18 cheap sleeping places in the heart of Rotterdam
Spent a night in Rotterdam on the Sudermar with a group of friends. Super good location and very friendly host. Had a nice stay

Private Studio on Houseboat Center Amsterdam
I had a wonderful stay at the houseboat! It’s central so the location is perfect, and the boat was tidy and very clean. Karina was very friendly and proactive, and she also sent me some good recommendations!

Houseboat on Prinsengracht Jordaan
We thoroughly enjoyed a long weekend aboard Johan's houseboat, in a great location in the Jordaan! It was an experience simply not available in a hotel or B&B. We drank morning coffee and late afternoon cocktails on the deck whle soaking up the few remaining days of late summer sun. It was ideally located close to neighborhood restaurants, shops, and even weekend organic food and flea market, and a short walk to tourist attractions in the old city center. If not up for a longer walk along the canal to the museum quarter and beyond, a public transportation options were always available nearby. Communication prior to arrival and during our stay was proactive and prompt. The inside of the houseboat was even more spacious than we anticipated, and the beds were comfortable. We'll definitely opt for a stay here during our next visit to Amsterdam!

Historic sailing ship in Muiden, near Amsterdam
Lovely location, excellent accommodation and Egbert was a really nice fella, we really enjoyed our stay on his boat

It won't get better than this..
If you want a true taste of Amsterdam, Jaap’s place is a perfect fit. The historic accommodations right on the canal make you feel like one of the residents. Sitting on the boat and watching the other canal boats go by was a favorite pastime of our stay. Nighttime was gorgeous with the lights on the boat and the city reflecting in the water. Inside, the space was so unique and perfectly accommodated the four of us! Stores to purchase delicious baked goods and groceries were nearby as well as places to sit down and grab some local fare. We loved our stay here and already are talking about how we can come back to Japp’s amazing canal boat! We would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to share in a true taste of this very special city!

Cosy & Comfortable sailing boat for your own!
We had an amazing stay on the boat! Our group of eight friends found everything clean and well-maintained. The two showers were a big plus, and we loved the common area for hanging out. The Bluetooth speaker was a great touch too!

XL luxurious houseboat on hot spot
The house boat was just as it looked in the pictures! It was very spacious and comfortable for our family of 4. It was perfect how the kids sort of had their side, or wing, and my husband and I had our space in the master bedroom, on the other side. We all slept very well! We loved the cats, Skip & Bo. We are animal people, so it was fun having them come and go, and socialize and snuggle with us! The views were amazing and there were plenty of spots to just chill when we weren't out exploring. The house boat was very walkable to many fun spots and different areas. We definitely felt like we were staying in someone's home versus a rental. Enjoyed all of the personal touches in the kitchen as well! We would go back in a heartbeat and recommend Joost's place without hesitation!

Groep Accommodation Sailing Ship
We stayed several places in the Netherlands and our time with Sandra was everyone’s favorite. The boat is small (like all boats) but our group of 16 was comfortable and had everything we needed to cook our meals and hang out in the dining area. You are the crew—Sandra is a great teacher and host. Great communication and suggestions for a sailing schedule. We loved Enkhuizen the most!
Boat rentals with beach access

large family boat at the beach near Amsterdam
Magical boat near a wonderful beach and easy to get into Amsterdam!

Lovely "beach cottage" on the water!
At first, we were a little reluctant because the boat is really right in front of the restaurant, like on a silver platter, but it was great. For a few relaxing days just away, it's perfect. Like a little camping trip on the water. The heat in the boat was bearable.

Sleeping on the ship “de Johanna”
Can highly recommend staying here. So nice to return to after a busy day sightseeing in Amsterdam. Near bus stop, 10 mins walk away, takes you straight to Amsterdam Central station. Get off at bus stop before station if you do not need metro, we walked everywhere. We used credit card each for bus, swipe on and then swipe as you get off, about 7 euro return. The Johanna is just a joy to be on, comfortable and clean with stunning views. Everything that you need and more is supplied. Sandra and her partner are a joy to deal with, checking in with us to ensure all was ok.

Sailing ship nearby city centre.
Marcel was a great host and was easy to communicate with. The Airbnb was fantastic and provided us with everything we needed.

Boutique style accommodation w. 10 double cabins
Nice host, nice space. Bedrooms are of course small. Beds are good. No dishwasher. We didn't mind but good to know. Beautiful berth.

Spend a night on the water in a cosy houseboat
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this place! The boat was just as beautiful as in the photos – stylishly furnished, sparkling clean and with lots of loving details. The beds are okay for sleeping, but you can't expect the greatest comfort. The location was also great – quiet, but still everything available. Ideal for excursions or simply to relax. Communication with the hosts was also excellent.

It's something special. Extraordinary experience. Highly recommended.

Unique spacious (private) boat in Amsterdam.
We had a lovely stay and intensely enjoyed the boat. Everything was provided and the boat is fantastically equipped. We did miss some (extra) blackout on the boat, because without curtains it was very quickly light in the morning. ;-)
Waterfront boat rentals

Luxurious wellness houseboat - Captains Cabin
This is by far the best Airbnb I have ever booked or stayed at. Gerben and Albert were excellent hosts and were so kind and friendly! The houseboat looked even more extravagant than in the photos which I didn’t think was possible! I would 100% book again and cannot wait to be back in Amsterdam to stay here. Also the location was perfect, within the heart of Amsterdam with so many shops, restaurants, and bars nearby.

Former ferry houseboat right at the National Opera
This was a fun place to stay. There are 2 transit stops within a 5 minute walk. It was a few minutes walk from the metro station and super easy to find. Koko was responsive and made sure to communicate before check in so it was a breeze.

Spacious homely houseboat
We spent a few days in this accommodation and had a great time. The property was clean, cozy and equipped with everything you need. The location is convenient, quiet but close to the main points of interest. Very kind host, helpful and always ready to give us useful advice. An experience we absolutely recommend, we would gladly come back!

Family boat
Was a great stay, thanks for your hospitality!!

Authentic houseboat Amalia
The boat Amalia is unique and well placed for both transport and exploring the wonderful city of Amsterdam. We really enjoyed our unforgettable stay.

Private Tiny House on a large ship
Amazing experience and a wonderful host. Lord of special little touches that make a difference like lavender bags on the pillow ♥️ very easy to get to Amsterdam central just 4 stops on the tram, fantastic stay!

Historic sailing ship in the heart of Muiden
Had a great stay! The ship has all the comforts. Despite the fact that the beds look cramped, everyone slept wonderfully and it was very cozy. Next time we hope to have better weather, then we can enjoy the deck more. Thank you Xandra and Marco!

Rooms on Water Group accommodation 8 persons
Everything is great! The accommodation is just great, we felt very comfortable, everything very well equipped. Location super central in the historic harbor next to the shipping museum with water taxi stand right next door. Moniek also recommended us a parking garage right around the corner for parking. Processing very nice and easy. We highly recommend this property.
