Welcome aboard Mystic's only Airbnb yacht! Mystic has a rich and storied history with the boating and shipping industries, and we thought that creating an on-water Airbnb experience would be a unique and fun way to visit our slice of heaven.

Our location in the heart of Downtown Mystic, on the river, gives our guests easy access to all that Mystic has to offer (without the hassle of trying to find parking)!

For our NFL fans - we just added NFL Sunday Ticket to our YouTube subscription!

Welcome aboard Mystic's only Airbnb yacht! Mystic has a rich and storied history with the boating and shipping industries, and we thought that creating an on-water Airbnb experience would be a unique and fun way to visit our slice of heaven.

Our location on the river in the heart of Downtown Mystic gives our guests easy access to all that Mystic has to offer.

The space
The yacht is a 1986 DeFever that contains three berths (sleeping six), one and a half heads (bathrooms for the landlubbers), a full galley kitchen with a dining nook, plenty of deck space for soaking up the sun, and two salons for relaxing or watching a movie. For those who want to visit during the winter, have no fear—Mystic Grace is heated and makes for a cozy getaway.

The aft salon features sliding doors to the aft deck, as well as access the comfortably outfitted bridge. This salon has two pull-out couches for the ultimate in comfortable lounging on this level along with a tv and a small refrigerator for creating a great space to gather. Below deck the Main Salon is equipped for the comfort and enjoyment of our guests with a tv, a pull out couch and an old school stereo system. We've also included a portable Bluetooth speaker so you can rock out anywhere on board.

The forward cabin features a full-sized bed, as well as a half bath. As you move aft you will find the port side bunk room that has two single beds, a desk that is perfect for writing postcards, as well as the ironing board hidden in the closet in case you need to spiff up your outfits. Moving along you will come to the master stateroom with a queen-sized bed, the full bath, smart tv, and a vanity/desk.

The yacht also has a brand-new heating and air conditioning system, fully prepared to meet your comfort needs.

As with all yachts, you will want to be aware that the passage/hallways and doors are very narrow, so be prepared to do a little side shimmy when passing through. For those of taller stature, you will find the sleeping cabins and aft hallway ceilings a little lower than standard heights, just be aware so you don't whack your noggin. The stairs (while not many) are slightly steeper than home stairs, but there are handrails at the ready! The sleeping berths are a bit higher than you will find at home, this is due to boats utilizing any available space for storage and mechanical needs. What does this mean for our guests? You will find a little step stool in the aft room to aid you in vaulting to your slumber!

Guest access
Mystic Grace is docked at the Mystic Downtown Marina, which allows you to park there for your stay. This will come in handy as we are an easy stroll to all the wonders that Downtown Mystic has to offer, which means parking is usually a challenge.

Other things to note:
Please note that while this yacht is seaworthy, it does not leave the dock.

You will be climbing stairs, both to get onto Mystic Grace as well as negotiating between levels on the vessel and boat stairs are slightly steeper and narrower than you would find in a land dwelling.

The minimum age for overnight guests is 13.

In accordance with USCG regulations any children 12 and under must be wearing a lift jacket anytime they are on any of the outside decks of the vessel. Life jackets are on board for adults only; children's life jackets would need to be supplied by the guest.

There are no parties or events allowed onboard the vessel.

Pets are not allowed on board. Service animals are allowed but they may not be left alone on the vessel at any time or be on the furniture.
