Your Floating Home-Away-From-Home

Wonderful private nonsmoking family houseboat. Our real home, and you can stay here 1 or 2 nights as a home away from home holiday.

Maximum of 30 days rental.

Maximum of 4 guests allowed.

Unique location to stay for AMSTERDAM LIGHT FESTIVAL, Museum visits Rijksmuseum, Van Gogh, MOCO, Keukenhof, RAI events, Foodhallen, canals. 

Only for nonsmoking people to stay. Preferably a family (with kids) or retiries. Ideal stay because it is very central located to all main attractions in Amsterdam, either by foot, or by tram. 

As a true 'houseboater' I love to share the experience of living on the WATER. My houseboat will be entirely yours during your stay. (So you don't share it, but a few cabinets will be closed and stocked with my personal items.) I offer a personal approach and look forward to welcome you aboard. By sharing information about both the neighbourhood and the houseboat, you will feel like a local as soon as you enter. Note that it is a completely smokefree houseboat and terrace. Kids all love the houseboat and never want to leave anymore! Leidse Square, Museum Square and Jordaan 9 shopping streets area are all within walking distance. Trams and busses stop around the corner. Attractions, restaurants and supermarkets are within 3 minutes. Although the houseboat is very central, it is tucked away from the hussle and bussle of the city centre, so you will wake up by the sounds of birds... 

Before making an enquiry: I only host my home to strict non-smokers. My houseboat is also Not to book for partypeople or young friends group. 

• The houseboat is equipped for a nice and cozy family life. Private houseboat with private terrace and the waterview throughout the windows is amazing.

On arrival you'll find a welcome basket with wine, juice, fruits, Dutch cookies, many discountvouchers, an information map with secret non-touristy spots and a cityplan. The houseboat is a unique, cozy, clean, comfortable home at a central location. Just sit back and relax on the outside roofed terrace and enjoy the birds and boats pass by while you enjoy a drink in the evening or your breakfast in the morning. Make your breakfast in the private, cozy kitchen and eat dinner at the many restaurants within walking distance; Foodhallen, Vegitalian etc. We (me and my daughter) live a healthy life, therefore this houseboat is completely nonsmoking. Inside, as well as outside on the terrace and we hosts only completely nonsmoking families and couples.

There is a basic vintage kitchen, feel free to use whatever you want from the cupboards. You'll find a fridge, gascooker, Nespresso coffee machine, toaster, waterboiler etc. From the kitchen you can step outside and get on the water side terrace. No better place for a first cup of coffee or tea .. Or glass of wine. 

Lots of light is entering the boat and the large windows offer great views over the water. During the colder months January/February/November/December the boat is heated with a cosy and secure gas heater in the living room. Here you will also find a doublebed, measuring 190x140 cm on a higher leveled part.

In the seperate bedroom there is a comfortable, smaller double bed, measuring 180x130 cm. Ideal for your kid, a secure gasheater, washing sink and amazing waterview. Linen and towels, soap and shampoo are provided, so no need to bring any! 

For an extra kid we can create an extra campingbed in the living. For a baby a baby cot can be arranged. I have a kids seat available. Baby's and children count as persons too. Maximum of 4 persons are allowed to stay, according to the new city council law. 

The private bathroom is basic with a toilet and a nice pressure shower. 

My Taxi service is available to pick you up from the airport and bring you to the houseboat within approx. 18 minutes for only 40 euro total.

Feel free to ask me anything, always glad to give all information. In case of emergency my neighbors/hosts will be standby. This listing and price is for the whole private houseboat located at walking distance from the Jordaan area, Museumsquare and Foodhallen.
