Houseboat description

Our location
The houseboat is located in a quiet side channel of the IJ and is moored on a quiet dike with many other houseboats. On the other side of the dike is the Wilmkebreekpolder, a unique piece of nature in the middle of Amsterdam. The free NDSM wharf ferry is a 25-minute walk away or 5 minutes by bike. This will take you directly to the central station. Public transport is a 15 minute walk and in 25 minutes you are in the heart of the city.

If you want to explore the typical Dutch landscape with the vast green fields and charming waterways, our houseboat is also a perfect choice for you. It is nice to explore the small villages in the area by bike. The Zaanse Schans, world heritage site with its iconic windmills, is also within easy reach.

Good night
Our guests appreciate our place because we are not far from the center, but are not bothered by noisy tourist crowds in our neighborhood. This ensures a wonderful night's sleep in the comfortable double bed. During your stay you will certainly enjoy the aquatic life like a 'local'.

Room
After coming back from the city you can either chill in your room or enjoy our garden. Through a sliding door in your room it is also possible to sit on our floating terrace. You can also use our pedal boat to explore the canal. In the summer months you can swim in the canal, as many locals do. Of course we offer all the luxuries you would expect from a comfortable room: underfloor heating, fast WiFi, television / radio and a private entrance.

 

Breakfast
Breakfast is included in the price and served in your DIY (Do It Yourself) style room for you to enjoy at your own time.

Free parking
Yes, it is quite exceptional in Amsterdam, but parking on our dike is free!

Neighbourhood
We have a good relationship with our neighbors and would like to keep it that way. That is why we ask you to cooperate in this. The stay in our B&B is a party, but we are not a party location. So no loud music or discussions in our garden.

We hope to have given you the best possible impression of our floating B&B, but feel free to ask questions if you still have them. We are happy to help you!

    Warmly recommended

    We had a very good time at Roelie‘s House Boot. She picked us up at the Ferry and was very polite. The flat was very tidy and clean and there was everything you need in a B&B. For us, the highlight was the access to the canal through the window. You can literally take a swim out of bed. Also, we felt very comfortable with the sanitary installations and the bathroom in general, which is very roomy. The area is quiet and absolutely family friendly. You can reach the city center by taking a walk of ca 25mins plus the Ferry, which was absolutely OK for us. The location of the House Boat in Amsterdam North in general is an advantage since it brings you away from the crowded "main city" and it's busy energy (at least for us it felt that way). During our stay, Roelie was always reachable for us and our concerns. All in all, we recommend her place warmly to everyone who looks out for a well managend B&B on the outskirts of Amsterdam that offers you everything you need (plus a private "spot on the beach") for a relaxed city trip at an average price.

    Peace and quiet in the big city Show original

    We booked a B&B room with a private landlord on a houseboat and that's exactly what we got. The peace and quiet in the morning and evening when we sat on the terrace was a relief in the middle of Amsterdam. The houseboat is located not far from the highway in a quiet residential area. There is a parking space for the car and storage space for bicycles/e-bikes. Furthermore, the houseboat is approx. 2.5 km away from the free ferry to Amsterdam HBF. There are plenty of restaurants and a grocery store at the ferry pier. If you want to get to the center of Amsterdam quickly and at the same time switch off and have peace and quiet, this is the right place for you.

    Wonderful short vacation Show original

    The room is lovingly furnished and Roelie tried very hard to make us feel comfortable. Already on arrival we had breakfast for three days in the fridge and we were personally instructed in everything. The location was perfect for us. In about half an hour we were in the city center of Amsterdam by ferry, at night we felt like we were in the country because it was really super quiet. There is the possibility to sit on the jetty at the canal or to swim. Wonderful! In addition, the ferry dock at the NDSM is about 5 minutes away, where many cultural events take place and various artists are active. Very interesting! All in all it was a very nice short trip in a very lovingly furnished one-room apartment on Roelie's houseboat.

    Wonderful stay in Amsterdam Show original

    With my wife we stayed 5 days at Roelie. The place was charming and the beautiful setting the room was very good with all the necessary comfort. I particularly liked having breakfast available the day before: no schedule to keep, so late morning possible. It was hot during our stay and we found that the apartment kept the heat of the day well. So we slept with the window open. Roelie is very helpful, smiling and available. I highly recommend the place! If I had to point out one or two suggestions for improvement, I would suggest putting a mosquito net.
