About this property

Unique houseboat with Sauna @ walking distance historic center of Amsterdam.

Are you looking for a special overnight stay or a romantic getaway for two people on the water? Then quickly discover everything about this beautiful wellness boat within walking distance from the UNESCO-protected historic center of Amsterdam. The boat is mored at a private marina within walking distance from Central Station Amsterdam, YOU CAN'T SAIL WITH IT & ALSO NOT SUITED FOR Children & PARTY. The neighborhood is very dynamic with a lots of Hotspots on walking distance, like the canal & red light district, Anna frank house& wester tower, 9 street, central Station Amsterdam & many restaurants /bars /shops.

This special stay on the water has a warm Finnish sauna that can easily turn in to a living / chill room with cozy fireplace. The spa provide also a relax bed and a wonderful rain shower in the shape of a tree trunk. On the deck you can relax in the luxurious sun loungers or chill in the hammock when the weather is good. There is also a swimming deck with staircase for the swimmers & watersports lovers. when the weather is not so good you can nestle yourself in a bathrobe on the lounge bed on the lower deck or lie-down on the king size bed watch the ducks & swans cross over & listen to the raindrops.

This old fishing cutter received a complete transformation in 2020, now it's transformed into a beautiful wellness boat & baptized with the name 'De Omega' The zen interior was designed with the use of natural and sustainable materials being central to create a relaxed atmosphere. A nice detail is the starwatching roof above the dining table, so you don't have to go on deck to enjoy the starry sky.

Additional plus is that it is also sustainable, the entire boat is self-sufficient and an ingenious osmosis system from Austria ensures that this filtered water is even drinkable. You can read in detail how they did this in the information folder upon arrival. Nice to know is that the wood in the boat is old sanded planks recycled from the cheese warehouses and the entire boat is very well isolated & heated with central heating system in the coldest months.

Welcome to my boat 'De Omega' experience this unique floating Wellness Spots for yourself !

The stay was more rustic than anticipated. Plumbing is something to get used to and we weren’t prepared for that, the wifi did not work. No towels available. The cost was too high for the amenities provided.
