Author: Here are the top Hallmark-Style Christmas Movies on Netflix right now! Watch all the cheesy romantic comedy Christmas movies without the Hallmark Channel!
One of the amazing things about Netflix is how focused they are on original content. And during the holiday season, that means a TON of new Christmas movies on Netflix!
NOTE: As of 2025, Netflix is adding new Christmas rom-coms at a rate that I just can’t keep up with (49 new titles this year alone!). So instead of a complete list, this post has now become a list of my favorites on Netflix, which I will update as I watch the new titles going forward!
22 Hallmark Style Christmas Movies on Netflix
Yes, these Christmas movies on Netflix all have a few things in common. They are predictable, uber-cheesy, and the acting is probably not going to garner many awards… but they are sort of like those guilty pleasure Carol Higgins Clark Christmas mystery books (I read at least one every season!). You spend a few hours with some fun characters, you know exactly what to expect, and yet you are delighted all the same!
I’m thrilled to say that this year, the selection of Christmas movies on Netflix leaves nothing to be desired!
These are romantic Christmas movies, so there won’t be a ton (if any) sexual content, language, or violence. Just good old-fashioned Christmas romance.
Read through this list, check out the fun covers (and some big names too!), and you’re sure to find the perfect Christmas movie to watch asap!

Don’t have Netflix? It’s easy to get!
If you don’t have Netflix on your TV, not to worry! There are many ways to start streaming movies right now, using devices you may already have!
TVs and Blu-Ray Players
If you’ve recently purchased a TV or Blu-Ray player, chances are you have a device with “Smart features”. If that’s the case, then you should be able to add Netflix directly from the device itself!
My in-laws gifted us this gorgeous Roku TV and we have loved the built-in Smart features. That means we only have one cord coming from the TV which is a lot easier to hide that 5+!
Game Consoles
Most modern gaming consoles (PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Nintendo Wii and Nintendo Wii U) come with basic streaming capabilities, including the ability to watch Netflix.
Smart Device
If you don’t have a new TV or any game consoles laying around, there are still plenty of options for you to be able to start watching Netflix.
Roku
A super affordable option at $39, this device plugs into any HDMI slot and will have you streaming in minutes. We have this version which includes a headphone jack on the remote so you can watch TV while others sleep (ahem, my husband!).
Amazon Fire Stick
Coming in at the same price, the Amazon Fire Stick is just $39 as well! You can’t go wrong with either option!
Even More Christmas Fun!
Now you just need to make up a big batch of your favorite Christmas cookies, some hot chocolate with marshmallows, and then slip into your favorite Christmas pajamas! Then you’ll be all set for a mega cheesy rom-com binge. Enjoy!
