Abbenes is a village in the Dutch province of North Holland. It is a part of the municipality of Haarlemmermeer, and is situated about southwest of Hoofddorp.
The village was first mentioned in 1867 as Abbenes, and is named after a lost island. The name means "headland of Abe (person)".[3] Abbenes developed shortly after 1852 on the Hoofdvaart near a bridge.[4]
