This has nothing to do with the property itself, but Amsterdam really has a littering problem. It may have been worse because the "Sail 2025" was on, but the city authorities truly need to take this more seriously and sort it out. It's such a beautiful city, and it deserves better!

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The house boat was absolutely spotless, with everything fresh, tidy and well-maintained. It really felt like home from the moment we walked in. The location could not have been better: Just a short walk to the supermarket for daily needs, plenty of restaurants offering a wide variety of food, and several charming cafés to relax in. If you want to visit the Anne Frank Museum (just opposite the boat) make sure to book tickets well in advance - we didn't, and unfortunately couldn't get in.

Low ceilings, but to be expected!

Very special chance to stay on a houseboat in a great neighborhood.

Location, cleanliness, comfort, ambience

Nothing really. It cost a lot but when divided by four people it would be cheaper.

The property was absolutely immaculate and as described. It is a very spacious houseboat in a nice area of Amsterdam.

This did not bother us but might be a problem for others - the entrance to the house boat requires you to enter down a steep, narrow ladder of about 7-8 steps. It took two of us to get the luggage down, One of us up above handing it down to the person inside the boat. We were on a 5 week trip with our adult daughter so we had 10 pieces of luggage. It was easier to get it down than to get it back up at the end of our stay. Also, the second bedroom is at the stern which you have to crouch down to enter. I hit my head several times going in and out so be careful.

My husband and I travel quite a bit, and this was our favorite experience. From the updated interior of the house boat to the outside terrace to the view from the inside, it was incredible. The owners added many essential items, including salt, pepper, olive oil, coffee, spices, foil, paper towels & tissue (which we find lacking in most rentals). The location is excellent, we were able to walk everywhere, including grocery, central station, Dam Square, Flower market, numberous museums and most tourist areas. There is shopping and many restaurants (including (restaurant Street) nearby. It is on the boat tour loop so if you would like to take a ride around the ring, they pick you up across the canal in front of Anne Frank House. We loved watching the view of all of the activity from the outside terrace or from the pilot house if it was raining. There are two bedroom and two bathrooms which was nice to have. The beds were very comfortable as was the sectional couch for lounging after a big day of touring. They also have a smart TV so we could watch Netflix in English. We would (and will) rent this house boat again.

Would add some more hooks for hanging clothing, and some alert tape to low hanging ceilings and changes in floor hight (we all hit our head numerous times). These are minor concerns, we loved the place.

Amazing location, and so much more space than a hotel room. Very tidy and thoughtfully appointed property. You need to be spatially aware and have some fitness to navigate the stairs to the boat and the low ceilings in the bedrooms. Would stay again!

We did not have a microwave and the low ceilings in the bedroom however we would stay again and still loved the experience.

We loved the location, the outside deck and the captain’s quarters. It felt more spacious inside than anticipated.

Awesome Amsterdam stay in a great location with very comfortable beds.

Stayed in March 2025

We are all tall, but were able to move around well throughout the space except for the bedrooms, which had lower ceilings. The second bedroom requires you to almost crawl in to the bed, but we expected small inconveniences like that in a houseboat.

The houseboat was beautiful and spacious and in a great location. Everything felt new and clean. The host was very responsive and punctual and made sure we had what we needed. The weather was a little chilly, but the houseboat had central heating, and even heated floors in the second bathroom. Two full bathrooms were so nice to have. There was also plenty of hot water for showers. It was nice to have a terrace space and the “loft” area above the bedroom. The host left coffee and hot chocolate and a bottle of wine as well.

The only comment (not a complaint) is that floorboards are quite squeaky, which isn't a big deal unless you're trying to sleep in the main lounge or kitchen area. Be aware that the bedroom ceilings are very low, but again, that is to be expected in a houseboat.

This houseboat may have the best location in Amsterdam for travelers, being across the canal from the Ann Frank House and many other cental areas of interest, including the Jordaan. It's very well appointed, the hosts were very communicative and attentive, and we loved our stay (only wish it was longer!). It was quite chilly weather while we were there, and the heat system was amazing at keeping us warm and comfortable. It's a good size for up to four people. Highly recommend!

Thank you to Chamile who met us at the boathouse, as we had a very late check in, she was very accommodating. She was more than helpful .

Great location, right in the heart of Amsterdam and just opposite the Anne Frank House. The boat was well-equipped, the living area was very spacious, the beds were really comfortable. The owner gave clear instructions and great advice on local places to eat. We loved sitting on the terrace area of the boat, people watching. The little 'nook' at the top of the boat (Captains Quarter) was a great place to relax, read and fall asleep!

Absolutely nothing — however, there are steep steps to get down into the unit, so it wouldn’t be a suitable unit for someone with physical disabilities / mobility issues.

Unique and absolutely beautiful stay! Large living space with good AC for relaxing on hot afternoons. Comfortable bedrooms. Great pressure / heat in the showers.

The only thing i didn't like was having to leave the Netherlands. But, i'm already planning my next trip back.

I have stayed here the last 2 years in May for a week or so. ..... I am in LOVE with Amsterdam and this boat. The owner Rachell is a sweetheart. The boat is right across the canal from the Anne Frank (An absolute must to visit) and within walking distance to just about everywhere.

We loved the location, the cleanliness, and the houseboat itself. It was great having a well stocked kitchen and the beds were comfortable. The host was very helpful, meeting us at the boat to get us off to a great start.

Lovely boathouse , perfect location to be based for Amsterdam city centre. Very safe and convenient neighbourhood. A great host.

The location was amazing. The houseboat was in the Jordaan district- walking distance from everything and right across the canal from Anne Frank House. The house boat was very cool - such a great experience for the kids.

Unable to stand in the bedrooms, either had to crawl or crouch to get into bed.

Great location, the lounge/seating area was very comfortable and the boat was very clean.
