I’ve always believed that the places we live shape the way we feel.
After building several businesses, I realiseer my greatest passion wasn’t simply creating companies - it was creating beautiful homes where people instantly feel comfortable, inspired and at eisen.
For me, every home starts with the same question: ‘Would I love living Here myself?” If the answer is yes, only then does it become part of Boutique Homes in Holland
Every apartment has been personally designed and carefully furnished with a mix of timeless interiors, natural materials and unique pieces collected during my travels. I believe luxury isn’t about excess—it’s about comfort, character and attention to detail.
Whether you’re relocating to Amsterdam, working as an international professional or simply spending a few months in the Netherlands, I hope you’ll experience the city as a local and feel at home from the moment you arrive.
Welcome to Boutique Homes in Holland.

MIXING & MATCHING
🌍 Marrakech, Byron Bay, Bali, Rajasthan, Costa Brava & Ibiza are some of my favourite places in the world.
The colours, vibes and slow living spirit I find there inspire the way I design and decorate my homes. From my villa in the dunes of Bergen to my three authentic Jordaan apartments in Amsterdam, each place reflects a mix of global influences and a boutique hotel feeling — warm, stylish and unforgettable.
Whether you stay in the city or by the sea, I want you to feel at home and on holiday at the same time. ✨
Beyond my passion for design, let me introduce myself.
I’m Leonora. I lived in Bali for three years, I’m dreaming of buying a riad in Marrakech to start a boutique hotel, and Byron Bay, Rajasthan and Ibiza are places that endlessly inspire me. Traveling the world fuels my creativity and sparks new ideas for the homes I create.
I always carry my Gucci glasses. I drink endless cups of tea. People say I’m bossy (and they’re probably right). I talk too much, I rarely get jokes, and I absolutely hate wall-to-wall carpet.
I founded Boutique Homes in Holland to connect with inspiring people and to challenge myself to design holiday homes that feel warm, cosy and unforgettable. My goal? To give every guest that boutique hotel feeling — whether they’re staying in my villa by the sea in Bergen or in one of my Jordaan apartments in Amsterdam.
