Convenient and cool houseboat
Our two adults and two kids (3 and 7) had a great time in a week on this houseboat. There was plenty of space — the kids took the “lower” bedroom and the adults took the one adjacent to the dining and kitchen area. The inside was cozy and comfortable whatever the weather (highly variable from sun to hailstorms!) and we enjoyed hanging out on the deck when the weather allowed. The owner, Hans, was always available and was helpful throughout the stay, from meeting us at check-in to when we needed ice after our younger daughter bumped her face. We didn’t use the bikes much because we rented ones with child seats, but I did ride one to the store after we returned our rentals and it was ten times better! A great asset to have on hand. Would gladly stay here again!

A Remarkable Experience!
My husband and I were traveling with another couple to Amsterdam and were looking for a unique lodging experience. This was the perfect place for the four of us. The boat was warm, comfortable and had everything we needed. Han met us at arrival and showed us around. He left us with fresh cut flowers and beverages and was available if we needed him. The location is so close to everything but very quiet. We can't imagine staying anywhere else when we go back. Thank you Han - hope to see you again soon!

We enjoyed our stay!
We enjoyed Han‘s place very much. It was very convenient to Amsterdam within walking distance of many things. The bed was very comfortable. If I was to suggest any changes, it would be to get a microwave. We could have used it once or twice. Thank you very much!

Fab houseboat!
Thoroughly enjoyed our wee stay on Bamboo Boat. The location is super central so just perfect for us. The boat is more roomy than the photos make it appear. Was clean and comfy and a fun place to stay. It would be tricky if you have limited mobility. You can’t cook on the boat, not a bother for us as we were out and about the entire time. Otherwise the kitchen is well kitted out with 2 fridges, wee dishwasher, coffee machine, toaster. Great to have the bikes too. Han was super responsive and helpful before and during our visit. Thanks Han :)

Unique and Enjoyable Experience!
Han is a wonderful host and his house boat was great! Our kids enjoyed their sleeping nook, and we also slept well. It was nice having our own space and it felt calm and peaceful on the boat even though we were only a short walk from the hustle and bustle of the city. The boat has everything you need; I just had to learn to navigate in the small boat bathrooms.

Stay in August 2023
My family of four enjoyed our stay immensely. We were delayed by lost luggage and Han waited for us to make sure we got situated. The boat was great fun, well equipped and exactly as described. The location is very convenient, and the views from the boat are amazing. Highly recommend to anyone staying in Amsterdam!

Amazing view and location!
We stayed on the houseboat for three nights and greatly enjoyed our stay! The boat accommodated four of us easily, beds were comfortable, and it was a luxury to have two bathrooms. Han was a superb host who met us on site when we arrived to show us around, stocked the boat with coffee and drinks, provided four bikes free of charge, and put out fresh cut flowers. The location was amazing just minutes from the train station, restaurants, and museums yet in a quiet location with a peaceful view of the waterfront. There was even a friendly neighborhood cat who came by to visit. We definitely recommend this boat if you are planning a trip to Amsterdam!
