Welcome to your stay

A Unique Stay on the Canals

A private floating suite experience in the heart of Amsterdam.

Wake up on the Prinsengracht, while boats gently pass your window and the city slowly comes to life around you.

Prime Location in the Jordaan

Our boutique houseboat suites are located in the iconic Jordaan area, one of Amsterdam’s most charming and authentic neighborhoods, just steps away from the 9 Streets, Westerkerk, and Anne Frank House.

Luxury and Comfort on the Water

The suites are part of a newly built luxury houseboat, designed for peaceful, intimate stays on the canals. Each suite has its own private entrance, private bathroom, and carefully designed interior with warm boutique details.

Whether you’re visiting for a romantic getaway, a special occasion, or simply to experience Amsterdam differently, this is a place to slow down and enjoy the city from the water.

Your Hosts and Extra Services

We live on the other side of the houseboat, with our own entrance, sharing only the hallway, allowing guests privacy during their stay.

Bike rental is possible.

Or you go via Amsterdam Central station. From there it takes 10 minutes (5 minutes tram and 5 minutes walk).

About the area

The houseboat is situated in a lovely area, near galleries of the 9 streets and is surrounded with many many cafes and restaurants, all very nearby. We will help you make your choice..

It is very near all must-sees and must-go's, even though it is a quiet place, this is the best of both worlds.

Bryan

My name is Bryan,
And I come from the beautiful island of Curaçao. I’m 23 years old and cherish the connections I build with people. My passion for hospitality was cultivated through my experiences and the kindness I've received from others. I speak Dutch, English, Spanish, and Papiamento, which allows me to communicate with guests from various backgrounds. I love serving others, and running a bed and breakfast gives me the chance to share warmth, stories, and laughter, just like those who have inspired me throughout my travels.

    Weekend adventuring

    Located in Amsterdam's city center, Enza & Caspar's houseboat is the perfect place to spend your city break. The houseboat is minutes away from all necessities, including supermarket, cafes and restaurants but also remote enough to recharge, relax & enjoy the view. The owners are open & welcoming and very attentive to details. They offer valuable insights on transportation as well as local jewels that need exploring. The suite itself has everything you would need, all you have to bring is your toothbrush. It was a true delight spending time in Enza's & Caspar's modern houseboat, a floating gem in the heart of the city.

    Great place to stay in the center of Amsterdam

    We had a great stay on the houseboat of Enza and Caspar. The van Gogh suite is beautifully decorated, luxurious and equipped with all comforts. Good address when visiting Amsterdam, hospitable hosts. Recommended!

    Amazing all the way!

    We stayed in Bryan’s houseboat for 2 nights and absolutely loved the experience and location. It was very clean and comfortable! We made a little coot friend who loved to come see us at our window. We got to see many boats go by. Highly, highly recommended, and definitely will be back!
