What should we say... We just LoVeed our time on De Calidris! It is a short walk from town, so you can see the other houseboats and think "we gonna stay on one like these" ;) The family weren't there when we stayed but Sarah the sister in law welcomed us and showed us around. She even checked on us after the first night via text. So we felt extremely welcome! We weren't very lucky with the weather. But to be in a houseboat, hearing the rain on the roof and enjoying the cosy atmosphere of the boat with a glass of wine is a unique experience of Amsterdam. We just can recommend De Calidris and no doubt, we will be back at some stage ;)
