In the centre of Amsterdam, you will find Michele’s Houseboat. A brand new houseboat moored at the Ruysdaelkade to enjoy your stay in amsterdam!

In the centre of Amsterdam, in the museum quarter, you will find Michele’s Houseboat. A brand new houseboat moored at the Ruysdaelkade, where you can experience Amsterdam in a unique way: living on the water. The houseboat is divided into three apartments, one large one where I live myself with my boyfriend Nils, and two smaller apartments where you can enjoy your holidays or business trip in Amsterdam! Each of the apartments has their own private entrance, en-suite bathroom, and a large double bed that can be made up for either a couple or two singles. All guests have access to the large roof terrace where one can eat, drink, laugh, bbq or tan! You could book both of the apartments together or one apartment just let me know what you prefer!

Looks like Amsterdam is getting into the Halloween spirit! 🎃👻

This morning’s misty views brought some spooky vibes to the city, just in time for Halloween weekend.

What are your Halloween plans? 🖤

The building was storing sails and cannons for the Dutch navy three hundred years before it held a museum.

‘s Lands Zeemagazijn was finished in 1656 on an artificial island in the harbour, and it is enormous. Rigging, sails, flags and guns for the fleet, all under one roof, with vaulted cellars beneath the courtyard holding tens of thousands of litres of rainwater as drinking water for the ships. It burned to its shell in 1791 and was rebuilt. The navy kept using it until the 1970s.

Look up when you walk in. The glass roof over the courtyard was designed by Laurent Ney and follows the compass rose and the rhumb lines you find drawn across old sea charts. Because the old building sits out of square, no two pieces of glass in it are the same. Every one was cut individually.

Moored at the jetty outside is a full-size replica of the Amsterdam, an eighteenth century East Indiaman that sank off the English coast on its first voyage in 1749. You can go aboard, and the space below deck is much smaller than you are expecting.

Then find the library. Nobody tells you it is there.

Twenty minutes outside Amsterdam and it’s just wind turbines, fields and sky. Go with your flow this week, and if it takes you out of the city for an afternoon, even better.

Happy Monday 💛

Consider this your sign to finally book that trip to Amsterdam. 🇳🇱✨

Canal-side cafés, beautiful little streets and endless places to explore. There’s always something to fall in love with in this city.

And what better way to experience Amsterdam than waking up right on its canals? 🏡🚤

So, when are you coming? We have a houseboat waiting for you! 🤍

This is Amsterdam. Blue skies on the water, then a downpour so hard you can barely see the bridge, and somehow people are still out there fishing.

Then the sun comes back like nothing happened, and the neighbours go back to watering their plants.

We wouldn’t live anywhere else 💛

Amsterdam Marathon weekend is here 🏃‍♀️

Whether you’re running, cheering, or simply wondering why half the city suddenly seems to be wearing running shoes, here’s what you need to know this weekend:

1. The main event is Sunday, 18 October.
The TCS Amsterdam Marathon starts at 09:00, followed by the Mizuno Half Marathon at 13:20. The 7.5K takes place today, Saturday 17 October, at 14:15. TCS Amsterdam Marathon

2. The marathon route is a pretty good tour of Amsterdam in itself.
Runners start and finish inside the Olympic Stadium, pass under the Rijksmuseum, run along the Amstel, through Vondelpark and past the Heineken Experience. Not a bad 42 kilometres of sightseeing. TCS Amsterdam Marathon

3. And yes, it is BIG.
Around 65,000 runners take part across the whole marathon weekend. The full marathon alone had 32,000 places and the half marathon 15,000, and both sold out within a week. TCS Amsterdam Marathon

4. If you’re not running, plan your Sunday accordingly.
There are road closures across a large part of the city, including around Stadionweg, Amstelveenseweg, Stadhouderskade, Hobbemakade, Zuidas, Amsteldijk and several areas further east. Some start as early as 06:00 and continue into the evening. TCS Amsterdam Marathon

5. If we were choosing somewhere to watch? The Amstel.

It’s one of the most scenic stretches of the marathon route, with plenty of that Amsterdam-by-the-water feeling we’re rather biased towards.

So whether you’re chasing a PB or cheering from the side with a coffee in hand, enjoy the city on one of its busiest running weekends of the year. 🏃‍♂️🇳🇱

Save this for tomorrow and share it with whoever you’re doing marathon weekend with. Are you running or watching? 👇

15/10/2026

Weekend plan: no alarm, sun on the window seat, canal right outside. Maybe not getting out of bed until noon.

So what’s it going to be, sleeping in or doing nothing by the water? (Both counts.)

We have two houseboats in Amsterdam if you want that too. Send us a message with your dates 🤍
