Houseboat description

Situated on one of the most beautiful canals, THE BROUWERSGRACHT, you will find houseboat GALEFORCE ONE. A houseboat with a self-catering studio for your holiday rental or city break.

Imagine having an unforgettable stay in a houseboat on one ofthe most beautiful canals right in the most popular area of Amsterdam, THE JORDAAN. You will find most points of interest within walking distance and there is an abundance of small pubs, cafs andcozy restaurants for you to enjoy yourbreakfast,lunch or dinner all around the houseboat.

If you are looking for a special holiday, you will not find a better location to experience staying on a houseboat. The connection with the water and the animals floating past your window while sitting on your private deck. Swans and ducks begging for a scrap of bread and all kinds of small boats passing by with people enjoying a leisurely boat ride. It's the ultimate way to enjoy the best Amsterdam has to offer on the water.

Now something more about the place itself. The studio offers all the privacy you want and you don't need to share any space only the front door with me. In the studio, you will find a very comfortable double bed from where you have a water view. Furthermore, there is enough closet space and a fan to ensure a cool breeze during hot summer days. The wide windows with sliding doors let in lots of light and give access to a small waterside terrace. A wonderful place to just sit back and relax while the always-changing city views pass by. Now you will feel like truly like a real 'Amsterdammer'.

In the private bathroom, you will find a walk-in shower, sink, and toilet.

I hope to have given you the best impression possible and look forward to welcoming you aboard!

About the area

Location! Location! Location! That's most important where you are, well the Gaiforce One Houseboat is situated in just about the best and nicest location in Amsterdam. In the very heart of the 18th century old city-centre. If you look outside you have the feeling you find yourself in a 18th century oil painting. All around you there are 3 to 400 year old canal-houses and warehouses. It can't get better than that! It's amazing!

The houseboat is located on the canal-belt in THE JORDAAN, which used to be the poorest area of Amsterdam in the olden days, but is now the most trendy and favoured area by locals and tourists. There is a maze of narrow streets, with many lovely restaurants, pubs and quaint shops. On almost every corner you will find an café with an outdoor terrace, where you can enjoy a drink while watching the hustle and bustle of life on the canals.

In the 17th/18th century Amsterdam was a thriving trading post where ships brought their ware from all over the world to be stored in the warehouses of The Brouwersgracht. These warehouses you still see today and from your window! when staying on The Guest-Houseboat, these are now converted into very popular luxury and trendy loft apartments, sought after by locals and ex-pats.

Apart from the beauty of the area, the houseboat is ideally located for your visits to many of the important sights and a mere 10 minutes walk from the Central Station, would you want to travel outside of Amsterdam to for instance, The Hague (40 minutes by train), Haarlem (15 minutes), Rotterdam(50 minutes) or the airport ( 15 minutes) even the beach is just 20 minutes by train.

So you see... LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION!!!

    Nice place in the Jordaan

    Thank you Patricia for the welcoming. This is a nice tiny place on the beautiful channel. Very warm and cozy even in February. This is a unique experience. Ps, the house isn’t fully rented but only half.

    Another piece of the Amsterdam Experience

    Always wanted to experience Amsterdam from a houseboat. Got to see other boats passing by. Patricia’s houseboat is lovely and there are lots of restaurants and grocery stores nearby.

    Great houseboat Show original

    The houseboat is very comfortably furnished and clean. On the small terrace you can sit comfortably, feed the ducks and seagulls or just enjoy the view or people. In the evening when it is dark, the water reflects in the whole bedroom... very romantic! Opposite the houseboat is a pub where you can eat a croissant and drink a coffee in the morning. Next door is a Saturday market. The center is within walking distance and the area has a lot to offer. Patrizia is very friendly. All in all, the houseboat can only be recommended.

    Wonderful stay in Amsterdam!

    We absolutely loved this houseboat and the area! Close to many restaurants, cafes, coffee shops, and shopping. The houseboat was beautiful, and the views of the water were gorgeous. The host also compiled a helpful binder full of suggestions for places to go. Definitely consider staying here. You won’t be disappointed!
