A must stay
Pros:

It was a surreal experience, felt like staying on a houseboat with all the comforts of land. We sighted many birds, boats, and even smakeboat practice sessions!

Prachtige idyllische lokatie!
Pros:

De lokatie is prachtig! Zicht op de backwaters en woonboten. Vanaf de straatkant moet je nog een paadje langs een kanaaltje volgen. Er is geen aanwijzing dus de eerste keer weet je niet of je juist zit. Volg google maps of vraag het aan een voorbijganger.
Het contact met de eigenaar is zeer goed, hij helpt je bij alle vragen!

Cons:

De lakens waren wat versleten, maar dat was niet zo erg. Er was geen ontbijt of restaurant maar je kan alles laten bezorgen en de eigenaar helpt je daar graag bij.
De ligzetels op het balkon hebben gekke verlengingen aan de armleuningen, je kan handig je voeten erop leggen maar dit maakt ze heel log en lastig om te draaien en te keren. Tip aan de eigenaar: ik zou die verlengingen eraf halen

Great View
Pros:

The view was amazing. It was peaceful. A great place to people watch and absorb the vibes.

Cons:

Dated roofing, wood could be decaying and the floor often got dust on it and was not fully clean till I requested it to be cleaned.
