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.

    A MUST-BOOK SPOT!

    The houseboat itself is very quaint, the location within the city is perfect, and the host Lydia is incredibly welcoming! It doesn’t feel like a shared space at all—it feels very private.

    Warm and Cozy

    Our stay was short, but very quaint and comfortable. The boat is rustic, but we had everything we needed to be snug and cozy. The weather was too wet to enjoy the outside seating, but we still enjoyed ourselves. Will stay here again the next time we’re in Amsterdam.

    Wonderful stay

    Lydia was a fantastic host. We arrived a little early, and she was flexible on both check-in and check-out, which was warmly appreciated due to our flight times. We were treated to fizz and cake for my husband’s special birthday, which was truly going over and above. Visits from Tommy and Nimis were the icing on the cake. We don’t have pets at home, and we loved every second. I was a little worried staying in a houseboat in winter would be chilly, but this boat was so cosy and warm. Would definitely come back for another stay. Thank you, Lydia :)
