Cozy good vibes boat experience in Marina Del Rey. Perfect location in safe area

This is a very cozy and comfortable sailboat ⛵️ in Marina Del Rey. The area is safe with security roaming the area. Close to Venice beach. Perfect for a couple, the boat is a great vibe with everything you need. Boat really comes to life at night with all the lighting. Showers and bathrooms on premises. The boat is equipped with a Mini fridge, mini freezer, Gas and electric cooktops, coffee pot, blender and a water kettle. Boat has a heater that keeps the boat super warm wile having great airflow throughout the boat. You will love being part of the sea life here specially seeing our neighbors the sea lions. This is fun experience sleeping in the water and seeing all the stars from the bedroom. Keep in mind this is not a 5 star hotel but has everythingyou need to have a great time. Paddle boarding, kayaking and any other water sports are available in the area. Great cafes and restaurants walking distance from the boat. Please don’t rent if you are older as it can be a challenge getting in and out of a sailboat ⛵️. I will be of service so you can have a great experience in the area. Please don’t hesitate to ask! Thank you for looking.

Peaceful, fun, safe, quality time. Estevan is a sweet, laid back, friendly, helpful host totally available and genuinely cares that you are having a good time. You must understand that you are doing a little bit of camping. The bathroom is clean and safe and totally adequate and it is up the dock not in the boat. Embrace the moonlight walk and enjoy the serene marina. Listen to Sea Lions and watch Osprey and meet other nice people (or maybe you will have the whole dock to yourself) We fished off the dock for fun. We could have grilled off the back of the sailboat. We enjoyed candlelight at night and early morning kayakers (you can rent close by and enjoy that yourself). The area doesn’t have much you can easily walk to. Parking is free and easy. It is lovely.

Very cool but prepare for primitive

Let me start by saying that I loved my stay. The boat is cozy and comfortable but you need to brace yourself for some quirks:1. No bathroom on the boat. For restroom or shower, walk around 100 yards.2. The bathrooms that are available are in disrepair. They were mostly clean but were in need of plumbing repair. There seems to be construction going on to improve this, hopefully it'll be good by the time you rent.3. The checkin process (getting keys and such) is slightly convoluted.4. You really are going to wake up to the sound of sea lions in the morning.

Friendly and cozy

Owner was great! Easy communication, met us in person, even though we were running super late. Adorable set-up, my girls loved it! Fun for someone looking for something a bit different and adventurous. Being able to look up and see stars from your bed gave a “glamping” feel to the experience. So fun. We would definitely do it again. Important to note that bathroom is located on dock- but we didn’t mind. :)

Welp, if you haven’t stayed on a boat before it’s an incredible experience. However this boat needs to be cleaned up and organized. Shelves and curtains falling apart. Toilet leaking?? Bathroom is a long walk with a dingy shower. I really want to support the host but expect more at these prices.

Not as advertised.

My wife and I were excited to stay on the boat, but we arrived to find it dirty - sticky stains on the counter, short curly hair on the floor, towels and linens smelled, closest bathroom was far down the marina. The location was fine and this could've been a far better experience with some attention to details and cleaning. The novelty of a night on the boat led to my wife in tears, and a rough start to our trip in conditions we wouldn't find acceptable to pay for. Hope it improves for others.

This boat is definitely only for people that can handle the nomad lifestyle. There are no restroom facilities on the boat, but there is a community bathroom with a shower at the yacht club. The bathroom was very dirty, but I understand that isn’t the hosts fault. The boat itself could benefit from a good deep clean. Really enjoyed sleeping with the hatch over the bed open and looking at the stars. Security roams the place at night and we didn’t have to worry about leaving our swim suits/towels on top of the boat to dry while we were gone. Overall a pleasant experience

Such an amazing and unique place to stay, located close to the beach and so much peace and quiet and feel you I know we near Los Angeles. Very comfortable sleeping arrangement, I sleep in the bow of the boat and loved it. Will definitely be coming back to stay again and the host was super helpful

It wasn't what I expected

No bathroom on the boat. I don't know the last time it was cleaned. The back bedroom looked as if someone just threw the covers over the bed. If i was 30 yrs younger to get in and out of the boat !
