Desirè Charming House Boat in the city center
A great place to stay, with great hosts... in a beautiful exciting city... what more could you ask for. Martina can be absolutely recommended... she is super nice and helpful. Best regards... PG

Private Classic Yacht in Cinque Terre
This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We gad the most extraordinary time on the yacht. The boat itself was very beautiful. We loved visiting different towns; exploring, sailing and swimming! But it was our hosts who made the trip really special. Piero and Orlando looked after us so well. They were more like extended family than crew!

Discover Sardinia sailing with crew 2025!
From the moment we met them, we knew that our trip as well as our hosts were going to be something special. We were so well taken care of by Bobo and Giusy. Captain Bobo’s knowledge of the weather/currents lead us to beautiful protected bays away from the crowds. Everywhere we visited, we were just a short swim away from a beach we could be completely alone on. Giusy must have been taken out of a 5 Star restaurant and put on Blue Magic to cook for guests. Everything we ate and drank was so delicious. She is also part mermaid, leading us in snorkeling adventures into caves and underwater tunnels, playing with jellyfish and telling us about all the creatures we saw. In the downtime we would play games together, laughing and telling stories or napping in the sun on the deck. We left with inside jokes and local secrets we’ll keep forever. This trip was truly unforgettable and I wish we never had to leave. The two of them made an incredible sailing team and even better hosts for the week.

Tai Pan amazing vintage yacht
We enjoyed beautiful days on the Tai-Pan with 2 couples. Lorenzo was a very welcoming host and captain and got us to the ferry in Porteferraio. He knows how to tell a lot about the island and the sea and the evenings we spent in the beautiful port towns. During the day, Lorenzo provided lunch on board while we anchored in beautiful bays. Really a recommendation.

Salerno Amalfi coast, possible Capri boat tour
Omg! This is the BEST and THE ONLY way to experience The Amalfi Coast! Giuseppantonio is the MOST hospitable and gracious host and took us to the most amazing places and memorable special Amalfi spots!!!! Super comfortable, very fun and just everything good! Thank you Giuseppantonio for the most amazing Amalfi experience we could’ve possibly had! Highly, highly, highly recommended!!!!

New Bavaria C45 Sail Boat 14 mtr in Cinque Terre
I can’t say enough. We stayed 2 nights and didn’t want to leave. Pietro and another skipper took us out all day via separate agreement. Very professional and knowledgeable about the area. Also the boat is docked in a small town with no tourists

Boat and Breakfast, Sailing and Holidays
We had such a great time spending a week in Ciro’s Boat. Everything went smooth, and we enjoyed every single minute of our journey. We’ll Come back again for sure! 5 star Stay! Quiet, respectful, clean, safe and organized. What more could a boat guest hope for? Ciro is a Wonderful host that is super easy and open to new experiences. He was our skipper for the entire week. We discovered beautiful places with him… Breathtaking beaches, small villages, authentic & beautiful Italy!!! Our children loved fishing & snorkeling during the day & playing Pirates at night🤩 Such an amazing experience for everyone. Ciro’s wife Assunta is a wonderful person, we enjoyed her typical Italian dishes made with fresh & local ingredients. And the smell of her Italian coffee & croissant in the morning is just great. We would definitely recommend Ciro’s experience for traveling around Italy in a sustainable & enjoyable way!!!

Waypoint Azzurra Boat & Bed & Sail
Our experience on Azzurra and Vito was magnificent. He is a true sailing lover and a true Apulian who loves his land. During our stay he made us taste typical specialties and recommended equally special places. I hope to return as soon as possible to Bari and Puglia. Recommended

Sogna in barca [all for you] - Dream on a boat
We spent 4 nights aboard the skylark at the end of our trip to Italy: An extraordinary adventure and an unprecedented experience: La vie august while being attached to the port: The must!!!! Our stay was very pleasant, the boat is beautiful and left to be lulled by the lapping of the water, the best! We were able to observe the movement of liners bringing their share of tourists and this fascinated the children. Paolo's welcome was fantastic, always in mind that everything is going well on board, checking in regularly and answering our questions very quickly. An exciting and passionate man, a rich discovery. See you soon on board again!!! A huge THANK YOU for the trust we were given. We really recommend this step to anyone who wants to have a great adventure, off the beaten track!

We spent three nights on the boat with two adults and two children aged 7 and 5. The stay exceeded our expectations in every respect. The boat was surprisingly spacious, clean, well organised and maintained. Its location was superb, very quiet in the back of the port yet with a parking spot, clean showers and toilets next to the pontoon and within walking distance of the historic town centre with its many shops and restaurants, and to typical Italian beach clubs. Marco is a very attentive and communicative host who went out of his way to make us feel at home. On the last evening, we took our own floating home on a tour with him for a sunset apero at sea, which was an experience neither of us will forget. In all, can only recommend!

Bed & boat by the sea
It was a great experience that I would love to repeat. The boat is clean and is in a quiet spot. We felt comfortable immediately and spent a pleasant night.

Tour of the Amalfi Coast
Italo is such a kind, helpful, friendly and very professional person. The stay was fantastic, the place is beautiful, comfortable and cared for in every detail. I highly recommend it to those like us who want to admire the wonderful Amalfi Coast and live an exclusive experience.

Bella Senz'anima Sailing Boat
An experience to try, but with the right spirit! It's a beautiful sailboat, not a hotel room. Paolo will welcome you and make you feel as if the boat were yours, treat it as such! We'll be back soon

Bed&boat experience
What a beautiful experience. Alessandro is a kind and generous host and a truly beautiful human. My husband and I had a wonderful time staying on his beautiful boat. There are many delicious restaurants in easy walking distance, we only wish we had more time. Such a beautiful part of the world and very accessible for exploring further afield. We dearly hope to return one day.

12-meter boat
Sitting on the front deck, watching the sunset, and having a little picnic in privacy was a really nice experience. Also, sleeping on a boat was a rare opportunity and for us the first time. So, staying at Giovanni's boat was great!

Night on an elegant Vessel
With my husband, I wanted to try to sleep on a boat, anchored safely in port. On the bridge of Angiola II, a lived and fascinating sail, we were welcomed by a comfortable living room, equipped with a spacious solarium. I went downstairs, bright with many windows and portholes, we felt like in the pirate ship, but refined pirates, with windows, boiseries, mirrors, a dining area with light sofas, inlaid table, a small well-equipped kitchen, the essential bathroom. Elia, the young man who manages the boat, was very welcoming and pointed out fascinating villages to visit nearby and great places to dine. It was fun and romantic to spend two nights and three days in this parallel world, in contact with the water, the sky, the light, the breeze, the diving of fish, and the grace away of the frogs. As long as you sit in the bow, even if the boat is anchored you feel the gentleman of the sea. Next time we will ask Elia to explain the sails and take us to the sea!

Amalfi, Capri, Pompei, Sailboat B&B
I cannot say enough good things about Antonio and the Alchemia. My wife and I spent 5 days aboard. I have experience being on a sailboat for long periods. Antonio is a skillful sailor, a great cook, and very knowledgeable about the area, the coast, and the beautiful islands. He knows the best spots for a peaceful, private beach, or great restaurants and nightlife. He knows the exactly where to take you. We could not have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend him.

Capri Sorrento along the coast
Raffaele & his son Jurij were excellent hosts, very attentive, nothing too much trouble for them. They helped book taxis for airport and day trips. We had a very memorable day to Capri with them taking us on the boat. They helped us to get the England football match on the tv and were only a text message away for anything we needed. As three ladies it was a very different but enjoyable experience staying on a boat but a little tricky getting on and off to start with however we conquered it! Would highly recommend. Thank you Raffaele & Jurij for a wonderful experience where we made many lovely memories 🥰

B&B Yacht Carloforte
Incredible getaway on the island of San Pedro, advised by some friends was a magical adventure from its inception! We've had a lot of fun between the beautiful beaches and the comfort of this large and comfortable boat. Sardinia, the boat and the owner loved her kindness and incredible beauty! I recommend 200% of living this experience to anyone wanting to try an out of the ordinary vacation😍

Sleeping on a boat in the bay
Beautiful area, clean water to swim in and enjoy the sunset. Experience in a class of its own. Small cakes for breakfast very delicious. The boat has everything you need Super music sound water with ice in the cooler... Recommended. Thank you Cristina & Luca

Aloha Jak's Boat
Perfect weekend. "Accommodation" chosen specifically for the uniqueness of the place. In addition to finding what we expected, everything was made even better by the courtesy and helpfulness of the host.

Moonlight houseboat
Very good place. Very responsive host and gives very good advice. Very nice experience in the yatch and Palermo thanks to him

Sailboat in Cala del Forte
Great welcome, the Place du Bateau is right outside the entrance, free parking for an hour. The spaces next to it are free too. It's great. The sailboat is very spacious and nice to sleep in. If you're 1.83 m, it's not the biggest I have, but it's not bad and it does the job. The setting is awesome. Everything is great, I would recommend.

A lovely place to unwind on the water, peaceful and beautiful.
