Danielle

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Wonderful experience. Martyn was very hospitable. The location is quiet and across from the zoo. Waking up to elephants and zebras was incredible. We enjoyed a nice hit tea on top of the boat in the mornings while we watched boaters and swimmers come by. We truly enjoyed this property and it’s fully stocked kitchen supplies.

perfect location! excellent owners!

We enjoyed staying at this beautiful houseboat at the end of March for a week. With 3 kids (12,9,7) we gave them the bedroom with the HUGE bed and my wife and I took the sofa sleeper. We loved the experience of living on a canal with the Artis Zoo directly across the water. The neighborhood is very quiet with excellent resteraunts, bus/tram access and a great grocery store a block of two away. Everything we needed was included with the gorgeous boat and the owner and his mother were excellent to deal with! We would definitely stay here again!

8/10 Good

The only way to stay in Amsterdam!

We absolutely loved our time on the Medicijan Man! It's in a quiet location, but still close enough to the main city centre areas. We enjoyed playing cards on the deck, waving to all the folks cruising the canal and watching the giraffes and zebras across the canal at the zoo. A true Amsterdam experience. Everything was wonderful on the boat and we'd certainly stay there again if we ever make it back to Amerstdam.
