Staying on Arie’s ship has been a unique and spectacular experience. Everything is a plus and I cannot think of one thing I would change!
Every comfort of home is thoughtfully included on the ship. The bed is extremely comfortable, bathroom, kitchen, sitting room and dining all have the amenities needed to make the stay pleasant and easy. So much more freedom, space and fun than staying in an apartment!
The ship is very spacious and well set out, situated on a canal which is busy with boats, very central to walking to every place of interest all over Amsterdam. We had a wonderful time relaxing by the wide windows upstairs enjoying the continuous parade of boats and happy people taking in the sights. While it is colourful and busy at times on the water, the area is extremely quiet and safe. We slept so well here! Arie was very kind and helpful, stocking the ship with some nice food and drinks for our evening arrival after a long flight and giving us detailed information about the ship and its amenities. His communication was excellent and he also left us some terrific suggestions for eating out as the locals do which we enjoyed very much. We cooked a couple of meals on the ship and found the kitchen to be excellent too.
It was very hard to leave after 9 wonderful days.
As this is Arie and Gerda’s home, it is set up superbly for day to day living in comfort. I feel we are very lucky that they decide to let people rent it over summer,(if it were my ship I would never want to leave!!)
If you have the chance to stay here don’t search any further, this is the best!
Thank you again Arie, we will treasure the memory of staying on your beautiful ship forever 😊
Bedankt en het liefst gewenst,
Marcelle and Jeff
