Houseboat holiday rentals in Westeinderplassen

A wonderful, unique home with loads of charm and class. Ruud was kind and friendly, and the space quickly felt like home for a few days.

Our whole family absolutely loved the house! The scenery all around is just very beautiful.The house itself is also perfect, very spacious, bright and clean, especially the host has a good taste.Charming little nooks all over the place.We can't wait to have another chance to be here!

This houseboat is wonderful and the perfect chilled get away just outside the city centre. Hosts were great with communication and the houseboat was better than we could’ve imagined. Great location with every type of public transport right on your doorstep or if the weather permits a nice walk back into town. 100% would recommend!

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

I thoroughly recommend a stay at this beautiful houseboat which has everything you need for a weekend city break to Amsterdam. Firstly there is car parking and access to the accommodation was straight forward with clear instructions. The houseboat itself is spacious and has everything you need to cook and self cater if you want to, dishwasher is a bonus. Local small supermarket only 5 minute walk away. The location of this houseboat is extremely good, 10 minute flat walk to the train station which takes you straight in Amsterdam central. Lots of trains per hour and we had no issues getting around. There are also bikes on site for your use which is a bonus, we cycled to the Windmills which were very pretty and definitely worth a visit. There is also a boat, we didn’t use it on this visit as we ran out of time. Anouk is a brilliant host, great communication and also left a comprehensive folder with tips of local places to eat and things to do. We will definitely be back!

Great stay at Marie Louise's! A beautiful person and an incredibly cute house on the water with everything you need next to Amsterdam accessible in 15 minutes by car (we opted for a RAI europaplein car park and we took the metro to the center of Amsterdam) unfortunately the P+R were very often inaccessible so we had to pay 35€the day of parking + the metro trips but we were waiting.. I hope to be back someday!

Great view of the water, bed was different but very comfy. Host went out of her way to add welcome sign so that was amazing. We would definitely recommend this place and would book again!

Beautiful houseboat in a great location and easy access to all of Amsterdam. The houseboat was warm and cosy and perfect for our short stay. Hanco is a great host

Very nice location, clean, parking available, family 2 adults, 2 kids. Thank you!

Very peaceful accommodation, the only noises you will hear will be those of ducks and geese. Listing is as described. Everything you need for a pleasant stay. Carla is very responsive. She greeted us when we arrived and had planned small treats for us, which we found very friendly. We would highly recommend and will definitely make a new stopover when we return to the country!

Had a great time at the boat house, I great experience and Pepper the cat was also really cute!

If you are looking to stay on the river in a quiet neighbourhood - on a house boat - it doesn't get better than this. I loved waking up, peering out onto the water. Each morning the rowers are out, people running along the riverbank - it's incredibly peaceful yet full of life. This is a real boat, not a floating house so you have to navigate different levels inside, getting on and off the boat etc. All part of the charm. Martin is a fabulous host. Note: this is the old school airbnb of old - its Martin's home, beautifully appointed, spacious and generously kitted out - with the comfort of a 'lived in' feel. The upper deck is just delightful, full of light and windows and you can sit with your coffee and watch the river-world go by. The area is surrounded by park, but just nearby is a lovely high-street with shops, supermarkets, bars, restaurants and deli's. Trams will take directly into the centre of Amsterdam - everything you need - highly recommended!

Our stay at Claire’s place was nothing short of magical. The location is hard to beat in the heart of Jordaan, steps away from great Dutch cafes, every restaurant we ate at was within a ten minute walk, every one was fantastic. As well as minutes walk from transit. Somehow though being in the middle of everything, being on the water in this houseboat makes you feel like you’re in your own private oasis. Claire has great taste, her home is designed impeccably, with one of the major highlights being the record player, listening to classics like the Beatles, Bowie, The Doors while sitting on the back porch taking in the incredible view of the canal. Bonus was the most efficient washer dryer I used during my 3 week stay in Europe and the large dishwasher. Had we stayed longer, we would have cooked, there was a fully stocked Chefs kitchen. Thanks for the perfect end to our adventure!

We had a wonderful stay! The property was pristine clean and felt like a true home away from home. Mandy was incredibly responsive and proactive with any questions we had—communication was smooth and reassuring from start to finish. The location was exactly as described, perfectly situated and convenient for everything we needed. Our kids had a blast, and the jacuzzi and sauna were the cherry on top—such a relaxing bonus after long days out. We’d definitely come back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for comfort, cleanliness, and a welcoming vibe.

Amazing place. Great location. Memorable view. Elizabeth is a great host who made us feel welcomed and at home. She provided all instructions clearly and was very friendly. The place tempted us to stay longer indoors as you have the canal right by the window and a decking to enjoy the sunshine outside. Definitely recommend this place and the host

It was incredibly beautiful there! To unwind for a few days, simply perfect. Always happy to come back :)

Great area, very close to the Airport and 20 mins from Amsterdam. Great place for a retreat, the boat house experience was amazing and the hospitality was great. Highly recommended.

This boat was such a treat, beautifully presented, spacious, gorgeous views amongst other boats, easy walking around central Amsterdam. The facilities within the boat were top notch, stylish upstairs living space, extremely comfortable beds, lovely bathroom (with the bonus of an upstairs toilet too). If we were there in warmer weather we would have spent more time just hanging out on the deck. Heartily recommend.

we had a great time ... only regret is not to have stayed longer

We had a fantastic stay on this charming houseboat! Everything was exactly as described and pictured—clean, cozy, and very comfortable. The surroundings were absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and perfect for relaxing. The host provided clear and detailed instructions for parking and finding the boat, which made our arrival super easy. One of the highlights for our kids was feeding the ducks right from the deck—they loved it! A truly unique and memorable experience. Highly recommended!

Annemiek and her husband were great hosts, very flexible and welcoming. Being able to use the boat and stroll the canals, especially to Leiden was a truly unique experience. Annemiek's place is ideal for an exotic and original stay in Holland, with lots of activities nearby, including tulip fields.

A wonderful host and a Great stay!

Francisco’s houseboat was outstanding. We loved everything about it - it’s spacious, tasteful and comfortable with all the facilities we needed for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed having a glass of rosé and bbq on the deck as the sun went down - heaven. And Aalsmeer is a stunning location - don’t me miss the Garden Museum and cafe for a lovely lunch. Sad to leave

Very unique and memorable experience. We had a lovely time with our two children and little dog, found everything we needed. Restaurants, shops, and nice walking routes were all within short distance by foot. There was even a swimming beach for dogs! 😊
