The Space:

Antwerp's waterfront has a particular pull in early summer — golden light settling over the Scheldt, the MAS tower catching the last of the evening sky, and a terrace with a front-row seat to all of it. This two-bedroom apartment in the heart of Het Eilandje puts that view at the centre of your stay, whether you're sipping morning coffee outside or winding down after a day in the city.



Living space

Large windows frame the Scheldt River and the MAS museum from inside the living room, so the view follows you even when you step back from the terrace. The open-plan layout connects the living and dining area in a way that feels generous without being impersonal - comfortable seating, room-darkening shades when you need them, and a dedicated workspace for anyone who needs to stay productive. A TV rounds out the space for quieter evenings in.



Sleeping arrangements

Two bedrooms, each fitted with a double bed, provide restful accommodation for up to four guests. Extra pillows, blankets, and full bed linens are included, along with hangers and clothing storage so you can properly unpack rather than live out of a suitcase.



Kitchen & dining

The fully equipped kitchen handles everything from a quick breakfast to a proper sit-down meal. You'll find a refrigerator, freezer, oven, stove, microwave, dishwasher, and hot water kettle, along with cooking basics, dishes, silverware, wine glasses, a coffee maker, and coffee already provided. A toaster and a full set of pots and pans mean you're not searching for what you need.



Bathroom

The bathroom features a walk-in shower and is stocked with shampoo, conditioner, body soap, shower gel, and a hair dryer - the kind of detail that makes settling in feel easy from the first night.



Outdoor terrace

The large terrace with outdoor furniture is the standout feature in summer. Facing the waterfront, it's well-suited to long evening meals, a glass of wine after sightseeing, or simply watching the light change over the river. The apartment's waterfront position means the terrace earns its space every single day.



Practical extras

The building has a private entrance, an elevator, and free underground parking on the premises - a genuine convenience in a city-centre location. A washer and dryer are available in the apartment. For families, a high chair, baby bath, and window guards are provided. The lockbox system means self check-in is straightforward on arrival.



The neighbourhood

Het Eilandje is one of Antwerp's most characterful districts - a former harbour quarter that has grown into a hub of restaurants, cafes, independent shops, and cultural landmarks. The MAS museum is a five-minute walk away, with panoramic city views from its rooftop. The historic harbour area is close enough to explore on foot, and tram stops within a few minutes' walk connect you easily to the rest of the city. In summer the whole neighbourhood comes alive, with waterfront terraces and a pace of life that makes it easy to spend a full day without going far at all.



Pets are welcome at this property.
