The boat was in the best location. I'm not sure I would describe it as "luxury" but maybe more like "cozy". There were some cleanliness issues but overall it was perfect for my family. We enjoyed being in the hustle and bustle of the city. It was walking to distance to everything. We enjoyed just sitting on the upper enclosed deck and people watched. I would definitely stay here again.

We loved our stay in this houseboat! The location and accompanying can’t be beat, and our hosts were gracious and accommodating throughout the planning and the stay. Highly recommend!!

Great and unique stay. Much better than a typical hotel room or even a routine VRBO home. Coffee in the mornings on the stern watching the city come to life. Easy walks to all the best Amsterdam has to offer with the convenience of stopping back in mid day to relax. Drinks in the evening on deck watching the canal traffic float past you or friends over for dinner up top. I have been to Amsterdam over a dozen times, this was the most memorable.
Hosts were easy and quick with any communication. Would recommend highly.

We loved the location of the boat. It is in the heart of everything, but not near anything overwhelming or crazy. This is the cutest area and we were surrounded by lovely bars and restaurants. Easy to get around the city from here. The houseboat itself was charming and well taken care of. Plenty of space and really cute. We loved it!

We have been in Amsterdam many times, and always wondered what life would be like on a houseboat. It's wonderful. The place and the neighborhood both. Try to time your visit to take advantage of the Noordermarkt open market.
As a note, the "second bedroom" has a low ceiling and is reached though the main bedroom, but the foldout lounge in the living room area proved to be very comfortable as an alternative.
The bathroom is positively luxurious, which seems like magic given the setting!

Wonderful experience staying in the heart of the best neighborhood. We loved it. Thanks.

The houseboat was a fun experience in Amsterdam. It was beautiful inside and well appointed. The only downside was the towels were a bit threadbare, so new ones are definitely needed. Overall we loved staying here. Important to know that the houseboat is right next to a busy bar that is noisy until late at night. The neighborhood has lots of wonderful restaurants and fun shops so it’s a great place to be in the middle of the action, but if you need quiet for sleep, that might be an issue. This is a super unique rental and we loved it.

Very Unique experience. What a great way to stay a visit Amsterdam. Felt like I was one of the locals! Great location! We will definitely be using this place in the future again. Used there arranged Taxi service to and from the airport. They were on time and pick up and drop off right in front of the house boat! The only thing that might have been a nice touch would be including a couple bicycles, oh and maybe a washer/dryer combo, but now I’m really just being Primadonna lol….But in all seriousness if you can splurge a little do it….it was great in early March, I can only imagine how much better it would be in late spring/summer/ or early fall!

We enjoyed our quick trip to Amsterdam and staying on a houseboat made it extra special. Great location. The houseboat was very clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The hosts were very responsive to any of our inquiries and were willing to help throughout our stay. We would recommend staying at the houseboat AZARA Amsterdam to anyone.

We were very pleased with our stay in the houseboat. The neighborhood in particular was exceptional and the property managers were very responsive. We were very comfortable and enjoyed the spacious living room, but be advised the two bedrooms only have a curtain between them and the front one is too short to stand up in fully. Probably not ideal for two couples, but as a base of operations for a family on a trip to Amsterdam, I would recommend it!

Excellent location, seamless stay!

This houseboat is in a perfect location. Easy check-in, host were very accommodating. Close to restaurants including Winkel 43 which is known for delicious apple pies. The houseboat is spacious with a kitchen. We enjoyed having breakfast/drinks on the deck as we watched other boats go through the canal. Great experience!
6.0
Great location. Owners were helpful and responsive. This boat needs some TLC. It is in need of an interior paint job. I understand that painters were coming in the day we left so possibly this is corrected. Towels were old. Musty smell that took a while to air out. With some needed maintenance and a few items to make it homier this boat could live up to the title of “Luxury”.

Easy walking distance to everything we needed. Great restaurants and grocery shops nearby. Not disappointed.

The check-in process was wonderful, the neighborhood is amazing, great, open air market within walking distance once a week, views can’t be beat! Little miscommunication with the owner about check out… (we checked out 15 minutes late) she called and pretty ‘rudely’ told us she was not happy with us over the phone! Not a great way to leave :(

Had a lovely stay at this houseboat. The boat is cozy, well isolated, has everything you need and is very well located.
When we ordered, the listing stated that the property had three bedrooms, but the third bedroom is in fact the living room (with the option of folding out the bed).
When we decided to add an additional guest, the hosts were very helpful and easy to communicate with.

The houseboat was lovely having everything we needed. Being in the Joordan was a great location. Nice kitchen and area to sit to eat and watch the world go by. We took out from the Anthony Bourdain recommended Indonesian spot right across the street and were not disappointed. Also ate at Jottum for tapas and had Thai across the street as well all great. There are steps without a railing from the top section of the boat to the lower area but okay as long as you are careful Definitely recommend.

Unique way to experience a nice neighborhood in Amsterdam. Anything to do in the city is either a brief walk or short bike ride from the boat. I would strongly recommend this to family or friends that might be spending time in Amsterdam!

The houseboat is a fun accommodation in the perfect location in the Jordaan area of Amsterdam. The owners/hosts were very friendly, the beds were comfortable and the neighborhood had so much to do in a close area.

Our first trip to The Netherlands could not have been better and our stay on the houseboat was the cherry on top. Great communication with the hosts leading up to arrival, super easy check-in process, plenty of space with great amenities & wonderfully located in the heart of Amsterdam. We were able to walk from the boat to the Anne Frank Museum, Van Gogh Museum, the shopping district, several parks around the city & many restaurants and pubs. No doubt we will be staying there again on our next trip back!

We enjoyed a long weekend in the middle of this vivid and inspiring city. The boat was the perfect starting point for all our excursions and a comfortable place when coming back after a long day. Annette, Hermann & Dorian

The property was better than expected. The view was awesome and the neighborhood was quiet and pleasant. The only issue I have is lack of closet space as there was no where to place clothing. We had to live out of our suitcase.
