This place was the highlight of our European trip. Staying on the water, having coffee, lunch, beer and cocktails on the deck while watching sunrises, sunsets, wildlife, and boats go by was intensely relaxing. Kids jumped right off the boat to swim. Located within a short walk of two tram lines leading to various parts of city center made it easy to see the sites (and get from/to Amsterdam Central train station). Really nice pub a half a block away. Two grocery stores and a dozen dining options within an easy walk. Took many walks along the canals and it’s away from the tourist areas so a much more relaxed, dare I say a real experience of Amsterdam (but again and easy tram ride to get to the bustle of city center).
It is the wheelhouse of the boat, shared with the wonderful hosts. It’s a true boat experience. But we fit four people no problem, just fine. Beds were very comfortable and it was handy to have a galley for light meals, cheese and crackers, etc. There is a three/four step ladder to get from the galley to the next level (living room, 1 bedroom and bathroom) and then short stairs to get to the other bedroom below that. You also have to walk along a narrow deck way to get in. However, our family was able to easily navigate all of these and it made the experience more fun and unique. I cannot wait to go back!
