Our lovely houseboat is only 22 minutes from Amsterdam Center! Go by car, by train and bike or by direct bus (that stops around the corner)! The world famous windmills are 5 min by (free!) bike or go there with our motorboat in 20 minutes!

And across the road is my favorite restaurant! Free bikes (also for kids), motorboat costs only 25 euros for your stay. The houseboat Very close to Amsterdam Center you can enjoy living on the water in beautiful surroundings! Enjoy the fantastic views over the water from every room, feed ducks and swans from the living room windows and relax on the sunny water terrace or in the sunny garden! The location is great, very close to Amsterdam and the world famous Zaanse Schans windmills and across the road is the beautiful Dutch countryside. The ideal base to explore the area and afterwards come back to relax in our sunny garden or on the water terrace! Take the free bikes to explore the area and take our motorboat to visit the windmills from the water and go into the beautiful nature area (1 minute), which is a typical Dutch wetland / polder area! (The motorboat costs 25 euros for your whole stay!) About the houseboat The houseboat has a sunny living room with beautiful views over the water and into the garden through the big sliding doors. All the rooms have central heating. There are 2 bright bedrooms with large windows both overlooking the canal and the garden. The master bedroom has a king size bed, the second bedroom has 2 single beds which can be made into a double bed on request. There is a fully equipped kitchen with a coffee bean machine for freshly ground coffee and a new bathroom with shower and toilet.
