Houseboat vacation rentals in Amsterdam

Wonderful stay! Best airbnb. Very communicative and the apartment was designed beautifully. Will definitely stay again.

There were four of us on Jan's houseboat. The boat is in a quiet area, close to the Olympic center. Just outside, to the center of Amsterdam by metro about 20 minutes. The houseboat was cozy and clean, Jan personally greeted us on the first day and the contact was very nice. There are 4 bicycles available, but we did not use them as the Dutch have too fast a driving style...🫣 we had 4 great days in Amsterdam and on the houseboat.

Kay and Santiago were extremely helpful and hospitable, they were highly responsive and very accomodating when we asked about leaving our baggage at the property + checking out late. The houseboat is in a lovely location, close to public transport but also easily walkable to different suburbs and surrounding areas. It is exactly as listed, easily accessible and comfortable for 4 people to stay in. Santiago was kind enough to send a very helpful list of recommendations for the city, would definitely recommend and hope to book here again.

Lovely home Perfect neighborhood to stay if touring Amsterdam Host extremely responsive to any of our needs

We felt very comfortable right away, the accommodation is beautiful and well maintained. The equipment for our little son was also great, there was a high chair and a crib incl. Bed linen ☺️ Also the connection by train to Amsterdam was great. We will be happy to come back again 🥰

Great place to stay was very peaceful and relaxing for Amsterdam.

Everything went well. We had a very nice time in Amsterdam. The boat is in a very beautiful and peaceful neighborhood. Everything was as expected.

Beautiful houseboat in a great location and easy access to all of Amsterdam. The houseboat was warm and cosy and perfect for our short stay. Hanco is a great host

We were so lucky to be able to stay in such a beautiful place! The beds were comfy, the surroundings were peaceful and beautiful... it was a lovely escape from the busy, city-center. We LOVED the use of the kitchen and the deck just off the kitchen. Hein was so good to have bikes available for us. There is little available directly near the home but a 10 minute bike ride along the lovely road and over the bridge gets you to all you could want. We were sad to leave our Amsterdam home and will hope Hein's home is available when we return.

We spent a family holiday with our two awakening children in Justin's floating house between Christmas and New Year's Eve. It was ideal to have time together in peace. The house is clean and modernly furnished, the heating is wonderfully warm even in winter and you have everything you need. Most of the time we took a trip to Rotterdam, Amsterdam or the sea during the day, which is only 30-45 min. away. In the evening we cooked, played, read or watched a movie in the house. Everything was great, and highly recommend it.

Easy to find. Host speaks only Dutch, but has prepared well with a translation app. The location is very quiet and you can walk to the bus to Amsterdam

- [ ] This was truly the perfect place for our Amsterdam visit! The houseboat is serene, spacious, and cozy—we felt right at home from the moment we arrived. Our party of three adults had plenty of space for a comfortable stay. The neighborhood is lovely, with charming bars and coffee shops, yet still so close to all the main sights. The canal is peaceful at night, which made for incredibly restful sleep. Fern is an outstanding host—welcoming, gracious, and always quick to respond. We’d book again in a heartbeat and can’t recommend this houseboat enough!

This houseboat is a true magical dream paradise. It’s cozy, does not seem small at all, and has all the touches to make it feel TRULY like your home in Amsterdam… the hammock and outdoor patio, the big couch and pull-down projector screen, the fully equipped kitchen, the incredibly comfortable bed. Unlike some places that feel like soulless hotels, this is a beautiful, warm, welcoming home. I absolutely will be coming back here when I visit Amsterdam in the future.

Our stay at Claire’s place was nothing short of magical. The location is hard to beat in the heart of Jordaan, steps away from great Dutch cafes, every restaurant we ate at was within a ten minute walk, every one was fantastic. As well as minutes walk from transit. Somehow though being in the middle of everything, being on the water in this houseboat makes you feel like you’re in your own private oasis. Claire has great taste, her home is designed impeccably, with one of the major highlights being the record player, listening to classics like the Beatles, Bowie, The Doors while sitting on the back porch taking in the incredible view of the canal. Bonus was the most efficient washer dryer I used during my 3 week stay in Europe and the large dishwasher. Had we stayed longer, we would have cooked, there was a fully stocked Chefs kitchen. Thanks for the perfect end to our adventure!

We returned for a second long stay and it is still wonderful! Great location just far enough out of Centrum to be missing all the tourists but still close enough to easily get in there every day. Liz is a terrific communicator and it is super easy to get in and out. The house boat is very comfortable and well maintained. I hope to return next year!

The location right between Utrecht and Amsterdam is just a dream, sleeping directly on a boat of course too. In winter, it is easy to heat up with the heaters and for the summer there is air conditioning, we thought it was great!!

Would stay at Anne's place again

Beautiful establishment, host is excellent at communication. The boat is based very central and was very clean.

This unique spot was perfect for enjoying the art and food of Amsterdam. 30ish minutes on public transit to basically anything and walking distance to great museums and restaurants. We also enjoyed the neighbors and their recommendations.

We enjoyed the stay at the boat house a lot! The location is beautiful and we loved the views as well as accessibility to the places around. There are assigned co-hosts who are very responsive if you have any questions or issues, big thanks to Philo for helping us with everything and Nina for calling us to check up if everything is great. The boat has everything needed for a stay - comfy beds and sofa, toaster and coffee machine, bean bags to sit and cozy living room. The kitchen might not have enough pans, but overall is good if you prefer to cook on your own. It's not a 100inch TV as it was marked in the description due to typo, but it's pretty good if you want to watch some netflix or youtube at night. There is street parking nearby, which is quite pricey, but hosts can advise on the parking house nearby. We had a lovely stay and would love to come back again!

We wanted to treat ourselves to something really nice for the turn of the year and found a wonderful atmospheric place here. On Veras and George's houseboat, you can relax and cook very well - the kitchen is well equipped. The feel-good factor on a houseboat is great anyway, which is even increased by the high-quality cozy furnishings. We really enjoyed the break and felt very welcome from the two of them! Vera's numerous tips on (bicycle)excursions in the area were particularly helpful. We were very happy that despite the half-way weather, we took our bikes with us and were able to explore the beautiful surroundings with the many pretty places.

We were absolutely delighted with the accommodation. A great experience and highly recommended. We met Barbara while walking, she was totally nice.

I really liked the boat, me and my friends had a ton of fun. The only problems we experienced the owner fixed within 30 minutes of me texting him. Great place overall I highly recommend it.

The houseboat is wonderful, quiet and very well located for visit this part Nederland We highly recommend Thank you for the nice attention for the arrival
