Houseboat Bluewater is a lovely houseboat situated on one of the most beautiful canals in Amsterdam. The area is favored by many locals because of it’s authenticity and atmosphere. It is the lovely Jordaan area with many quaint shops, nice restaurants and café's. AT THE MOMENT IT IS 10 MIN WALK AWAY FROM THE JORDAAN AREA

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. 
There is a small seating area in front of the large window.

A private bathroom with double vanity and glass shower stall and a separate private toilet. There is a ledge outside the sliding window with a small bench to sit and watch the pleasure boats go by or feed the swans and ducks.

For your welcome there will be a bottle of wine waiting for you in the fridge. There are 2 bikes at your disposal. Enjoy your stay!

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 terrasses 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.  

PLEASE NOTE:

THE HOUSEBOAT WILL BE RELOCATED BEGINNING OF SEPTEMER 2022 UNTILL MAY 2024 TO THE ZOUTKEETSGRACHT 7K BECAUSE OF CONTRUCTION WORK ON THE BROUWERSGRACHT QUAY. THE ZOUTKEETSGRACHT IS ALSO A VERY NICE HISTORICAL LOCATION.

BECAUSE OF THIS CHANGE I HAVE LOWERED MY PRICES.
THE LOCATION IS STILL VERY NICE TO GET AROUND AND ENJOY AMSTERDAM.

    What a privilege to live here!

    Just a quick review from the airport before we head back to DownUnder ;-) Thanks for having us, and big thumbs up for the love and work you have put into your floating home. We are grateful to have stayed in your houseboat for a few days and will never forget the tranquility, the great neighborhood and the experience of living on the water in general. Highly recommended!

    Great houseboat!

    This was my first time on a houseboat and I was expecting it to be more like a boat, but it turned out to be more like a house. However, it was the only house I've stayed at with a patio at water level. The location was great, the furnishing was great, the host was very communicative and hospitable. Full marks, would stay again.
