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.

Excellent little apartment. My only recommendations would be to have screens on the back door to prevent mosquitos and another fan. A small microwave would have been nice but not necessary. I would recommend and stay there again.

House boat atay

We had a great stay at this property. The property was exactly as advertised and was just right for three people. It certainly was close to the center of Amsterdam but far enough to be quiet. I would certainly stay here again.

Unique and Relaxing Stay on a Houseboat

Staying on this houseboat was a unique and relaxing experience, offering beautiful canal views and a peaceful atmosphere. The location was ideal—close to the city center yet quiet enough to enjoy some tranquility. The hosts were very friendly and provided great local tips, making our visit even better.

Great stay in a traditional Dutch houseboat

A two bedroom apartment in a houseboat. Newly renovated, with the benefit of a small kitchen. A quiet location, only a quick ferry ride from downtown. Highly recommended for those wanting a unique experience.

Fantastic stay in the perfect location for exploring

The boat itself is great for a cozy stay. It’s nice and warm and in great condition. There are 4 single beds that are together to essentially create 2 doubles so it’s a bit cozy if you’re sharing with friends. The location is perfect as it’s just about a 10min walk from the free 24/7 ferry into the centre. Theres also plenty to see on the north side of the river. Would highly recommend this stay.

Cozy houseboat stay

We arrived in Amsterdam as the final leg of a 17 day European vacation. Check in and out was easy, Edwin was a wealth of info and the home is spotless. We happened to be there one day that the weather was horrible - cold, rain and VERY high winds,,,a perfect crash day for us to stay inside and rest. Comfy beds. Walking distance from the central train station and a grocery store nearby.
