De Pijp holiday rentals

Albert’s houseboat is an incredibly comfortable and peaceful place to stay. It is very well equipped. It was spotlessly clean and had everything an international traveler might appreciate, including the full size washing machine and dryer, very effective heating, double glazing and condiments (eg herbs, spices, oil) to make the most of the chef’s kitchen overlooking the canal. A real highlight was watching the rowers come past in the early morning and the visiting waterbirds including coots, ducks and swans. We didn’t meet Albert but he was available if we had any queries. We loved every minute of our stay here. If you see this and are thinking about it, you won’t regret it.

This is a wonderful apartment which is so well thought out in terms of what guests need for a great stay. The apartment is spacious and thoughtfully designed, in a great location with lovely views over the canal and delightful garden, very well equipped with equipment, information and provisions provided by the host. The host is so warm and welcoming and was in regular contact both before and during our stay. Guests however, need to be aware that there are 4 steep flights of stairs to the apartment, though our host assisted with baggage. Overall, a lovely host and apartment!

The location is unbeatable, the restaurant downstairs is awesome (we ate/drank there three times) as are a number of places nearby. There is a bike rental shop next door and a supermarket just down the street which were both very useful for the duration of our stay. The host was great and explained everything in detail when we arrived and made some good reccommendations about where to go and eat. We of course loved the touches of beer/sparkling wine that we could enjoy upon arrival along with some snacks. The bed is also super comfy. I absolutely recommend staying here! It was one of highlights of our holiday so far.

This accommodation was perfect - great location, fantastic vibe, clean, wonderful hosts that supplied some lovely food and toiletries and were extremely helpful. We walked to the station 5 minutes away to get the train to Central and beyond. Just change trains at Zuid (about 3 stops)…the next station is the airport…quicker and cheaper than a taxi. We also walked to the galleries from here - 10minutes. And walked to most places…Ann Frank, Central station, Rembrandt Square. Restaurants and supermarkets around the corner and of course a canal! You need to book when you see the vacancy as it books up quick and no wonder, it really is perfect!
