We enjoyed a perfect little 2 night stay at the Boathouse after a whirlwind family trip to Italy. It was our first trip to Amsterdam and we are so glad to have found this perfect spot on a canal. Communication was immediate, and we were able to walk easily to the tram to travel all over the city. We plan to return! Thank you!

We had a great stay here. The area is very nice and we really enjoyed walking along the path next to the other house boats. The bed was very comfortable, the space was clean, and the check in process was easy.

We had a great longer weekend near Amsterdam. The owner were very friendly and helpful for the start of our staying. The houseboat is perfectly equipped for a couple and very comfortable. With the two bicycles, part of the houseboat, it was very easy to reach city centre
