Boat holiday rentals in North Sea

Great place, great neighborhood just outside the busy city center. The space was bigger than I expected, with a super comfy berth and a large bathroom. Definitely recommended.

Nice place to stay, very atypical!

We thoroughly enjoyed a long weekend aboard Johan's houseboat, in a great location in the Jordaan! It was an experience simply not available in a hotel or B&B. We drank morning coffee and late afternoon cocktails on the deck whle soaking up the few remaining days of late summer sun. It was ideally located close to neighborhood restaurants, shops, and even weekend organic food and flea market, and a short walk to tourist attractions in the old city center. If not up for a longer walk along the canal to the museum quarter and beyond, a public transportation options were always available nearby. Communication prior to arrival and during our stay was proactive and prompt. The inside of the houseboat was even more spacious than we anticipated, and the beds were comfortable. We'll definitely opt for a stay here during our next visit to Amsterdam!

Maarten was a lovely host. The living accommodation was exactly as described and shown in the pictures and surprisingly spacious even for my giant husband. It was a short flat easy walk to the historic centre even with little legs in tow. breakfast was yummy with a special treat for my son who was very pleased that Maarten bought him a doughnut. communication was prompt and in perfect English

If you want a true taste of Amsterdam, Jaap’s place is a perfect fit. The historic accommodations right on the canal make you feel like one of the residents. Sitting on the boat and watching the other canal boats go by was a favorite pastime of our stay. Nighttime was gorgeous with the lights on the boat and the city reflecting in the water. Inside, the space was so unique and perfectly accommodated the four of us! Stores to purchase delicious baked goods and groceries were nearby as well as places to sit down and grab some local fare. We loved our stay here and already are talking about how we can come back to Japp’s amazing canal boat! We would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to share in a true taste of this very special city!

The house boat was just as it looked in the pictures! It was very spacious and comfortable for our family of 4. It was perfect how the kids sort of had their side, or wing, and my husband and I had our space in the master bedroom, on the other side. We all slept very well! We loved the cats, Skip & Bo. We are animal people, so it was fun having them come and go, and socialize and snuggle with us! The views were amazing and there were plenty of spots to just chill when we weren't out exploring. The house boat was very walkable to many fun spots and different areas. We definitely felt like we were staying in someone's home versus a rental. Enjoyed all of the personal touches in the kitchen as well! We would go back in a heartbeat and recommend Joost's place without hesitation!

Wonderful stay with my son on De Steert! Good food also in Marianne's restaurant. The boat is beautiful and cozy and equipped with all the comforts.

Absolutely incredible stay! Warm, original and exceptional. Erwin is a perfect host. In addition to being a passionate person with lots of interesting life stories, he is very welcoming, friendly and cares about the well-being of his guests. The boat trip is not to be missed, a moment of pure serenity and relaxation. Great introduction to the world of boats through Erwin's experience and knowledge. We loved being able to sail on board his sailboat. Thank you Erwin for this wonderful experience!

Magical boat near a wonderful beach and easy to get into Amsterdam!

At first we were a little reluctant because the boat is really right in front of the restaurant, like on a silver platter, but it was great. It's perfect for a few relaxing days away. Like a little camping trip on the water. The heat in the boat was bearable.

Can highly recommend staying here. So nice to return to after a busy day sightseeing in Amsterdam. Near bus stop, 10 mins walk away, takes you straight to Amsterdam Central station. Get off at bus stop before station if you do not need metro, we walked everywhere. We used credit card each for bus, swipe on and then swipe as you get off, about 7 euro return. The Johanna is just a joy to be on, comfortable and clean with stunning views. Everything that you need and more is supplied. Sandra and her partner are a joy to deal with, checking in with us to ensure all was ok.

Nice host, nice space. Bedrooms are of course small. Beds are good. No dishwasher. We didn't mind but good to know. Beautiful berth.

Helena's time was just wonderful! Helena is a very attentive, friendly host and the breakfast is excellent! The boat is cozy, very clean and offers all the comfort you could wish for. The area is fantastic, it's quiet, and you can spend a lot of time in nature and enjoy the magnificent views. In the vicinity you can rent bikes and explore the water with SUPs. We highly recommend Helena's boat and will be happy to come back! Thank you for everything!

A great boat in a beautiful setting. Well-equipped and everything you need is there. Excellent communication before and during our stay. The additional electric boat was great for all of us and a wonderful experience. The small town was simply wonderful and easily accessible by electric boat. There's a supermarket and several restaurants. It was a perfect short break.Thank you....

Great Host and great Stay. Easy Kommunikation. We did go sailing with a skipper the host kindly arranged for us, wich was a great experience.

Steven was absolutely amazing! The boat is lovely and well situated and he went absolutely above and beyond to help us out on our stay - he even brought us out on his tugboat for a test run! Could not recommend enough thank you so much for our stay 😊😊

What can I say. Never have been so satisfied with my airbnb stay, like ever. The boat itself is just THE vibe. Very budget place to stay near Amsterdam. Great public transport near the boat that allows to travel to every district. I spent there 2 nights and totally forgot about my life. Total immersion. Aniza is a great person, very straightforward and to the point. The boat "manual", the "do's and don'ts" about this majestic ship were quick and easy to remember. Totally recommend! When I'm back in Amsterdam I'm gonna hit up Aniza right away. Cheers 🥳

This is by far the best Airbnb I have ever booked or stayed at. Gerben and Albert were excellent hosts and were so kind and friendly! The houseboat looked even more extravagant than in the photos which I didn’t think was possible! I would 100% book again and cannot wait to be back in Amsterdam to stay here. Also the location was perfect, within the heart of Amsterdam with so many shops, restaurants, and bars nearby.

This was a fun place to stay. There are 2 transit stops within a 5 minute walk. It was a few minutes walk from the metro station and super easy to find. Koko was responsive and made sure to communicate before check in so it was a breeze.

We were in Bremen with a group of four women and stayed on the sailing yacht. It was just right for us, as we wanted to try something different and the location is great. The host Bastian was super friendly and gave us great recommendations. Check-in and check-out could be adjusted in time, which made our trip even better. Everything was very clean on the sailing yacht and everything was sufficient from the place. Will definitely visit again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this place! The boat was just as beautiful as in the photos – stylishly furnished, sparkling clean and with many loving details. The beds are okay for sleeping, but you can't expect the greatest comfort. The location was also great – quiet, but still everything available. Ideal for excursions or simply for relaxing. Communication with the hosts was also excellent.

Thank you for a pleasant stay on your ship. We felt very comfortable and would be happy to come back. The location of the ship is also particularly nice. In the surrounding area there are many excursions to beautiful nature reserves, and you can easily explore with boat tours.

Amazing experience and a wonderful host. Lord of special little touches that make a difference like lavender bags on the pillow ♥️ very easy to get to Amsterdam central just 4 stops on the tram, fantastic stay!

This is a perfect spot to stay in Amsterdam! It is larger than it looks in the photos, with many nice artistic decorations and advantages (you can watch a drawbridge go up and down from the deck). All the comforts of home plus a very friendly, gracious host. Convenient to the bus, tram, and a nice supermarket-- very easy to get to the attractions in the city, but you also can walk to a pretty small village and bike in the countryside. Note that this is not a good place to stay if you have mobility issues (you have to climb over other boats with your suitcase to get here) or if you really hate spiders (there are a bunch outside, a few inside. My arachnophobic husband was fine, but you will see spiderwebs.) I strongly recommend this place! I always wanted to stay on a boat and it turns out this is a common fantasy... All of your friends will be jealous.
