About this apartment rental

Captain’s House is situated on the second and third floor of a historic building (National Heritage) from 1652.

The location of the apartment is right in the heart of the old city, in a residential and pedestrian street making it easy to reach and a perfect base to explore the city by foot, bike or public transportation.

We believe that a holiday is so much more comfortable in a clean environment, so we put extra effort to deliver a sparkling clean apartment.

On arrival and leaving luggage will be brought up and down for you.
Also on arrival I take you on a tour through the neighborhood to show you the nice places to eat and shop.

The first floor consist the Master bedroom with a large double bed. Bathroom with rain shower and toilet. There is also an extra separate toilet.
The second bedroom is cosy and with two single beds which also can be made up as a double kingsize bed.

There are plenty of towels, toilet paper and organic shower gel, shampoo and conditioner.

From the second bedroom you walk straight into a very sunny and quiet terrace.

The entire second floor consist of a spacious living room with two comfortable couches and a small but fully equipped kitchen.
There is also a television, cd and dvd player with a large selection of dvd series and movies.

The kitchen is provided with organic oils, vinegar, herbs and spices.
There is also a counter with organic coffee and teas.

It will be a pleasure hosting you in Captain’s House!

My wife and I, along with our adult children, were visiting Amsterdam as part of a longer trip to the UK. Our goal was to be out of the main touristy areas but with easy access to them. Captain's House was a great location in that way. It has a very 'neighborhoody' feel, yet it's a short walk from the Nemo Museum, Nieuwmarkt, the Red Light District, and the Central Station, which will get you anywhere you need to go in the city. Arjen, our host, went above and beyond to make us feel at home. He took the time to familiarize us with the neighborhood, pointing out the best places to dine, unwind, and shop for groceries, while also sharing some interesting historical tidbits. His guidance was invaluable and quickly made us feel like locals. The apartment was well-equipped and comfortable. We didn't cook, but it looked like he had everything you would need if you wanted to - there were just too many great restaurants to choose from! The only cons: The noise on the street late at night when the bar around the corner closes. (Only the front room and it's better if the windows and shutters are closed) Very steep and narrow steps up (though that's most homes in Amsterdam, from what I've learned.) We absolutely would stay here again!

Arjen was such an amazing host. He was there to greet us, helped carry our bags upstairs and gave us a lovely walking tour around the neighborhood. The apartment was everything we needed and more. The kitchenette is well equipped, the beds are comfy, the 2nd bathroom was nice to have, as was the patio. The neighborhood was easy to learn, and I felt completely safe, even when I went out for a stroll on my own. We walked almost everywhere we went, and we went everywhere...Anne Frank House, Van Gogh, Moco, Rijksmuseum, ARTIS, Nemo, A'DAM Lookout, This is Holland, canal tours etc. And it is very close to Central Station and the ferry. I will definitely ĺook for this rental first when I return and would recommend it to anyone.

Very quaint authentic building with a rather steep indoor staircase to the 3rd and 4th floor - no lift. But, Arjen, the owner, helped us load in/load out our luggage. He and his family lived next door - very convenient if we had inquiries for him. He was so helpful: initially walked us through the apartment and explained the appliances, ventilation, heating and entertainment systems. He then gave us a 45 minute walking tour of the neighborhood, and suggested places to eat, have coffee and a pastry, shop for groceries and visit (e.g. museums) - overall, a fine location. There was a popular tavern, Pollux, about 2 blocks away, and it could get a little noisy at closing time as crowds flowed out onto the street -- overall though, the crowd noise was tolerable. We'd definitely go again - and Arjen was a fine host!

Such a lovely place - we highly recommend! We were delighted that our host, Arjen gave us a walking tour of the neighborhood so we knew our way around a bit and felt right at home. The apartment is very comfortable, with a full kitchen, cozy living area and a sweet little deck area out back. We loved our stay.

The accommodation were exactly -or better- as described, and Arjen is an incredible host. The tour of the neighborhood and his check-ins and recommendations are the best I’ve experienced. The location is so convenient and beautiful. Would stay here again and recommend to anyone.

I have been a Vrbo user for over 20 years. Arjen who lives down stairs was the most kind and helpful host i have experienced among a lot of helpful hosts i have met. In this locatio you feel you are living in Amsterdam, but its very central. This was my third time in Amsterdam, so i have seen many angles.

Arjen was attentive without being intrusive. His orientation walk through the neighborhood was extremely helpful. He helped with our heavy bags and had some nice treats as well as a well provisioned kitchen. There were fresh flowers in the apartment throughout our stay. All was very clean and organized with nice soap products and lots of towels. Having the extra toilet is a big plus. Close to Central Station and the Rembrandt House, everything we wanted was near at hand but a bit outside the commotion of tourists in the Red Light District. Be advised that the stairs are steep (as they generally are in these homes from the 1600’s) but the experience of staying in a historic place is worth the effort. We can not say enough good things about our stay and would definitely book it again if we visit in the future.
