This was something different from the usual hotel rooms we book. So glad we chose this boathouse for our break in Amsterdam. Our hosts were exceptional. Great communication. Loved the canal on our backdoor step. Paddling our weary feet after a long day. Seeing the ducks in the morning. Kitchen was fully equipped for cooking and full of complimentary goodies from our wonderful hosts. Spare UK/EU charger in cupboard if you forget yours. And there was spare toiletries under bathroom sink. Plenty of towels and comfort. We want to go back!!

We didn't like leaving!! LOL!! This won't be suitable if you are not already prepared to walk about a bit. Or if you're not prepared to call taxis. Worth the distance in our opinion. It's 18 mins walk to the nearest metro but hey, we'd access to their FREE bikes!!!! I went outside my comfort zone to use the bikes. So glad I did!!! There's also Uber for your airport run for under 28 euro. You will need basic fitness to fully appreciate this accommodation, in terms of the stairs to bedroom and walk to metro. The stairs will be the same for most accommodation in Amsterdam.

From the moment we arrived we were warmly greeted by our host. There was a bottle of wine and traditional waffle biscuits waiting on our arrival after our long drive from Germany. Lone, the host was fantastic and went out of her way to make our stay memorable. The place was spotlessly clean, the kitchen had every utensil and appliance needed plus the bed very comfortable. Though the house is small is certainly does not lack any creature comforts and is quirky and cute. The bikes were a bonus and we were able to ride through the beautiful city park into the city, roughly 20 minutes and truely made us blend in as a local.

We had a wonderful time staying in this beautiful house boat! Lone & Eric are great hosts who are so welcoming, friendly and attentive to ensure you have a relaxing stay. Facilities were brilliant, you have everything you need and the drinks and snacks were a lovely surprise after a long day of travelling. The outside space is such a treat to sit out and enjoy the view of boats and wildlife. It's a beautiful space to enjoy after exploring Amsterdam. We would highly recommend and we will definitely be booking again in the future!

Nothing, it was all perfect!

Lovely riverside property, excellent location. If you like wild swimming or cold water immersion this place is for you, there’s a ladder into the river. We came for the marathon and this was easy walking distance to the stadium. It’s well connected to the centre by a tram that comes all the time so don’t worry that it’s not in the centre. Lovely host met us outside and showed us around.

Nothing

We enjoyed the location and activity on the canal, which you could watch from the deck. The bed was very comfortable. Although located a little out of the city centre, we thought it gave you a unique Amsterdam experience, especially if you make use of the bikes. The host was very helpful, and every tip she gave us was accurate and useful, especially local restaurants

Nothing.

Fantastic place to stay, warm, clean and quiet. Easy communication with the hosts, and great to be able to use the bikes. The bed was really comfortable and really well stocked kitchen with everything you need to make a basic meal. Really nice touches with little bottles of wine, beer, snacks gifted to us as well. Absolutely recommend staying here!

A decent walk if you take the tram from the airport (15-20 minutes). It's 10 minutes to walk to the tram to get into the city but this was a really nice walk and not a problem just worth noting perhaps if this is a barrier for you.

Very cozy tiny apartment, comfortable bed, fully equipped kitchen. Would recommend to bring slippers in winter time as we use to change our shoes and it was very cold from the bottom because of the water underneath. Definitely use the bikes otherwise nearest public transport is 18 min walking distance through a park and quiet neighborhood (tram will take you through all the downtown straight to the Central Station). We loved our stay ♥️

Lone was very responsive and was very helpful. She provided many recommendations to us and also had stocked the kitchen with some treats, wine, beer, tea, coffee, and milk. The bikes were great and it was easy to get around the city. While not in the city centre, you could easily get to any destination. There is a grocery store nearby if needed.

nothing.

Me and my partner loved the boat house, they were so welcoming and made us feel right at home. The boat house was super clean and they even left us snacks and drinks, the location was perfect and you can easily get trams to wherever you need to go. I would highly recommend, thank you Lone and Eric!!!!

Everything was perfect! The hosts were so helpful and friendly, really great people. Being on the water was stunning and the location was absolutely perfect. So great to ride our bikes into Amsterdam and have an authentic new experience on the houseboat!

I ended up getting a bit of motion sickness just from the houseboat occasionally bobbing so if you’re prone to that make sure to take any necessary precautions! Other than that, loved it!
