"Ein Stern ist selbst zu viel!!! Achtung - Betrug!!! Das Boot was angeboten wird gibt es zwar aber wird ausschließlich bei booking angeboten. Wir standen vor nichts in Zaandam und mussten erst da hin fahren von Expedia aus bis wir Ersatz bekommen haben. Da hatten wir bereits 25,-€ Bahngeld bezahlt, was Expedia nicht interessiert hat. Wir hatten einen Tag vorher gelesen das es an dem Standort nicht existiert und am Anreisetag sofort Expedia kontaktiert. Die Kommunikation hat gut geklappt, nur...

"What a fun time, very unique stay in a boat. Lots of room for 3 of us and the deck was so awesome to sit and have a beverage after a day of sightseeing. Han was a great host and was very helpful with our stay and getting us around. Highly recommend."

"Wonderful quiet place, just outside of Amsterdam (20min. drive to downtown). Surounded by boats and other houseboats. Very clean and cozy. Equipped with everything we needed. Instructions where easy to follow and communicate with Anne quick and very friendly. Airplanes is really the only thing you can hear every once in a while, due to the proximity to the airport. It was perfect for us, since we headed out the next day. Took us 10 min. to the airport. We enjoyed our quick stay very much."

"The boat is very basic but is in a great location not far from the centre of old Amsterdam. (Ignore Diemen as the location). It’s very cheap for Amsterdam which makes up for its basic amenities. You can make use of facilities in nearby cafes and the Public library. The surrounding area is just off the tourist route so you get to see how locals live. Cees was a great host, very accessible and happy to help out and give advice."

"I was really excited to see what it would be like on a canal boat. One of the first things that happened was a pair of swans floated by. Pretty cool. The location of the boat was in the middle of everything. A great jumping off point to tour the center of Amsterdam. I enjoyed my accommodation and exploring the city. "

"Wonderful experience. Martyn was very hospitable. The location is quiet and across from the zoo. Waking up to elephants and zebras was incredible. We enjoyed a nice hit tea on top of the boat in the mornings while we watched boaters and swimmers come by. We truly enjoyed this property and it’s fully stocked kitchen supplies. "

"This houseboat is not fancy - but it is as comfortable as being at a friend's cabin - we didn't want to leave. We had not stayed in Amsterdam before, so wanted our first few nights to be something unique. The boat was perfect! It was close walking to everything, yet it was quiet and relaxing once inside. Watching the crowded tourist boats traverse the river was a fun diversion. Our friends staying in a hotel were jealous of the roominess experienced on the boat. While we didn't cook, the kitchen...

"We had a truly wonderful stay on Robertino and Carl's boat. The property is stunning, beautifully situated and equipped with every amenity you could think of. We enjoyed cooking in their well stocked kitchen, spent our evenings on deck watching the defilé of boats pass by and slept deeply on the very comfortable beds. Even though the boat is located on a busy canal, it is very peaceful and private. Thank you for making this such a memorable stay."

"Casper is a helpful host/owner. He had a great list of recommendations and showed us around the property when we arrived. The studio was nice and a great location to the train station. With a Vrbo, I expect to rent the whole place, just be aware that you’ll have a neighbor that you share a front door with and that the owner has an adjoining door they stays locked. I never felt unsafe but didn’t feel like this was spelled out on the description. The original listing mentioned a hot tub twice,...

"Vi blev taget godt imod af udlejer, som tilbød at være klar med hjælp uanset hvornår. Fin husbåd med de faciliteter man kan forvente, blandt andet terresse hvor livet på kanalen kunne følges - det var ikke kedeligt. Båden ligger i et gammelt industriområde, men i gåafstand ligger indkøbsmuligheder, restaurant og et torv med forskellige muligheder. Transporten fra tovet - som lå i 10 minutters gang fra husbåden - var nem med sporvogn 2. Det tog 30-40 minutter at komme til centralstationen i...

"If you are going to stay in Amsterdam, do not hesitate to book this boat. Great time, great views. Owners are super friendly and do the most to make sure the you have a great stay, provide help and answer any questions you might have. This location is great, short walk or bus ride to central station on bus 43 was very convenient. Made our experience in Amsterdam an exceptional time!"
