"Full of character - quirky, in a good way! - and in a wonderful location convenient for Amsterdam Centraal. Clean, comfortable, with a friendly and helpful host. Great all round!"

"We cannot say enough about how FANTASTIC this property is. Perfectly located near everything, yet in a quiet neighborhood; Albert's houseboat was absolutely one of our favorite aspects of our trip. Comfortable, fully equipped, it was hard to leave it every day (one day, we didn't leave till dinnertime!) Albert's helpful guide told us everything we needed to know about local markets, where to sightsee, and how to use all the vast amenities that are included. And if we had questions, Albert was...

"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"

"The houseboat meets or exceeds expectations from photos and descriptions. It is very well appointed with great amenities and in a great location. Robertino, the host, is very communicative and welcoming, and also a great source for recommendations in the area. We have stayed in Amsterdam before but have never experienced it like this and would highly recommend. It is a destination in itself."

"Beautiful 2-level space located within the bow of the family home (a small ship). One’s quarters are completely separate from the vessel’s full time occupants. The space is modern and clean, with wide open views over the river IJ. I biked there, multiple times back and forth to the city center. Pleasantly located away from the crowds, but an easy bike to the Central Station and main Canal Districts. Bike rack just onshore. Guest must be able to navigate spiral staircase connecting upper & lower...

"My friend and I absolutely loved our stay on the boat. The neighborhood is quiet so it was nice to get out of the hustle and bustle of Amsterdam Centre. The suite is spacious and very comfortable with all of the amenities you would need. Sander was very friendly and provided a lot of information about the area. The host provided welcome snacks and drinks and left fresh tulips on the table. Public transportation is very close to the dock including a free commuter ferry. We loved spending our time...

"Such a great location. Close to everything and quiet which was exactly what we were looking for! Host was wonderfully accommodating which we really appreciated! Only very very minor complaints were the water didn’t get hot enough to utilize the bath, (I like scalding hot baths!) and the internet was in and out a bit. Everything else was amazing! Would absolutely stay again."

"If your looking for the quintessential Amsterdam experience this is it! The house boat is close to everything while still being is a quiet residential neighborhood. Robertino is as gracious a host as you could ask for and will do what ever he can to make your stay in Amsterdam wonderful. We cannot recommend this houseboat highly enough. We loved our stay and now feel we have friends here."

"We had such a lovely and easy going stay on the Ms Luctor. We were conveniently located near Centraal Station and could get anywhere we wanted with the bikes available to us. Breakfast every morning was such a treat. The bed was extremely comfortable and we had just enough apartment-like space to be cozy while visiting Amsterdam."

"Das Hausboot ist modern gestaltet, verfügt über stabile Mückennetze. Parkplatz in 3 Gehminuten, Handwagen zum Transport ausleihbar, sehr gepflegte Anlage mit etlichen Ferienhäusern etc. Rest wie beschrieben. Etwas negativ: Nähe Einflugschneise. "

"We enjoyed it very much. Confortable but very compact. No air conditioned, it was hot in the day. Easy to rent a bike on site and go to Edam, Monnickendam and Marken. Nice walk to downtown Volendam. Good restaurants on site. A toaster would have been good. Would return.🤗"

"Was so easy and accessible/ Casper was great and extremely helpful! I would definitely stay here again."

"Wir hatten zwei tolle Tage auf dem schönen Hausboot! Es ist wirklich der reine Luxus dort. Wenn man reinkommt, ist es zwar sehr heiß, aber da man alles aufmachen kann, kühlt es auch schnell ab. Der Preis ist allerdings trotzdem sehr hoch. Der Check in ist relativ spät, das Check in Fenster zwischen 16:00 Uhr und 18:00 Uhr. Eher kurz. Dafür muss man dann um 10:00 Uhr morgens schon wieder draußen sein, das finde ich etwas knapp. Man muss auch alles ordentlich und sauber hinterlassen, es wird...

"Ein schönes und gepflegtes Hausboot mit schöner Lage. Alles im allen war es ein schöne Erfahrung auf dem Hausboot, leider muss ich eine negative Sache anmerken. Leider hat bei uns der Mülleimer sehr starke nach Aschenbecher gestunken, dieser Geruch hat sich leider Tage gehalten. Zumindest immer dann wenn man die Schublade zur Mülltonne öffnete. Das war leider sehr unangenehm. Wenn es diese Sache nicht gegeben hätte, hätte ich auch für die Sauberkeit 5 Sterne gegeben. Ein zusätzlicher...

"Loved our three nights at this property. It was conveniently located and had everything we needed!"

"The property was very nice and in a good area. A little ways for walking but bus and team available. The hosts were very gracious and gave us nice tips on local restaurants, transportation, erc. We would recommend this to anyone."

"The houseboat was immaculate and the host was super helpful. Anouk sent helpful tips via email about how to best explore the area. The bikes and optional boat were in great condition and really allowed us to have an immersive experience. The notebook that Anouk left on the table was super helpful and was better structured than many travel guides I've bought in the past. The restaurant recommendations were also spot on and overall it was the best accommodations I've ever enjoyed while travelling....

"We enjoyed the location tremendously; and, staying on the boat added a charming ambiance to our Amsterdam experience. On the other hand, it is very tattered, dated, rickety and an electrical nightmare. Extension cords and hidden switches everywhere and very dimly lit. Floors covered with throw rugs that all overlap; the walls and ceilings covered with fabric that has been stapled on. And, used toilet paper cannot be flushed down the toilet. So, if you don't mind dealing with all the oddities, go...

"Highly recommend this wonderful houseboat to everyone! The two bedroom unit is all new, beautiful furnishings and well appointed kitchen. Each bedroom has its own shower! Excellent! Caspar is a gracious and lovely host….check in is seamless….as is check out. Will return to this lovely boat and recommend it to friends…thank you!"

"We stayed one week at this location and had a wonderful time. Very nice place to get back to after a long day of walk/bike. 10/10 for us."

"A short bus ride from Amsterdam Centraal made this a conveniently located location to stay at. The hotel provides guides for the surrounding area which we should have paid more attention to as they had some very good recommendations for food that was nearby rather than us taking the bus into the city centre."

"Nice and clean hotel with very good facilities like a gym and pool table. Located within a few stops for the airport and has good access to public transport to the city centre. The hotel staff team were excellent and very responsive to any queries. "
