Sleep on a Boat: 6 Incredible Floating B&Bs

Let us set the scene: A hot breakfast enjoyed top deck amid a hot-pink sunrise … or a night-time soak in a Jacuzzi as you watch the water lap at a pier lit with twinkling lights. Sound intriguing? We’ve trawled the thousands of listings on Vrbo.com to find perfect seaside stays. But these aren’t simply B&Bs by the beach. These inns are on motor yachts, barges and houseboats that you can actually check into for the night! So if you like your B&Bs more “oceantop” than “oceanside,” read on.

Green Turtle Floating Bed and Breakfast , Boston, Massachusetts

Green Turtle Floating Bed and Breakfast, Boston

With three different choices of accommodation (one houseboat and two motor yachts), the Green Turtle Floating Bed and Breakfast is a surprisingly large and luxurious stay at sea—well, at harbor, anyway. Situated in a marina with skyline views, the Green Turtle’s suites and yachts are filled with comforting amenities. Fresh breakfasts are delivered to guests’ doors each morning, and rooms are airy and comfortable, with soft linens and cozy comforters (no cramped cruise-ship quarters here). What better way to see a whole new side of America’s most history-packed city?

Must Do: Boston’s museums are second to none. Check out the massive, newly expanded Museum of Fine Arts and the quirky Isabella Stewart Gardner for a day filled with cultural discovery.

Houseboat Linda , Amsterdam, Netherlands

Amsterdam Canal STOCK

Amsterdam’s winding, bridge-spanned canals are among its most iconic sights. So why stay in a characterless hotel when you can stay right on the water? The Houseboat Linda, a beautiful cedar-sided canal boat, is conveniently located within walking distance of Amsterdam’s top attractions. Private bathrooms, light-filled guest rooms, cable TV, and even Wi-Fi make stays unbelievably comfortable, while the sights outside your window, of passing boats and passing bicyclists, add to the charm.

Must Do: After a day at the nearby Van Gogh Museum, hit the Leidseplein, a square filled with street performers, outdoor bars, and restaurants dishing up jazz brunches.

Sea Suites Boat and Breakfast , Saugatuck, Michigan

Sea Suites Boat & Breakfast Saugatuck, MI

Saugatuck is a summery, tourist-friendly resort town on Lake Michigan, known for its artsy shops and long stretches of lakefront beach. Get up close and personal with the water from the Sea Suites Boat and Breakfast , a 105-foot luxury yacht that comes with four private staterooms, a long sky deck, and even a resident heron. What makes the Sea Suites so well-loved? Guests call out its signature breakfast of wild berry and cream malt waffles, served with a side of morning views over the lake.

Must Do: Hit Butler Street’s shops, cafes, and restaurants or take a dune buggy ride through Saugatuck Dunes State Park and its two-and-a-half miles of perfect shoreline.

B&B Hotel Boat St. Katharine , Barcelona

Boats in Barcelona harbour

If you’ve ever wanted to experience the cultural thrills and flavors of Barcelona, we’ve found the most novel way to do so: a stay on the former naval fleet tender St. Katherine. A luxuriously renovated 80-foot motor yacht docked right in the city, her seriously elegant decks are filled with amenities from sunbeds to private air-conditioned staterooms. Enjoy tapas on the top deck before hitting the city (the St. Katherine is just ten minutes from downtown). Return each night to a multicourse dinner with sunset views, a soak in the sundeck Jacuzzi or a walk along the nearby beach.

Must Do: Aside from eating every bit from Barcelona’s buzzing gastronomic scene? Don’t miss a tour of Gaudi’s unusual buildings and a walk through Park Guell, an explosion of sound and colors.

Discover more Barcelona B&Bs >

Dream Lover Boat and Breakfast , Bradenton Beach, Florida

Dream Lover Boat and Breakfast, Bradenton Beach, Florida

Just off Anna Maria Island, your ride (and bed) awaits. The Dream Lover Boat and Breakfast, docked at Bradenton Beach, is a 56-foot nautical yacht done up with French Country flair. Compact and private, she features two cabins , a forward stateroom and the aft Captain’s Cabin, plus a top deck perfect for sunning. Aside from the relaxation opportunities, eating is the big draw on this floating B&B, with your hosts dishing up sweet banana rum pancakes and fresh croissants each morning. What a way to kick off a sunshine-filled Florida day.

Must Do: Go parasailing, dolphin watching, Jet Skiing, boating, fishing, and more. After all, Anna Maria Island is one of the top water-sports destinations in the country.

Discover more Bradenton Beach B&Bs >

Petite Reine , Arles, France

Canal bridge, Arles STOCK

Provence is a magical place, and among its many sights and Mediterranean flavors, Arles stands out for its Roman ruins and Rhones-side cafes. Stay near the action in the Petite Reine, an old barge converted into an inn and anchored in the Arles Canal at Fos. Romantic air-conditioned lofts are filled with bohemian charm and brass portholes, sleigh beds and reclaimed wood. Best of all, the Petite Reine is just minutes from Van Gogh’s famous scenes from Starry Night.

Must Do: Arles’ Roman amphitheater is remarkably well preserved, as are the city’s abbey and cloisters. Embark on some historical exploration, then visit the sprawling Saturday market.

  • Sleeping on a Boat: The Ultimate Overnight Boating Guide
  • Sailing Hub
  • Sailing Tips

Have you ever been sleeping on a boat before? And we don't mean just a casual nap in the sun. When you charter a yacht for your holiday getaway, you can skip the overcrowded and overpriced hotels by spending the night aboard your very own home-at-sea. 

Not sure if spending the night on a boat is really your style? When you book a private yacht charter, there are enough different choices to suit everyone's unique style of travel—from elegant, five-star accommodations to casual, do-it-yourself adventure. 

Get ready for sleeping on a yacht rental overnight with our Ultimate Overnight Boating Guide: 

Why sleep aboard? 

How to sleep on a boat, what our overnight yacht rentals can offer you.

If it's your first time considering sleeping on a boat overnight, then you might be wary of getting started. We get it. But whether you're looking for a boat for camping or a boat for luxuriating between beach trips, the best overnight accommodations is your yacht. Here's why: 

Get an early start to your day

If you're spending the night in a hotel, then setting sail early in the morning means you have to hit the ground running. You've got to wake up early enough to assemble your gear at the hotel and spend time physically getting to the docks—all before the rest of the crowds do. 

But when you spend the night aboard your boat, you're ready to go from the moment you get out of bed. This spells less time wasted trying to get to your destination and more time on the open water enjoying your holiday. 

Enjoy more amenities at a cheaper price

Sleeping on a boat overnight doesn’t just save you time—it also saves you money! After all, you're already chartering a boat for your holiday, so why add additional hotel (and travel) fees to the mix? 

And while spending the night aboard your yacht is cheaper than staying in a hotel, it can actually be more luxurious. Why shell out the cash for a hotel room with a waterfront view when you can enjoy your own on-the-water view from your private yacht charter? 

Settle in with all your luggage

With views that can't be beat and a nonexistent hotel bill, sleeping on a yacht rental overnight is one of the biggest insider tips from pro-travelers—and at the end of the day, it’s just more comfortable, too. 

As you sail from one hot locale to the next, why would you want to keep unpacking and packing your bags at every different hotel you have to check into? When you decide to sleep on your yacht overnight, you can fully settle in for your holiday. This means you won't have to worry about forgetting anything in hotels, and you won't have to waste time going back and forth between hotels and your yacht. Instead, you can truly get comfortable and make your cabin your cozy home-away-from-home for your holiday. 

Escape loud neighbors and street noise

Perhaps the number one reason for sleeping on a boat during your holiday is to skip out on the crowds, the loud neighbors, and the street noise.

When you charter your own yacht, you can truly enjoy a tranquil getaway, where the gentle sound of the waves can lull you to sleep at night—not your annoying neighbors in the hotel who won’t stop partying. For a relaxing holiday that's peaceful and calm, sleeping aboard your boat can't be beat. 

Sold on spending the night sleeping on your yacht rental? Get ready for a good night's sleep with our boat camping tips:

Make sure you're well anchored

It might go without saying, but if you're going to be sleeping on a boat overnight, make sure that you're well anchored before you're ready to get under the covers, so you don't drift during the night. (No matter how adventurous you are, no one wants to wake up the next morning somewhere unknown out at sea!)

Don't forget extra layers

Even if you're sailing in a warm climate, like the Mediterranean or the Caribbean, it's a good idea to bring some extra layers with you. At night, your body temperature will naturally drop, which can make you feel cold while sleeping, so make sure you pack an extra sweater and socks to stay cozy at night. 

If it's your first time sleeping on a boat, you may be feeling a little uneasy, as it's a new and unusual experience. Try to remember that sleeping on a boat is just like sleeping anywhere else. It also helps to maintain your normal pre-sleep routine (like having a cup of tea, reading, etc.), so your body knows it's time to get to sleep. 

We also recommend bringing earplugs in case the splashing water or creakings from the boat distract you at night.

At Yacht4less, we know not everyone's idea of a dream holiday is the same, which is why we offer a host of different yachts for charter, so you can find the perfect match for your tip. Here's what some of our yacht rentals can offer you:

Fully-crewed yacht

Looking for five-star luxury? We deliver with a fully-crewed yacht . 

This kind of charter comes staffed with a captain, hostess, and private chef. Imagine waking up after spending the night on your boat with a gourmet breakfast prepared to your liking by a private chef. No need to go to a restaurant—instead, enjoy your custom meal on the deck of your private boat with the view of the sunrise.

By the cabin

Want the feel of that five-star luxury with a smaller price tag? We have options. Charter a yacht by the cabin . 

With a by-the-cabin yacht charter, you're booking a cabin aboard a yacht, much like booking a room in a hotel or on a cruise ship. You'll still enjoy a private room and bathroom, and you'll have free range of the common spaces, such as the kitchen, living room, and deck. This is also a great choice for those who like the more social atmosphere of a hotel. 

Are you really looking for a boat for camping? It's time to go bareboat ! 

Bareboat is for those who want to be the captain of their own vessel, chartering a fully-equipped yacht to sail without the assistance of a skipper. If you're an experienced sailor, this is a great way to enjoy maximum freedom and privacy while you spend the night aboard a private yacht. 

Need something a little more stripped down, but don't know how to sail? Choose a skippered yacht charter . 

With a skippered yacht, you can enjoy sailing and sleeping aboard a boat stress-free with a private skipper who's at the helm to take care of the legwork. An added bonus is that you can stay at unique anchorages and bays that you wouldn't have access to on a bareboat, as they're only open to a crew with expertise. 

Sleeping on a yacht rental overnight takes a sailing holiday to the next level.

Luxury Yacht Hotels

For many, spending a night on a yacht is a refreshing break from the norm. The breeze is fresh, views are stunning, and you get to experience various destinations from a unique perspective. While all of this can be enjoyed from most boats, it is all the more worthwhile aboard a luxury yacht hotel. 

On board a yacht hotel, you are able to enjoy the freedom of the ocean, as well as the elegance and comfort of a  luxury resort  or hotel. It also offers a sense of tranquility and exclusivity as the yachts are often docked in a secluded location. 

Around the world, there are a number of lovely accommodations on the sea. From a two-bedroom private yacht hotel to a high-end superyacht, we will highlight some of our best picks.   

So, grab your flip-flops and your sunnies and get ready for an adventure like no other.

Sail Away Catamarans

Overnight in Annapolis or Saint Michaels

There’s nothing quite like sleeping and waking up aboard a gently rocking boat.

Sailing aboard a luxury catamaran can be wonderful in and of itself. But sleeping and waking up aboard one can be absolutely magical. One of our captains can take you out sailing all day on the Chesapeake Bay and then catch a mooring ball in historic Annapolis or St. Michaels. The captain will get you secured for the night and then catch the water taxi leaving the boat to you and your group to enjoy privately. Catch the water taxi into town to enjoy a restaurant and some cocktails and then taxi back out to your catamaran to retreat for the night. The captain will arrive the next morning to take you sailing for the day and return back to our docks.

What a beautiful way to start our girls night out, cruising around Sydney Harbour drinking champagne, dancing and hanging with my besties. Thanks Marty for a truly memorable experience on board the coolest cruiser on the harbour.

Nicholas Hall

Wow!! What a way to see the Harbour and surrounds. Our group of friends were going to celebrate an important birthday in a bar as usual but fortunately one of our crew decided we should do something a little more special this time. We booked the Sydney Secret Beaches Tour and what a fantastic time we had. The ruggedly handsome and knowledgeable Captain Marty took us on a “deck”-adent afternoon of cruising, enjoying a few drinks whilst we soaked in the sights and learnt plenty about this beautiful harbour, getting up close to places we had long admired from a distance and visiting coves we never knew existed. What a great day. Thank you Captain Marty.

Lisa Kaplan

Such an amazing evening spent with friends on "Captain Marty's" luxury cruiser! We booked the Sunset Cruise as our dearest friend was visiting from the U.K. and we thought it would be fabulous to travel to dinner taking in the stunning scenery on Sydney Harbour! Sitting on this beautifully crafted timber boat, If it wasn't for the vast water one might think you were cruising the canals of Venice! Super comfortable & a great host. Thank you Marty, we look forward to our next adventure with you!

Mitchell Day

We had a great afternoon and evening out on the boat. The whole experience was great, starting with meeting the captain and getting the first view of the boat - what a classic. We got to cruise around the inner harbour while the captain provided us with some great stories about Sydney and it’s waterways. We had a great time and I would highly recommend this experience to both Sydneysiders and visitors to Sydney.

Tameem Aswad

Perfect in every way!

The cost of renting a pontoon boat depends on the size, location, and rental time of the boat. Prices can range anywhere from $200 for a half-day rental or just under a $1,000 for longer rentals.

How much does it cost to charter a yacht?

The cost to charter a yacht varies depending on the boat size and the length of the charter. Prices typically range from less than $1,000 to $5,000 plus if you’re wanting to charter the yacht overnight.

How much does it cost to rent a boat for the day?

The cost of renting a boat for the day on average ranges from $200 to $1200. The cost to rent a boat varies depending on the size of the boat and the length of time that you will be using the boat.

How does the boat insurance work?

Boat insurance typically covers loss caused by things such as fire, sinking, storms, and collisions. The extent of the coverage varies depending on the policy.

Do I need my own insurance to rent a boat?

You do not need boat insurance when renting with Boatsetter. Coverage is provided under the Peer-to-Peer Boat Rental Policy, which is underwritten by GEICO Marine Insurance Company. The policy was written from the ground up as a stand-alone recreational boat rental insurance policy covering the period of time that the boat is being rented and is available for all non-commercially insured boats.

Does Boatsetter screen renters?

Yes. We use a system called Cognito to ensure that payment information matches the renter's identity. We also require renters taking out a captained boat to be at least 18 years old and on a bareboat to be at least 25 years old.

Is listing my boat on Boatsetter free?

Yes! Listing a boat is completely free. We only take a commission when your boat is rented. We only make money when you do!

What if I'm not comfortable having a renter drive my boat?

If you are not comfortable having a renter drive your boat, we have an expansive network of licensed and experienced captains. Once your boat is listed, you can filter through our network of captains and favorite captains in your area that you would like to operate your boat.

Stay on a luxury yacht…for less than £200

Beds on board: a new way to stay.

Modern families are an intrepid bunch, especially when it comes to our holidays. Looking beyond traditional hotels and b&bs, we’re g lamping in yurts, sleeping in tree houses and shacking up in shepherd’s huts.  Thanks to the likes of Airbnb and Home Swap, we’re even holidaying in each other’s homes.

Now, with Beds on Board, you can spend the night on a luxury yacht, for less than the  price of a Travelodge. But there’ll be no sailing off into the sunset – all boats are safely moored in marinas and moving them is strictly against the rules.

Beds on Board’s Mark Seamer tells me how it all began. In 2015, founder Tim Ludlow was at a busy regatta in Palma, Mallorca, struggling to find accommodation. All the hotels in town were fully booked and there was not a room to be had, but as Tim strolled along the waterfront, he noticed that most of the yachts in the marina were empty. That was the lightbulb moment.

At any given time 90% of yachts in UK marinas are empty, Mark explains, so  Beds on Board was created to connect their owners with accommodation seekers. ‘It’s essentially Airbnb for boats’, he says.

It’s such a good idea and I can’t wait to take up Mark’s invitation to try it for myself. 

beds-on-board-amana-full-boat-view

She’ll do nicely. Amana, a Sunseeker yacht

How it works

The booking process is refreshingly simple. I sign up to the website, choose my required dates, destination and number of guests, and I’m given a selection of fancy boats to choose from. I select a gorgeous two-bedroom yacht called Amana, which the site tells me is a Sunseeker Camargue 50. She’s moored in Lymington Yacht Haven, in the desirable New Forest area. 

It’s not as pricey as you might expect. In March, Amana costs £195 a night, which is less than some hotels in the area. 

As bonkers as it sounds, staying on a yacht can be an economical choice for families, given that most have at least two bedrooms and so work out cheaper than checking into multiple hotel rooms.

Once I’ve booked, the boat owner has 48 hours to accept or reject my reservation. Later that day,  I’m contacted by Jason, the friendly owner of Amana. He’s incredibly welcoming and happy to answer all my questions.

‘Can I bring my dog?’ I ask, wincing as I scroll through photos of Amana’s soft, white leather interiors. ‘Of course!’ Jason responds, to my delight. That evening, I flounce into the living room and  announce to my husband that we’re all off to stay on a yacht. 

beds-on-board-amana-boat

Amana in the early evening light

Just like Airbnb, when guests arrive at the start of their stay, they’re met either by the boat owner or by his or her representative.  My husband and I are met by Jason’s rep, the charming Samantha, at Lymington Yacht Haven. Check-in starts at 3pm and Amana is bathed in golden afternoon light when we first step onboard.

I’m struck by how immaculate she is and silently congratulate myself for packing a dog towel.  The deck is spotless and we’re welcomed by a vase of fresh daffodils and bottle of wine in an ice bucket. I know we’re going to love it here. There’s even a packet of Captain Jack dog biscuits for our four-legged companion, Flint. 

Inside, the walnut interiors glisten and plump towels are waiting on our bed. There’s a kitchen (galley in boat-speak) with all mod-cons, including a hob, microwave and to my husband’s delight, a Nespreso coffee machine.

amana-boat-interier-no-filter-beds-on-board

A very warm welcome

A white leather sofa stretches the length of the living room and there’s a fold-out dining table. At either end of the boat are two en-suite bedrooms with showers.

Samantha gives us the lowdown on how everything works, but since we won’t be sailing anywhere, there’s nothing to be intimidated by. It’s mostly a case of getting to grips with the heating and making sure we know where the bottle opener is.

Jason’s detailed welcome pack invites us to help ourselves to tea and coffee. He’s even left us beer and wine, along with an honesty tin (which is so honest that there’s already money in there when we arrive).

beds-on-board-amana-flint-at-wheel

Captain Flint at the helm (just pretending of course – sailing isn’t allowed!)

A taste of the high-life

Even without the prospect of a cruise, being on the boat is exciting. Reclining on deck with a glass of something cold as the sun sets over the water, we feel like interlopers in a world we’d never normally have access to. A boat like this would cost thousands to charter, but here we are – and for tonight, it’s all ours.

Marinas, by their very nature, are in pretty places with great restaurants, and the beauty of a Beds on Board stay is that you’re never far from a scenic waterfront stroll or great evening out.

That being said, a night onboard can be just as fun as going out. Unlike a hotel room, you can cook for yourselves and enjoy a meal on deck watched by expectant seagulls, or cuddle up in-front of a film as the sea gently rocks you to sleep (Amana has Sky and a hefty DVD collection).

beds-on-board-amana-main-cabin-bedroom

Amana’s cosy main cabin

Lymington Yacht Haven neighbours a picturesque nature reserve. When we eventually tear ourselves away from the boat, we walk Flint along the seawall, looking down on ducks bobbing about in the salt marshes. A footpath called Solent Way runs from the marina all the way to Milford on Sea, hugging the coast. It’s a pretty five mile walk, but we only manage one or two, before our wimpy city dog starts dragging his feet.

We arrived in Lymington under a warm sun, but this being March in England, by the time we go to bed the wind is howling and rain thunders down on the roof. But we’re on a big boat, so a storm is thrilling! There’s something deliciously comforting about snuggling under a heavy duvet as the weather rages outside.

The next morning we awake to pale sunlight streaming in through the portholes, seagulls cawing softly and a text from boat owner Jason. He wants to know if we slept alright and survived the weather. ‘Do you have everything you need?’, he asks. Jason tells us to stay as long as want, even though check-out is officially at 11am.

amy-by-sea-in-lymington

Staying on Amana is like spending the night in a luxury hotel, with the personal touches of a family-run b&b. Even though we never meet Jason in person, I’ve rarely stayed anywhere where I’ve felt so looked after.

Unsurprisingly, this new accommodation trend  is catching on and Beds on Board now has boats in over 50 countries.  It’s impressive stuff from such a young company and Mark is excited about the future. ‘Our aim is to offer travellers a million new beds around the world, without doing a single bit of construction.’

Back in London, I brag to friends about our weekend on a yacht (for under £200) and they all react in the same way – what a brilliant idea! They all say they’re going to try it. After all, w ho wouldn’t want to enjoy the glorious yachting lifestyle without the responsibility or the price tag that go with it?

Beds on Board: the lowdown 

  • Search bedsonboard.com for a boat in the place you’re visiting

Our Romantic Overnight Sydney Harbour Yacht Stay

yacht night stay

If you are looking to do something special for your partner, a romantic Sydney Harbour Yacht stay is pretty hard to beat. As far as memorable experiences in Sydney go, this has to be at the top of the list!

Spending the night on Sydney Harbour

We recently had our first real sailing experience when Sydney By Sail invited us to check out their Platinum Romance B&B package . The timing could not have been better as our 15th wedding anniversary was coming up, and I could not think of a more romantic way to spend it.

Sydney Harbour is universally considered one of the most beautiful locations of the world. Spending the night and enjoying a harbour sunset and sunrise is something we will remember forever!

Jumping on board

Sydney By Sail is conveniently located at the Australian Maritime Museum Wharf, just a couple of minutes’ walk from the light rail and Darling Harbour parking garages.

yacht night stay

They have several yachts, and today we are on the Elan Impression 45.1, their newest; it’s an impressive vessel with three double beds and two bathrooms! Plenty of room to bring your family or friends, but today it’s all for us!

yacht night stay

This 3-hour harbour sail was to be our first sailing experience in a yacht, and when we awoke that morning to favourable weather, we were thrilled. It had been raining solidly for more than a week, and we expected that poor weather might see our romantic getaway postponed.

yacht night stay

Skipper Mike welcomed us on board and gave us a quick safety briefing and then a tour of the yacht. It’s surprising how much space there is below the deck.

yacht night stay

We were amazed at how spacious the kitchen and dining space was. The door in the bow was the main bedroom and a separate toilet and shower. At the stern another bathroom and two bedrooms (small double size).

Let’s get sailing

Under sunny blue skies, we made our way out of Darling Harbour, past Barangaroo and under the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We have made this trip dozens of times on a ferry and several harbour cruises, but this is our first time on a vessel this small and it’s a completely unique feeling.

yacht night stay

Approaching the Sydney Opera House, it was time to put the sail up and shut down the motor as we coasted past Farm Cove and made our way towards Shark Island.

We are sailing on a Wednesday, a popular day for recreational sailing on the harbour, and there is plenty of activity on the water. We enjoy watching the yacht’s race around their course just off Clark Island; Mike explained what looked like chaos to us – i.e. they are not really going to crash lol, it just looks like it!

We sailed past Bradley’s Head and Sydney Harbour National Park, making our way across the heads, stopping short of Manly Cove because the winds had picked up and we may not have made good time back to our evening stopover.

yacht night stay

The million-dollar question we had before heading out today was, would either of us feel seasick. Thankfully, after some pretty horrible floods and rain in the week before, we had been gifted a very calm day with enough wind for the sails but not enough to make us queasy.

Sadly, the harbour was not it’s usual sparkling blue but a muddy tone because of the floods.

 Charles on the bow of Sydney Harbour Yacht Stay

It took about 30 minutes to gain our sea legs and confidence to make our way to the bow, where we took the opportunity to laze about on the front of the deck to enjoy the view. You can however choose to relax in the seating at the stern with the drinks supply and chat with your skipper while he works.

yacht night stay

By the time we were heading to our secluded bay to drop anchor, the sun was setting.

What’s including in your Yacht sleepover?

The Platinum Romance Package includes a 3-hour sail, snacks, dinner and delicious dessert treats. You can choose a continental breakfast or supplies to cook your own bacon and egg spread for the morning.

yacht night stay

There is a range of platters, including an antipasto, cold cuts or seafood plate. A range of salads complements these; we went with a seared tuna and a falafel. For dessert, there was chocolate coated strawberries, brownies, macaroons and some Lindt chocolate.

They stock the fridge with juice and water. It’s BYO alcohol, so be sure to pack some Champagne for sunset and perhaps a nice red to drink before bed.

An impressive sound system allowed us to stream our favourite music from our devices; the only side effect was a flat battery just before dark, so don’t forget your charger.

yacht night stay

If you tend to sleep late, set your alarm for sunrise and pop up on deck to enjoy it. If you are not ready to embrace the day, you can always pop back under the deck for another snooze!

What to pack for your sleepover

You don’t need to pack much for your overnight stay, pretty much everything was thought of right down to some late-night chocolates in the bedroom! I recommend a shawl or jacket for after sunset.

I would suggest you bring:

  • Appropriate footwear – leave the heels at home – white sole shoes are best, but we took ours off as soon as we boarded.
  • Swimmers in the warmer months – if you are brave enough to take a dip in the harbour.
  • Plenty of your favourite beverages – I would have liked some sparkling water included.
  • a book or deck of cards
  • a spare battery pack for your phone – you will want to snap a lot of pics
  • Earplugs if you find it hard to sleep with gentle water lapping the side of the boat

Anything we would change?

For us, the only thing we would have changed was better on deck lighting at night. It was such a lovely evening, and we were keen to play cards after dinner, but the only lighting was at floor level.

 Morning on our Sydney Harbour Yacht Stay

We mentioned this to the crew on pick up the next day, and they had not realised, having only recently taken delivery of the boat, so I expect they will add some lanterns or address this soon.

So do we recommend this overnight Sydney Harbour Yacht Stay?

You bet we do! While Sydney Harbour offers quite a few romantic getaway options, I think this has to be one of the more unique and one I would highly recommend to anyone looking to commemorate a special occasion, a marriage proposal or just a wonderful escape.

If one night just isn’t enough, learn more about Yacht Share with Sydney by Sail and enjoy a minimum of 33 days a year with a 10% share in a luxury yacht .

Dozens of Rohingya Muslim refugees rescued in Indonesia after night on capsized boat

An Indonesian search and rescue ship on Thursday located a capsized wooden boat that had been carrying dozens of Rohingya Muslim refugees and began pulling survivors who had been standing on its hull to safety.

An AP photographer aboard the rescue ship said 10 people had been taken aboard local fishing boats, and the Indonesian craft was saving another 59.

Men, women and children, weak and soaked from the night’s rain, wept as the rescue operation got underway, and people were taken aboard a rubber dinghy to the rescue boat.

It was unclear how many refugees were aboard the small craft when it capsized off Indonesia’s northernmost coast on Wednesday, with six survivors initially rescued by local fishermen estimated between 60 and 100 people.

It was unclear whether all managed to cling to the capsized craft overnight or whether some had drowned.

Indonesia’s search and rescue team only left Banda Aceh city in the evening on Wednesday, many hours after the boat capsized.

They initially had difficulty locating the boat in the choppy waters off the coast.

It finally found the boat and the survivors about midday on Thursday.

Rohingya refugees board a National Search and Rescue Agency vessel after they were rescued from their capsized boat in waters some 16 nautical miles off west Aceh on March 21, 2024.

Amiruddin, a tribal fishing community leader in Aceh Barat district, said those rescued indicated that the boat was sailing east when it started leaking.

Then, strong currents pushed it toward the west of Aceh. The six said others were still trying to survive on the capsized craft.

About 740,000 Rohingya were resettled in Bangladesh to escape the brutal counterinsurgency campaign by security forces in their homeland of Myanmar .

Thousands have been trying to flee overcrowded camps in Bangladesh to neighboring countries, with Indonesia seeing a spike in refugee numbers since November, which prompted it to call on the international community for help.

Rohingya arriving in Aceh face some hostility from some fellow Muslims.

Indonesia, like Thailand and Malaysia, is not a signatory to the United Nations’ 1951 Refugee Convention outlining their legal protections, and so is not obligated to accept them. However, they have so far provided temporary shelter to refugees in distress.

Last year, nearly 4,500 Rohingya — two-thirds of them women and children — fled their homeland of Myanmar and the refugee camps in neighboring Bangladesh by boat, the United Nations refugee agency reported.

Of those, 569 died or went missing while crossing the Bay of Bengal and Andaman Sea, the highest death toll since 2014.

Returning safely to Myanmar is virtually impossible because the military that attacked them overthrew Myanmar’s democratically elected government in 2021.

No country has offered them any large-scale resettlement opportunities.

MEULABOH, Indonesia (AP) — An Indonesian search and rescue ship on Thursday located a capsized wooden boat that had been carrying dozens of Rohingya Muslim refugees, and began pulling survivors who had been standing on its hull to safety.

An AP photographer aboard the rescue ship said 10 people had been taken aboard local fishing boats and another 59 were being saved by the Indonesian craft.

Men, women and children, weak and soaked from the night’s rain, wept as the rescue operation got underway and people were taken aboard a rubber dinghy to the rescue boat.

There were contradictory reports about whether anyone had died in the accident, with survivors saying many who had been aboard when the boat departed from Bangladesh were still unaccounted for, but authorities insisted everyone had been rescued.

“We have examined all 69 Rohingya that we rescued and from our examination, there was no information from them about any deaths,” Fathur, a rescue officer who gave only one name, told reporters. “We managed to evacuate all 69 people and no one stated that anyone had died.”

With the addition of six Rohingya who were rescued by private fishing boats that were at the scene well before authorities launched the official rescue mission, a total of 75 people from the boat were saved.

But Samira, a 17-year-old who was among the refugees from the Kutupalong camp in Bangladesh who had been traveling to Malaysia, said there had been 146 people on board, raising the prospect that 71 could still be missing at sea.

She said the boat began foundering three days ago and then capsized on Wednesday, adding that her nephew was among those unaccounted for.

“All of us are very sad,” she said. “We are very hungry and weak.”

When fishing vessels reached the scene on Wednesday, desperate refugees clamored aboard one of the boats, overloading it and causing it to also capsize. It was not immediately clear what happened to the crew on board.

After being informed about the refugees in need of help by the fishermen Wednesday morning, an official search and rescue team set off from Banda Aceh city on Wednesday evening. They didn’t reach the area of the accident until early in the morning and could not initially locate the capsized boat.

When they came upon it midday Thursday, they found the refugees on its hull, desperate for help.

They rescued 42 men, 18 women and nine children and took some to a temporary shelter in the Aceh Besar district and others to a local hospital for treatment.

Amiruddin, a tribal fishing community leader in Aceh Barat district, said those rescued indicated that the boat was sailing east when it started leaking and then strong currents pushed it toward the west of Aceh.

About 740,000 Rohingya fled earlier to Bangladesh to escape a brutal counterinsurgency campaign by security forces in their homeland of Myanmar.

Thousands have been trying to flee overcrowded camps in Bangladesh to neighboring countries, with Indonesia seeing a spike in refugee numbers since November which prompted it to call on the international community for help. Rohingya arriving in Aceh face some hostility from some fellow Muslims.
