Family-friendly vacation rentals in Ouder-Amstel

The location was great, walking distance to trains and trams to get to the heart of Amsterdam. Far enough away to be quiet for nights in. Nancy was very communicative even though she was on holiday. Easy parking if you drive in and plenty of space for 5, especially if someone doesn’t mind the couch. Would be great for 3 couples. Amazing showers 😁

House felt like being at home, loads of space and really clean, Barry was always available if any questions

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!

ACCOMMODATION as described in a peaceful place in the countryside of Amsterdam, the welcome of Sheniva top, beautiful environment, I recommend it.

A cozy beautiful place outside Amsterdam. The pool, the jacuzzi and the green space give you the perfect place to start and end your day after long walks in the crowded Amsterdam. We had to use Uber to go from and to Amsterdam which ended up costing us around 30-35€ per ride. There are instructions about public transport but when we checked online it would take about an hour to commute (we’re thinking maybe we checked at times where the bus was unavailable since the instructions from the host said it would take shorter). The pool and the jacuzzi would definitely benefit from bit more cleaning since the water was bit cloudy. Still, overall , absolutely worth it and we enjoyed our stay.

Our family had a perfect stay. House was beautiful, close to the city by ferry, restaurants on the waterfront and we even got in a swim just 10mins walk from the house. Was great to be able to use the bikes too. Beds were very comfortable and bathrooms modern and clean with great showers.

This apartment is beautiful and pretty much exactly like the pictures. The garden is a fantastic inclusion, the bathroom is as theatrically fabulous as it looks and it was lovely to be able to play the baby grand piano. The increasingly popular De Pijp area is a short walk across the bridge and we spent most of our time there. A fantastic place to stay in a brilliant location - we’ll be back.

Frank is an outstanding host. He provided fantastic and detailed information upfront. The check-in was smooth, and we were provided with local snacks, and Frank set us up with breakfast for our first morning in Amsterdam. This made it very comfortable after a long trip. Whenever we had a question, Frank replied within minutes. We all had a great and relaxing stay. Our kids often asked us if we could stay inside the house rather than going on day trips. That's how much they enjoyed the place and the cute little garden where they could play with water (you have to watch out for tiny kids that can't swim though). In short, it was fun, and we had a good time.

We absolutely loved this place! Martin and his two boys were super kind and helpful. So many well thought out details…..lots of thick towels, robes, romantic lighting, a perfect spot for putting on makeup with a great little mirror. Huge bed that was very comfy. The entire space is very private and very quiet. The outside garden was great! And soooo unique to find. We would definitely stay here again! And next time we would take one of Martins boat tours.

Incredible luxury townhouse, very spacious and packed with everything we needed for our stay. It is located in a quiet neighborhood away from the vibrant city center yet in a very convenient location to either walk or take public transportation to all major tourist attractions and the city center. Just around the corner from a street market, coffee shops and restaurants. The communication with Emilie was flawless and timely. I can't say enough about how great it was our stay. Emilie went above and beyond to make sure were comfortable and had a great stay. She provided local recommendations for food, activities for kids and babysitter services. Highly recommended. Definitively coming back when in Amsterdam.

Robbert was a great host. The apartment is in a central location and was very comfortable. We enjoyed our stay there!

We had 4 very nice days in the idyllic surroundings and the very nice house. There were five of us there and we had a dog with us too. Everything was a great fit. Going to the cottage and exploring the area was also really fun. We would definitely love to come back again. Best regards and thank you. Winkler family

Very nice place in the heart of Amsterdam and yet nice and quiet inside. The loft has an incredibly comfortable bed while there is a very acceptable sofa bed below. There is also another solution for a smaller individual who wants to sleep alone. The kitchen is well appointed, no microwave but everything you really need. Andrew was very responsive, and the lock system works really well, giving multiple people free movement.

Roger’s place and hospitality made the trip to Amsterdam more enjoyable. The location is superb in a quiet area. Clean, spacious & well equipped. Roger was responsive and helpful. Definitely will consider coming back!

Leandros place was in a great location. Next to restraunts and shops. Would stay here again on next visit.

This Studio apartment is perfectly situated in the red light district. In the heart of Amsterdam. Well equipped and clean with easy access to keys on arrival.

Great host and great place. Very special venue, extraordinarily peaceful and comfortable with beautiful surroundings explorable by boat. Thank you Erik for taking such great care of us and being so responsive.

A quick ride from Amsterdam Central to a small harbor off the Main Street. Walkable to all the main attractions in Central Amsterdam and an easy spot to catch an Uber if you want to go further. The houseboat was as described on a quiet dock with friendly neighbors and two awesome houseboat cats Bo and Skipper. This was especially important since we were in town when Kings Day occurred and after a walk around the festivities, it was nice to retire from the craziness and relax on top of the houseboat. The host met us onboard walked us through everything and provided easy contact information for use during our stay. Check-out was a breeze. A great find and a great value!

Perfect for a family stay, we had 3 generations staying. Spaces to share, and separate bedrooms to retreat. Convenient to Tram stop, market and restaurants

Excellent stay for 2 families. The garden with the lake view is just magical. Very quiet. In the countryside and yet close to shops and restaurants. Thanks for lending us the bikes and the boat. It was great to get around on the water. The area is beautiful and within reasonable distance of different cities to visit. Floris is a thoughtful host (Easter decoration, welcome gifts, etc.) and responded to our messages within the day. The house was very spacious and very clean. Authentic charm of an old farmhouse. Thanks for this real break.

We were very lucky to be able to stay with Evelin spontaneously from Friday to Sunday. We liked the place very much. The children loved the daily view into the cowshed. Despite the cow stable, it didn't smell in the apartment. The surroundings are fantastic and you can get to know the country and people wonderfully.

Our stay met our expectations. We own a sailboat and are aware of the space restrictions involved. We enjoy different experiences and this fit the bill. Steven is very helpful and friendly and we enjoyed talking with him. We took advantage of the tugboat tour Steven offers to his guests and this was a more intimate experience than we would otherwise have had on a canal trip in Amsterdam. Steven gave us the opportunity to experience bitter ballen and Skipper bitters at an old Dutch pub. For those who are adventurous and able bodied, this is a stay to put on the list!!

Magdalena's accommodation is set in an enchanting setting. We stayed there several nights with our 7-year-old son. The place is great, there's plenty of space. Access to the bus to reach Amsterdam is simple: 15 minutes walk and 15-20 minutes by bus, very easy and very convenient! By car, we were able to visit the surrounding fishing villages. We would recommend this listing.

We stayed at Marnix and Margot’s place for almost 3 weeks. They very helpful and accommodating and allowed us to check in one night in advance in the evening because our other Airbnb finished and we had small kids and lots of luggage. Also, they went an extra mile and accommodated us with safety gates for our 2 year old twins. That was huge for us. The place was just as described. Renovated, nice, free of clutter. We found everything we needed. The backyard is perfect for spending time with kids. Our girls loved the trampoline and the slide. Having so many bicycles to choose from including the big family bike was an amazing bonus. The hosts were always responsive and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place and the hosts.
