The studio is part of a whole houseboat, totally private from the other part of the houseboat. It has beautiful large sliding windows which gives you the most amazing view across the canal at the 400 year old warehouses with their beautiful colorful shutters.

The studio has a very comfortable double bed with a ceiling fan for the warmer nights. It also has central heating. A tv with Netflix. It has a small ‘kitchenette’ with fridge, microwave, coffeemachine teakettle but WITHOUT a sink.

How to get there

Amsterdam Airport is close to the city, it will take 20 minutes by taxi. The train will run 4x an hour and takes you 15 minutes and walking from the station about 10/15 minutes to the houseboat.

About the area

The area is ‘the Jordaan’. There is a twice weekly market/farmers market just opposite and around the corner of the houseboat. Many restaurants, cafes, outdoor terraces and shops around. Many sights close by. Supermarket and grocery stores very close. The famous Haarlemmerdijk is just 200 meters away. It is a very happy, fun loving, bustling area and yet not as busy as other parts of Amsterdam. Sometimes the canal looks and feels like a 18th century fishing village.

    Very nice short trip to Amsterdam

    My daughter and her boyfriend enjoyed some beautiful days in Amsterdam. And Danielle’s houseboat was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the city. They really loved the place. Danielle and her boat are highly recommended for everybody who is searching for a stay in Amsterdam.

    Excellent experience!

    This houseboat was perfect for our 5-day stay in Amsterdam! Very close in proximity to public transport, as well as everything we needed and wanted to do. Our host was very good at communicating with us and very accommodating to our needs. So glad we ended up staying here and would highly recommend!

    Wonderful place!

    We had lousy weather, but our stay was very nice. Swans were swimming along the studio which is clean, cosy and close to nice restaurants and cafés. Even though there was some noise at the street at night, we did not hear a thing because of the good isolation. We brought our own breakfast but there is no need to, everything can be bought in the neighborhood. We loved it!!
