Holiday-Chalet Westwind 4p. Amsterdam & Beach

A short distance from scuba diving, motor boating, and more, this smoke-free chalet lets you experience it all. Jump into your car and make short work of the 18-minute drive to IJsselmeer or the 22-minute drive to Cheese Market (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime). After you return to this 592-sq-ft chalet, you can unwind by the communal pool or sip a drink in the garden; you may also like the porch or lanai and outdoor furniture. For a change of scenery, come inside and enjoy the WiFi and cable/satellite TV. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a dishwasher, as well as a coffee maker and cookware. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper. And thanks to the washer and dryer, you'll even be able to travel light. Other amenities include bed sheets, an ironing board, a safe, and heating.
