Welcome on board! The VaarHuizen are the most famous professionally sailing Houseboats in the Netherlands. In addition to a spacious front terrace on deck, this (especially) cozy VaarChalet has 4 sleeping places. Once inside, guests are quickly impressed by the space. In addition to the cozy wooden beam atmosphere, this VaarChalet has 220V electricity (like at home) with central heating, a bathroom with a shower, a separate toilet, a kitchen with a large refrigerator and a Nespresso coffee machine. View the floor plans and photos for a good impression on board. Would you like to use a boat tour with our skipper? Unique, because with VaarHuis Vakanties you do not sail the boat yourself, but here you are sailed around with your own Houseboat. Ask the VaarHuis Crew about the possibilities! Do you want to sleep in and check out later? You can add these options to your reservation!

Romantic, active, adventurous or just a 'zen' moment on a Houseboat? You've already figured it out, then the VaarHuis concept is really something for you. Unique in Friesland, because at VaarHuis Vakanties you don't rent a boat yourself, with us you are sailed by the VaarHuis Crew! You book for your stay on board a unique Houseboat on a basic accommodation arrangement. You will then be moored at a truly top location and you can book an additional sailing arrangement (not mandatory). Please note: the location where the VaarChalet is located is Holiday Park RCN de Potten: De Potten 2-38, 8626 GG in Offingawier (near the Sneekermeer)
