What is Bed & Breakfast
With a Bed & Breakfast, you rent out a non-self-contained part of your home. Do you have an spare room with its own bathroom, and do you like renting it out to the visitors of Amsterdam? Then having a Bed & Breakfast might be an option for you.
Kobe & Eva"Personal contact is leading throughout the entire process. That is why we welcome guests in person. On a regular base, guests arrive as guests and leave as friends"
Advantages of a Bed & Breakfast
Travelers are increasingly looking for a real and local experience, rather than just a hotel room to stay in. A Bed & Breakfast meet these needs. This way, guests discover new neighborhoods, get an insight into how the locals live, and will feel- and behave less like tourists. locals leven, en voelen zich minder toerist.
Opening up your B&B to travelers has many advantages. The extra revenue is an important asset to most landlords. And next to that, it's also an enriching experience hosting travelers from around the world, all with their unique stories.

Preparation
During the introduction, we can discuss all the possibilities and details of a collaboration and answer any of your questions.
We'll make sure that you are always aware of the current rules and proposed changes with regards to the regulations.
If you haven't got a B&B permit yet, we'll assist and advise on how to inquire for one.
You fill in our B&B form, sharing all details so that we have all the required information to get started. Together we decide on a 'guest-profile'.
If you are new to Airbnb, we'll assist you with setting up a beautiful advertisement. We'll then link our Superhost profile to your advertisement, and we can get started. If required, a collaboration can be set up within 24 hours.
Not yet owning a B&B permit? We'll advise and assist you applying for one.
We'll photograph your B&B. If you want glossy magazine photos, we can hire a professional photographer.
We perfect and optimize your ad. Thanks to our in-depth knowledge of Airbnb and the rental market, we know exactly how to do that best. As professional property managers, we also have insight into all airbnb data. Everything is aimed at getting as high as possible in the search results: a higher "ranking" means more bookings and higher revenues.
In recent years we have received feedback from thousands of guests. Because of this, we exactly know how to anticipate on guests needs and standards which they expect and appreciate when they stay in an Airbnb. We are happy to share this knowledge with you. Happy guests will reward you and us with glowing reviews: 5-star reviews lead to more and better bookings, increasing revenues and the ultimate achievement of the Superhost status.
The nightly rates are regularly redetermined based on various factors such as the rates of comparable B&B's in the area, increasing demand during weekends, holiday periods, events in the city and our own statistics and occupancy rate.
We always offer customization. You cannot leave the determination of the optimal nightly rates to an automated system. After all, there are too many variable factors to be taken into account.
When getting requests from our returning guests or direct inquiries from our extensive network, we'll happily accomodate their stay in your B&B.
We'll adjust the calendar and availability accordingly and determine, with your approval, the optimal nightly rates.
Getting to work
Before we accept a reservation request, we determine whether the guests matches the profile we have set up together. If this is not the case, the guests will be rejected.
It is possible to do the screening of the guests and the acceptance / rejection of requests yourself.
We answer any messages from guests, and handle change requests. For example on the number of guests, dates or length of stay.
We'll take care of all communication with the guests: before, during and after their stay.
Before guests decide to book, they often have all kinds of questions about the B&B and the city in general. This varies from questions about the type of coffee machine in the home, the nicest breakfast spot in the area and how to navigate the public transport in Amsterdam.
Once the reservation has been confirmed, we will send the guest all the details and information with regards to the check-in. For more information about the communication with guests during and after their stay, we would like to refer you to the services “Reception guests | Check in ”,“ Concierge service ”and“ Details ”.
Voor meer informatie over de communicatie met de gasten tijdens en na hun verblijf, verwijzen we je graag door naar de punten “Ontvangst gasten”, “Conciërge-service” en “Bijzonderheden” hieronder.
If you don't have the time (or desire) to clean your B&B at the start of the rental, we would be happy to take care of this. Your B&B is thoroughly cleaned and the beds will get prepared . We also set up the welcome package and the house manual for the guests.
Our cleaning team is flexible and specialized in cleaning private homes. Cleaning professionals who take pride and responsibility in their work.
If your stock is running low, we'll happily restock any items. Coffee, tea, toilet paper, shower gel, shampoo, garbage bags. All of these and more should be available for guests.

We welcome all the guests in person at your B&B.
We personally take care of the key handover, give the guests a tour of the B&B and explain how to operate the equipment (TV, oven, washing machine, etc.). We remind them of the house rules and answer any questions they have. We don't leave until they are properly settled in and happy!
Our extensive 'Made in Holland' welcome package is stanard included. We really enjoy offering a warm welcome to the guests, and we have noticed that our welcome pack is highly appreciated.
Guests who are visiting Amsterdam for a special occasion, such as a honeymoon or birthday, will be treated with a nice extra. For example a written greeting card, flowers and / or a bottle of bubbles.
Each home has its unique features and housrules. We put together a unique, customized and hard-copy information folder of approximately 35 pages for each home. This flder contains information about the home, general information about Amsterdam, ours' (and yours') "must-see / do / eat" tips in the area and the other neighborhoods. We like and also prefer to promote local retailers! ‘must-see/do/eat’ tips in de buurt en de andere wijken. De lokale middenstand promoten we graag!
During the guests' stay, they can contact us at any moment and for any questions. They can contact us, if for example the heating is not properly working, or they if they cannot connect to the internet. In the unlikely event that we cannot resolve it or it concerns something serious, we'll of course report this to you. On average 99% of any issues gets solved by us within a couple of hours. We are available 24/7 for urgent matters. Thanks to our knowledge & experience, creativity and extensive support network, we are always able to find a proper solution for any problem.
With 'the cleaning in between bookings' is being referred to the cleaning between two consecutive bookings. We designate one or more "dedicated" cleaning ladies to a property as much as possible. The B&B is being thoroughly cleaned and checked. The beds are prepared, the welcome pack and the house manual are put into place for the next guests. They will pass us on any specific details after the departure of the guests and we take action in the unlikely case there is anything unexpected that takes additional time of the cleaning ladies.

In some cases, you also need to apply for a environmental permit. For example if the destination is not appointed for renting to tourists.
In most cases you will also need permission from the owners' accosiation (VvE), the insurance and the mortgage lender.
Als u uw woning wilt verhuren heeft u naast een vergunning, per 1 april 2021 ook een registratienummer nodig.
Vanaf 1 april 2021 kunt u dit registratienummer aanvragen via deze webpagina. De registratie is gratis en u krijgt direct een registratienummer.
U moet dat nummer in uw advertenties/publicaties opnemen. Voor mensen die voor 1 april 2021 al een advertentie hebben staan op een van de platforms, geldt dat ze dit ook later mogen doen maar wel voor uiterlijk 1 oktober 2021.
Ben je reeds klant? Dan regelen wij dit graag voor jou, en hoef je enkel het formulier op deze pagina in te vullen.

You may rent out a maximum of 61 square meters, measured according to the NEN 2580 measuring method.
You may only rent out a room if it is part of your self-contained dwelling or houseboat. This means that this room may not be an independent living space with its own entrance, kitchen and toilet.
You must state in your advertisement that you are renting out part of your home and not an entire home.
You must have dedicated bedrooms that are used for guests.
If you are renting the property from a private landlord, you need permission from the landlord.
If you go on holiday, you are not permitted to rent out either guestrooms or your entire home.
Als je gasten hebt, ben je ’s nachts aanwezig in de woning.
