About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire house boat to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Modern yet cozy houseboat

My houseboat is a lovely, quiet and comfortable place to stay in Amsterdam, close to Carré Theater, Hermitage, Hortus Botanicus, Artis Zoo, and lots of other famous tourist places and last but not least the Amstel river. Enjoy Amsterdam from within!

The houseboat offers you a tastefull bedroom, a modern bathroom, a luxurious kitchen and a warm, comfortable living room with a beautifull canal view. Enjoy the view and quiet atmosphere from behind the spacious windows or by using the terrace.

My place is a very stable, solidly constructed and well maintained houseboat. I like to share my boat with guests from all over the world, because it's such a unique and typical Amsterdam way of living.

Great location, good host!
The location for this houseboat couldn't be better. It's close to transit and many great sightseeing locations, but it's on a side canal so it's still relatively secluded and quiet. The houseboat itself is very modern and well-maintained. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

Great Little Houseboat
Cozy and comfy houseboat with everything you need. The owner was very accommodating and maintained communication to you ensure we enjoyed our stay. We arrived on a Thursday and our first night was relaxing. However, party goers from Friday night lead to a 2am awakening to yelling and screaming on Saturday morning. We would still return here next time we're in Amsterdam.

Albert is the best host. He greeted us when we arrived with fresh tulips and showed us how everything worked. He helped us navigate the two biggest celebrations in Amsterdam. The houseboat is clean, very modern with all of the modern conveniences.... including heated bathroom floors. We will be back again.

Houseboat stay in Amsterdam
This is a great houseboat. Perfect for two people though it could support two adults and two kids. There are a lot of flowers around the boat and it is very clean. The location is very good. Restaurants a short 5-8 min walk away and it is on a quiet canal. If you want to try staying on a houseboat in Amsterdam this is one to try.

Amsterdam Getaway
My husband and I throughly enjoyed our stay at the house it! The location is perfect for exploring Amsterdam. Albert, the host, was easy to communicate with throughout our stay. The houseboat has everything you need for a lovely stay. Hopefully, we will be able to visit again and if so we would definitely stay here again. If the houseboat is available for your vacation/holiday, I would definitely reserve it before someone else does!!
