“The unique experience of staying on a boat is enhanced by thoughtful touches, it seems; the host's care creates a familial atmosphere and the breakfasts are exceptional. While cabins may feel compact and steps can be steep, the peaceful marina setting is conveniently close to shops. For those seeking something different, this feels like a memorable option.”
