Waterfront vacation rentals in Zaanstad

Our second time at Sebastian’s wonderful Airbnb. This location is perfect as it’s quiet and yet very near the busier sections of town. Sebastian is a terrific host and everything is as described. He is very friendly and makes sure all is well:-) You will not find a better property !

Laura and her husband Arjan were the perfect hosts! Arjan served us breakfast each morning which included a basket of fresh bread, fruits and cheese. Arjan provided us with great recommendations and most especially - showed us how to use the tram system! It is a lovely apartment and they made us feel very welcome.

The apartment was absolutely wonderful, right on the canal with a nice view. Purmerend is a very nice little town with beautiful parks. If you are coming for Amsterdam it is a little inconvenient to get into the city, but still manageable. If you are coming for purmerend I couldn’t imagine a better place for the price. Sandra was very helpful and a great host as well.

Excellent emplacement, nous avons quasiment tout fait à pied. Rue et canal très calmes, environnement agréable. Hôte toujours disponible, réactif et très sympa. Je valide et recommande.

Fantastic apartment, really clean and comfortable in a great neighbourhood: peaceful but walking distance to everything you could need. Loes and Fokke are wonderful hosts, warm and helpful- we had a brilliant few days exploring the city from the perfect base.

Wat een geweldig rustig plekje dichtbij de stad! De ideale plek als je na een uitstap naar Amsterdam in de rust wil vertoeven. Ook heel fijn in de zomer want je kan zwemmen in het kanaaltje voor de woonboot. Verschillende openbaar vervoersmogelijkheden op 10 min wandelen die naar het centrum van Amsterdam gaan. Alles aanwezig in het appartement. Veel hulp van Karin (kinderbedje, kinderstoel voorzien, uitleg over parkeermogelijkheden.

We loved our stay in this character-filled historic house. The apartment is beautiful, spacious and felt private, even though it’s a shared building. The location is excellent and we savored the view of the canal from the big windows. The bed and linens are comfy, crisp and clean, and there were plenty of towels. We even enjoyed hearing a bit of Evert and his students’ violin-playing. (Seriously, I don’t really like violins but the playing was expert and lovely.) Memorable stay!!

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour chez Irma. Le logement est très propre, agréable, bien équipé. L’environnement est très joli. Irma est une hôte très sympathique et réactive. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter !

My friend and I choose to stay here, since it was close to Zaanse-Schaans and Amsterdam Noord. And I must say: It’s the nicest Airbnb I’ve ever been to so far. I’d definitely recommend it to others, who’d like to wind out and relax after a very long day in the city and just wanna feel like home: this is the place. Marjolein has put so much love and detail to make this place super cozy. I really loved it. And the neighborhood feels super safe and there are some cafes close by with a nice view of the harbor. Definitely a must stay place, if you’re looking for a relaxing place. Thanks a lot Marjolein for letting us stay here.

Such a beautiful home, we felt so comfortable. It has everything you need and the kids loved the animals and the trampoline. Gorgeous neighborhood, grocery store down the road. Hot water tap and the ice cubes were really nice to have as well. They really went out of their way to accommodate us and suit our special needs, we really appreciate it!!!

We had a really nice stay at Bjorn and Dina’s Airbnb. The location is nice, and the space was kept clean all at a reasonable price. I would recommend a stay here!

On à passer un excellent séjour, ,cadre magnifique proche de la gare. Logement bien équipé. Bonus vue sur les poules vaches cygnes et lièvres. Merci on reviendra

Very beautiful home with everything you need. It is easy to park if you have a car. Its a nice and quiet area and it does not take much time to get to Amsterdam or Haarlem. Sofie and Roman are very kind and welcoming people.

We spent a surprise weekend getaway (Friday to Sunday) with a group of six women and this Airbnb was truly a hidden gem! The space is absolutely beautiful and filled with so much love and attention to detail. We even cancelled our dinner reservation on Friday just to stay in and enjoy the atmosphere, that says it all! Everything ran smoothly, from check-in to check-out. The communication and instructions were excellent, making everything super easy and relaxed. The hot tub was a real highlight and worked perfectly! The cats on the property are incredibly calm and sweet! you barely notice them, except when they come by for a little cuddle. We had an absolutely wonderful time and would come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

Boho, eclectic and full of personality . We really liked this house. Still a bit rough round the edges but the overall feel is great. Working fire, wood to burn, garden access, a well stocked kitchen with a few essentials like some spices and oil. Great cooker. A steep set of stairs to the bedrooms and apart from a lack of upstairs loo everything was fab. Beds comfy, clean bedlinen and spaces. Again full of character and sympathetic to the old building.

Ne ratez pas le caractère insolite du logement de rob. Nous y avons passé un excellent séjour. L'accessibilité du studio en train depuis amsterdam et parfaite !

This apartment was amazing for our quick trip to Amsterdam. The location is perfect—right on one of the main canals and walkable to everything. Helena was such a gracious host and gave us some great recs for vintage shopping, drinks, and eats. The space was well appointed and she was so flexible with our arrival and departure times. I would 100% recommend this place and would stay here again on a future visit.

Das Haus liegt in einer wunderschönen und ruhigen Umgebung. Es ist für Naturliebhaber leicht zu erreichen und dennoch nur 25 Minuten vom Stadtzentrum Amsterdams entfernt. Wir vermissten lediglich eine größere Spüle zum Abwaschen des Frühstücksgeschirrs. Insgesamt war es aber eine sehr sympathische Erfahrung.

We had a great stay! Hugo was easy to contact, gave us many local recommendations, and easy to follow directions. The place was clean, had a great view, and is on a quiet street. Location was great, very walkable to all of the main tourist attractions. We were worried about not having a tv but didn’t miss it. Just a heads up to people in the U.S.-bring wash cloths to Europe. All 3 of the Airbnb’s that we stayed at did not provide them. I read that they consider it a personal item, like a toothbrush, and expect you to bring your own. Thank you Hugo!

Beautiful apartment with everything we needed. Communication with Deborah was great.

This place was wonderful! It was just as described. We enjoyed listening to the birds (wild parakeets and others) as we sat on the balcony in the mornings. The stairs are steep and narrow but that is just part of being in Amsterdam. One thing to note, there are 2 showers, 2 sinks, but only 1 toilet. It didn’t cause any problem for me, but those staying in the first floor bedroom will have to climb up stairs in the middle of the night. Overall, I highly recommend!

We enjoyed staying at Fleur’s apartment. It is very close to a tram stop which made it easy to get around, and it was well situated between the main areas of the city, making it a good base to explore from. The apartment was nice - it had everything we needed for a couple days in the city. The only thing to note is that the stairs within the apartment (from living area to bedroom) are narrow and steep, but this seems quite typical of stairs in this area- the same was true of stairs in restaurants in the area. Overall we had a great stay and I would stay there again!

Morningstar is a beautiful place to stay. The apartment is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The location could not be better. It is right across the canal from The Ann Frank house. There are many wonderful cafes and restaurants nearby. The hosts have thought of everything. I would highly recommend to anyone!

prijs-kwaliteit was heel goed. De woonkamer was gezellig, lekker op temperatuur en van alle gemakken voorzien. We zagen ook recente updates van de woonkamer en de badkamer is vast de volgende ruimte die vernieuwd gaat worden. Dan is het echt helemaal een pareltje! Lekker warme douche, maar wel vlot douchen ivm beperkt warm water in de boiler. Prima te doen hoor. Keuken volledig uitgerust, niet alles gebruikt maar lekker uit eten geweest. Dat kan heerlijk op het strand of bij 'Klein Zwitserland'. Het strand is echt super dichtbij, 5 minuutjes over het duin. Ideale locatie om tot rust te komen en te genieten.
