Welcome to your stay

Our floating B&B 'Happiness together' in Amsterdam Noord is safe and Corona-proof. You will stay in a spacious room with private bathroom. You will have all the privacy you want and will definitely enjoy the great view over the water. Our guests appreciate the tranquility in our neighborhood, the garden and the hospitality we offer.

Explore your stay

Our location
The houseboat is located in a quiet side canal of the IJ River and moored on a peaceful dike with many other houseboats. On the other side of the dike lies the Wilmkebreekpolder, a unique natural area in the heart of Amsterdam. The free NDSM Wharf ferry is a 25-minute walk or a 5-minute bike ride away. It takes you directly to Central Station. Public transport is a 15-minute walk away, and the city center is a 25-minute journey.

If you'd like to explore the quintessential Dutch landscape, with its expansive green fields and charming waterways, our houseboat is the perfect choice. It's also fun to explore the small villages in the area by bike. The Zaanse Schans, a World Heritage site with its iconic windmills, is also within easy reach.

Good night's sleep
Our guests appreciate our location because we're close to the city center, yet away from the noisy tourist crowds in our neighborhood. This guarantees a wonderful night's sleep in the comfortable double bed. For hygiene reasons, we use a combined duvet and pillowcase.
You will certainly enjoy the aquatic life during your stay like a 'local'.

Room
After returning from the city, you can either relax in your room or enjoy our garden. Sliding doors in your room also allow you 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. Naturally, we offer all the luxuries you would expect from a comfortable room: underfloor heating, fast Wi-Fi, a refrigerator, kettle, coffee maker, egg cooker, television/radio, and a private entrance.

We use a duvet and cover in one for hygiene reasons.

 

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

Paid parking
Paid parking will be in effect on our dike from November 17, 2025

Neighbourhood
We have a good relationship with our neighbors and would like to maintain it. Therefore, we ask for your cooperation in this regard. While staying at our B&B is a celebration, we are not a party venue. So, please refrain from loud music or discussions in our garden.

We hope we've given you the best possible impression of our floating B&B, but please don't hesitate to ask any questions you may have. We're happy to help!

    Short trip to AmsterdamShow original

    We spent four unforgettable days in this special accommodation and were absolutely thrilled to have ended up here! It's cozy, has everything you need, including breakfast, and is located right on the water. A huge plus is both the beautiful location and the reliable taxi service from the harbor. We were picked up from the NDSM shipyard. Even the bicycle rental was arranged for us with minimal hassle! We would love to come back! Eva & Theresa

    Everything is great!Show original

    We enjoyed our stay very much. Roelie and Jan are very friendly (thank you very much for the trip to the ferry and the printed bike map as well as the use of the stand-up paddling) The houseboat is the perfect starting point for excursions into the city. In the evening you can sit comfortably and quietly by the water.

    Highly recommendedShow original

    Our stay at Happiness together was very nice. We found a lovingly prepared apartment, check in and check out were easy and stress-free. The apartment was clean and tidy. The hostess is very friendly and helpful. We were able to easily use public transport to get to Amsterdam city center (~40 min.) and enjoyed the quiet and beautiful location of the houseboat on the water.
