Houseboat description

Our location
The houseboat is located in a quiet side channel of the IJ and is moored on a quiet dike with many other houseboats. On the other side of the dike is the Wilmkebreekpolder, a unique piece of nature in the middle of Amsterdam. The free NDSM wharf ferry is a 25-minute walk away or 5 minutes by bike. This will take you directly to the central station. Public transport is a 15 minute walk and in 25 minutes you are in the heart of the city.

If you want to explore the typical Dutch landscape with the vast green fields and charming waterways, our houseboat is also a perfect choice for you. It is nice to explore the small villages in the area by bike. The Zaanse Schans, world heritage site with its iconic windmills, is also within easy reach.

Good night
Our guests appreciate our place because we are not far from the center, but are not bothered by noisy tourist crowds in our neighborhood. This ensures a wonderful night's sleep in the comfortable double bed. During your stay you will certainly enjoy the aquatic life like a 'local'.

Room
After coming back from the city you can either chill in your room or enjoy our garden. Through a sliding door in your room it is also possible to sit on our floating terrace. You can also use our pedal boat to explore the canal. In the summer months you can swim in the canal, as many locals do. Of course we offer all the luxuries you would expect from a comfortable room: underfloor heating, fast WiFi, television / radio and a private entrance.

 

Breakfast
Breakfast is included in the price and served in your DIY (Do It Yourself) style room for you to enjoy at your own time.

Free parking
Yes, it is quite exceptional in Amsterdam, but parking on our dike is free!

Neighbourhood
We have a good relationship with our neighbors and would like to keep it that way. That is why we ask you to cooperate in this. The stay in our B&B is a party, but we are not a party location. So no loud music or discussions in our garden.

We hope to have given you the best possible impression of our floating B&B, but feel free to ask questions if you still have them. We are happy to help you!

    What a lovely place

    If you want to discover Amsterdam AND enjoy some harmony and silence after the day in the city the houseboat of Roelie in the north of Amsterdam is perfect for you. You can feel the love of the owner in this houseboat - it has charme, is clean and there‘s everything you need on it. You can reach the centre of Amsterdam by foot or by bike if you use the (free) NDSM ferry. Thank you Roelie for an amazing time on your houseboat in this wonderful city!!

    Very nice stay overall

    We enjoyed the houseboat. The room was very comfortable. The food items were very nice but there were a couple cereals with no milk provided so that was a bit odd. Also, I asked about a fan as it is late June and reached nearly 90 degrees Fahrenheit yesterday. We were told there was not one available. This was not practical as it was very hot and left us very uncomfortable on more than one evening. Sitting on the deck and enjoying the sunsets were the highlight of this stay. Definitely note that this is a bit out of the way of the center of Amsterdam and will lead to some pricey Ubers. The quietness of this location is wonderful though. Renting a bike is a great idea and something we might do in the future. However, I’d likely spend more and stay on a houseboat closer to the city. Also, I highly recommend a visit to STRAAT. It was well worth the visit and within walking distance of the houseboat.

    Beautiful accommodation in a great location Show original

    The houseboat is in a nice, quiet area and the city is easy to reach. Everything else was great, so we can recommend the houseboat.

    In the countryside, by the water Show original

    We spent 4 pleasant nights in this houseboat, Roelie and Jan are very available and friendly. Coming by car, we really appreciated the parking space, and the possibility of renting bicycles on site to quickly get to the center of Amsterdam by ferry. Only regret: it was not warm enough in April to swim in the canal...
