A very cosy private houseboat in the city centre of Amsterdam. This unique famous Dutch houseboat which is built in Friesland in the Netherlands. The boat is located in the centre of Amsterdam in the "Jordaan" which is one of the most populair areas in Amsterdam. I have many recommendations on the boat which will give you a great experience.The boat is in a private area right in the city centre. The houseboat will be for private use for the guests.

The space
In the houseboat there are 3 Queens size comfortable beds in the boat. There is a toilet on board and a little kitchen. In the marina there is harboroffice which provides big rain showers which the guest can use.It is only on 50 meter walk. There is central heating but in Summertime you wont need it! It is a real Amsterdam experience to sleep in this typical dutch houseboat from Friesland. The boat is provided with fresh sheets and towels.
