Floating House ARENA 2
The stay at the floating house was excellent. The space in the houses is used very clever, so you have enough room for plenty of your stuff, and it feels much larger than we expected by the photos. The location is great,it is in the Marina Veruda. You can use the services and locations the Marina provides (Restaurant,Bar,Pool, a small Shop, ATM etc.). To the next beach it is about 20 min through the marina or on the other side to the Verudela peninsula. Or you can hire a small boat directly from the 3maran-team to get to the next beaches or islands. The contact at the location was perfect. Any small Problems,any questions were handled/answered in minutes. Nice home,great location, perfect service. We can absolutly recommend the floating houses! Thank you very much.

Sailing-Vis
Adventure for sure. We took our 6 and 10 year old hoping to find a different perspective of the island of Vis and this does just that. We met Kreso, the skipper, and he took us to the boat from the ferry. We knew we would paddle board into dinner and found a lovely restaurant,Boccadoro. Got back to the boat before the early summer storm and had a great thunderstorm sleep in the spacious cabins. Mornings are delightful. Kreso comes at 10am to take us to a beautiful cove of Stoncica where we had a liter of vugava and olives and warm bread on the beach. We had wonderful weather overnight. We met the skipper again and headed to the blue cave, tunnel and spend the afternoon near Rogačić ending in the bay of Vis to catch the ferry in the A.M. 1. Less is more except with warm evening wear and snacks, card games 2. Be flexible and adventurous. This is not a yacht, quarters are spacious but simple 3. Communication is key but also know NO one can control weather or your expectations.

Thank you Giuseppantonio for the most amazing Amalfi experience we could’ve possibly had! Highly, highly, highly recommended!!!!

ArkaBarka Floating Rooms & Apartments -King Studio
Great opportunity to stay in a boat house near the city. The boat house was true to the photos and description. We didn’t realise there was a house cat, so gorgeous and the swans swim nearby which is very cool. The staff were very attentive and the breakfast was truly generous, a feast. We really liked the bedroom as it was very spacious and had an extra single bed which was great. Bathroom is a bit tight but actually lovely and means you don’t delay and get to spend more time on the balcony! Very good experience and super chilled stay.

Cozy Double Room
Stefan was a really friendly host, and made us feel very welcome at the hostel. It was really nice and relaxing to have breakfast outside on the floating terrace in the morning with beautiful view of the river.

Apartment on a barge 10 minutes from the city center
A timeless weekend thanks to this magical barge, well arranged and very clean! Everything was perfect!

Marina Azzurra Resort by Interhome
We are completely satisfied and had an great stay for two. We especially liked the cleanliness of the facility and the accommodation. Our houseboat on the river was a dream to be in. Everything needed was available and we felt like in our own 4 walls. The rooms were also very spacious, so they don't feel constricted. Also the pool is super well maintained. We definitely want to come again.

Kingfisher Floating Hotel
A great stay with George and the crew. Everything on the boat is perfect and the staff is very friendly. Very much recommended for a distinct and special trip to the Delta.

Houseboat Sava River
Such a nice place to stay, while being in the city of Beograd during the day. We really enjoyed biking through the nature and into the city every day. Vanja and his daughter are so kind and very helpful. We would love to get back to this place again.

Floating Dream
We just spent a night in this accommodation. What can I say, everything was perfect. Andrea was immediately kind and helpful, answering all my questions. The accommodation is something truly magical. The aperitif and breakfast service, brought directly by Andrea at the time we chose, made everything even more wonderful. I absolutely recommend this place, for a weekend of relaxation and romance. Congratulations on the originality.

Floating sea house - Vital Lux
Boathouse excellently equipped and perfectly clean! Pleasant and quiet surroundings - center of portoroz nearby Alenka gave us all the instructions in advance for a pleasant stay and was responsive in case of unforeseen circumstances 👍 Thanks for allowing us to spend a few wonderful days on your boathouse

Bonita cottage in Ada Bojana
Everything was perfect! The place looked exactly like the photos—clean, cozy, and very comfortable. The location was great, easy access to everything we needed. The host was super helpful and responsive to all our questions. Would definitely stay here again. Me and my girlfriend went there for a birthday occasion and Benjamin arranged and left a birthday cake in the cottage plus balloons which we did not even ask for it! It was one of the amazing and relaxing Airbnb we’ve ever stayed! Definitely recommend it! Don’t even think about twice for this cottage, just go for it :)

Floating Álvaro
This was a very special stay. We were a group of 6 friends and the houseboat freely accommodated us all. The surroundings are beautiful - we loved that there were kayaks and a paddle board to use. One of the highlights of our trip to Portugal! The host and employee Rui were both friendly and attentive. Would recommend to anyone.

Houseboat trimaran SUN
One of the nicest places I’ve stayed

Floating house on the lake in the middle of the park
A fantastic and magical place, highly recommended, beautiful pond, breakfast bar and restaurant. There is the possibility of various activities and the spa with massages we could not do it that we did not have the costume, but we count for next time!

Delightful 1-bedroom houseboat on lake Perucac
I liked everything! Great adventure, and the hosts were ready to answer any questions 24/7)

Anchored refuge - Night aboard a sailboat!
The space was clean and tidy. Yuri sent us all the instructions before arriving to have a nice first experience on a boat and was very responsive and answered all our questions. The Marina is well secured and there is a security guard who makes regular rounds. The toilets and showers at the Marina were also clean. A little far from Lisbon city center but well served by transport and close to the airport.

Floating house Bravia
We did have a perfect time in a great place, recommend and I’ll definitely come back again.

Sagando - Sunset Floating River House
Beautiful place for stay, good host, everything was so good

Wake at the lake
Marija and her husband are the friendliest hosts we have ever had anywhere. Super responsive and would go to the moon and back to help. The place is beautiful, although some noise is to be expected from the battery on the boat. nothing we couldn't manage

Houseboat Swan's Nest
It was a wonderful 4-day getaway for two on the sensational houseboat of Michaela and Hubertus. So relaxing, so quiet, surrounded by nature. Drink coffee in the morning, look over the lake, watch birds, then swim, read…wonderful. And all in this lovingly furnished boat. We will be back!

Botel Diffuso of the Lakes
A stay in a unique place to disconnect! The hotel is spacious and well-equipped. Check-in, just like communication, was simple and flexible. The botel is very well located, we did not take the car during the stay. Restaurants are accessible in Porto Ceresio along the lake, and it is possible to take the boat to Morcote. Thanks!

Monte Cristo villa on water
Very nice place and nice people , we will come back in summer for sure !!!
