Gorgeous luxury houseboat Loire Romance : Unusual
Unusual accommodation exactly what we were looking for for our Christmas vacation. There would certainly be another way to moor the boat because the squeaking of the rope on the hull somewhat disrupts sleep. An excellent position facing the Château de Saumur and a well-equipped boat to have a pleasant stay on the Loire.

L'embarcadère Nantes Houseboat
A small family weekend with my partner, great view, comfortable cottages with essentials on board, welcoming and friendly host, city center and lots of activities within easy walking or public transport. Great! Thanks for the weekend!

Toue Cabané by the Canal de Bourgogne
Very nice place, we enjoyed our stay in this beautiful setting. Breakfast, bicycles available and bathing were perfect. Friendly and discreet host. I recommend it:)

Apartment on a barge 10 minutes from the city center
Great time spent with the kids in Bordeaux and in this atypical and comfortable accommodation: quality bedding, cleanliness of the premises… The boat was located close to transport and the city center 👍

Unusual floating cottage in the heart of nature...
If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with beautiful surroundings, this is the place. Our stay was perfectly relaxing and you will have to look hard to find a better host! Urs made everything very easy and he is a true Gent. So many things to like and enjoy about the place, from very peaceful early morning walks enjoying the sunrise, to the silent pitch dark nights with spectacular night sky views. I believe this is a place you could thoroughly enjoy during any season and at any time. Many thanks again Urs for making us feel at home. Kind regards Greicy, Paul and Harvey!

Floating Tiny-House "Le Robinson"
The Robinson is a great place, the access is very well indicated. The boat is super well arranged and very nice in terms of atmosphere. Nico is very responsive and warm! I would highly recommend:)

Contemporary barge in the city center
Atypical accommodation, very well arranged, very well located for getting to the city center, on foot or by tram. Sandrine and Jean-Dominique (whom we met) are responsive, friendly and welcoming. A little noisy in the evening with the proximity to the bars, but nothing mean! Great stay in the heart of Nantes!

Amazing view ! ~ luxury houseboat on the Loire~
Very nice stay along the Loire! Very comfortable beds, a great setting! Everything looks like the photos and description!

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!

Floating Dream
Unique and super nice place to stay. Simple and straightforward. Absolutely again👍

"pinball" barge, enjoy the experience on the water
Amazing perfect stay A little less for the dog who feels the houseboat move But to my son's delight Perfect amenity We'll be there

Boatmaster's accommodation on a cozy houseboat
The setting of the houseboat is amazing. Very nice quiet accommodation with all the necessities to be self-sufficient. Ideal for this rest. The host is very pleasant, responsive and full of good advice

Quasar Houseboat✨⚓💚 Heaven is here!
just great! An exceptional place to stay with a more than friendly and accommodating host. We would recommend anyone to come here once. The place alone is worth every trip! Thank you so much for the wonderful time!

Unusual night on a houseboat (2-4 people)
We felt super comfortable on Marie-Laure's houseboat. It was really special for us. The boat is kept simple but really clean and well-equipped. You have everything you need. We spent a lot of time on the sun deck: you have a lot of peace and a great view there. The area is also really fantastic: you can borrow a kayak or the like right next door and drive through the canal to the nearby lake. Supermarket, bakery, restaurants and bars are also right around the corner. The host, Marie-Laurie, was super friendly and very helpful. It was a pleasure meeting you in meeting her. All in all, really highly recommended!!

HouseBoat "La Dolce Vita"
a different kind of accommodation! You feel like a little captain on the houseboat. Everything very clean, great view of the water. The hot tub was the highlight for my teenagers! We were only there one night, but the houseboat was perfect for that. For a longer stay, I recommend a maximum of 2 people.

Botel Diffuso of the Lakes
What an exceptional place to stay for a few unforgettable days on the water! Sitting in the living room and watching the ducks and swans pass by... relaxation is easy. Highly recommended for cooler days due to the great pellet stove!

Unusual floating mobile home, Jacuzzi, terrace, Jura
We’ve had a wonderful stay at the cottage on the water - don’t expect a luxury place, it’s very simple but nothing is missing. Good thing, you can stay there with your dog 🐕 beautiful views and place in the nature - thank you Amandine and Adrien.

Barge in Lyon, quiet on the Saône
Staying in the houseboat of Florence was a unique experience. The view at the water is magical, the spaces are arranged with great taste and are very convenient. Florence and Gil welcomed us as if we were longtime friends. A very nice experience that I warmly recommend.

Houseboat By Or
We had a pleasant weekend in the Houseboat. It's really an unusual place, where we're lulled by the small waves, and the boat owners are respectful. Alexandre was super responsive every time we had contact together. Note that you must follow the instructions that Alexandre provides in the videos. If you hear the sound of the pump, it's normal, you just have to draw a little water (or flush). We recommend this place 100%. Thanks again. I'll see you.
