Explore your stay

The perfect place to relax after a busy day of sightseeing or even work! Our ship was originally built to transport cement powder in bulk all across the Netherlands, particularly through the Amstel River in the city of Amsterdam. After a two-year renovation, we converted the former cargo space into a spacious luxury home for ourselves and a beautiful luxury bed and breakfast! The bed and breakfast is situated in the front part of the ship and covers the whole front-side tank, a perfect place with a beautiful view over the lake.

The bed and breakfast features a sauna, bar with dishwasher and fridge, electrically adjustable beds, and Apple TV with Netflix and a projector. There are multiple take-away and delivery restaurants around the corner, including American, Surinamese, Indonesian, Thai, Italian, and Dutch foods. Please note that the B&B is NOT equipped with cooking facilities.

On the side, we have a small motorboat for rent, which you can take out for a ride on the lake! In the summer, of course, a swim is possible as well.

On request, 2 single person sofa beds can be put in place for a maximum of two additional guests or children; additional charges apply. A baby bed is available as well for free (please let us know in advance, so we can have everything set up upon your arrival).

Please bear in mind that we adhere to all rules and regulations to combat the coronavirus, including more intense cleaning of the place, and we do not allow visitors on board for our guests.

    Our first Stay

    What a wonderful place for our first adventure to Amsterdam. Our hostess, Lianne, took great care of us. Fresh pastries on our last day. Delicious. Location around the corner from tram stop makes it ideal as well.

    Houseboat review

    What a beautiful boat. There is everything you need on board. Fresh and clean. The hosts were lovely and welcoming. Breakfast is included and was 10/10. I would definitely recommend a trip here.

    A fascinating experience

    We had a great time in Lianne's houseboat! The house is very spacious and bright; we really enjoyed the sauna and the outdoor area, which we used to have a coffee in the morning or a beer at sunset. Lianne left us plenty of food and drinks for breakfast, as well as snacks; she also gave us lots of tips for getting around and visiting Amsterdam. We enjoyed watching a movie with the projector in the evening on the very large and comfortable sofa.

    Stay on the lovely boat for 4 Days

    Our stay was perfect, and Lianne was there for us the entire time, providing a fridge stocked to the brim every day, filled according to our preferences with a mix of homemade and Dutch treats. Even minor issues, such as a Wi-Fi outage, were resolved immediately. We always felt welcome and would highly recommend this host. For those who find access to the boat difficult, I would suggest traveling light or asking for assistance, I am sure the host family will find a solution. Upon departure, we were even allowed to store our suitcases temporarily, as we had an evening flight. Perfect stay, perfect days! Thanks so much, and lots of love from Lisa and Laura.

    Better than expected!!

    Our stay is a wonderful memory that we will cherish. The boathouse was equipped with everything you need, plus more. The bed was extremely comfortable, the space was huge, and the hosts were amazing. From the moment we arrived and were handed a cold drink to the delicious farewell breakfast, we couldn’t have dreamed of a better experience. Thank you!
