Pousada Laguna

Pousada Laguna is a wonderful budget option just across the street from the white sands and blue waters of Praia do Foguete. The hotel is much like a beach club, with a large outdoor space where kids can play, a heated outdoor pool, and all-day restaurant and bar. Breakfast buffet is included in the rates, and free Wi-Fi and beach gear to borrow add to the value. The 40 rooms are divided into charming Deluxe Rooms with hammocks and whirlpools or Standard Rooms with bunk beds. Note that there are some maintenance issues throughout and parking isn’t available. As a nearby alternative, Pousada do Albatroz has free parking and a wider variety of room options. 

Hotel Museumzicht

Hotel Museumzicht is a tiny, family-run property providing 14 charming, if basic, rooms. Located directly across the street from the Rijksmuseum, this hotel is an easy walk from all of Amsterdam’s top museums, and offers easy access to both the city center, public transport, and the airport. Its 14 clean rooms are small and simply decorated in an old Amsterdam style, with hand-picked furniture from auctions and local markets, and just the most basic amenities — a closet, a bed, and a chair or two. All have sinks in the room, but only three rooms have private bathrooms. Free tea and coffee are always available in a charming lounge with books and big windows, and continental breakfast with eggs is served there every morning at no extra charge. It’s worth comparing rates with the more modern Boutique Hotel View.
