Overnight Houseboat Stay
Overview
Sleep on the water in Goa's most unique accommodation — a traditional houseboat with 4 air-conditioned cabins, an open-air deck, and a private chef. Board at 4 PM for evening tea and snacks as the boat glides through the mangrove-lined backwaters of the Mandovi or Sal River. Dinner is a Goan feast cooked on board. Wake to sunrise over the river, try your hand at fishing, spot kingfishers and egrets, and enjoy a leisurely breakfast before disembarking at 11 AM. An unforgettable 19-hour escape from the beach crowds.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many people can stay?
The houseboat has 4 AC cabins, each with double occupancy — so up to 8 guests total. Ideal for families or friend groups of 4–8.
Is it safe to sleep on the water?
Yes. The houseboat is anchored in calm backwaters (not the open sea), and a full crew including a captain stays on board all night.
Can I bring my own alcohol?
BYOB is welcome. The boat does not sell alcohol but you can bring your own. The crew can arrange ice and glasses.
What if it rains?
The cabins are fully enclosed and AC. The deck has a canopy. The experience runs rain or shine — rain on the backwaters is actually quite magical.
