Welcome to your stay

Providing you with the best possible houseboat experience and creating everlasting memories is our mission. We do this by showing old-fashioned hospitality, serving a delicious European breakfast and offering free bicycles for you to use during your stay. You have access to the large wheelhouse with a view of our harbor and the apartment in the back of the ship. Although my husband and I live aboard the same ship, you probably won't even notice we're there during your stay. But if you have any questions, we are of course always there for you!

Explore your stay

When you arrive at our wharf you will notice that we are a true houseboat community. A wide variety of ships are docked here, and one of them will be your floating home. From the jetty you board our ship, a former seaworthy ship built in Hamburg to build the Baltic Sea and which now serves as our floating home and bed and breakfast.

We personally welcome you on board and share useful information and answer all your questions. Time to discover the ship, starting with the wheelhouse, furnished with vintage furniture and a super cool captain's chair. Hard to resist not to sit here and feel what it's like to be a true captain!

Now we descend via the stairs (which are steep, so not suitable for everyone) to the apartment. Here you will find on your right hand gates. In the front of the ship is a single bed in case you are traveling with three or want to sleep separately. The bathroom is very ship-like: small but handy, with sink, shower and toilet.

There is a compact kitchenette with a sink, refrigerator, kettle and coffee maker. Breakfast with croissants, cold cuts, cheese, jam, yogurt and fresh orange juice is included in the price and served to your front door every morning. Please note that we do not provide cooking facilities, but who really has the desire to cook when there are so many great restaurants and bars nearby? You just walk onto the quay and within a few minutes walk you will find various delicious food and beverage outlets.

You have good access to the city, which makes our location attractive to receive good and quiet guests, a good habit of the city center. You can reach the old town within 10 to 15 minutes by bike and the connections to public transport are also excellent. The old town part is about 15 minutes away and the part about 30 to 40 minutes, depending on where you want to be.

Our neighborhood has that little bit more, we feel that every day: wide views over the water, no tourist crowds and a real sense of connection with other people who live here. And last but not least I want to say that our waters are just perfect for swimming during the summers. It's certainly clean and fresh, so don't forget to bring your swimsuit when you honor us with your visit!

I hope to have given you the best possible impression, but don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions - always happy to help!

PS maybe needless to say but smoking any kind of drugs from parties on board is not allowed. We have a good relationship with our neighbors and we want to keep it that way. Thanks for understanding!

About the area

Modern architecture, old ships, wide views and the sense of freedom. That's what characterizes our neighborhood.

    Beautiful & relaxing

    This place is for me deep relaxing. You are close to the city, but have silence around, fall asleep in the underdeck, deeply. Coriene & Caspar, sweet & warm hosts, everything else is said here from others before. Just true 🙂🌹💕 Monique & Petra

    Once captainShow original

    Apart from the weather in Amsterdam, we had a fantastic stay. The location is perfect, quiet and you can quickly get to the center by bike. The bus station is right outside the door. A super comfortable bed and a fantastic breakfast, what more could you want. It is of course as you would expect on a houseboat, a steep staircase down, bathroom and toilet tiny but still very cozy.

    Super stay houseboat AmsterdamShow original

    Exploring Amsterdam and sleeping on a houseboat was great! Slept well, cute cabin and view of the water from the wheelhouse, extensive breakfast on deck, very clean, bicycles available, friendly host and lady, in short, nothing to add. This is worth repeating!!

    Lovingly managed boat & breakfastShow original

    We spent a long weekend on the houseboat, it is in a quiet area with a lot of houseboats. With the bikes you can get to the center very quickly and get around authentically in Amsterdam, great fun. The breakfast is very loving and the boat is very comfortable and clean. A great experience. I would never choose a hotel again!
