We absolutely loved our stay at Basecamp Amsterdam. It completely exceeded our expectations. The Wikkelhouse House is gorgeous and was much more spacious than we had expected. Our children had bunk beds which were in their own little room. They loved it! It was quiet, cosy and incredibly comfortable and had everything you needed to be self sufficient (should you wish to be, there is also an amazing bio farm shop next door!) - Basecamp does have a bar which serves food and we had delicious pizzas one night. We also had a hot tub which was a real treat! We made use of the sauna (stunning) and the club house (bar and games room) and we also hired bikes. The staff were excellent, really friendly, helpful and very responsive. We really loved being in an urban location surrounded by open space and so much wildlife and nature. We had the most relaxing time here. We made the most of slow relaxing mornings at Basecamp and chose to visit Amsterdam Old town each afternoon which for us provided the perfect balance. To get to Amsterdam centre we used the train (a 5 min drive to Halfweg - with free parking, and then a 10 min journey to Centraal) and on one day we cycled. I would highly recommend Basecamp Amsterdam. We loved it so much! Thank you Basecamp!

Nothing at all.

Wonderful location for a getaway from Amsterdam. Comfortable large room with a nice view and a cute balcony. The bed is extremely comfortable

We have booked the spa barn and were not told in advance that the sauna in the barn was broken and we had to walk to the non-private sauna they have outside. I asked if it would be private still and they said yes but when we still had 30minutes of “our time” there I saw people going to the sauna. I’m not the kind of person to tell people to leave, so I just rolled with it, but I do not think that it’s okay to charge us full price of the spa when it’s not longer private and also not telling us in advance about the sauna being broken. I was really looking to a private experience. Also, all the cups and glasses in the room were really dusty.

+ roomy rooms with a kitchennette, sitting area and the rooftop + the bed was super comfy to sleep on + the whole complex

- the build quality - uneven shower area, water doesn’t flow - simple breakfast - location is not good if you like to visit town (25 mins walking to the nearest bus stop, 30-35 mins bike ride to the city) - reception closes at 21:00

The location is little far from the main city. But it has good connectivity. Bus stop is a 10 min walk and train station is 8 min drive with free parking. The room was very good. Bed was comfortable.A small kitchenette is provided. You can make full meals. Everything is provided. The staff were pretty great in general! The only negative I have for this property is : one of the curtains were off the rack and it was just beside the bathroom. Even though we notified and requested them to look into it at the reception, nobody took action and we had to stay in the room for 3 nights.

The place was perfect as it was in nature. The pod we stayed was warm and comfortable done out to a good standard with nearly everything you could want although a couple of blankets to sit outside would be a great idea but probably they would have provided us with them if we'd asked also a tea towel. They did keep sending messages saying just ask for help with anything if you needed it. I had to get to grips with the hot tap to make tea but they did say they could provide a kettle. Also I wanted to buy eggs for breakfast but couldn't boil them , they said to use the quooker ( boiling tap) to do it buy I was abit unsure however, again I think you can ask them to bring you some kind of cooking facilities but not sure if you have to pay extra for it but the joy is you just got to ask them and they are willing to help.

Comfy beds, great location especially for kids, free parking on premises.

We thought that some (minor) things could be further improved. Regarding cleanliness, the pans in the kitchen were not clean, same goes for certain parts in the bathroom (in the shower). No housekeeping was offered, even though we stayed for 4 nights. Lastly, other travelers should probably be aware that the accommodation does not have blackout curtains/ blinds. Luckily we visited in February and the sun rose after 8 am, but in the summer, when the sun rises at 5.15, I can imagine this would have been an issue for us.

We were a bit hesitant when booking because of some older reviews, but ended up completely blown away. The place may not stand out much from the outside, but inside it’s warm, nicely designed, and super comfortable. We stayed in early spring with just a few degrees at night, and it was cozy and perfectly warm indoors. Comfy duvets, nice bathroom, a small but very functional kitchenette, and the view from the windows was lovely. It’s peaceful too where we only heard birds singing all day. Our dog loved the nature either on the walks or looking through the window. Sure, if you step outside, you might catch road noise, but that’s just how it is anywhere around Amsterdam. For a nature-feel or meditation getaway in Amstellland this place is perfect. The staff were laid-back and welcoming, and we felt totally at home. Breakfast was standard but just right, and we really enjoyed the table tennis and board games. It was our first visit, but definitely not the last.

The hot tub was great and my kids loved the bunk beds. The beach and lake were also a highlight.

When we arrived one of the chairs at the back of the house had fallen into the bushes. This should have really been picked up by the cleaning team. There were also cigarette buds left in the small fire holder which again should have been cleaned by the cleaners. Small issues that didn't really impact our time but they should be checked more closely.

The entire property is really beautiful. It has a very peaceful and relaxing vibe. We booked the Wellness Barn and it was superb - the sauna turns on and off with one button, the hot tub is always on so no need to wait for it to heat up, and the fireplace is a big plus. We came with our dog and it was perfect for him, as there were a lot of open fields and walking paths close by. The staff was really friendly and we felt very welcome. :-)

- The floor heating in the bathroom didn’t work, so it was really cold. Slippers would be a good addition in general. - The café/ bar offers limited food options at hotel prices, and the quality isn’t great (small portions and not many flavors). This was a shame because we didn’t have a kitchen in our cabin and the organic farm restaurant next door does not allow dogs inside (not the fault of Basecamp but it limited our options).

The location was perfect as we were flying in and out. The room set up was pretty cool and the buildings are interesting. It's a beautiful property and must be really nice in the summer season when things are green. The lobby space was cute and a plus to have coffee and drinks on-site.

A better path to the hot tub would have been nice, it was muddy/slippery and not easy to get our kids safely in and out. The room itself wasn't super clean, the garbage cupboard was super smelly and floors could have been much cleaner. We had a small fuzzy visitor in the kitchen that may have been avoided with better cleaning although not surprising given the tiny houses in nature set up with big sliding doors.
