Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Gaasterland

Absolutely loved our stay! We were 5 adults plus a 1yo so we loved that there was a large living area down stairs for her to play with toys, plus a baby gate on the stairs. The rooms are very spacious and we felt right at home with everything we needed, it was very warm and cosy. We were there over new years and the neighbours let off a fireworks show around the streets which was fun to see since we were just relaxing at home! The washer & dryer were very handy but will say the dryer took a few rounds to dry our clothes - could be us translating the dryer incorrectly though 😂 The location was good - it’s about a 15 min walk to the ferry then a 15 min ferry to get to central station. Or a 10 min bus then 10 min train into central area. Not the closest stay to the central area but well located for the price! To stay closer would have been expensive. But fine if you are ok for 30 mins travel in each day which was ok for us. The ferry is free, and busses/trains are cheap anyway! 😊

Very good experience.

Fantastic house, exactly as described, beautiful location with bikes to commute along lovely, easy, safe route to train station. Perfect

Elsbeth's place is very nice and comfortable. It has 2 gardens, one in front of the house and one in the back, the parking space and the interior of the house is very well cared for, all in a delightful village just minutes from Amsterdam ( bus 5 minutes walk) or the fabulous villages of Marken, Volendam, Edam. We were also in the company of a sweet kitten and 3 chickens. Fantastic

Very convenient for central Amsterdam - very spacious, safe quiet area with really good transport links

The place was quiet. The cottage was very clean and nicely furnished. So you felt right at home. Victor and his wife were very friendly and always responsive. The property can be fully recommended. There is a lot of beautiful things to explore nearby, such as the center of Edam or the promenade of Volendam. Be sure to travel by bus to Amsterdam. Super easy and you're in the city center very quickly.

We visited Andréia for the second time and it was just as wonderful as the first time. The location on the water is fantastic. The apartment is optimally equipped and sparkling clean. You can plan your excursions wonderfully or just sit and relax by the water and fish. Andréia is such a warm and loving host. I could go on raving here, but I don't think there is anything more to say than that we will come back a third time.

Gerdien’s lovely home worked so well for our 5 adult 8 day stay. In Dutch terms it’s very “gezellig”—cozy. The bedrooms are roomy and beds very comfortable. We especially appreciated the living room/ dining area—is a great common space. Beautiful back yard. The kitchen is well appointed for any cooking needs and coffee maker works well. Appreciated access to the washer and dryer. The home’s centrally located—close to restaurants, shops, train station, and importantly the Rood bakery just down the street. Gerdien is a responsive and helpful communicator. We highly recommend this property.

Great place, was even better than the photos. It’s in a quiet peaceful neighbourhood, but close enough to downtown that it was easy to get everywhere. Host was always responsive and answered our questions very quickly.

The location was amazing. Right in the centre of Amsterdam Mario was a great host. Very informative and helpful The apartment itself was clean, tidy and a good size. Very happy that we chose this and would recommend to anyone

Nice quiet neighborhood, loved the added touch of fresh tulips!

We spent a long weekend with the family in Amsterdam at Dorien's and Jochem. an amazing loft! Everything was perfect. Like at home, but better for everything... a space for parents on the ground floor with large bedroom and shower room. 3 bedrooms upstairs and an exceptional kitchen. A well located accommodation because close to a bus and tram line (direct to the city center - central station) in about 20 min. Restaurants and supermarkets 5 min walk (Lidl, Albert Heinj) and super peaceful. No noise day or night. ideal for family!!! And Dorien and Jochem were very kind and welcoming. They explained to us how the house works etc...and they waited for us on the evening of our arrival despite our 2 hours of delay. They had even left some sweets for us (waffles, chocolate, Chips, fresh beers...) in short, it's a flawless! everything was PERFECT. A big thank you to this family for everything.

Very nice apartment, located in a quiet area near the Oosterpark. A large terrace very nice for the evenings. All 15 min by bike from the train station, museums... Thank you Petra for hosting us and trusting us.

The house Is beautiful, located in a very nice, quiet zone of Amsterdam, near to the centre and very close to western park and many locals. Style of apartament Is very cool, with every electronic device for entertainment. Only thing not good that there Is not space for our clothes inside the wardrobe... But we have find a solution with the chair... José Is a perfct host, Always available.

I absolutely loved my 3 week stay here, it has everything you could need. It instantly felt like home and includes many small details that makes your stay easy and pleasant. You can really tell that Han's has given good thought and care into the space. He is an absolutely wonderful host that I hope to stay with again in the future. The location is amazing, as other reviews has said, it's the perfect distance from the city center/centraal station(10-20min). Even if you don't feel like going that far, there are many delicious restaurants within 1 block. Grocery stores, museums, the zoo and plenty else to do within 3 blocks! During the day the neighborhood is lively and active, but it never feels overcrowded. There's a constant stream of pedestrians, bicyclist, bridge raises, and boats passing in the canal to watch. During the night it a very peaceful and quiet neighborhood. Bonus points for stable and fast wifi and an awesome hot shower. You won't be disappointed staying at Han's😁👍

The hosts were very responsive to all questions and even provided suggestions. The location is about 20-30 minutes to the city center and easy to navigate. The apartment matched the pictures! The apartment was mostly clean, with some dried food on the silverware and plates in the pantry that required us to clean before use. The dishwasher was full of clean dishes, which is nice, but we had to empty to use it. The toilet is separate from the sink/shower, and the room the toilet is in is comically small. If you have mobility issues I would ask for a picture of the toilet before booking. Overall, this is an ok deal for the price and location. The apartment is comfy and cozy, and the hosts being so friendly and responsive was the best part! Thanks again!

I cannot recommend Markus and her rental enough. We were 4 adults including my 84 year old mom and the place worked so well for us. Fantastic neighborhood with restaurants and shops very close; best of all 5 minute walk to Vondelpark for a stroll, a beer or coffee and a respite from the crazy hustle of Amsterdam. Peaceful and well appointed home that was free of clutter. I only realized this was a family home when Markus told me. Separate places to get space. Downstairs bed for my mom (no stairs). I will recommend to friends and family!

This was a perfect stay for my first trip to Amsterdam. The cleanliness, location, and convenience of this unit were absolutely amazing. The hosts were very responsive and extremely helpful by also providing an itinerary of activities, surrounding neighborhoods, and restaurants. Not to mention we were practically right around the corner to one of the best parks in the city that we walked through every single day. Hopefully I can stay here again on my next visit!

This lovely place is right off the park, walkable to restaurants, shops and even to the museums (through the park), and just a 20 min ride to the city center. It's in a VERY family friendly area!! The host is excellent -- very friendly and helpful and quick with responses. The flat is fully appointed and even has a little back patio, but 2 of the bedrooms are quite small, and the stairs between floors are steep!

Words cannot express how lovely Joze’s place was! She met us upon arrival and gave us a tour, and we immediately felt right at home! She was extremely helpful and communicative! The home is located in a fantastic quiet neighborhood with walking distance to everything Amsterdam has to offer! The home is filled with Joze’s artwork and it makes for stunning finishing touches! We cannot wait to come back to Amsterdam and hopefully have the opportunity to stay at her place again! We had the BEST time!

Peter was very friendly and responsive. The place has a very nice backyard, and the appartment is surrounded with many shops and coffees. The location is so good, there’s no need for any transportation, you can walk everywhere. Thanks to Peter for hosting us in this lovely apartment.

Mia was extremely friendly and helpful. The place was cosy and comfortable and In a calm and beautiful area of town. Would definitely go back!

Everything is great. Marcel and his wife help with everything, are very friendly and relaxed. We rented Marcel's electric boat and took a tour of the canals and lake. It was wonderful. Marcel briefed us well. Thanks!

A lovely home which is well connected by the metro close by. Ajay was also very responsive and helpful. The apartment is modern and very clean, can only recommend.
