Was excited to try this unique experience
Was excited to try it this unique experience ! The view on the Saint Lawrence was incredible, the boat itself was only ok. It was big and not overly clean. I understand this was all about the boat experience but it didn’t feel as relaxing or tranquil as I expected based on…

Dear "Michbriand", Thank you for your review! I am sorry to read that your experience at Bota Bota did not meet your expetations. Spa Scandinave and Bota Bota are indeed two completely different experiences. One offering strictly inside facilities, while the others has mots of its facilities outside. We do, at Bota Bota, ask our guests to remain silent in all facilities located on the boat, while we allow conversations in the gardens section. We hope that you will give us another try!

Three hours of bliss.
So relaxing. We tried everything and also just napped in the hammock swings for a while. Bring some flip flops or you won't be allowed into the garden area, which is my favorite part. The restaurant leaves a little bit to be desired, so you might want to come after a meal.

Perfect relaxation and restoration
I loved, loved my massage and water circuit experience at Bota Bota. When you check in, they give you a key for a locker and you change into a swimsuit and the supplied bathrobe. Be sure to bring sandals with you as those are not provided. The massage treatment room had…
