Boat vacation rentals in Frisia

We loved our stay here. It was central to everything we wanted to see and do, incredibly walkable, lively and comfortable. The space was exactly as it appeared in the photos, and it was a very unique way to experience Amsterdam and everything it has to offer! If we are back in the city we will certainly be booking again!

Très bon séjour passé sur le bateau de Jan! Endroit atypique pour y passer des bons moments 🤗 nous étions 9 pour et le bateau est largement spacieux pour tout le monde, tout était disponible sur place comme mentionné dans la description : bonus pour Bobby le chien trop chou Endroit idéal pour être au calme, à 20 min de voiture d’Amsterdam! Je recommande vivement ce logement ☺️

We thoroughly enjoyed a long weekend aboard Johan's houseboat, in a great location in the Jordaan! It was an experience simply not available in a hotel or B&B. We drank morning coffee and late afternoon cocktails on the deck whle soaking up the few remaining days of late summer sun. It was ideally located close to neighborhood restaurants, shops, and even weekend organic food and flea market, and a short walk to tourist attractions in the old city center. If not up for a longer walk along the canal to the museum quarter and beyond, a public transportation options were always available nearby. Communication prior to arrival and during our stay was proactive and prompt. The inside of the houseboat was even more spacious than we anticipated, and the beds were comfortable. We'll definitely opt for a stay here during our next visit to Amsterdam!

Lovely location, excellent accommodation and Egbert was a really nice fella, we really enjoyed our stay on his boat

Wir hatten eine ganze tolle Zeit und konnten unser Glück gar nicht fassen mitten im Groningen auf einem Schiff zu nächtigen. Wärmste Empfehlung!

If you want a true taste of Amsterdam, Jaap’s place is a perfect fit. The historic accommodations right on the canal make you feel like one of the residents. Sitting on the boat and watching the other canal boats go by was a favorite pastime of our stay. Nighttime was gorgeous with the lights on the boat and the city reflecting in the water. Inside, the space was so unique and perfectly accommodated the four of us! Stores to purchase delicious baked goods and groceries were nearby as well as places to sit down and grab some local fare. We loved our stay here and already are talking about how we can come back to Japp’s amazing canal boat! We would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to share in a true taste of this very special city!

The house boat was just as it looked in the pictures! It was very spacious and comfortable for our family of 4. It was perfect how the kids sort of had their side, or wing, and my husband and I had our space in the master bedroom, on the other side. We all slept very well! We loved the cats, Skip & Bo. We are animal people, so it was fun having them come and go, and socialize and snuggle with us! The views were amazing and there were plenty of spots to just chill when we weren't out exploring. The house boat was very walkable to many fun spots and different areas. We definitely felt like we were staying in someone's home versus a rental. Enjoyed all of the personal touches in the kitchen as well! We would go back in a heartbeat and recommend Joost's place without hesitation!

Heerlijk verblijf met mijn zoontje op De Steert! Goed eten ook in het restaurant van Marianne. De boot is prachtig en knus en van alle gemakken voorzien.

C'était incroyable !!! Quelle expérience et même si le temps n'était pas de la partie, nous avons adoré ce moment de joie et détente en famille. Je recommande vivement cette expérience unique.

Wij hebben met z’n 4tjes geslapen op de boot. Het weer zat niet mee. Waardoor we veel in de boot hebben gezeten. Het was gezellig en knus. Een leuke ervaring en een leuke plek!

Can highly recommend staying here. So nice to return to after a busy day sightseeing in Amsterdam. Near bus stop, 10 mins walk away, takes you straight to Amsterdam Central station. Get off at bus stop before station if you do not need metro, we walked everywhere. We used credit card each for bus, swipe on and then swipe as you get off, about 7 euro return. The Johanna is just a joy to be on, comfortable and clean with stunning views. Everything that you need and more is supplied. Sandra and her partner are a joy to deal with, checking in with us to ensure all was ok.

Fijne host mooie ruimte. Slaapkamertjes zijn natuurlijk wel klein. Bedden zijn goed. Geen vaatwasmachine. Vonden wij niet erg maar goed om te weten. Prachtige ligplaats.

Arjan reageert snel en is aardig. De boot is heerlijk vertoeven. Ik heb heerlijk geslapen. Ik heb hem feedback gegeven ergens op en dat nam hij serieus. Hele fijne plek en zou zomaar kunnen dat ik nog eens terugkom.

We had a wonderful time on Paul's boat. Paul was a great host who communicated early and was always available to answer questions. He also met us on our arrival and gave us a tour of the boat. Everything is lovingly designed, and we loved the special atmosphere and the unique charm of the old sailboat. Basic amenities for everyday life (towels, pans, kitchen seasonings, toilet paper) are provided. Of course, many things are functionally furnished, in keeping with the space—that's just how it is on a boat. I'm 1.86m tall and didn't have any major issues with space other than the upper level being slightly* shorter than me. There's several heaters and a heated blanket for cold days. There's even a bathroom on the boat which was perfectly functional. Since you can't flush paper, we made use of the bathroom facilities in the harbor for some things which was also convenient. We would definitely recommend Paul's boat for anyone looking for something out of the ordinary!

A great boat in a beautiful setting. Well-equipped and everything you need is there. Excellent communication before and during our stay. The additional electric boat was great for all of us and a wonderful experience. The small town was simply wonderful and easily accessible by electric boat. There's a supermarket and several restaurants. It was a perfect short break.Thank you....

Steven was absolutely amazing! The boat is lovely and well situated and he went absolutely above and beyond to help us out on our stay - he even brought us out on his tugboat for a test run! Could not recommend enough thank you so much for our stay 😊😊

Diese Unterkunft auf dem kleinen Boot hat schon einen besonderen Charme, gerade wenn man so wie ich bei trockenem Wetter draußen sitzen kann.

This is by far the best Airbnb I have ever booked or stayed at. Gerben and Albert were excellent hosts and were so kind and friendly! The houseboat looked even more extravagant than in the photos which I didn’t think was possible! I would 100% book again and cannot wait to be back in Amsterdam to stay here. Also the location was perfect, within the heart of Amsterdam with so many shops, restaurants, and bars nearby.

This was a fun place to stay. There are 2 transit stops within a 5 minute walk. It was a few minutes walk from the metro station and super easy to find. Koko was responsive and made sure to communicate before check in so it was a breeze.

Abbiamo trascorso qualche giorno in questo alloggio e ci siamo trovati davvero benissimo. La struttura era pulita, accogliente e dotata di tutto il necessario. La posizione è comoda, tranquilla ma vicina ai principali punti di interesse. Host gentilissimo, disponibile e sempre pronto a darci consigli utili. Un’esperienza che consigliamo assolutamente, ci torneremmo volentieri!

Die Kommunikation mit Kai war durchweg angenehm, unkompliziert und sehr freundlich. Wir waren zu dritt für drei Nächte auf der hot chilli und hatten ein wunderschönes langes Wochenende. Für ein Pärchen oder in unserem Fall für drei enge Freunde sehr weiterzuempfehlen! Harlingen ist eine sehr schöne, typisch Niederländische Stadt mit vielen Cafés, netten Lädchen und schönem Strand. Wir würden jederzeit wiederkommen.

Vielen Dank für den angenehmen Aufenthalt auf Deinem Schiff. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und kommen gerne wieder. Besonders schön ist auch die Lage des Schiffes. In der näheren Ungebung gibt es viele Ausflugsmöglichkeiten in schöne Naturschutzgeiete, und die man gut mit Bootstouren erkunden kann.

Geweldig verblijf gehad! Het schip is van alle gemakken voorzien. Ondanks dat de bedden er krap uitzien, heeft iedereen heerlijk geslapen en was het erg knus. Volgende keer hebben we hopelijk beter weer, dan kunnen we meer van het dek genieten. Dankjewel Xandra en Marco!

Perfect voor grote vriendengroepen. Iedereen vond het erg leuk om voor de verandering eens op een boot te slapen. Wat dat betreft een unieke ervaring. Jeroen was heel makkelijk in de communicatie en ook flexibel qua aankomst en vertrek. Een aanrader.
