“Overall, a memorable and enjoyable stay!”
Staying on this houseboat was such a unique experience! It’s very easy to reach with tram 26 from Centraal Station, and check-in was simple. The boat had all the amenities I needed, and I really enjoyed the charm of living on the water.

“A fantastic houseboat stay!”
Staying on this houseboat was a fantastic experience! The flat was comfortable, with direct access to a spacious deck. Everything was spotless, and the quiet neighborhood made for a restful stay. Conveniently, there's a supermarket nearby, and public transport connections to the city center are excellent (20minute tram ride). Miriam was a wonderful host. Highly recommend!

The spotless clean place. Miriam, the owner is absolut. brilliant. Always helping out. The house boat has everything that you may need and more. The kitchen is amazing. Also, you have several markets near by, to try local. Tram around the corner. Excellent frequency. You can be in the city centre in 15 min for £2. The place is out of words. Thank you very much Miriam!!!

This is the perfect place for couples looking for a romantic getaway as it is beautifully decorated and equipped with all the amenities you could need. The location of the property is also ideal, as it is located close to all the major attractions and necessities.

She was a fantastic host who went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. From providing helpful recommendations to accommodating our needs, she truly made us feel at home. Overall, I highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a beautiful and comfortable place to stay in Amsterdam. You will not be disappointed!"
