Houseboat description

Our location
The houseboat is located in a quiet side channel of the IJ and is moored on a quiet dike with many other houseboats. On the other side of the dike is the Wilmkebreekpolder, a unique piece of nature in the middle of Amsterdam. The free NDSM wharf ferry is a 25-minute walk away or 5 minutes by bike. This will take you directly to the central station. Public transport is a 15 minute walk and in 25 minutes you are in the heart of the city.

If you want to explore the typical Dutch landscape with the vast green fields and charming waterways, our houseboat is also a perfect choice for you. It is nice to explore the small villages in the area by bike. The Zaanse Schans, world heritage site with its iconic windmills, is also within easy reach.

Good night
Our guests appreciate our place because we are not far from the center, but are not bothered by noisy tourist crowds in our neighborhood. This ensures a wonderful night's sleep in the comfortable double bed. During your stay you will certainly enjoy the aquatic life like a 'local'.

Room
After coming back from the city you can either chill in your room or enjoy our garden. Through a sliding door in your room it is also possible to sit on our floating terrace. You can also use our pedal boat to explore the canal. In the summer months you can swim in the canal, as many locals do. Of course we offer all the luxuries you would expect from a comfortable room: underfloor heating, fast WiFi, television / radio and a private entrance.

 

Breakfast
Breakfast is included in the price and served in your DIY (Do It Yourself) style room for you to enjoy at your own time.

Free parking
Yes, it is quite exceptional in Amsterdam, but parking on our dike is free!

Neighbourhood
We have a good relationship with our neighbors and would like to keep it that way. That is why we ask you to cooperate in this. The stay in our B&B is a party, but we are not a party location. So no loud music or discussions in our garden.

We hope to have given you the best possible impression of our floating B&B, but feel free to ask questions if you still have them. We are happy to help you!

    Happiness is definitely Together - H&C July 2022

    We have just had a lovely 2 night stay with Roelie on Happiness Together. What a gorgeous location a short walk/cycle from central Amsterdam. We had travelled on our bikes, so Roelie was extremely accommodating with somewhere to keep them locked up safely! We swam everyday in the canal right from our bedroom & Roelie also lent us her paddle board, which was great fun! We spent every evening in central Amsterdam & using the free ferry was super easy & accessible, but it was nice leaving the hustle & bustle to come back somewhere quieter & more private! Roelie had left us with ample supplies for breakfast & was on hand to answer any questions or queries we had! She was a perfect host, and I am sure we will be back again! We couldn’t recommend Happiness Together any higher - thank you for having us ❤️

    stay in autumn Show original

    We used the houseboat for a long weekend and a city trip through Amsterdam. We really liked the quiet and the beautiful surroundings. Roelie was a very nice hostess. The sink was unfortunately very stained and the fridge was not filled up as I said.

    Happiness Together

    We enjoyed staying in Roelie’s houseboat. They were so hospitable and helpful. The view was beautiful and the stay was comfortable and quiet. We had a lovely swim in the canal and had so much fun riding bikes around Amsterdam. We would definitely recommend this houseboat rental and would love to stay here again.

    Great houseboat in a peaceful location

    We have just returned home from staying eight nights in this wonderful houseboat. Roelie & Jan are super hosts. Breakfasts and towels are refreshed every two days. Roelie was kind enough to allow us to check in early on arrival, and she drove us to the ferry on our first and last days. If we hadn't been so busy, we would have loved to take the pedalo boat out for a spin. We would love to return, and hopefully we will one day.
