Welcome to Avontuur - the Ark for Healing, Wellbeing and Inner Growth. A historic clipper located in the heart of the city center of Rotterdam, one of the most exciting cities in the world for travelers! Avontuur is more then just a lodging space, it is an experience. An open ashramic space that offers yoga, meditation, workshops and concerts, as well as massage, coaching and an amazing spa experience. We have three beautiful spaces available, the Cute Room, the Cozy Room, and the Captains Hut.

The space
A truly unique and rejuvenating experience. Your own private room on an ark in the middle of the city centre. Flowing with the tides with the soothing sounds of the waves and the crackling of the fire place. Romantic, special and with all the amenities and comforts you are used to. If you prefer to upgrade, there is also a fully furnished Captains Hut available as well. Check the listing for more info: https://abnb.me/EVmg/Ciwy5Z5ilI

Guest access
There's an amazing roof terrace you can lounge on, and a beautiful and inspiring yoga and meditation space to practice and play around in.

During your stay
I also live on the ship, so if you have any questions you can always ask me. Your privacy and comfort are my foremost concern. If i'm away, i will answer you by mail of text message. And if needed, there are neighbours and co-hosts who are also available to help out. There is also a second Bed & Breakfast available on the ship in the Captains Hut, so you might meet other guests as well.

Other things to note
You are on a historic ship! It is a clipper from 1913, so expect what i call dynamic living. There is a soft and gentle sway to be felt which most people find deeply comforting. If however you experience some nausea, it will pass after a few hours. Just remember, go with the flow!

Some stairs may be slightly steep, which helps to keep your body in shape.
