Explore your stay

This Romantic Houseboat is an antique boat converted in to a small but very comfortable apartment. The style of the house can only be described as uncluttered 'old Amsterdam' style. 

Located in the center everything can be walked from here, the boat is 15 min walk from central station.

Only five minutes walk from Dam Square, and 15 from Central Station. The boat is surrounded by many restaurants, cafes, bars, Rembrandt Square, Nieuwmarkt, Waterlooplein and markets (Waterlooplein) Amsterdam's Stopera (the principal opera house) are all in view from the apartment which means that even a spontaneous stroll through the neighborhood could turn most exiting.

As its a boat you get to see Amsterdam from a very unique perspective and truly enjoy the canals in a romantic way. Street musicians do choose to perform near the market (close to the boat) so it is possible you would find yourself waking up to the sound of violins.

The boat is 100 years old which means it’s antic, romantic and very quiet. It’s not a 5 star hotel room what makes it very cosy. There are also 2 cats on board. One off them is really famous:) police cat amsterdam … 

Feeding the ducks in the morning is really nice as well to do.

    We felt at home from the very first minute. Lydia, with her warm personality, is the perfect host. The quiet surroundings, despite the central location, make it easy to unwind. Thank you for the wonderful time!🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

    Great again!Show original

    This was my second time on the boat, and I loved it again. Our daughter, who came with me this time, was also immediately captivated by the whole atmosphere of the accommodation. The location is perfect for exploring Amsterdam. And Lydia is absolutely adorable :) Not to forget Nimis, who looked after us and always greeted us in the mornings, and Boef, the"little mouse,"is so sweet too. I'd love to come back again.

    A lovely & romantic stay!

    We had such a lovely time on this boat. The boat was so cosy and Lydia had added extra detail to make this a really romantic stay. The boat is in a fantastic location. Lydia is a really lovely host who was incredibly accommodating. We would definitely book again!

    Beautiful, one-of-a-kind stay in Amsterdam

    We had a wonderful stay on Lydia's houseboat. She was super accommodating and helpful from beginning to end, and the boat itself was just as charming as we'd imagined. We especially enjoyed sitting up on the upper deck/terrace to sip our morning coffee or watch the night fall over the city. The canal/street the boat is on is remarkably quiet, especially given how close it is to everything (we walked everywhere!). Oh, and the cats are so friendly and would come over to say hello regularly. Very sweet. All in all, we highly recommend staying here!
