New: Your home in Amsterdam

This ground-floor apartment in Amsterdam’s Oud-West district is a great base for couples or small families who want a local, creative vibe without being in the tourist crush. The 60-square-meter space has its own entrance, a living room with a sofa bed that sleeps two extra guests, a separate bedroom, and a bathroom with a walk-in shower. The kitchen is basic but workable for light meals, and amenities like WiFi, a washer, and essentials make longer stays comfortable. The real draw is the location: a quiet street next to a small park with a playground and children’s farm, plus Bellamyplein square with a summer paddling pool. You can walk to the center in 20 minutes or take a tram or bike in 7, and the neighborhood is packed with indie restaurants and coffee bars that give you a real Amsterdam experience. At around €151 per night and a 4.7 rating from 173 reviews, it’s a reliable, characterful choice for exploring the city from a less touristy angle.

De Baarsjes-Oud-West is a lively, up-and-coming area full of independent eateries, coffee spots, and a relaxed local feel. The apartment sits on a quiet street next to a small park with a playground and a children’s farm, which is rare in Amsterdam. A short walk brings you to Bellamyplein, a cozy square with a summer paddling pool popular with families. The city center is a 20-minute walk or a quick tram or bike ride away, so you’re close to the action but can retreat to a calmer, more authentic part of town.
