Houseboat description
This houseboat is a full-fledged, updated and stylish apartment on the water! It has been recently renovated everything is in perfect condition. Radiant / floor-heating, insulation, updated utilities and new appliances. Connectivity and entertainment all works great. The decor is tasteful, sleek and stylish. You can enjoy sipping yummy coffee and looking out the large windows onto the canal in the mornings.
The living room offers lots of space and the open fully equipped kitchen is perfect for preparing meals during your stay. We offer a large 5-stove burner with an oven and a microwave, as well as a dish washer, large fridge with freezer, cooker, coffee maker and all utensils for your convenience. And if you don't like cooking, be assured that there are countless great local restaurants within a few minutes walking, as well ass cool bars.
The location on the verge of the Jordaan is just perfect, within walking distance from the city center with shopping and lots of place of interest nearby. To give you an impression: the Anne Frank House and Westerkerk are located about 5 minutes walking away. Want to go to the Leidseplein (Leidse Square), just hop on the tram and you will be there literally in a few minutes. Public transit is just around the corner, and airport transfer is a breeze.
As a host I'm responsive and attentive to your needs. I will meet you in person during check-in. You will have a wonderful experience. Look forward to welcome you aboard and share the houseboat life with you!
From Central Station you just hop on tram 13 and after about 10 minutes you get of again, around the corner of our houseboat. Super easy and convenient!
About the area
Our houseboat is located right between the buzzing Jordaan area and the cozy 'Old West' with lots of bars and restaurants nearby. Within 1 minute walking you will find already 5 restaurants and the same amount of bars. A super market called 'Sterk' with over 500 beers, and the most amazing wines and champagnes can be found right across the street. What's not to like!
Our visit to Amsterdam was given an extra dimension by the comfort aboard the houseboat of Isadora. Not only the location is super convenient, but also the boat itself. It feels like a modern apartment, but then with swans and ducks swimming by, happy people in boats enjoying the water life and the reflection of the water dancing on the ceiling. What a great place to stay. And as a beer enthusiast I have to say that I found the most amazing delicatessen shop just around the corner on the other side of the street. Finding this much local and unique beers made me a very happy person. Top notch! Thanks for this unique experience and we hope to be back next year, again staying on your boat if available. Highly recommended.
Lovely weekend in Amsterdam

The houseboat is great! It is very clean, is equipped with everything you might want to need, wonderful beds and bedding. It is right next to a tram station which makes traveling within the city super easy and comfortable. The owner is very reliable and super easy to communicate with. I would recommend it to anyone who ever wants to experience a stay at a houseboat! What is more lovely than a little duck coming to the window in the morning and asking for a crumb of bread. We enjoyed it tremendously!
Great Houseboat

Great hosts and nice hosts. The location is close to everything and was hoping with activity. There's a grocery store on the corner of you want to stock up on snacks and drinks. Isadora was very responsive when the houseboat had a minor electrical issue. The issue was resolved immediately. There were bath towels but as we were there ladies we could have used more and didn't think to ask. We would have washed the towels (and also the tablecloth - sorry) but there is no washer. Also be sure to bring a converter for 110 electrical since the houseboat has standard European outlets. If you forget to bring one you can purchase it at any number of convenience stores on Rozengracht. Would definitely recommend a stay at Isadora's houseboat.

Wonderful holiday

The houseboat is wonderful, everything is brand new and everything is clean. The view on the canal is breathtaking, especially towards a church some hundreds meters away. It is also well connected to the main attractions of the city and to the airport. Isadora was very kind in storaging our luggage til our departure in late afternoon. I would suggest for sure this houseboat to one of my friend!
Easter in Amsterdam

Staying on Isadora’s houseboat was a smart decision; it is stylish, comfortable and in a great location. It is so easy to get around from there, whether on foot or the easily-accessed trams and buses that are a few steps away. The neighbourhood is full of great restaurants and cafés as well as a large grocery store a block away. In the mornings it was wonderful to sit in front of the open windows with a coffee and watch the boats going by. But it made leaving the boat a bit difficult.
Communicating with Isadora was very easy and she answered all of my questions. I would highly recommend a houseboat experience for anyone considering it.
