Book. This. Right. Now.
Daan and Nathalie’s houseboat was the perfect space and location for truly enjoying the city. Comfortable as a refuge from a day spent walking. The beds and bedrooms are outstanding and the living room is a great space for spending time together. The shower is spacious enough with great water pressure. As a reference, we were a family of four including two teenage boys and we all had adequate privacy. I should also mention that we are a definitely plus-size and Daan’s boat was comfortable in all regards.
Sitting on the deck managed to be somehow both engaging and relaxing. The foot, bicycle, and boat traffic set against the stunning backdrop of the neighborhood allowed us to breathe in this beautiful city.
Daan met us, showed us everything on the boat, made us laugh a bit, and didn’t leave until he made sure we were comfortable. He was accessible the entire time as he only lives two boats down.
Amsterdam is of course an expensive city, so the value of this houseboat can’t be overstated. Again, do yourself a huge favor and book this place now. Best experience I’ve ever had on AirBnB and I’ve had many great ones.
