Summary: Great location for us. It is just on the outskirts of the center which was good for us. If you want to be in the heart of it all then this is not the best spot for you. We loved the deck in the evening having a coffee or beer watching the boats go buy.The steps up and down could be tricky for old or young folks.Would certainly stay here again.

Summary: This houseboat is located 1/2 a block from the metro station, so getting to Amsterdam Central is a short trip. There is a grocery store three blocks south. The rental bikes are located across the bridge, a short five minute walk. We rented them for the stay and it was really enjoyable to bike around the city, especially through Vodelpark! We tried the hot tub boat - a unique experience but it did take two hours to heat the water by wood fire, and given that it was early April it was chilly. There are several cafes for eating close by, but we mostly ate throughout this amazing city. The owner/manager was great with communication and it was easy to locate and get in/out. The steep steps down to the boat would be a challenge for people who cannot easily walk/climb stairs. The houseboat was clean and as described, and you very much need a smart phone to access the property as there are many smart features. The toilet is also a bidet which decreases waste. It was lovely to rest on the dock after a long day, enjoying the evening sunset.

Summary: Idyllic houseboat property near city center. The outdoor space at this houseboat is to die for. Everything was very comfortable and clean, including the bathroom and shower. The bed in the living room is a Murphy bed and very comfortable. The master bedroom is gorgeous. We were able to screencast our Netflix/HBO onto the Samsung TVs.

Summary: Our stay on the houseboat was a really enjoyable and unique experience! The boat itself was surprisingly comfortable, with ample space for our group. We particularly loved the novelty of living on the water. Despite being located near a major street, it was remarkably quiet and peaceful, which was a pleasant surprise. The location was also very convenient, offering easy access to local attractions. We're giving it 4 stars because while everything was great, there was room for a little more polish in terms of some minor amenities. Overall, a fantastic and memorable stay!

Summary: My wife and I truly enjoyed what was, for us, a first-ever experience of living aboard a houseboat. Like any new experience, we needed a bit of time to understand how everything worked. In short, we couldn't have asked for a better vacation and we appreciated Andrew's support and thoughtful suggestions and information when we asked for his local insights.

Summary: Where else can you stay in a houseboat in the middle of the city? It is definitely a fun adventure. A few things to know: if you or anyone in your group has mobility issues this place is not for you. Steep stairs. Also you are in the city. It isn’t quiet. The hosts kindly leave earplugs but we sleep with white noise so not an issue for us. The kitchen is more of a Kitchenette. Great storage for clothing given it’s a houseboat. Management was quick to respond to questions.

Summary: We had a fantastic experience staying on the houseboat. It had everything we needed. When we had a small issue with a hair blower that had issues, Andrew was quick to get us a new one. We loved all the room. It was on a canal with little tour boats but more small boats people rented to tour the city so the traffic going by was fun as everyone waved. We enjoyed the small cafe 100 feet down for evening wine. Only one night did we hear some thumping from the late night music there. Andrew has a great summary of the area and we tried 4 of the cafes/restaurants recommended and they were awesome. The only thing I didn't realize from the pictures is that the boat is on a busy road. I was nervous about once realized but the boat sits down below and the morning and evening business commute noise not too bad. We loved the location ... just on the edge of the main tourist areas and less than two blocks to a Metro station to get around or 10 minutes down to the Central train station. Thank you, Andrew, for making one of the stops on our Europe trip truly unforgettable.

Summary: Booked this for a weekend as husband going to a conference. Tired of staying in expensive hotels we thought we would try a houseboat. The photos on the website were probably quite old as the property was tired: dirty grouting in the bathroom and tired looking sofa. It would be so much better if there were not wires crisscrossing lights etc everywhere. It is also next to a main road and a popular bar which were not mentioned. Having said that the novelty of staying in a boathouse beats overpriced hotels. The shower works and the bed was comfortable. Watching the world go by and feeding the moorhens from the outside platform was great. The boat was well sound proof so the noise from the bar didn’t disturb us much. All in all a good experience and would recommend - given the reasonable rate.
