We had a great stay in Marjolein and Jan's house. They are very kind and welcoming people. We enjoyed the canal tour that Jan gave us in the city and the local neighbourhood together with the stories. The most valuable thing when visiting another...

We had the happiest stay here! The highlight was the little red canoe. Marjolein is such a wonderful host, she received us warmly, kept checking the forecast for us and had the canoe ready after the rain. Drifting along the canal the three of us...

The location was perfect for our needs. Easy tram, quiet neighborly vibe. Laying on the bed made you feel like you were in a jungle because of the lovely garden the hosts have created.

Close walking distance to a tram stop, the porch on the water is a great place to sit, the kitchen is small but had what we needed. Our host was onsite when we arrived and provided access and a walk through of the place. He also took us for a a...

Beautiful setting looking out over the canal. Very quiet. Has a nice deck and outdoor seating area. Nice shower, comfortable bed. The proximity to public transportation is great. But most of all, the hosts were amazing. They made us dinner twice,...

I loved the beautiful view of the canal (right out the patio door!), where I was able to bird watch while relaxing. The room was very close to the tram to central station (about a three minute walk). I really like staying in residential...

The place looks like a little quiet oasis very close to the busy town center. It was definitely one of the best places in which we stayed in Amsterdam, and we went there many times. Marjolein and Jan are very hospitable and friendly. Highly...

We absolutely loved the location. Everything was so close by, including a tram station that made it super easy to get around Amsterdam. We also really enjoyed the accommodation itself. It was comfortable and cozy in every way. For three days, we...

This unique, rustic space by the water on the ground floor of our waterfront villa is completely private and offers everything you need. If you’ve booked breakfast, you’ll receive a voucher for 'De Bakkersfiets', an excellent bakery offering local products and delicious Illy coffee (5★ on Tripadvisor). You can enjoy your breakfast there or take it to go. Of course, our B&B is fully equipped for preparing your own breakfast, with a coffee machine, kettle, fridge, toaster, microwave, plates, and cutlery. There are no cooking facilities, however. Just a 3-minute walk away, you’ll find a shopping center with two supermarkets, a bakery, fishmonger, and butcher. On Saturdays, there’s a market with fresh products. Nearby, there are several breakfast spots, including 'Bagels & Beans', 'De Bakkersfiets', and 'Espressofabriek'. We have dining tables both inside and outside, so you can enjoy our beautiful garden and the view over the water. The room is modernly furnished (Dutch Design) and features a large sliding door that opens onto the garden and the floating terrace. From here, you can explore the water-rich surroundings in a two-person canoe. There is also a small dock where you can moor your boat. Parking in the garden is free. The studio is non-smoking; you may smoke outside, but hash or other drugs are not permitted. Quiet hours are from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM.
We (Jan & Marjolein) are both designers and run our own design label: DOGGERdesign. We love creating a pleasant and inspiring environment. Jan enjoys designing gardens, and Marjolein works on theatre, musicals, and interior design projects. For several years, we’ve been running ROOM WITH A FEW, and we love meeting guests from all over the world. Weather permitting, we enjoy organizing boat trips around the area, or you can join Jan on a boat ride from the B&B into the city. He has plenty of fascinating stories about Amsterdam’s history along the way. We look forward to welcoming you soon to our unique and beautiful place;-)
IJburg is a modern neighborhood with interesting architecture, just 15 minutes by tram 26 from the historic city center. It is a peaceful, green, and water-rich area with canals, a harbor, and two beaches. You can swim, sail, kitesurf, or go canoeing. There is a large park with sports fields, walking and cycling paths, playgrounds, and a small farm with horses, pigs, goats, and chickens. The harbor has cozy terraces and restaurants, and there are several take-away options. It’s the perfect base to enjoy both the tranquility of nature and the buzz of the city.
