We had a wonderful 5 night stay at the Sailor Suite Coaster Mado! It was the perfect place to explore Amsterdam and the surrounding areas. Marieke and Sander are the best hosts ever!! The kitchen was stocked with plenty of coffee plus chocolate and wine and beer. Our hosts made several suggestions for local restaurants, all were great. They also directed us to the busses and trams we would need during our stay. The communication with our hosts was exceptional from the time of the initial booking.

First, our host was friendly and accommodating from the start! She advised us on parking, travel in and around city center, made sure we felt comfortable in every way. 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.
