Houseboat vacation rentals in IJsselmeer

Wir haben uns wie immer sehr wohlgefühlt und die Tage auf dem Hausboot sehr genossen!

We had a lovely time on Peter's houseboat. The location is great. Only a 15 minute walk to the station and the center yet incredibly peaceful. Everything we needed was available and we enjoyed the first rays of the spring sun on the dock in front of the houseboat. The daily visit from a group of geese was quite the highlight for our little boy. Peter welcomed us when we first arrived and was very accommodating and responsive to our questions. We explored the corners of Utrecht and beyond with the bike and can only recommend this lovely city. So many beautiful historic buildings, lovely canals and quaint little cafes and shops. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to others.

I cannot recommend this boat enough. I wish I was back there right now! What a lovely surprise that it's even better than the photos. Extremely clean, excellent finish, very unique and an overall beautiful space. Location is lovely, a short walk to everything and easy tram access if you don't feel like walking. Leaving the best till last... Sietske is a wonderful and kind host. She couldn't do enough for us and made us feel extremely welcome. Thank you so much for helping make a big birthday even more special!!

We had a wonderful time at Anouk's houseboat. I was debating before booking if I should rather stay in the city but it was totally worth a train ride from Amsterdam Centraal to be in the nature. The grocery store is 3 minute bike ride so we could easily get things to cook and fix up a pasta dinner with a bottle of wine when we were tired of eating out and rather just wanted to relax watching the ducks and water lilies on the canal. The access was so private we didn't hear any traffic or other people. After all day walking around in Amsterdam full of tourists it was a nice way to close the day. My teenage kids really loved pausing and taking photos on the boat with beautiful water background to brag about to their friends later. One surprise was Zaanse Schans was so close. We rode bikes there and it was super easy. Beautiful brick streets and watching a boat goes under a drawbridge made it even more enjoyable.

Wir waren zu fünft für ein verlängertes Wochenende vor Ort und haben uns direkt wohl gefühlt. Alles war wie beschrieben und auf den Bildern erkennbar. Marie ist sehr gastfreundlich. Ihr Hausboot bietet ein perfekten Ort zum entspannen und wohlfühlen. Rund um ein gelungenes Wochenende. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

evdeki herkes huzur, keyif, mutluluk ve sohbet dolu bir tatil geçirdiler. Çok param olsa o evi isterdim Amsterdam'da. Bir daha umarım geldiğimizde yine Hanco'nun evinde kalabiliriz. Sevgiler.

A beautiful and serene place on the river, minutes walk from Arnhem city center. Marco kindly welcomed me to his houseboat – such a unique and comfortable place to stay! Spotlessly clean, cosy, comfy bed/bedding, quiet and peaceful, a slice of nature so close to the center but away from the noise. Nice walks along the river. A good night’s sleep. This is a gem of a place hosted by good people. Highly recommended.

The Musard is a magical houseboat in one of the most lovely locations in all of Amsterdam. And while we LOVE wandering Amsterdam, we were constantly tempted to stay on board and just hang out on the top deck. Inside, the Musard is *super cool*, but you need to remember that it really is a boat and that brings about certain elements that you need to be aware of. 1) You need to be able to get up and down boat-type stairs. Just face the stairs on the way down - like on a boat - and you'll be fine. 2) I'm 5'4" and I still had to worry about my head in a few places. It's not a problem at all, but if you are super tall you'll need to be a bit more careful 3) You'll need to be gentle on the plumbing. Again, not a problem if you are a bit careful. The host was awesome and responsive. This is one of the best Airbnbs we've ever stayed at and we would highly recommend it. The immediate surroundings are beautiful and PACKED with amazing restaurants. You can book this and be certain you'll love it!

Fantastic place. So many cosy cubby holes and straight onto a floating pontoon with swans and ducks floating by. Easy walk to the free(!) ferry across the river to the centre of Amsterdam.

Absolut geniales Hausboot. Super-schön eingerichtet - sehr modern - mit allem ausgestattet was man benötigt. Es war blitzsauber und gemütlich. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und das Leben auf dem Hausboot sehr genossen (eine tolle Erfahrung). Zum Boot gehört ein SUP, das wir trotz der Jahreszeit ausprobiert haben. Im und um das Boot ist sehr ruhig und trotzdem ist man fast mittendrin - es sind nur wenige Meter in den eigentlichen Ort. Richtig klasse: der Supermarkt liegt direkt gegenüber. Anita und Diedert sind tolle und sehr aufmerksame Gastgeber, die wir zwar nicht persönlich kennengelernt haben aber die Kommunikation mit ihnen lief hervorragend. Wir würden gerne mal wiederkommen.

We were so lucky to be able to stay in such a beautiful place! The beds were comfy, the surroundings were peaceful and beautiful... it was a lovely escape from the busy, city-center. We LOVED the use of the kitchen and the deck just off the kitchen. Hein was so good to have bikes available for us. There is little available directly near the home but a 10 minute bike ride along the lovely road and over the bridge gets you to all you could want. We were sad to leave our Amsterdam home and will hope Hein's home is available when we return.

Wir hatten ein wunderbares Wochenende bei Justin. Wir haben uns sofort wohl gefühlt und alles war sehr sauber. Von der Unterkunft aus kann man gut Ausflüge nach Leiden, Den Haag oder ans Meer machen. Die Unterkunft liegt sehr privat und ruhig. Justin hat immer schnell auf unsere Nachrichten geantwortet und war flexibel bei Check-In und Check-Out Zeiten. Ich werde die Unterkunft weiter empfehlen! 😊

Die Unterkunft war sehr sauber und mit allem ausgestattet was man benötigt. Man braucht so gut wie gar nichts mitbringen . Es ist alles vorhanden. Der Check In war völlig problemlos , denn Patrick der Verwalter war gut erreichbar, sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir haben unsere Zeit sehr genossen und würden auch nochmals wiederkommen. Ein kleiner Tipp an alle Angler. Angelruten mitnehmen ! Von 10 🌟 vergeben wir 11 . Danke für die schöne Zeit

Fern’s houseboat was AMAZING! Hands down my favorite Airbnb ever. Interior was beautiful and well kept. Location was close to so many shops, restaurants and the tram. Fern was very helpful and always responsive. Pepper was easily my favorite part of the stay though 😊 🐈‍⬛ ❤️

Es war wieder einmal einfach herrlich bei euch auf dem Hausboot. Wir waren nicht zum ersten Mal da und bestimmt auch nicht zum letzten Mal. Einfach rundum zu empfehlen und wunderschön.

Our stay at Claire’s place was nothing short of magical. The location is hard to beat in the heart of Jordaan, steps away from great Dutch cafes, every restaurant we ate at was within a ten minute walk, every one was fantastic. As well as minutes walk from transit. Somehow though being in the middle of everything, being on the water in this houseboat makes you feel like you’re in your own private oasis. Claire has great taste, her home is designed impeccably, with one of the major highlights being the record player, listening to classics like the Beatles, Bowie, The Doors while sitting on the back porch taking in the incredible view of the canal. Bonus was the most efficient washer dryer I used during my 3 week stay in Europe and the large dishwasher. Had we stayed longer, we would have cooked, there was a fully stocked Chefs kitchen. Thanks for the perfect end to our adventure!

Just what we needed in between flights

Nikki and Huub are terrific hosts with a beautiful home. Highly recommend!

We had a great time staying at the houseboat. It‘s a fun experience to be right on the water, and centrally located to many of the city’s destinations!

Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt auf dem Hausboot von Erica. Die Lage ist einfach traumhaft. Bei einer Tasse Kaffee oder einem Glas Wein und dann dieser Blick von der Terrasse- einfach nur wunderschön! Wir konnten richtig entspannen und vom Alltag abschalten. Das Hausboot ist sehr liebevoll mit vielen kleinen Details eingerichtet. Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt. Der Wellnessbereich mit Sauna und Whirlpool verdient die Note 1! Erica ist sehr hilfsbereit und die Kommunikation vorab und während unseres Aufenthaltes war einwandfrei. Alles in allem eine große Empfehlung! Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!

Wir haben ein wunderschönes Wochenende auf dem Hausboot in Warmenhuizen verbracht. Es ist geräumig, modern und hervorragend ausgestattet. Die Lage ist ideal: ruhig und direkt am Wasser, aber dennoch zentral. Auch die Kommunikation mit Barbara war reibungslos und sehr angenehm. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder!

Ein tolles, super sauberes Hausboot. Wir waren als Familie dort und ich kann es absolut weiterempfehlen. Der Blick aufs Wasser ist traumhaft! Wir hatten die Fahrräder dabei, damit ist man innerhalb von ein paar Minuten im Zentrum. Ebenso ist ein Spar Markt mit den Rädern direkt erreichbar.

Our stay at the Tiny House Boat was just perfect for our time in Amsterdam. In such a beautiful location, in was incredible peaceful & tranquil whilst still being able to easily access the central city via bus/train. We will definitely be keeping this place in mind for when we return to Amsterdam, thank you Leendert & team!

We had a lovely stay! it was perfect for reading a book, do some cooking, catch up on sleep and enjoy the nature and the rocking of the boat. We did a nice 6km run as well. There are 4 boats next to each other docked to a camping van area. The King Fisher is the most outside one. There were no campervans at that time. There is a nice sauna which you can rent tho! The only thing that was a tiny tiny tiny bit disappointing, was the fact that the bedroom is not overlooking the water view but the neighbouring boat. Supermarket is a 10 minute drive by car. We didn't find restaurants on walking distance except for the campside/harbour next to it. A bike would be handy if you stay longer then 2 days. The free parking availability on the premises is definitely a plus as well. Nice place to regain back your energy!
