About this docked boat rental

Short stay!

This nicely renovated and beautiful decorated Houseboat-Apartment is located at one of the most desired locations in the center of Amsterdam - on walking distance from the famous Jordaan area, Leidse Square, Museums and close to the Vondelpark.

There is a large grocery store (Albert Heijn) for your daily needs at the Kinkerstraat. There is also a full service laundry service (Wassalon Miela) close to the Houseboat-apartment at the Kinkerstraat.

The apartment is located in district "Oud West" (Old-West), a neighbourhood for anyone who wants to enjoy the bustling character of the city together with the locals. In recent years, the neighbourhood has become a popular neighbourhood among people in their twenties and thirties. The explanation is simple: "Oud West" has an endless amount of hip coffee shops and affordable tasty restaurants. The old tram depot of the district has been renamed "De Hallen" (The Hallen): a new hotspot in Amsterdam where you can eat and drink at one of the many street food stalls and where you can even go to the cinema. Monthly activities such as the "Local Goods Market" are organized here.

Here an example of the several walking tours:
This walking tour is for culture lovers who like to visit museums. The Museumplein is of course not to be missed during this route. In addition, you will see a lot of interesting architecture, both old and new. People who love good food will also get their money's worth at the countless cafes and restaurants on the "Overtoom" and in "the new Hallen". It is a long tour, which you can also do well by bike.

You start at the Rijksmuseum, the Van Gogh Museum or the Stedelijk, all of which have been thoroughly renovated in recent years. At the Rijksmuseum, this may have yielded the most special result. In 80 rooms that have been beautifully renovated, you can immerse yourself in the history of our Dutch masters, with Rembrandt's Night Watch as the highlight.

Afterwards you can relax in the "Vondelpark", the most famous park in Amsterdam. You continue your way towards Oud-West and discover numerous creative companies that have settled here in recent years. In the "Kinkerbuurt" (Kinker neighbourhood) you will pass "De Hallen"(The Hallen), the newest cultural and culinary hotspot in the city. Since 2014, this former tram depot from the early 20th century has been home to stalls with tasty dishes: a perfect concept for a pleasant evening out with friends. These "Foodhallen" are the ideal stop for both large and small hunger.

The advantage of this Houseboat-Apartment is that it's situated in the heart of Amsterdam on walking distance from the most desired areas in the old town and close to most attractions, shops, restaurants and nightlife.

Helmers neighbourhood, Amsterdam, North Holland, Netherlands.

Our host was warm and welcoming, and personally met us at the residence. Everything was cleanly and charming, and well-functioning - we were made to feel relaxed and at home. I slept so well and the kitchen offered everything we could need, including coffee and a welcome drink! Everything was cozy and stylish - the only disappointment was that the listed rental description had listed a queen bed in the bedroom, as well as a queen bed for the living room couch. Upon arrival it was clear that the couch was not a pull-out bed. We made due and this did not present an issue for us, as my co/traveler was a young adult and slept comfortably on the couch. Even so, the site should be updated of what was likely a clerical error.Also, we were unable to get the keys back into the lockbox, which seemed a little precarious positioned over the canal.We realllly loved our stay, and would highly recommend. Thank you!

Great quiet location, extremely close to trams, restaurants, and grocery. Fully stocked kitchen, iron, hair dryer, and many other amenities to make the week comfortable and convenient. Will be looking to stay again next year!

I attended a conference in Amsterdam. Our stay was excellent overall. The location is fantastic and the house boat is charming. We had a functional kitchen and were also close to different restaurants and shops. We enjoyed sitting at the bistro table with a glass of wine.

We had a perfect stay at this houseboat! The location is ideal, nice quiet canal and easy walking distance to everything. The boat is spacious and well equipped. It is on the sunny side of the canal, so pleasant to sit on the deck & enjoy a glass of wine after a long day of exploring. We would easily stay here again and highly recommend it!!
