It was an amazing experience, the vibe of the place is great and it is very close to a metro station. Mr. Gross was super nice, he showed us everything, he even welcomed us with snacks and drinks. All in all it was terrific and way better than we expected (and we had really high expectations). I would totally recommend! Thank you.

My family of 4 rented 2 cabins, we had everything we needed, and it felt very special. Every nook and cranny was clean, information sheet was helpful, coffee supplies, refrigerator, and sweet touches like flowers and extra blankets and towels!

    This house boat is a little but out of the city but worth the distance. It is a unique place to stay. It's clean, spacious and comfortable. The owner popped in a couple of times to check we had everything we needed. It's a walk to the nearest metro station or a taxi/bolt into town. Stayed in December, but I bet it's amazing in the summer! Would definitely recommend.

    The houseboat was lovely and there were enough mod cons ( hot water, comfy beds, coffee machine, fridge, heaters and privacy ) to keep guests happy. Asile Flottant is set within a friendly creative community with decent cafes and restaurants nearby. Welcoming and helpful hosts too. Amsterdam Centraal is a 25 min walk away via a 2 min free ferry ride, or 6 mins by bike : ). Our family of 4 had a great time and would definitely stay again.

    Great little spot in North Amsterdam, away from the business of the city but just a short ferry journey away. The area itself is very trendy. Host was great with providing little touches to make us feel welcome and at home in her property. The best part of the property is easily the terrace, very picturesque view of the houseboat village.

    The houseboat was lovely and in a great location, surprisingly quiet at night. The beds were comfortable, there was enough room for the 4 of us. Very nice to have a fridge and table to eat breakfast at. In summer it would be great to sit out on the pontoon in the sun. It was really easy to find and access based on the messages sent to us.
