Bed-on-a-Boat
Welcome to Bed on a Boat in the lovely village Giethoorn! We have a luxury suite on the water especially for 2 persons. Cosy, space and intimicy for 2! A beautiful unique place to sleep on the water. A luxurious suite with a bedroom, a bathroom, a living room with a sofa bed and a kitchenette. For a special occassion you can hire this luxury suite. Sleep in your private bedroom, enjoy your breakfast in the living room with a nice view over the water, explore the lovely village Giethoorn by boat for example and sit on the sofa with a glass of wine and enjoy the silence. With kid(s)? No problem! In the living room is a sofa bed, with enough space for two kids to sleep. Note: Bed-on-a-Boat stays in the harbor. You can't sail with the boat.
Welcome at our marina Hoek in the beautiful Giethoorn. Here you can find your luxury suite on water. Do not hesitate, you can call us at any time. We love to make your stay as pleasant as we can. A beautiful unique place to sleep on the water of Giethoorn!
From the marina you can easily walk to "Dutch Venice" Giethoorn. There are no roads in Giethoorn and the tranquility is almost dreamlike. It’s so quiet because there are no ways for cars to get around, because there are no roads. Locals and visitors to Giethoorn navigate in whisper-quiet ways: by bike, boat or foot. In this hamlet, a collection of small peat islands connected by bridges, you can walk or sail among thatched-roof farmhouses and footbridges crossing the maze of canals. Explore!
