It was our first time staying at a houseboat and the experience was nothing short of amazing! The bed was super comfortable and you get lulled to sleep at night by the gentle rocking minute waves. Eltjo was a good host and he and his wife provided a nice folder with places and restaurants that are good. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone. It's close to Amsterdam central and close to lots of places. Would love to stay here again the next time I visit.
