This is a cosy home away from home amongst the beautiful canals of Amsterdam! Very quiet and well appointed with everything required in all areas: kitchen, living area and bathroom. Even a small patio off the comfortable bedroom. Included are bikes that Maarten adjusted to fit each of us. Malo and Maarten are caring and conscientious hosts who went out of their way to address our inquiries quickly and thoughtfully. We don’t hesitate to recommend this excellent Amsterdam VRBO.

Perfect in every way
My wife & I were lucky enough to stay here for a few days in April and everything was just perfect. You can’t beat the location for the sites and the home was very well equipped with everything we needed and more. We were supplied with all of the basics and then some with milk, juice, cookies, danishes and plenty more! Milo & Marteen we’re great and offered us some great tips on the local area including which canal tour to take (Frienship Tours). Do not miss this great way to see the city!! Thank you for everything!

Just Perfect
This accommodation was perfect - great location, fantastic vibe, clean, wonderful hosts that supplied some lovely food and toiletries and were extremely helpful. We walked to the station 5 minutes away to get the train to Central and beyond. Just change trains at Zuid (about 3 stops)…the next station is the airport…quicker and cheaper than a taxi. We also walked to the galleries from here - 10minutes. And walked to most places…Ann Frank, Central station, Rembrandt Square. Restaurants and supermarkets around the corner and of course a canal! You need to book when you see the vacancy as it books up quick and no wonder, it really is perfect!

Wonderful apartment with gracious hosts in great neighborhood
We just returned from four fabulous nights at Malo and Marteen's beautiful and well-situated apartment in Amsterdam. The apartment has everything you can imagine you may need including guide books, drawing materials, Netflix access, a safe deposit box, a hair dryer, a washer & dryer, shampoo & body wash, cozy bedding, a well-stocked fridge for breakfast as well as a daily delivery of fresh croissants & bread, and bikes for four! It's honestly one of the most efficient and well-styled one bedroom apartments I've ever stayed in. Our family of four (daughters 12 and 10) fit perfectly into this space. On top of that Malo and Marteen were such gracious hosts. Unfortunately, our younger daughter was quite sick when we arrived, and Malo helped us find the pharmacy, took us to her local doctor, and even offered to stay with our daughter since we were there for a reunion. They responded immediately to every question we had. Marteen helped us get the bikes seats set right and recommended a wonderful steak house for dinner down the street. We're already looking forward to our next trip to stay with Malo & Marteen, and honestly, we couldn't recommend this apartment more highly!

The apartment was well stocked with coffee, hot chocolate, cereal, yogurt, cheese, ham and bread. The street is quaint and quiet yet close the tram and walking distance to good restaurants. We ate in the neighborhood every evening.

Great stay in the heart of Amsterdam!
This was a FANTASTIC stay in the best location!! Perfect for walking to anything and close to a metro station which we used quite a bit. Our only complaint was the listing advertised four bikes for use and there was really only one that was suitable for biking properly, we would have loved to use the bikes that came with the property as we really looked forward to that. Everything was clean and worked, we only had a small issue with the washer/dryer but the hosts were helpful to solve the issue and bring us new towels when ours didn’t dry. We loved this place , especially the snacks and breakfast items provided- such a sweet touch! Highly recommend staying here!!!!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this property. My 17 year old daughter and 15 year old son slept on the sofa beds and raved about their comfort. They also enjoyed watching Netflix before they went to sleep each night. The apartment was beautifully designed and the owners made great use of the space. Maarten met us upon arrival and showed us everything. He and his family live right upstairs, so were readily available if needed. We also appreciated the bread, juice, cheese, etc that was provided. Finally, the street and neighborhood were perfect - quiet and adorable, yet just a few blocks from bustling restaurants. Our only regret is that we couldn’t stay longer than 2 nights!

About the host

Hosted by Malo Zacar

Host profile image
We are a French-American-Dutch family of five, living in the house above the rental unit. We enjoy receiving guests from all around the world and tell them about the wonderful things that Amsterdam has to offer.

Why they chose this property

The house is a unique piece of history. Build during the late 1700s as (I have been told) a warehouse for tea brought from afar, it has a unique charm. It is located in a neighborly residential street in one of the most beautiful parts of the center of Amsterdam. It is set between the Prinsengracht and Lijnbaansgracht canals, and within walking distance from all the major attractions (museums, etc) of Amsterdam. Our plan is to make the rest of the house as beautiful as the apartment we made for our guests.

What makes this property unique

I love the fact of being able to live in the center of Amsterdam, with everything the city has to offer nearby, while at the same time having a beautiful playground for my children (Amstelveld) around the block.
