Amazing location, close to city center and all attractions. Very interesting concept of a boat house. Option to rent add-on's like small boat or Jacuzzi or bike. Good communication with owner.

Saudi ArabiaThe hot tub was amazing! Also, they promptly emailed me that I had left some jewelry behind.
United KingdomOur little family had a lovely stay at wikkelboat. The tiny houses are stunning and the location exceptionnal. Jaccuzi experience in the winter in the city centre won’t be forgotten, kids loved it. House is as expected well reflected on and you can enjoy every spaces. Should come back in summer time for a bbq on the terrace deck. It was very quiet and we all slept well.
NetherlandsUnique place in the center of Rotterdam, we spent amazing night there, enjoying the hot tub and the incredible city view. The apartment has so big panoramic windows that you can stay in bed and see the beauty of river, bridges and buildings around. I definitely would like to return back to this place. It was amazing experience!
RussiaI love the location and the facilities at the place.
NetherlandsFabulous location and a really quirky place to stay. An abundance of technology but lacking some basics - e.g. bottle opener. We were given the wrong code for the self service check-in and were trying for half an hour in the pouring rain. Host was quick to advise correct code when we called but left a really sour taste to our stay. Beds were really comfortable.

The Wikkelboat is a unique tiny houseboat made of cardboard, but then made water resistant with some great Dutch design:-) You definitely will love a stay....almost all commodities are aboard and you've your own private terrace and unique view over the waterside. The Wikkelboat consists of 2 roms with each a luxurious 2 persons bed. At daytime the beds are standing against the walls, but at night you can easily pull them to the flor, with the help of hydraulic pumps. It sleeps max. 4 people.
Jelle and Sander are the owners of the Wikkelboat and it's harbour, the Red Apple Marina.
Wikkelboat is located in a beautiful small harbour in the middle of the city of Rotterdam. The area, called Maritime District, is ful of skyscrapers, water and history and all public transport hubs are juist around the corner! A perfect stepping stone for exploring The Netherlands!
