Boat vacation rentals in Monnickendam

We loved our stay here. It was central to everything we wanted to see and do, incredibly walkable, lively and comfortable. The space was exactly as it appeared in the photos, and it was a very unique way to experience Amsterdam and everything it has to offer! If we are back in the city we will certainly be booking again!

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!

Lovely location, excellent accommodation and Egbert was a really nice fella, we really enjoyed our stay on his boat

We had an amazing stay on the boat! Our group of eight friends found everything clean and well-maintained. The two showers were a big plus, and we loved the common area for hanging out. The Bluetooth speaker was a great touch too!

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!

Very nice ship in a great location in Leiden! Each cabin has a small bathroom. We really enjoyed the trip.

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.

Was a great weekend on the boat with friends! Thanks a lot Jurgen!

It was amazing!!! What an experience and even if the weather wasn't there, we loved this moment of joy and relaxation as a family. I would highly recommend this unique experience.

Very nice peaceful location

Marcel was a great host and was easy to communicate with. The Airbnb was fantastic and provided us with everything we needed.

Arjan is very responsive and kind. The boat is lovely to stay in. I had a great sleep. I gave him feedback on something and he took it seriously. Very nice place and I could just come back again.

We had a wonderful time on Paul's boat. Paul was a great host who communicated early and was always available to answer questions. He also met us on our arrival and gave us a tour of the boat. Everything is lovingly designed, and we loved the special atmosphere and the unique charm of the old sailboat. Basic amenities for everyday life (towels, pans, kitchen seasonings, toilet paper) are provided. Of course, many things are functionally furnished, in keeping with the space—that's just how it is on a boat. I'm 1.86m tall and didn't have any major issues with space other than the upper level being slightly* shorter than me. There's several heaters and a heated blanket for cold days. There's even a bathroom on the boat which was perfectly functional. Since you can't flush paper, we made use of the bathroom facilities in the harbor for some things which was also convenient. We would definitely recommend Paul's boat for anyone looking for something out of the ordinary!

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 😊😊

We had a lovely stay and intensely enjoyed the boat. Everything was provided and the boat is fantastically equipped. We did miss some (extra) blackout on the boat, because without curtains it was very quickly light in the morning. ;-)

had a great time in this boat. lovely lady

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.

We were a group of 9 friends and we were very comfortable. Very practical and authentic to the place. We recommend the experience. We had a problem with the heating at first but Renco took care of it and everything was perfect. Thank you very much for everything

We had a very pleasant stay on Hans' boat. A lovely place to enjoy and a great base to do everything.

The boat Amalia is unique and well placed for both transport and exploring the wonderful city of Amsterdam. We really enjoyed our unforgettable stay.

Had a great stay! The ship has all the comforts. Despite the fact that the beds look cramped, everyone slept wonderfully and it was very cozy. Next time we hope to have better weather, then we can enjoy the deck more. Thank you Xandra and Marco!

Everything is great! The accommodation is just great, we felt very comfortable, everything very well equipped. Location super central in the historic harbor next to the shipping museum with water taxi stand right next door. Moniek also recommended us a parking garage right around the corner for parking. Processing very nice and easy. We highly recommend this property.

Fantastic stay! The facilities were top-notch—clean, modern, and had everything we needed. The location was truly special, offering both tranquility and memorable family experiences on the lake. Our host was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout. Highly recommend!
