About this stay

This spacious houseboat on the Prinsengracht is ideal for a family of four with one or two children, offering a unique Amsterdam stay that combines canal living with historic charm. The 110 m² interior includes a master bedroom, a smaller bedroom, and two bathrooms, while the expansive 80 m² deck provides a private outdoor retreat with a fire pit and waterfront views. The boat’s 1920s French passenger-ship origins are reflected in the decor, creating a cozy, nostalgic atmosphere that’s perfect for relaxing after exploring the city. Note that this rental is designed for families, not groups of adults, ensuring a quiet, child-friendly environment. With air conditioning, room-darkening shades, and a washer, it offers practical comforts for longer stays, and the host’s warm welcome and luggage dropoff option make arrival seamless. For trip planning, consider using the deck for morning coffee or evening stargazing, and take advantage of the central location to walk to nearby attractions like the Anne Frank Museum and Leidseplein within 10 minutes.

The space
Truly an extraordinary houseboat, moored on the historic Prinsengracht canal, in the center of Amsterdam. Originally a French passenger ship, built in 1922, the houseboat has ample living space (110 m2) and a spacious deck (80 m2). I have decorated the ship to resonate the time of her origin (the 20s), with lots of mahogany, etc.
Upstairs is the romantic (former) wheelhouse. Downstairs you’ll find a large living area, open kitchen, 1 master bedroom (queen bed, 160 cm wide), a smaller bedroom and 2 bathrooms. The bigger bathroom (adjacent the master bedroom) has a bath, separate shower, sink and toilet. The smaller bathroom (adjacent the smaller bedroom) has a shower, sink and toilet. The s

Neighbourhood
