Stepping into this houseboat was like stepping into a dream. Absolutely everything about it was perfect - the decor and ambiance, the furnishings, the spaciousness, the floor plan, the cleanliness, the amenities, the fabulous kitchen, the outside deck - everything!
Klaas met us at the door, gave us a tour with directions on the operation iof the ‘techy’ window blinds, a description of the art on the wall, and information about eveything else we could possible need to know about both the boat and the surrounding area. He returned shortly to drop off a package of Nespresso coffee pods into the mail slot because there were just a couple in the kitchen.
Actually living on the houseboat was so much fun with watching boats, as well as friendly swans and ducks go by, and just seeing the water right at the windows. Even though it was chilly, we spent some time on the deck just enjoying the experience.
The kitchen was fabulous, open to the living area and wonderful dining table, and well-stocked with pots and pans and utensils. Cleaning up was even fun!
We shall always try to book the nouseboat when in Amsterdam. The location is accessible to the rest of the city by both tram and on foot. It is a lovely safe area with good marketsnearby. We have stayed in many Vacation rentals. This is our definite favorite!
