unique experience

limited privacy

highway closure

The unique experience aboard the tugboat is unforgettable.

During my stay, I felt quite uncomfortable with the layout, as sharing bathrooms with other guests felt invasive. The rooms were smaller than expected, and the lack of privacy was disappointing. Additionally, the highway closure made access quite difficult, further detracting from my experience.

outrageous rate

no refunds

The rate I paid for a "deluxe" room was an outrageous $400, consider it "deluxe" only if you enjoy cramped spaces. I expected a partial refund when I couldn't make it due to the highway being closed, but they didn't care about my 1400km drive. I honestly almost gave a good review, but just couldn't.

delicious breakfast

cozy room

wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

The room was cozy with a great view. Breakfast was out of this world. I loved the Moroccan flavors. The tugboat ambiance made it extra special. Shared bathrooms were a little awkward, but not a big deal. I enjoyed the sun on the terrace and the friendly vibe overall.

delicious dinner

Definitely recommend for foodie lovers

Dinner was mind-blowing,, Bouchra's Moroccan feast left us speechless. We enjoyed every bite, especially the freshly caught Sockeye salmon cooked to perfection.

It wasn't exactly inexpensive,,, but the experience made it worthwhile.

The location was fantastic. right on the water with a stunning view in all directions. Daniel and Bouchra made me feel very welcome, and the Moroccan breakfast was delicious and quite unusual. The bunk bed was quirky. definitely adds to the experience.

Nothing, all excellent.

Unique tugboat stay!

This place is so much fun! The atmosphere is super friendly, and we all sang together in the evenings. I loved the Moroccan breakfasts. they were different and really tasty. The rooms are cozy, but it does feel a bit cramped. Also, sharing bathrooms can be a bit awkward sometimes.

Does it deliver?

The warm hospitality from the hosts, Bouchra and Daniel, and the delicious, locally sourced breakfasts made my stay unforgettable! So cozy enjoying the ambiance aboard this unique tugboat while playing cards on a rain-soaked evening.

The cabins were small and lacked privacy, sharing bathrooms with other guests felt uncomfortable at times, making it challenging to relax fully.
