The houseboat is in a great location for walking all over Amsterdam. It is at least 20 min from Schiphol, not 8 minutes as listed. The bed arrangement was not as shown in the ad, leading to some disappointed teenagers that had to share a tiny sleep space. The furniture is different too, so an update to the ad is needed. Its very noisy at night, so bring earplugs. Otherwise it was convenient and easy, and definitely different from a typical hotel stay! We had no contact with our hosts but it was not necessary. Its very nice to watch the boats on the canal go by right from your window.

Our family had a lovely time staying at Houseboat Avalon! It was comfortable, well decorated, and had plenty of room for 2 adults and 2 children (10 & 12) for a few days. We loved being steps away from great restaurants, coffee, shops, and staying on the canal was such a fun experience. Check-in was easy (lockbox code and a quick call to make sure we had found everything we needed) and the host communicated well in advance and during our stay. Would definitely stay here again!

Our family of four had a perfect stay at this charming, comfortable houseboat. Our biggest concerns were that it would be cramped and that it might be loud. Neither was the case. The space is elegant and spacious and more comfortable than most hotels or apartments we've rented. The spot on Prinsengracht is close enough to find groceries, restaurants, bars, etc, but far from the noise of partying. The hosts were responsive and wonderful. Just a great stay all around and we can't wait to get back.

The houseboat was a perfect spot to stay in Amsterdam! The location couldn’t have been better and staying right on (or in) the canal was an incredible experience. We had a lovely time watching boats drive by and greeting the ducks that swim up when we opened the windows. The interior was clean and comfortable, and we were able to cook and make our morning coffee. We would absolutely stay here again.

The boat on the canal was amazing! I'd definitely stay there again. It gave our visit to Amsterdam even more of the local experience.

We had an excellent visit to Amsterdam and it was partly because of how perfect the houseboat was! It was clean and spacious and really centrally located! Highly recommend for the full Amsterdam experience! Beds were comfortable, boat had everything we needed and more! I was worried about sleeping on a “boat”, but it barely moved and I couldn’t even tell! 10/10 would recommend!

What a wonderful stay in our own houseboat. So close to many major attractions and nestled in a charming neighborhood. Many excellent restaurants and shops for you to enjoy your morning or evening stroll. If coming back to Amsterdam, this will be the place we book again!

This property was very fun to stay in. It is located on a main canal and provides easy access to the exciting life in Amsterdam. The boat was comfortable for two of us. The only real downside is the traffic on both sides -boats on one side, cars, bikes and people on the other.
