A villa has something that is difficult to put into words. The calm, the space, the light streaming in through large windows. A luxury home often feels immediately right as a setting, for photography, for film, but also for a special event.

At Loes op Locatie, we have been working since 2009 with a carefully curated portfolio of exceptional homes within our selection of film locations in the Netherlands. Villas form an important part of this. They offer space, privacy and atmosphere exactly what you need when visuals truly need to speak.

In our overview of characterful locations, you can see how diverse the selection is. If you prefer to search yourself, you can easily create an account and browse the current listings. Prefer personal contact? Get in touch and we will be happy to think along with you.

Rent a villa for a photoshoot

A villa is a popular choice as a photoshoot location and for good reason. The space offers freedom. Daylight creates soft transitions. And the high-quality finish means very little is needed to create a convincing setting.

Why a villa works as a photoshoot location

A villa often offers:

• Large living spaces with natural light
• Open kitchens and living rooms with multiple angles
• Peace and privacy for crew and models
• Gardens or terraces for additional variety
• Sometimes a villa with a pool for summer campaigns

Many photographers deliberately choose to rent a dream villa when working on an interior shoot or fashion campaign. A luxury home immediately gives the visuals a premium look.

We are often asked: what does a photoshoot location cost? Pricing depends on the size of the villa, the duration of the shoot, and the number of people on site. We explain this in detail on this page.

Within our selection of Dutch film locations, you will find, for example, modern glass villas in Rotterdam with open spaces, as well as rural homes with warm materials. Some villas are listed among our characterful locations because they have that extra distinctive appeal.

A villa is also frequently used for video productions, meaning the same location can serve as a video shoot location as well.

Renting a villa for video productions

For film and commercials, space is essential. Cameras, lighting and sound require freedom of movement. A villa offers that flexibility.

Villa as a video shoot location

A villa is regularly used for:

• Commercials
• Online campaigns
• Interviews
• Corporate videos
• Social media content

Within our network of Dutch film locations, villas come in a wide range of styles; minimalist, classic, or contemporary. Some productions deliberately choose a villa with a pool to combine indoor and outdoor scenes.

Renting a dream villa for a film production also means considering practical aspects:

• Parking availability
• Sound environment
• Equipment access
• Layout of the spaces

We know our locations well, which helps us quickly determine whether a villa is suitable as a full film location or specifically as a video shoot location.

Renting a villa for an event

Villas are also frequently chosen for exclusive gatherings, such as product launches, business dinners or private presentations.

What makes a villa suitable for events

A villa offers:

• A personal atmosphere
• Multiple spaces for reception and presentations
• Outdoor areas for informal moments
• Privacy compared to public event venues

Organizers sometimes combine an event with a video shoot to capture atmosphere footage. The setting remains the same but gains an additional purpose.

Cost questions also arise here: what does a photoshoot location cost or what does it cost to rent a villa for part of a day? We always discuss this in advance to ensure clarity for all parties.

Renting out my villa for photoshoots and video productions

You may be considering making your home temporarily available. A villa can be highly attractive for brands and producers seeking space and visual appeal.

Renting out a villa for advertising

Renting out a villa for advertising means your home is temporarily used as a set for a campaign or production. We guide this process carefully.

Many owners ask about the compensation for a filming location. This depends on:

• Duration of the shoot
• Number of people
• Use of indoor and outdoor areas

Compensation is always discussed in advance. Transparency is essential.

Our process for location owners explains step by step how registration works. You can also register directly via our sign-up page.

Renting out a villa does not mean constant filming at your home. It involves selected requests within our network of Dutch film locations.
