This is an amazing way to vacation. We were looking for something new and exciting to spark our kids' interest and vacationing on this houseboat was just the trick. The location was convenient and the amenities on the boat were fabulous. I was truly impressed with the boats decor as well as the spaciousness which made our stay with 2 adults, 3 kids and a dog very comfortable. Not only would I recommend the houseboat, but we cannot wait to do it again! - Teresa

What a great week-end! The houseboat accommodations were perfect...better than a hotel. The location was amazing! It was really fun watching all the ships come through the harbor accompanied by tugboats. The marina was quiet and other boaters were very friendly. Looking forward to another stay. And by the way...the bed was more comfortable than my own!! -Michelle

"Great location, great accommodations!" Thank you for a wonderful stay in Boston. I have been going to Boston for many years and the Sleep afloat experience was by far the best overnight experience I have ever had. The boat was perfectly clean, comfortable and thoughtfully appointed. Even the location is amazing - so quiet, yet so close to Boston`s North End with its great restaurants and also within walking distance to many of the most interesting sites. Who needs a hotel when you can have a houseboat all your own? Brilliant. - Lisa

What a fantastic experience !! The houseboat far exceeded our expectations - it was spacious, extremely well appointed and very close to all of the main attractions in Boston. The host provided an excellent overview of the area and the boat in a very professionally produced booklet. How we enjoyed the evenings on the top deck and the afternoons soaking up the sunshine. We cannot rate this accomodation or host highly enough. - Helen

Great accommodations! The kids loved having their own space. The free MGH shuttle bus to the T station or the ferry to the aquarium makes getting around Boston a breeze. The bed is very comfortable! Thanks Ryan! -Diane

The sleepafloat experience was marvelous. The marina is a great place to stay in DC. The boat house is spacious clean and well provided. Do not hesitate We were really sorry to leave it behind It was a great vacation and we highly recommend it if you visit DC. - Itai

Leo was one of the greatest experiences I have ever had for a short stay in a city. It is cozy, comfortable, very clean and the owner is very responsive to your needs. Next time in Baltimore, I know where I will stay. - Metin

Such a fantastic place to stay, there is no place in Philadelphia I would rather be! The water is so peaceful and relaxing with the most incredible view of the Ben Franklin in the city. It is so easy to walk to everything you need you won't have to drive anywhere. - Kate

My friends and I stayed on the houseboat April 17-19 and absolutely LOVED it! The boat was beautifully appointed, and the coffee provided was an especially nice touch. Ryan was great with the check-in, and the marina owner was friendly and helpful, too. Having cocktails up on the sundeck was a real treat. The location is perfect -- walking distance to all the bars, restaurants and cafes of Fells Point, adjacent to a water taxi stop, grocery store close by, and we even walked to the Bay Cafe in Canton, too. I would highly recommend staying here! - Sarah

What a fun time ! We will definitely do this again. Older boat, but very comfortable with everything that you would need for a few days. Very convenient to coffee shops, restaurants and Fell's Point. Parking is safe and free. Marina neighbors were quite friendly. If you like the water and the outdoors, I would highly recommend for a relaxing get away. - Cindy T

We had a fantastic stay on the Kon Tiki. The location (Charlestown) was amazing. Very close to free shuttle service to downtown Boston and all the attractions. The boat was extremely comfortable even though the temps dipped down to 30 degrees. Thanks for a TERRIFIC week! - Darryl

OMG!!!, what a lovely place to spend a weekend. My 6 yr old son expressed it best when he said "this is totally awesome Mom!" I felt like I was in a hotel room on the water. The decor was lovely and totally not expected; All the comforts of home with the feel of a cruiseship that's docked. The sunrises and sunsets from each side of the houseboat was my favorite part. The attractions were minutes away and the people on the Marina, as well as, in the underlying areas were warm and friendly. Even their dogs, of which we saw many, were extremely tamed and friendly. We loved it so much we made a pact to do it again, my lil tyke and I. Thank you Ryan for the best mini vacation we have ever had. We look forward to seeing you soon. - Mary Anne

Even with the bad weather we had during our visit, the houseboat was one of the highlights of our trip. Very clean, all the comforts of home, and lots of extras. Easy access and directions to all the places we wanted to go. Next time will know there is no need to pack hairdryer, shampoos, etc. It is all there! -Jen

What a great way to visit Baltimore! We stayed for a weekend, choosing this wonderful houseboat over a hotel because of several things. One was the ability to make our own breakfasts, the other was the free parking, and another was that we were traveling with bikes and didn't want to traipse through a hotel lobby with them. The Delphinius (the name of the houseboat) allowed us the freedom to come and go, enjoy a great sunset on the deck, complete with drinks, and easy access to the water taxi. The bed was very comfortable and everything we needed was available on the boat. Everyone who saw my pictures was jealous. When we come back to Baltimore, we're definitely staying here! - Sarah
