The Oranges

The Oranges: North Holland

This zesty apartment in the Plantage district is a chic find for a trip to Amsterdam. It's bright and cheerful, with large windows providing views of the tree-lined street below. The design is minimalist, with crisp white walls and modern furniture, but there are still traditional touches like the exposed wooden beams. Hop on a bike to explore – it's the Amsterdam way – and you’ll find museums, parks, bars and restaurants alongside the iconic canals. In the evening, mix yourself a cocktail in the sleek kitchen and put your feet up on the vibrant orange couch. If you need to catch up on some emails, we love the natural light and desk space that make working remotely a pleasure. And the shared amenities, including a courtyard and gym, make this a great long-term option too.

Home truths:
*One pet is allowed, but you'll need to speak to your host before you arrive
*This home is part of a hotel – the lobby and communal areas are shared with other guests of the building
*The host has several very similar homes in the same building – the exact layout, views, and design of your home might vary slightly from the photos
