Rudy and Carol’s house is supremely stylish and very well located in Ijburg, a quiet but well connected small island to the east of Amsterdam. It was perfect for our family of 5 as our adult children had easy access to nightlife and we enjoyed quiet evenings in the beautiful Zen style garden.
We made a couple of trips to Amsterdam (easy and quick on the tram) but spent most of our time paddle boarding and cycling (bikes kindly provided by Rudy & Carol) in the beautiful nearby towns of Muiden, Broek in Waterland and Monnickendam.
In the evening, there are plenty of good quality, local restaurants to choose from and a supermarket very close by.
A stay at Rudy and Carol’s place offers a completely different perspective on Amsterdam and we would definitely recommend.
