La houseboat è bellissima, con tutte le comodità. I proprietari molto gentili mettono a disposizione degli ospiti una serie di prodotti da utilizzare all’occorrenza (frutta e altri alimenti, accessori per il bagno ecc). La casa si trova in una zona molto carina e molto comoda per raggiungere i vari punti di interesse in città. Il soggiorno perfetto esiste!

We decided on a different style of accommodation for our stay in Amsterdam and we weren’t disappointed. Paul was an amazing host, including offering to pick us up from the train station on our arrival. He offered lots of information and ideas on sightseeing and nearby restaurants. The houseboat is quite small but perfectly functional. The bed was large and very comfortable. We appreciated the complimentary basket of goodies. The houseboat is located a little way out of the centre of Amsterdam but the tram is located near by and came every 10 mins or it was an easy 30 min walk. It was actually quite nice to be out of the centre which was extremely busy in July. My husband was very happy with the location, only 100m from the historic windmill brewery. We really enjoyed sitting on the deck watching the ducks, swans and other boats go by.

You did get the occasional strong river smell but that’s to be expected when staying on a waterway.

First of all, the houseboat itself was amazing. It is essentially a completely modern and beautiful floating apartment. The space is absolutely huge compared to our other accommodations on our trip and so it was really nice to be able to spread out a bit. The windows are floor to ceiling and it was really neat to have swans literally swimming up to the windows as we were hanging out. The location is also great as Brouwerij 't IJ is a fantastic brewery two minutes walk away at the end of the street. We were able to walk to the train station as well as many of the city's most popular attractions and felt completely safe the entire time. Secondly, the hosts were absolutely awesome. We (accidentally) arrived on King's Day and were a bit worried about checking in, but Paul (host) prioritized meeting us at the boat and warmly welcomed us. He gave us a tour of the apartment and even provided us with some local snacks as a welcome gift. He then proceeded to sit down with us with a map and show us points of interest as well as answer any questions we had regarding the city or activities we had planned. He even provided us with the train information we would need to get the airport the day before we left. Overall, this was one of the best places we have ever stayed because of both the apartment and the hosts and I would highly recommend to anyone travelling to Amsterdam. We hope to return in the near future. Thanks Paul & Rob!

I only wish we could have stayed longer. We really don't have a single complaint or suggestion on how to improve. I hope they keep doing what they are doing.

this houseboat is really lovely and in a cool part of the city (only 30 mins or so to get to central). if you go when it's warm you can swim in the canal which we really enjoyed (you will also be visited regularly by ducks/geese etc - please see pic attached!) the space feels private, homely and comfortable but still near enough to some places to eat / hang out etc. (our favourite being Brouwerij 't IJ - a brewery in a windmill) Paul and Rob were such friendly and attentive hosts. we really appreciated the little details i.e. helping us with travel + providing some snacks on the side and a couple of drinks in the fridge. we will definitely be returning next time we're in Amsterdam!

A wonderful place to stay! Incredibly comfortable, great hosts, and wonderful location.

Nothing :)

nice location peaceful setting

dimly lit small bedroom no hot water to the sink in the bathroom no steps up to outside patio space unsuitable for disabled people.

Excellent location. Nearby everywhere. Great contact with Paul. We will be back;)

Location was perfect for the relaxed holiday we were after. Paul and Rob are lovely men and hosts who answered all queries and went above and beyond for us.

Some continental breakfast options may be nice but little basket and bottle of wine more than did the job. Two twin beds pushed together instead of a double, made sleeping a bit difficult sometimes but nothing that couldn’t be fixed.
