Welcome to Maridu Holiday Homes: A Unique Legacy Our History: In 1999, our father began the Marianne vacation saga in the Czech Republic, leading to cherished family memories. Over time, as entrepreneurial ventures expanded our holdings, including a renovation and a farmhouse acquisition, the Marianne home was sold. As usage decreased, our properties became a hotspot for guests, turning our cherished experiences into a thriving rental business. Fast forward to 2021-23, the legacy rests in our hands. We, Tim and Dominique, have embraced this inheritance, respecting its origins, and expanding into the Netherlands. When not in personal use, we offer these homes to discerning guests. Czech Republic: Our two-decade-long association with the Czech Republic ensures you get the best. From secret locales in the Giant Mountains to restaurant tips, our digital guide has it all. If we're absent, fret not! Karolina, our multilingual host, along with a digital team, ensures a smooth experience. The Netherlands: The Dutch Veluwe, reminiscent of our domestic escapades, lies adjacent to the Hoge Veluwe National Park. A strategic locale, it's perfect for both local wanderlust and international guests. A haven for nature lovers, it offers a break from urban chaos, placing key Dutch attractions within arm's reach. Join us in experiencing our curated homes. We await your visit! Best, Dominique & Tim Duifhuizen
