“Very special experience to sleep on a sailboat without sailing on the sea or river.”

This was a very different kind of stay. Everything was available and more spacious than expected. Sitting upper deck and enjoying the peace with a complementary glass of bubbly was amazing

Wow!!! This is what I call a real vacation. This boat is so cozy and cute, in an excellent location walking distance to the old town. My husband and I put on the radio and enjoyed some champagne at the table, as the boat rocked gently on the water. It was great to be able to just let our hair down and enjoy such an extraordinary experience. The boat is equipped with all the basic essentials as well as coffee and tea. Dirk and his team are friendly and very easy going. We will be back!

“Adventure, relaxation and a beautiful location”
Dirk messaged to explain where to park, which was a great help. He welcomed us to the boat and showed us how everything worked. He gave us information about places to eat, shops etc. The boat is a quirky way to spend a few days on the river. It had a refrigerator, radio and cooking facilities. Everything you could need for a short stay. The location could not have been better, well within easy reach of the town. The sunrise and sunsets were breathtaking. I travelled with my 7 year old son who made each day an adventure. He really didn't want to leave. I'd highly recommend this to smaller families. It is hands down a better experience than a hotel room. I'd definitely try to stay here again.

“Nice owner, nice boat, very clean, but not the same experience as when the boat would have been in the harbour as shown”
The owner was very kind, and the boat was a nice one plus very clean/hygienic✨ Getting to the harbour was due to closing of the roads (for a month) impossible. Would have been easy if giving the adres of the street I could have parked. Now extra 40 minutes plus petrol. Besides that it was not the harbour on the pictures. So no beautiful view at all. Plus two boats attached to it. Which meant all the time people walking on the boat to get to their boats… Dropping heavy luggage and stamping on the room where I slept. And the bed was helas not comfortable as well. So to be honest a bit of a disappointment all in all…
