Booked this on a whim while already in Sicily and so glad we did! Unique short stay with the most welcoming & friendliest of staff. Breakfasting with other guests on deck in the sun was perfect. Would definitely return

It's a very particular hotel where you stay aboard, surrounded by the beautiful panorama on the gulf and therefore silent. At the breakfast fresh fruit and pastry is served. It's not very distant from the center. Experience that Is worth of travelling.

We were excited about staying on a boat as we owned one ourselves. The location and property were not clearly explained. The photos of the boat must be several years old! We had to walk about a 1/2 mile down the cobblestone marina to find the boat and when we arrived we were put on another boat next to this one. The property was much older and run down. The internet was very spotty! We explained to the manager we were not comfortable there and requested a refund of at least 1/2 our fee. We left right away the next morning. The manager said they would refund us! I have NOT received it yet.... The breakfast was good, We were told they were sold out yet there was only one other couple there. The idea is good but property needs a lot of updating!

Soggiorno particolarmente bello, coccolati dal rumore delle onde del mare, alla vista del porto di palermo e dalle premure ed attenzioni di un personale molto accogliente e disponibile per ogni esigenza. Camere comode, dotate di tutti i confort, si dorme benissimo. La colazione molto ricca, viene servita all'aperto nella poppa della barca e diventa un'esperienza unica. Posizione strategica: in pochissimi minuti a piedi si arriva nel cuore della città. Molto comodo il posto auto all' interno del porto. Un grazie particolare va detto all'armatore e al comandante Giuseppe per la loro disponibilità e simpatia. Da ripetere, e sicuramente la consiglio a chi, trovandosi a Palermo, desidera regalarsi un' esperienza rilassante sul mare.

Das Boot war super chick, das Zimmer sehr gross, sogar die Dusche bzw. das Bad waren in normaler Groesse. Normalerweise soll man auf Segelbooten das Duschen vermeiden bzw. Toiletten ausserhalb benutzen. War hier nicht so. Fruehstueck wurde puenktlich vorbereitet, die Leute alle sehr hilfsbereit und nett.

Excellent -even if not your usual accommodation

We were staying in Palermo only for 1 night, and when we spotted this we thought it would be great for change as it is not our normal sort of accommodation. We had certain reservations but needn't have worried. The accommodation is exactly as shown on the photos - very well maintained and immaculately clean. There was ample space in the cabins,and good public areas. The night we stayed co-incided with a big thunderstorm so we were reluctant to go out - no problem as we had pizzas delivered and we purchased wine from the boat. Breakfast was really good - fresh orange juice, bread and jams, and pastries together with excellent coffee. We would really recommend this for a bed and breakfast with a difference. A slight word of warning - we did have a problem with our SatNav finding the boat but a phone call resolved the issue.
