We (a family of four) spent a lovely week at Anneke's spacious home. Upon arriving, we were greeted by a pair of very friendly cats who were waiting for their dinner. Taking care of and spending time with the cats turned out to be one of our favorite parts of our stay, especially for the children, who don't have pets at home! The house was a great starting point for our daily excursions by ferry into the busy center of Amsterdam - riding the ferry back to this quiet neighborhood after a hectic day of sightseeing was always a welcome part of the day. A well-stocked supermarket is just around the corner and there are kids' playing areas and a football field right outside the front door. We found a parking space in front of the house. So, all in all, very convenient and a great location for families. We felt right at home and would definitely consider going back next time we visit Amsterdam!
