Firstly if you haven't been to venice before the boats are easy to (find unlike some hotels)from both train & bus station. We arrived at the boats after a ten minute Vaporetto water bus to be greeted with a glass of chilled prosseco by the hostess Nellie. We were taken down to our room which was smaller than hotel rooms... More

I have just returned from a 3 night stay on the Sarah Cruise and we had such a fantastic time that i'm already planning another trip! We went in a group of 8 friends, with ages ranging from 28 to 60 and everyone loved it. The ship is right by Sacca Fisola Vaporetto station, which is a few short stops... More

General: This is not going to be your conventional hotel stay, but if you get into it with your eyes wide open you can really enjoy this adventure and what better place to stay on the waterways then in Venice. Do not book up expecting a luxy stay in a boutique hotel if you do you will end up disappointed.... More

The Sacca Fisola water bus (Vaporetto) stop is only 50 foot steps away. The Venice Train Station (Ferrovia) is a 10-15 minutes boat ride. The staff - Nelli, Udino and their friends are... More

We stayed on the Sarah Sun boat and yes the cabin was compact but its a boat!! We stayed in one of the smaller cabins and in hindsight wished we had reserved a room with a double bed but a couple of nights sleeping in a bunk bed was not too bad at all. Nellie was as lovely as all... More
