Anahata is the perfect city oasis and would recommend it to anyone travelling to Amsterdam. Bauke and Annemiek were amazing hosts, leaving us a welcome pack of food and treats, which was a lovely touch, and plenty of tips of local places to visit, eat and drink. Public transport conveniently takes you to the centre and beyond-the house is serviced by bus and tram within 5-7 minutes walk. The houseboat is a fantastic space, with a lovely, big private and quiet garden, and inside is lovely and spacious with plenty of room to sit and relax. There are lovely big sliding doors on both levels that open up directly onto the canal with outside decking to enjoy the cool and calm waterside-the payoff for staying somewhere a little bit further from the centre. Perfect for a family or 2 couples travelling together. All in all, one of the best places we have stayed in Amsterdam! Book Bauke’s and Annemiek’s place - you won’t regret it! It’s amazing 😊
