“The location is stunning and the boathouse itself is very comfortable and nice. Everything we needed is right to hand. The location is great and the boathouse community is a lovely one to be part of, even if its only for a few days.”

“The location on the water was superb. We loved to watch the riverboats go past, or to stay inside in comfort. We were always warm and comfortable. It was easy to walk to a tram or bus to go into the city centre and free cycles were provided which...”

“Amazing location (far enough from the centre of Amsterdam that you don't feel you're in a capital city, but only ~30 mins by public transport to Centraal station!), and a really well-furnished facility. Really comfy bed, too, and watching the...”

The apartment is new, clean and well equipped. The bed is a highly qualitative box spring. There is a kitchenette for all your basic needs. You can use the fridge, Nespresso, microwave oven, water cooker etc. The bathroom has a rain shower. Of course we made it able for you to watch your flatscreen from your bed. There is good fast free wifi all threw the apartment. Our houseboat is centrally heated so nice and warm all year through! New!!! I have bought a brand new big terras where you can sit right on the water! See the photographs! Also I renewed the Wifi while before it was a bit slow, yet now the wifi works perfect.
My name is Sandra, I am born and raised in Amsterdam. I live on a lovely houseboat with my son Joe. l love going to the movies, restaurants, museums, fleamarkets, concerts, to the gym and love to go for long walks. I have travelled a lot in the past and still do! I really look forward giving my guests an unforgettable time in Amsterdam!
Your charming, light and spacious houseboat apartment is situated in Amsterdam South, a trendy, safe, green, quiet and peaceful neighborhood just outside the center of the city. Away from the hustle of the city center but still close enough; Vondelpark is only 15 minutes ride on your bike, the city center 5 minutes more. We offer you two bikes for free, available all through your stay at our Houseboat. If you don’t like to move by bike, walk 10 minutes down the most unique path you have ever seen; the Jaagpad to the first public transport. An experience you don’t want to miss. After a busy day in the city, you ride back on your bike to your apartment and either enjoy the view in your apartment or sit on your own idyllic terrace in the garden onshore. Walk up to your apartment on your own boardwalk.
