring Amsterdam. The apartment was cozy and bright, nice to have a terrace to chill and get some air. Martin was a great host, very welcoming and helpful. He made sure we had everything we needed. Even got us some welcome drinks and cookies!

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 directly access the lake via a ladder. We were already there for the second time and would be happy to come back.

The space is particularly nicely located. The surrounding nature is overwhelming. Short walk to restaurants and beach. Shopping in the village. Nothing negative to report. The house should not be booked by people who have mobility problems. The bed is a bit adventurous to reach via a steep ladder and you can only move very bent over in the attic. Otherwise, the pretty garden house is very high quality furnished and of course great for sauna lovers.

I just love the area, so that's why I chose this place. It's an adorable little cottage on their estate, with plenty of peace and quiet. In terms of amenities, I didn't miss anything. Well, actually if they added a screen to one of the windows for some bug-free fresh air, that would be fantastic. But it was a serene setting and I could take walks close by in the beautiful surrounding woods. They had a nice big desk for me to work on. Shops and restaurants aren't that far away, either.

Wonderful place, great location, met all our expectations! Would stay again.

how can we not start without talking about Erik... someone who is attentive to these tenants. Before, during and after the reservation, he is always available and attentive: thank you! The accommodation is ideally located in Volendam and fully equipped. We had a great week with our dachshund... dog friendly Erik 😉

Great place to unwind. Super spacious and cosy place that's also good for kids. Lots of toys available, highchairs and cott / kids bed. Tons of sights to see and things to do in the surroundings. Would definitely recommend this place to others!

Astrid’s place was an absolute gem and worth every cent. It’s just outside of Amsterdam - in a beautiful part of Zaandam, close to shops, busses and the historical (and magical!) Zaan Schasse area. We were able to party hard in Amsterdam, and catch the train and bus back late at night without issues. We would also go into Amsterdam for the day, and then retreat back to the cabin for cozy, quiet nights. You get a feel for Dutch city life and Dutch suburban life here, and we are so glad we chose Astrid’s place. PS - the cabin is a near a cocoa factory - so every morning you wake up to the whole area smelling like chocolate! Big win.

A week of relaxation among the bustle of the birds. In rainy weather, there is plenty of space inside and in nice weather a very pleasant garden to sit in. Nearby, there is plenty to do, shops are close. Everything is available to cook for yourself. Baking pizza in the pizza oven was also fun to do. Definitely recommended. We felt comfortable.

We have now spent our vacation in Annet's apartment for the second time with our children. The accommodation has enough space and is lovingly furnished. Annet is a great host. She is accommodating, friendly and we felt very comfortable in her apartment. The campsite offers many attractions and play opportunities for children. Thank you Annet for your hospitality!

Great location. Walking distance to Cocksdorp. At the edge of the park, therefore a nice view and tranquility. Easily traveled by car. Three bathrooms, so good for groups (in our case three families) and yet privacy and private place.

We enjoyed this beautiful place very much! Everything was perfect, our hosts were very helpful, they always responded to our requests really fast. Location is absolutely stunning, beautiful nature, so peaceful and calm! We recommend this awesome place 100%!

Really a nice and cozy stay with a lovely view on garden and nature. You can walk onto the heath in no time. Everything that is needed is also present in the garden everything perfect. The outdoor kitchen can also be used with rain due to the spacious canopy. Friendly hostess who also responds quickly to the app.

Our first airbnb experience and it couldn't be better. The stay is perfect. Beautiful, spacious, neat, clean and all necessities and more are present. Clear and quick responses to questions. Next year again!

We felt very comfortable in the chalet from the beginning and had a great vacation. The chalet is very appealing and well equipped, so we cooked a lot. The location at the campsite is very good. The communication with Marinus was very straightforward. We also liked very much that we could use the season ticket for the outdoor pool on the campsite and went swimming every morning. Ameland is a beautiful island. We really recommend the chalet.

Upon arrival it was already clear: this is going to be a great stay. Very friendly people in the area, beautiful nature, much to look forward to, with regard to upcoming activities in the days after. If you don't want activities in the area: you will completely relax at this location. Communication with the owner went smoothly, and quickly. In short: this is recommended!
