Houseboat Tante Piet 2 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms
I cannot recommend this boat enough. I wish I was back there right now! What a lovely surprise that it's even better than the photos. Extremely clean, excellent finish, very unique and an overall beautiful space. Location is lovely, a short walk to everything and easy tram access if you don't feel like walking. Leaving the best till last... Sietske is a wonderful and kind host. She couldn't do enough for us and made us feel extremely welcome. Thank you so much for helping make a big birthday even more special!!

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

Sunny houseboat near Amsterdam centre!
Anouk's houseboat was the ideal place to retreat and come down. You have everything you need in the houseboat. Was very pleasant to be there. Always happy to come back

Amsterdam romantic house boat
There were five of us on site for an extended weekend and felt right at home. Everything was as described and visible in the pictures. Marie is very hospitable. Her houseboat offers a perfect place to relax and feel good. All around a successful weekend. We will be happy to come back.

Authentic bright Water Villa @ old city canal.
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

Studio on Houseboat Anthonia(24m2)
Not a first time visitor to Arnhem but first time at this location. It had all the amenities I needed and it was quite pleasant to be on the river. There are a set of steps opposite the car park at the boat that take you up towards the main bus/train station in about a 10mins walk, so quite handy for those using public transport as I was. I would certainly consider this for a return visit on future trips to Arnhem.

Sleep in Trust.
Staying with Irene and Ted is balm for the soul: great hosts, great accommodation, exciting surroundings for cyclists, canoeists, swimmers and nature lovers. We visited for the 2nd time and hopefully not the last. Once again, wonderful holidays.

Stylish houseboat for 2
The Musard is a magical houseboat in one of the most lovely locations in all of Amsterdam. And while we LOVE wandering Amsterdam, we were constantly tempted to stay on board and just hang out on the top deck. Inside, the Musard is *super cool*, but you need to remember that it really is a boat and that brings about certain elements that you need to be aware of. 1) You need to be able to get up and down boat-type stairs. Just face the stairs on the way down - like on a boat - and you'll be fine. 2) I'm 5'4" and I still had to worry about my head in a few places. It's not a problem at all, but if you are super tall you'll need to be a bit more careful 3) You'll need to be gentle on the plumbing. Again, not a problem if you are a bit careful. The host was awesome and responsive. This is one of the best Airbnbs we've ever stayed at and we would highly recommend it. The immediate surroundings are beautiful and PACKED with amazing restaurants. You can book this and be certain you'll love it!
Houseboat rentals with a patio

Luxury Houseboat Amsterdam, free parking
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.

Cozy complete boathouse
We had a wonderful weekend at Justin's. We felt comfortable immediately and everything was very clean. From the accommodation you can easily make excursions to Leiden, The Hague or the sea. The place is very private and quiet. Justin always responded quickly to our messages and was flexible with check-in and check-out times. I will recommend the accommodation! 😊

Fantastic houseboat on the Vinkeveense Plassen
Very peaceful accommodation, the only noises you will hear will be those of ducks and geese. Listing is as described. Everything you need for a pleasant stay. Carla is very responsive. She greeted us when we arrived and had planned small treats for us, which we found very friendly. We would highly recommend and will definitely make a new stopover when we return to the country!

Delightful Modern Houseboat with sunny patio
Fern’s houseboat was AMAZING! Hands down my favorite Airbnb ever. Interior was beautiful and well kept. Location was close to so many shops, restaurants and the tram. Fern was very helpful and always responsive. Pepper was easily my favorite part of the stay though 😊 🐈⬛ ❤️

Houseboat Amsterdam Jordaan - Downtown
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!

Spacious Water Villa With Sauna Near Amsterdam
We had a great stay here, the area is so beautiful and peaceful. The surrounding waterways were teeming with life and we had a wonderful time watching all the ducks geese swans herons and commorants. Plenty to do in Aalsmeer and lots of great restaurants and cafes. The house was lovely, nicely decorated and well equipped. Everything was as described/pictured, the sauna made the stay extra special. It was really easy to find the place with Mandy's detailed instructions and she was very quick to respond to any questions we had.

Brewer's houseboat for work and holiday!
A lovely houseboat out of the busy fray of Amsterdam with easily accessible public transportation, cafes and restaurants. The birdlife on the canal was a pleasure, including 5 recently hatched baby coots. Liz gave us proper food to give the parents and we enjoyed watching them feed their offspring. Great break from museums and all the activities of Amsterdam.

Maasbommel/NL - Houseboat on the Meuse
We had a great stay on Gert's houseboat! The boat is very lovingly decorated and there is no shortage of equipment for self-catering. Great to find, also thanks to Gert's precise description. Great view and tranquility, all in all highly recommended!
Waterfront houseboat rentals

Houseboat Marina Mookerplas (without roof terrace)
Great ambience, very quiet and pleasant, a dream for resting. It's just really hard to transport things from the car to the houseboat; the path is quite long. It would be nice if you could drive to the facility by car to unload. Otherwise, everything is great.

Cozy house boat by the lake
We had a wonderful time at the Cosy Houseboat! It was a relaxing and beautiful location, and the owners communications and instructions were excellent. The accommodation was well equipped and comfortable. It was a perfect family break and we’ll be back!

Step into 1923 Houseboat on Iconic Amstel River
We had amazing stay on the houseboat! The location was perfect and close to everything. We walked everywhere. The home was clean, spacious (especially for being a boat) and the host was easily available. Such a unique experience!

Wikkelboat 2 @ Floating Rotterdam Rijnhaven
Exquisite place, tiny house designed like a boat, where every corner is used and useful. But not too small, we were 3 people and with both beds open there is still place to sit at the table, sit in a couch and move around. Bathroom and kitchen have all it needs. Sleeping on the water was an experience to talk about. The location in the city is close to transports and walkable to the centre across the bridge. We rented their bikes for the day, all impeccable. Easy communication, spotless, fully equipped... all in all one of my best Airbnb stays.

Houseboat Aquatic Oasis
Just as described! We really enjoyed getting to experience life on a canal boat! It had everything as listed. We were able to walk to everything we needed or easily took a tram. The view was so pretty!

Sleeping on water 1
Mario is the best ambassadeur for air bnb. Highly recommended!

Woonark Karma
Nice spontaneous host! Space wonderfully practical with plenty of storage space and clean. Despite less pleasant weather, we had a great time on the houseboat and in the nice and beautiful area.

Houseboat with sloop on the Kaag/Warmond
A super great place to stay! You wake up in the morning with a view of the water. You can explore the area during the day with the associated boat. You will receive an introduction to this at the beginning. A very special vacation!
