Houseboat vacation rentals in Kaag en Braassem

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.

Our family loved our stay on Tante Piet in Amsterdam! It was a great way to stay in Amsterdam like a local. The boat was comfortable for two adults and two children (our kids are 12 and 8 and were very comfortable). It was great to have a nice outdoor seating area to spend evenings and one night we used the grill to make dinner. The beds were comfortable for sleeping and the bathrooms were nice. If anyone is worried about feeling movement while on the water, worry not. You don't feel it at all. Siet (+ hubby Frank) is an amazing host. She was friendly with our kids and had great recos on things to do and restaurants to eat at. There were some minor issues – such as the internet going out one day and a power outage another day. But Siet proactively addressed these issues immediately with us and got them corrected as soon as possible ... sometimes before we even realized there was an issue, haha! Staying in this house boat made for a memorable part of our trip to a great city.

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

Great stay at Marie Louise's! A beautiful person and an incredibly cute house on the water with everything you need next to Amsterdam accessible in 15 minutes by car (we opted for a RAI europaplein car park and we took the metro to the center of Amsterdam) unfortunately the P+R were very often inaccessible so we had to pay 35€the day of parking + the metro trips but we were waiting.. I hope to be back someday!

Great view of the water, bed was different but very comfy. Host went out of her way to add welcome sign so that was amazing. We would definitely recommend this place and would book again!

Beautiful houseboat in a great location and easy access to all of Amsterdam. The houseboat was warm and cosy and perfect for our short stay. Hanco is a great host

If you are tired of the usual hotels or vacation rental apartments, I can't imagine a better place to stay. I've been fortunate to travel many places and I almost always book a private VRBO or Air BnB and this houseboat probably ranks as one of my favorites. If you really want to experience Amsterdam first hand and feel like a local celebrity, stay here, you will know what I mean... When we come back to Amsterdam, and I'm sure we will, we will definitely find a date to travel when this super cool place is available to stay.

Perfect location, unique way to stay in the city. Would highly recommend. Very different experience, of course, than a home or hotel but this makes travel more fun. Being right on the "skinny" bridge was a fantastic experience. Great for people watching or just quickly being right in the middle of everything.

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.

Very peaceful accommodation, the only noises you will hear will be those of ducks and geese. Listing is as described. Everything you need for a pleasant stay. Carla is very responsive. She greeted us on our arrival and had prepared some small treats for us, which we found very nice. We would highly recommend it and will certainly make a new stopover when we return to the country!

Had a great time at the boat house, I great experience and Pepper the cat was also really cute!

If you are looking to stay on the river in a quiet neighbourhood - on a house boat - it doesn't get better than this. I loved waking up, peering out onto the water. Each morning the rowers are out, people running along the riverbank - it's incredibly peaceful yet full of life. This is a real boat, not a floating house so you have to navigate different levels inside, getting on and off the boat etc. All part of the charm. Martin is a fabulous host. Note: this is the old school airbnb of old - its Martin's home, beautifully appointed, spacious and generously kitted out - with the comfort of a 'lived in' feel. The upper deck is just delightful, full of light and windows and you can sit with your coffee and watch the river-world go by. The area is surrounded by park, but just nearby is a lovely high-street with shops, supermarkets, bars, restaurants and deli's. Trams will take directly into the centre of Amsterdam - everything you need - highly recommended!

The host was very friendly and nice. The location and surroundings were very beautiful.

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!

Amazing place. Great location. Memorable view. Elizabeth is a great host who made us feel welcomed and at home. She provided all instructions clearly and was very friendly. The place tempted us to stay longer indoors as you have the canal right by the window and a decking to enjoy the sunshine outside. Definitely recommend this place and the host

We stayed in houseboat number 6 for a long weekend and were very satisfied with it. The few boats that pass by during the day do not disturb, otherwise there is no other houseboat in direct line of sight and you are really self-sufficient from everything. We had brief problems with the oven and the toilet, our messages were responded to quickly and a technician came by. At the start of the season, this can happen and it did not spoil our recovery. We'd love to come back anytime!

Fabulous place to stay central between Amsterdam and all of the flower fields!!

We were on the houseboat with two adults and two children (11 + 13 years) for an extended weekend. It was really fun! Especially for the two teenagers. The houseboat is new, clean and exploring the area with the small dinghy (tender) was a great experience for everyone. However, a mosquito net for the bed is recommended. Even in October it is still warm enough in the boat and the small oven (pellet) is completely sufficient for this time of year. The price is fine, because entertaining the houseboat seems quite elaborate to me.

Wonderful stay on the houseboat! Our stay at the houseboat was simply fantastic! The location right on the water is unbeatable. 😍❤️The house is lovingly decorated, very clean and offers everything you need for a relaxing break. We particularly liked the cozy terrace, where you can have breakfast or enjoy the sunset. The hosts were super friendly, helpful and available at any time. We will definitely be back – absolutely recommended!

I had the pleasure of staying at the Surla Houseboat for two nights, and I must say, it was absolutely spiffing! From the moment we stepped aboard, we knew we were in for a great experience. The view from the boat was simply marvellous, providing a picturesque backdrop that made us feel like we were in a postcard. Our stay was nearly perfect, save for a minor hiccup with an appliance that went on strike after a power cut. However, a quick call to the host resolved our woes. The host was remarkably attentive and sprang into action like a superhero in a cape (well, not literally, but you get the picture). Thankfully, the stunning environment and the overall experience more than made up for the temporary blip in appliance functionality. Wendy, the lovely host who introduced us to the houseboat, was incredibly nice. She gave us a detailed tour and explained everything with such precision that it

We had a wonderful weekend on Robbert's boat. Easy arrival, very nice stay, super quiet and everything you need on board! 100% recommended if you are looking for a quiet weekend in nature and on the water. Would definitely do it again!

This delightful houseboat with a sun filled deck was a delightful place to relax. The charming town of Aalsmeer was a lovely break from the hustle of Amsterdam which was accessible by Uber, train or bus

We only stayed one night, but our kids and we had an amazing time. I wouldn't say that there is too many things to do around, but the surrounding houses are incredible and it is well worth it just for the experience.
