Located in one of the city's widest canals, close to the Centraal Station, the bustling city center with its many restaurants, shops, museums and parks within walking distance. You will stay in a unique, tasteful suite with all comforts and a beautiful view of the canal. Enjoy Amsterdam from the inside in an exceptional, unforgettable way! ## The space The Captains Cabin is located in the rear part of the ship. Where the skipper used to live with his family, we have created a comfortable suite with a living room, bedroom, toilet and shower/sauna. And don't forget the wheelhouse and the wide roof terrace: on top of the ship, they offer panoramic views of the canal and the nearby historic buildings. Bedding and towels are included in your stay, as well as coffee and tea to enjoy together while you can enjoy the tranquility and gently advancing boats. Be welcome! ## Guest access The ship is located at Kalkmarkt no. 16 in the historic center. Through an entrance gate and wide cadet stairs, you step on the ship to the door in the wheelhouse, which gives you access to the suite. Our houseboat has multiple private areas. You’ll be staying in the beautiful suite shown in the photos, which is your private space during the stay. Other parts of the boat are not included. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Sauna ### Internet - Available in the accommodation: WiFi ### Food and drink - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Spices - Toaster ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony ### Laundry - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 377 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/121000000/120660000/120654500/120654464/d688c8e4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxurious wellness houseboat - Sailors Suite Amsterdam City Centre - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning - Living/dining area 9.6 Exceptional 4 reviews CA $455 CA $561 total includes taxes & fees Nov 25 - Nov 26 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-25&endDate=2025-11-26&selected=120654464&PinnedHotelID=120654464&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, stereo](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/97000000/96760000/96750800/96750726/f1ecd757.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### HouseBoat next to AMSTEL in the City Centre (1br) Canal Ring - Pool - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 4 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-06&endDate=2025-12-07&selected=96750726&PinnedHotelID=96750726&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV, fireplace, stereo](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/41000000/40200000/40198700/40198700/6617ddd4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Modern yet cozy houseboat Amsterdam City Centre - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 130 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-06&endDate=2025-12-07&selected=40198700&PinnedHotelID=40198700&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![2 bedrooms, in-room safe, free WiFi, bed sheets](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/61000000/60180000/60171100/60171008/5a69083e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### unique experience in Amsterdam on the water Canal Ring - Pool - Free WiFi - Air conditioning - Outdoor space 9.6 Exceptional 55 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-06&endDate=2025-12-07&selected=60171008&PinnedHotelID=60171008&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/36000000/35850000/35845300/35845257/6fd6f3b6.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Central & Modern studio on Eco-Houseboat Excelsior!

The location was excellent and it was super fun to watch all the boat traffic buzz by. Gerben was very reachable and the boat was nicely appointed. ##### Joe D.

We loved everything about it. The host was very responsive and friendly once we arrived. The boat is stocked with the necessities and even has a sauna! It is in an excellent location to walk to shops and restaurants, to catch public transportation, or rent bikes. We loved having a drink on the deck in the evening and watching the boats go by on the canal. ##### Catherine Stayed 8 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brendan A.

They thought of everything you could want inside the house, the location is fantastic and the communication was seamless. You should definitely rent the Captains Cabin if you are even partially thinking about it. Just do it! ##### Brendan A. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ashley Q. Apr 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Total Dream Boat Do not hesitate to book your stay here! The boat is beautifully renovated, has an incredibly comfortable bed, and, most importantly, is hosted by the loveliest family you'll meet in Amsterdam. From the day I arrived, I felt graciously welcomed with a warm authenticity that is hard to come by these days. The location is incredible. So close to city center (10 minute walk from Centraal Station) and yet when you return home, it feels like a quiet oasis away from the hubbub of the city. There are lovely patio chairs to sit out and relax as you gaze across the canal. Gerben and Rodinde are ready to provide you with any recommendations or information you might need. It is truly a magical place to stay, and I can't wait to return! ##### Ashley Q. Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Val L. Apr 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Exceeded expectations in every way Where to start??? Gerben (and Rodinde) was the ultimate host, the houseboat was incredible, and the location was exceptional. We didn't know what to expect since the property was brand new to VRBO, so you can imagine our surprise and delight that EVERY detail had been thought through. From heated floors to plenty of kitchenware to a lighted mirror in the bathroom (not to mention the fancy Japanese toilet and sauna!), we felt very pampered. For my daughter and me, it was the perfect place to spend a few days and decompress after she returned from Semester at Sea. We had the best time sitting on the deck and waving to boat tours going by! We were also surprised how quiet the neighborhood was despite its proximity to the train station and the heart of the city. We are so grateful to Gerben and Rodinde for helping us create such beautiful memories and will absolutely return one day! ##### Val L. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pieter v.

De aandacht voor detail in de inrichting en service was opmerkelijk. Heerlijk centraal gelegen met alles op loopafstand. De tips van de gastheer voor lokale bezienswaardigheden waren spot-on. Dit was zonder twijfel een van de beste accommodaties waar we ooit hebben verbleven. Vijf sterren zijn eigenlijk niet genoeg!” ##### Pieter v. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025
