Explore your stay

Have you ever been on a houseboat before? Come and visit ours! Our modern and spacious studio is a great way to stay on a boat. We've been developing this brand new houseboat and it was finished in 2020. So everything seriously is completely modern, the ship was constructed out of steel plates and everything in the design is well-thought of.

NO head-bumping as all heights are high enough, NO moisture and NO cold nights as all isolation is thick and there is floor heating and CV everywhere. We guarantee an absolutely PRIVATE stay on the boat. NO sharing, NO disturbances. We ourselves live on the same ship, so we'll notice each other on our deck terraces. Also, do keep in mind -while the adjacent walls are thick- we might be able to hear each other move about. So let's both respect our relaxation.

The area for sure is the best place to experience Amsterdam, it's a hidden gem just outside the hustle and bustle of the mass tourism in Amsterdam.

About the area

The boat is located in the most romantic neighborhood in the city center. We believe it’s THE ultimate location to experience Amsterdam city, just outside the touristic area.

The area for sure is the best place to experience Amsterdam... that's if you're not chasing parties 24/7 or hunger for packed touristic streets. The houses in our neighborhood are most wanted and people who live around here... don't ever want to leave. A village in the center of Amsterdam, with lovely ROMANTIC bridges creating that ultimate holiday feeling, also for the ones living here.

On an island in between beautiful warehouses we are situated in a lee which makes your stay pleasant for sure. Thereby we are in the ultimate sun angle, so we are always the first ones enjoying our sunny deck terrace in a t-shirt while a passerby still wears his winter coat.

Nadine

We are a family of 4, Gyom 11 and Izza 9 and Ruby 5 and me. We love travelling ourselves and are interested in countries beauties and cultures and we love to show you how we live here in Amsterdam. We are living on the canals of Prinseneiland for several years now and we never want to move, that's for sure. Nine years ago we have constructed this complete new houseboat, a historical boat-model but with all MODERN luxury such as floor heating and endless hot showers. We guarantee an absolutely PRIVATE stay. No sharing, no disturbances. You even have your private walkway and private deck terrace. We ourselves live on the same boat on the other side, so we'll notice each other move around.

    Special and very relaxedShow original

    Nadine and Edwin are great, very friendly hosts. The room is really pretty and the location is perfect! Quiet and yet central. You can really feel good. We had two really nice days on the houseboat! Thanks!

    Relax on the water!

    I didn’t quite know what to expect from this stay, having not stayed on a houseboat before. It was a beautiful little space, perfect to get away from the busy streets of the main city and it’s very sturdy. With only a 10-15 minute walk into town, or a couple of minutes on a bike, it’s perfect. Nadine was very friendly, offering advice on places to visit and letting us drop off our bags early. The personal touch with a note thanking us for staying and a little glass of fizz was sweet. Couldn’t ask for more for a long weekend.

    Wonderful stay in a perfect location

    We loved our stay on the Lucy Lou!! The studio is small but really nicely appointed. And I cannot say enough good things about the location. A quick bike ride, and you are in the center of Amsterdam! I also adored the deck that was so inviting to sit and relax in the mornings with a cup of coffee, and in the evenings for winding down. The neighborhood feels very safe. We would book this again in a heartbeat. Oh, and the bed is very comfortable!

    What a wonderful stay!

    My partner and I had the loveliest stay on Nadine’s beautiful houseboat! We arrived via Eurostar and walked from the station to the boat. Nadine let us know we could drop our bags before we headed out for the day. The house is just as described. While the space is small, it is laid out in a very convenient way to maximize space. I wish our stay was longer, but all the more reason to plan another visit! Thank you, Nadine and family, for the lovely accommodations! Cheers xx

    Super

    It was just fantastically beautiful and corresponded to everything as in the description. Great location, great view, great stay. If there had been snow it would have been perfect. We will definitely come back to enjoy it at a different time of the year!
