The hosts took the lead five minutes before the interval courtesy of Nick Viergever, who found the target from close range.
Lasse Schone added a second for Ajax on 48 minutes with a brilliant effort from a free kick, before Van der Hoorn headed home a third goal for De Godenzonen.
Vitesse pulled one back with six minutes of time remaining through Marko Vejinovic's effort, but Ajax soon regained their three-goal advantage with Schone adding his second of the afternoon soon after.
