Light and private room 'Dune'

Welcome aboard. Stay safe and corona-proof in B&B de Albatros. 

The Dune Room on our floating B&B in the Northern part of Amsterdam has its own bathroom, ensuring all the privacy you want during your stay. Thanks to the large window, the room is very light and bright. You will love the swans, ducks and geese passing by, the tranquility of our neighborhood, the garden and the hospitality that we offer. Breakfast is DIY style and can be enjoyed at your own time in your room or in the garden.

Our location

The houseboat is docked in a quiet and lovely canal with lots of other houseboats.  The free ferry NDSM Wharf is 20 minutes on foot or 5 on a bike. It takes you straight to central Station. Public transport is around the corner and you can reach the heart of the city in 20 minutes. 

If you like to explore the typical Dutch landscape with the wide green fields and charming waterways, our houseboat is the perfect pick for you too. By bike the small villages of Waterland are nice to explore.  The Zaanse Schans, world heritage with the iconic windmills, is also within reach. 

Great night sleep

Our guests appreciate our place for the fact that we're within easy reach of the centre, yet you won't find any loud tourist masses in our neighborhood. You will truly be a part of our community during your stay and enjoy the water life like a local. And you are assured to have a great night rest for sure. There is a comfortable double bed, that can be taken apart on request. Please inform us before your stay if you want two separate single beds so we can prepare this for you.  

Private garden and swimming

After coming back from the city you can either relax in your private room, or enjoy the garden that we offer to our guests. During the summer you can go swimming in our canal, like many locals do. 

Of course we offer all the luxury that you may expect from a comfortable room: good central heating, fast wifi and a private entrance. 

Breakfast

Our breakfast is DIY-style, served in the common hall  and to be enjoyed in your own room or the garden at your own time. This is included in the price, and has a nice Dutch touch to it with cheese, meat and fresh fruit.

Free parking

Yes, it is quite exceptional in Amsterdam, but we do offer free parking in our street!

We hope to have given you the best impression of our floating B&B possible, but don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions. We're always glad to help!

PS one last thing: We are non-smokers and we find it hard to accomodate heavy smokers in and around our house. So if you want to smoke a lot, please find somewhere else to stay.  Thanks for understanding!
