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.

    Romantic Houseboat

    We stayed at the houseboat for 5 nights in mid-December and had a wonderful time. A comfortable, quaint 100 year old houseboat in a great neighborhood and close to many of the great attractions of Amsterdam as well as shops, markets, and restaurants. Lydia was so much fun to talk to and couldn't do enough for us!

    Genuine houseboat

    We had a very nice stay at Lydia's place. Perfect location and a wonderful breakfast at a cafe nearby.

    Adorable!!

    This little boat was just as cute as it could be. Unfortunately, the night we stayed was very chilly and rainy/snowy so we didn’t get to enjoy sitting on the deck and watching the sights. The location is great and we enjoyed walking around even if we had to walk in the rain. Lydia, the owner, was super nice and her cat came over to welcome us as well. I would stay here again but would prefer warmer weather.

    Romantic Houseboat

    We had a lovely few days over New Year on Lydia's houseboat. Whilst the weather was cold, the boat was warm and cosy. The boat has everything a couple would need for a comfortable stay. We really appreciated the welcome pack. The boat is centrally located, so you can walk to all of the attractions. We would recommend it for an authentic stay in Amsterdam.
