Central, cosy and modern appartment in Houseboat. Amsterdam Pur Sang.

Going out to discover Amsterdam and surroundings or just finding your quiet spot when working or relaxing, up to four can enjoy a lovely place on one of the Canals.

Everything is within reach, as well as a filmmuseum, 100m high lookout or just a nice restaurant next to the water or even beach. Also going out for nature is a 15 min tour on a bike or car. Or visit one of the famous Musea Amsterdam has by walking up to one of the free Ferries and get into the tram or metro. Even by bike it is only 20 minutes away.

Your host has a lot of knowledge on where one can go, all depending if it needs to be a local, cultural experience or just for food and good music. It's all there you just have to make something good out of it.

Nicest hosts and cleanest rental ever
Flawless and unique experience, great hosts who went above and beyond, nice sized space that is super clean and well stocked. Location is great in the northern area near a great street market. A bit of a walk to central station, but not bad.

Property is in transition. Will b. Lovely when rooms, garden and deck are complete. Staying on this side of Amsterdam and taking the ferry to city center allowed us to see a part of the city that we would not have been exposed to on the other side of the river.

Had a good stay in the apartment. Rooms were clean. Location was not amazing but the ferry does run consistently. Wish we could’ve had a dock — that was something that we expected.

Nice days
We had a nice day in Noord. It was very quiet there and it is also conveniently located for city trips. Edwin is a very nice landlord and the apartment is modern, very clean and well laid out. The rooms are narrow but cozy and there is a patio door in the living room that you can open. We liked it and would like to come back again.

The place was immaculate and well kept. being on the water is a very special experience, and gives a serene start to the day. The location is a bit out of the way, but the free ferry from Amsterdam Centraal runs every few minutes, 24hrs a day.

Good time
I stayed in this place with a friend. The owners are super nice and live in a connected property, I asked them to turn up the heat one day and they were super accommodating. The owner offered up many great suggestions for sight seeing and things to do. Was super knowledgeable about the city. Would stay again.

Houseboat experience
Having never stayed in a houseboat, this was an experience we couldn't miss. The space was efficient and well equiped. It was a thrill to ride the ferry every day and the houseboat was only a short walk from the ferry stop. Highly recommend!

Excellent Amsterdam Apartment on a houseboat
Great location. Easy walk to free ferry crossing to Amsterdam Central Train Station. Apartment opens to the morning sunrise over the canal it is on. Edwin, the owner, lives on site and is very helpful and friendly, with a great knowledge of Amsterdam and Holland. When I go back to Amsterdam I will rent this again.
