Houseboat vacation rentals in Leidsegracht

Great boat house. Good location .

By far the most beautiful place we have stayed during our travels! We can’t recommend enough and it was worth every penny.

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!

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.

This is a beautiful houseboat in one of the best parts of Amsterdam. What a lovely experience to use a canal setting for our base of operations to see the city. Just fantastic in every way!

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!!

Lovely home Perfect neighborhood to stay if touring Amsterdam Host extremely responsive to any of our needs

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.

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.

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.

We had a wonderful weekend at Justin's. We felt comfortable immediately and everything was very clean. From the accommodation you can easily make excursions to Leiden, The Hague or the sea. The place is very private and quiet. Justin always responded quickly to our messages and was flexible with check-in and check-out times. I will recommend the accommodation! 😊

We felt very comfortable. Great nature everywhere, very quiet, swimming and especially an ideal starting point for bike tours. Restaurants and supermarket nearby. I'm sure we'll be back.

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 😊 🐈‍⬛ ❤️

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!

We had a great time on Mandy's houseboat. It was so clean and convenient with beautiful water views. We enjoyed the sauna, the comfortable bed, and Mandy was extremely communicative. Highly recommended!

A lovely houseboat out of the busy fray of Amsterdam with easily accessible public transportation, cafes and restaurants. The birdlife on the canal was a pleasure, including 5 recently hatched baby coots. Liz gave us proper food to give the parents and we enjoyed watching them feed their offspring. Great break from museums and all the activities of Amsterdam.

This is a perfect 1-3 night experience in Amsterdam! The boat looks and is exactly as it is listed. Kira helped us check in and was very friendly and helpful the entire time! Few things to note if considering: 1.) the kitchen is a hot plate that gets stored away when not using. I would eat out for every meal if saying here. 2.) you have to walk a boardwalk over two other boats to get inside and the doors are extremely skinny… so large luggage is not ideal. Other than that, it is close to the train station, centrally located and very quiet at night! We had a lovely time!

Just what we needed in between flights

It was a perfect stay in a great walkable location. Highly recommend

I would highly recommend this airbnb. It was absolutely incredible. I was instantly transported into the Dutch fantasy staying on this gorgeous house boat. The bed was really comfy which is a big deal. The boat had the most insane views from every window. I feel like photos don’t do this place justice. It was quiet, peaceful, walking distance to everything. It felt very safe. The hosts were responsive. I would likely stay here again if I ever come back.

Such a peaceful few days on Lies's houseboat. Perfect for our group of five adults. Lies made really excellent restaurant recommendations which we really enjoyed. Very close to shops and buses, not far to main station. Excellent for cycling.

What a lovely peaceful family home. Felt very happy staying here thank you Richella and family

We had two wonderful days in Anouk's nice houseboat. It had everything we needed and was clean and nice. Very comfortable beds and such a nice welcome. We loved the opportunity to use the small boat and went on beautiful trips in both directions from the houseboat's location in the canal. We also appreciated the service with the four bikes that were included. Use them for a trip in beautiful surroundings along canals and a visit to the next city. We had dinner two nights at the little restaurant across the street that had very good food. Plenty to see and experience by boat or bike at a reasonable excursion distance. Very nice, which we are happy to recommend. We were two couples who lived in the boat and were in the company of a third couple who in turn rented a room in Zaandijk nearby. It was close and was no problem for us to socialize despite different accommodations.

We had a wonderful stay on Erica's houseboat. The location is simply fantastic. Over a cup of coffee or a glass of wine and then this view from the terrace - just beautiful! We were able to really relax and disconnect from everyday life. The houseboat is very lovingly furnished with lots of little details. We lacked nothing. The wellness area with sauna and hot tub deserves the grade 1! Erica is very helpful and communication in advance and during our stay was impeccable. All in all a great recommendation! We will definitely be back!
