    An unusual and charming property. Great location and very comfortable. The hosts were welcoming and helpful. The sauna was excellent.

    Great location, right in the centre, but not too close to be in all hustle and bustle. Lovely property and loved every minute of staying on the boat. Sauna was an added great bonus, but the boat itself was perfect and comfortable with central...

Thijs & Dawn
Anna houseboat is a large converted cargo ship from 1907. Moored in a unique spot in downtown Amsterdam. Recently upgraded to modern standards, but still looking classic, with lots of original features. Overlooking the old Harbour with its ships in all shapes and sizes. Come, and enjoy the gentle sway on the waves from the boats passing by. Our large newly renovated studio is bright and airy in a retro nautical style. Unique : Your own private sauna! Free internet, tea, coffee and basic breakfast provided. The large bathroom with shower has all necessities like hair-dryer and iron. The deck with a private terrace has a panoramic view over the harbour and landmarks. You will get your own keys, so you can come and go as you please. The owners, Thijs and Dawn, live in the aft of the ship, and will be happy to explain and answer any questions.
