Waterfront apartment rentals

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

Apartment on the waterfront A
The apartment was exactly as in the pictures. Good stuff, everything clean and fresh. Beautiful bright apartment. Host Jurgen is great! Super friendly, quickly accessible and flexible. Highly recommended.

De Snelle Jager.
A very pleasant and spacious apartment in an old mansion with beautiful views. Anne and Paul are very welcoming and have all the time and attention for you. I'd love to come back.

Appartement 't Achterdijkje
I really enjoyed my stay in this lovely apartment. It was very clean, comfortable and had everything I needed. The town and surrounding area is quiet and beautiful.

Staying on the canal in the middle of historic Dokkum
Sita's place was perfect for my two night stay in Dukkum. Perfect location and lock box for easy and flexible check-in. Sita was a wonderful host and left a nice welcome gift. Definitely will stay here again when I am back in the area.

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!

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 vacation apartment. The whole apartment is furnished with a sense of detail. But the location surpasses everything! Right on the Sneeker Meer, on the corner of Princess Margret Canal and Starter Eiland. And in the apartment or on the terrace, an unobstructed view of the colorful 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. Sneek itself is just 15-20 minutes by bike.

Detached country house with unobstructed views
A really nice house with good basic amenities and a top modern bathroom! Geertje is very friendly and responds in the shortest time. We felt very comfortable, especially in the great garden. I'm sure we'll be back!

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!

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

Wierums Huske bij Waddenzee UNESCO World Heritage Site
We loved our stay with Mandy! The place was exactly as described. She gave us many local recommendations and was very accommodating and helpful. We loved being in a small secluded town. Short drives to ferry for island visiting and short drive to for restaurants other than the lovely pub in town.

Unique house with Wellness in authentic Farmhouse
We enjoyed the time very much and did many small bike rides. The accommodation is beautiful, quiet and very idyllically located. However, we would not stay in the property again with 5 adults. The loft bed is more suitable for children and unfortunately we were not able to sleep so well, as there was no air coming up under the roof at night (despite the open window) and it became very warm and stuffy. With children, you can definitely recommend the accommodation! :)

't Veenhuys - for 4, with Jacuzzi and view
Very beautiful and sparkling clean cottage in quiet area! Highly recommended. Book the Jacuzzi!

B&B in the Olde place
Great place well worth while if you stay a number of days I was in Harlingen for 10 day and stayed at Michiel place for 5 nights I would have stayed a 6th but I mis calculated my days sign

Our cottage
We had a wonderful stay in Dronrijp. The house is very comfortable for 8 guests. The kitchen is well equipped. We would have loved to take advantage of the outside terraces, but the weather didn't cooperate. Great location for participating in the Fiets Elfstedentocht. Thanks for letting us stay in your home!

Boutique appartement in historic city center
Stay is in a good location to the city center of Leeuwarden. Museums, restaurants and shopping in walking distance. Well cared for stay. Good communication. Nice detail: the photo wall with what the street used to look like. Tip: the Miniature People hiking trail!

Apartment "Little Duimpje"
The hosts Gjis and Sophie were very sweet. If we had any questions, they were immediately available and the location was great. Free parking was right outside the door and also a Spar right next door. The beach was a few minutes' walk away. In the immediate vicinity were also restaurants. Quick access to the highway. The apartment left nothing to be desired in terms of amenities and was lovingly furnished. It was also great that you could connect your smartphone or similar multimedia devices directly to the TV. All in all a nice place and we would definitely come back! Julia and Tommy

B&B Warnser Hoekje
Very nice place to stay. It was amazingly clean and it smelled good. Internet speed is ~200 Mbits, more than sufficient. Johanna was very friendly and was already waiting for us at the property. She always tried to make our stay as nice as possible. Beautiful quiet location. What should possibly be considered for the stay: The bedroom is open. There is no door or similar between the rest of the accommodation.

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

Stylish apartment on Makkum Beach
I absolutely enjoyed my stay in Lily’s place. Tastefully decorated in blue and white, new bathroom, well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, good welcome and instruction leaflet in several languages, great balcony and view of the IJsselmeer and your own parking spot in the back. If you don’t have children I wouldn’t stay in this area during the school holidays as it will be busy and noisy. Now it was perfect, quiet and peaceful and would definetely recommend staying in this lovely apartment.

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
What a lovely waterfront apartment this is! After good and fast communication in advance, the apartment was easy to find. While we already had the login code in our pocket, we were still warmly welcomed. The apartment was exactly as shown in the pictures: clean, very complete, spacious and a fantastic balcony overlooking the water. We really enjoyed the weekend and the good care, and would love to come back here again.
