Houseboat vacation rentals in Frisia

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!

We were thrilled with the place, Lots of amenities for kitchen, hygiene and pastime! (books, DVDs, etc.) Very cozy furniture and cozy atmosphere as described. If you have any questions, Raoul responds quickly!

We had a lovely time on Peter's houseboat. The location is great. Only a 15 minute walk to the station and the center yet incredibly peaceful. Everything we needed was available and we enjoyed the first rays of the spring sun on the dock in front of the houseboat. The daily visit from a group of geese was quite the highlight for our little boy. Peter welcomed us when we first arrived and was very accommodating and responsive to our questions. We explored the corners of Utrecht and beyond with the bike and can only recommend this lovely city. So many beautiful historic buildings, lovely canals and quaint little cafes and shops. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to others.

I cannot recommend this boat enough. I wish I was back there right now! What a lovely surprise that it's even better than the photos. Extremely clean, excellent finish, very unique and an overall beautiful space. Location is lovely, a short walk to everything and easy tram access if you don't feel like walking. Leaving the best till last... Sietske is a wonderful and kind host. She couldn't do enough for us and made us feel extremely welcome. Thank you so much for helping make a big birthday even more special!!

Lovely home Perfect neighborhood to stay if touring Amsterdam Host extremely responsive to any of our needs

Wow. Pictures do not do this property justice. What a wonderful place to spend a few days!!

Hanco’s house boat was just perfect for our stay. The location was perfect and we could easily walk to everything that we wanted to see, and there was a fantastic supermarket (Ekoplaza) and cafe deli (Stach) a 5 min walk away. We also enjoyed watching the coots and their chicks in a nest right outside the window! Hanco was incredibly helpful and responsive, and kindly put a travel cot up for our arrival.

Great space, great host! Hadewych was so responsive and helpful. I just loved the charm of the boat, it was a really neat experience! The bed was SO comfortable, I slept wonderfully. I do wish the couch was more comfortable though, was not conducive to getting comfy after a long day out exploring. It is an older boat so smells a bit musty and a few cobwebs in the chandelier, but you are able to open the windows and get the fresh air in which is very nice. Kitchen was well equipped, just didn't have a freezer which I wanted to store ice and ice cream etc. Had a problem with the pump but Hadewych was quick to remedy the situation. The location was superb - there was a fantastic grocery right around the corner (the produce is delicious!!), a lot of restaurants, cafes, etc. Overall a really great experience that I will cherish!

We had a great stay at Michael’s place, it was a beautiful house boat in a very peaceful quiet location. It was a good distance to walk to the free boat that runs to Amsterdam central. There was a free bottle of Prosecco in the apartment and Michael even bought us a second and some chocolate for a miscommunication on the first night. The bed was comfy and everything was spotlessly clean. We would definitely stay here again.

Absolutely awesome houseboat. Super-beautifully decorated - very modern - equipped with everything you need. It was sparkling clean and cozy. We felt completely comfortable and enjoyed life on the houseboat very much (a great experience). The boat includes a SUP, which we tried despite the season. In and around the boat is very quiet and yet you are almost in the middle of it - it is only a few meters to the actual place. Really great: the supermarket is right across the street. Anita and Diedert are great and very attentive hosts, whom we did not meet in person, but the communication with them went very well. We would love to come again.

Thank you for the beautiful accommodation! We were able to relax and unwind wonderfully. Exactly what we wanted. In the morning and in the evening it was especially nice to hear the toads in the Wangermeer. The houseboat is equipped with screens around the windows, so spiders have stayed outside the house boat. However, those who are afraid of spiders should know that the spiders are outside on the houseboat. Which is quite normal, in nature. However, the small fluttering sparrows regularly take them away :-) The sunrise over the sea was a treat every morning. We'd love to vacation here again. Best regards, Ulrike, Juliane and Jesse

We really enjoyed it. Surroundings are quiet and fantastically beautiful. The little house is something special. It was well equipped. We felt comfortable.

We had a lovely extended weekend on the houseboat! The location was fantastic – quiet, right on the water, with beautiful views. The boat was very clean, well equipped and cozily furnished, with everything you need. We especially liked the small terrace, perfect for breakfast or the evening. An absolute recommendation for those who want to experience something different and relax! I'm sure we'll be back.

A really great and clean hostel. Perfect for getting away from it all and unwinding. Thanks Klaas!

We had a wonderful stay on the houseboat! The furnishings and amenities were very tasteful and thoughtful. Everything was super clean and well maintained, which immediately gave us a good feeling. The early check-in was possible without any problems – a great extra! The lakeside location is nice and quiet, but the water was very weedy at the time of our stay, which made it a little less inviting for swimming. But there were two SUPs and a canoe for free use.

Everything worked smoothly from booking to departure. The place was very clean and well maintained. Communication with Frauke and Patrick was very straightforward, friendly and helpful. A great opportunity was to rent the motorboat directly on the houseboat – a great way to explore the surroundings from the water. We will be happy to come back! ChatGPT can make mistakes. Check important

For me, it was my first time on Airbnb. There were four of us traveling in Groningen. Everything went great, the communication was very nice and warm, the accommodation exceeded our expectations. We would come back any time and can only express our recommendation. Thank you!

It was a perfect stay in a great walkable location. Highly recommend

Reinoud's place is a nice retreat to relax for a weekend! Very nice surroundings, idyllic marina in front of the house, absolutely sufficient equipment (great that not only a few counted pieces of dishes were available), Wi-Fi stable, beds comfortable. We had a really good time!

We had a great time staying at the houseboat. It‘s a fun experience to be right on the water, and centrally located to many of the city’s destinations!

We felt very comfortable for the long weekend. If there were any problems, you got answers right away. We would choose this place again at any time 😊👍 Thank you for the time out, peace and relaxation 😊

It’s no surprise that this is booked solid. I’m not sure how we found two nights available but I’m so glad!!! I would live here! Spacious, comfortable, charming. Love the neighborhood!! Don’t wait to grab the availability if it’s there. You will not regret it.

Highly recommend the place if you are looking for privacy and quiet Nice two bedroom

We had a lovely stay! it was perfect for reading a book, do some cooking, catch up on sleep and enjoy the nature and the rocking of the boat. We did a nice 6km run as well. There are 4 boats next to each other docked to a camping van area. The King Fisher is the most outside one. There were no campervans at that time. There is a nice sauna which you can rent tho! The only thing that was a tiny tiny tiny bit disappointing, was the fact that the bedroom is not overlooking the water view but the neighbouring boat. Supermarket is a 10 minute drive by car. We didn't find restaurants on walking distance except for the campside/harbour next to it. A bike would be handy if you stay longer then 2 days. The free parking availability on the premises is definitely a plus as well. Nice place to regain back your energy!
