    You really have to experience this!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    What an incredibly beautiful spot!
    It really feels like you’re on another planet!
    Everything on the boat is so well-equipped.
    The surroundings are beautiful, too.
    Too bad we had to leave.
    Truly a gem!

    Beneficial

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Wouldn’t you love to carry a place like this with you all the time? So you could conjure up the peace, the vastness, and the sound of rippling water whenever you need it. We stayed two nights on Norderney with our dogs and feel absolutely happy. That’s also thanks to Sandra, who’s not only very warm and hospitable but has also furnished the boat with great taste and an eye for comfort.
    In any case, we hope to come back again someday!

    Sleeping on a boat was high on my bucket list. I’m glad I was able to check this off my list in Monnickendam. Sandra is a fantastic host who offers a unique nature house with great care and taste. She’s very communicative, super friendly, and you can really feel her hospitality in the cottage: plenty of pillows, blankets, and cozy linens. There are also plenty of supplies for cooking, eating, and enjoying a snack platter on the deck with a glass of wine.
    There’s air conditioning for hot days if needed. But the boat’s windows and doors also provide plenty of ventilation, and they’re well-protected with mesh screens against mosquitoes and flies. The water pressure in the shower is great (which is important to me). And I honestly can’t think of a single thing that made me think, “Oh, too bad this wasn’t here.”
    Thanks, Sandra! I hope to see you next time.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    On Sandra’s boat, a friend, my dog, and I got to enjoy a beautiful part of the Netherlands. Its location at the dock offers a view of the Gouwzee, which is home to all kinds of waterfowl and is surrounded by lush vegetation. It’s literally a feast for the eyes.

    The boat also exceeded all expectations. They’ve truly thought of everything, and I’ve rarely felt so welcome in a rental cottage. The boat is more spacious than the photos suggest, and two large women with a big dog had plenty of room (even in that box bed). Furthermore, the boat was very clean, logically laid out, bright, and beautiful.

    In just five minutes, you’re in Monnickendam, where you can sit on a terrace in a picturesque setting, enjoy a sandwich with freshly smoked herring, or explore the shops.

    We took our dog for walks every day—both in nature and right in the marina itself, where he had the time of his life walking along the water. Everything is close by, there’s plenty to choose from, and I definitely need to go back to explore more!
