Everything was perfect from disembarking from the taxi upon arrival at the Bed Breakfast Boat, to boarding the taxi for the ride to the airport! I had planned to spend a few days with my children who are currently in the Netherlands and celebrate King's Day which fell on the dates of our trip. We arrived earlier than the scheduled check-in time at Bed Breakfast Boat, the gate was closed, but at the entrance there was a note waiting for me: “Dear Katerina, if you cannot contact me, just ring the doorbell” and this was very nice because at that time I was having problems with mobile communication and the Internet. We were met by Rene, who was just finishing preparing the house for our vacation. We looked around the house, dropped our things off and went for a walk in Amsterdam, where, of course, we stayed until the evening, and when we returned, climate control was waiting for us in the house (which was very convenient because it got cold in the evening) and a multi-storey composition of containers with food in the refrigerator, including drinks, milk, etc. Since we needed an extra bed, we asked Rene and he transformed the corner sofa in the living room into a luxurious bed with fresh linen. In the morning, a chest with breakfast was waiting for us by the door... The days flew by in the bustle of the holidays and our beautiful house, but the trip was ending and it was time to pack. Considering the fact that I am from Ukraine and our mobile operator does not always have the ability to provide high-quality Internet, we asked Rene to print out my boarding pass and the ticket was waiting for me at the door. René gave us small souvenirs when we left, which will always remind us of this amazing place, and René himself will forever be in our hearts! We want to return to this place, immerse ourselves in this atmosphere and meet such wonderful people as René along the way!

Lovely accommodation with a super host. A houseboat was a welcome change to a hotel and staying on the water had a calming feel to it. Rene was very helpful and the breakfasts he dropped off each morning was great. Would highly recommend staying here. The house boat is in a good location within easy walk of multiple tram stops and bicycle lanes.

Rene was a super host, answered my many questions and helped us navigate the public transport with ease. The breakfast basket every morning was lovley and delicious with fresh goods. There is a lot of DVDs to choose from which was nice for the evenings. The option to rent bikes was a nice touch too. Location was good, a short walk to the shops and a bus stop close by to get to the centre of Amsterdam. The house boat didn't feel like a boat at all, no rocking so no chance of sea sickness! Overall a great stay, would definitely come again!

Personally I sleep with 2 pillows, so the option of another in the wardrobe if someone wished for more than one would be a nice addition. There was a small bit of mould in the bathroom. The air-conditioning unit didn't work. We pulled the sofa bed out one evening for a movie night and it had a handful of hair on it. A blanket would also have been a nice addition too for getting comfy in the sofa / sofa bed.

Location from Amsterdam Central. 10 euro uber, don’t take the taxis. On the water, obviously!! Perfect for couples. Rene the host and provider of an amazing breakfast basket by your door every morning. Highly recommend

Not a thing

Super warm and cosy, loved the under floor heating after a busy day in the rain and cold weather! The boat was Clean and had everything we needed for a 4 night stay. Breakfast was lovely and an excellent start to the day. René was a great host. Super helpful. Would love to stay again!

This is a unique experience, with a quiet location and nice scenery from the boat. Bike rental from the property is cheap and very convenient. Rene is an obliging host.

A peaceful house boat 10 minutes by tram from the center. Romantic atmosphere, like you are leaving in another era... Breakfast at your door… Apartment with everything you need.

Brilliant studio apartment setup. So trawiul and comes with everything you need plus the bonus of Rene, the kindest host that delivers your breakfast!

Very comfortable and easy to access. Great area of the city away from the main tourist centers. I really appreciate the touch of the breakfast box each morning.

Comfortable house boat located on the East side of the city only a couple of minutes walk to the tram and bus. The breakfast is generous and delivered fresh to the door each day. It was a lovely change from the usual Air B&B / hotel room. Rene was a very friendly and helpful host.
