There's nothing quite like an escape on the water — and we're not talking about a lakeside cabin .

Rather, sleeping on the water, in the form of an Airbnb houseboat rental, can be a rejuvenating retreat. They make for a socially distanced escape too, since they function as your own private, floating residence in the middle of a body of water. 

Spending a night on a yacht or sailboat is also more unique than booking a traditional hotel or vacation rental, and you can find all kinds of boats on Airbnb across the US. From the lakes of Wisconsin to California's bays, climb aboard parked vessels of all sorts, with no sailing skills required.

Fully equipped 52' houseboat in kemah, texas.

There's a private man-made "island" shared between your rental and seven others owned by the same Superhost that acts as a barbecue and recreation spot.

Restored vintage yacht in Charleston, South Carolina

airbnb yacht

Book this Charleston boat on Airbnb

This Charleston stay takes place on a Hatteras motor yacht restored with a big helping of Southern charm. The marina location is peaceful and also ideal for exploring downtown Charleston.

The boat features all-teak interiors and white sofas, as well as simple but inviting bedrooms that can easily sleep a family. The main bedroom has a Full bed and an ensuite bathroom, and the second bedroom has two single beds that are just right for kids.

What should I consider when staying on a boat?

While boats have a lot of charm, not all offer a lot of space, and sometimes bedrooms (whether staterooms or berths) can even be claustrophobic with very limited square footage. Be sure to ask the host questions about the size of the rooms if you have concerns.

Not all boats have super-small living quarters, though. Houseboats, for example, will tend to offer more room to move around than sailboats since they're meant for day-to-day living. Yachts for larger groups can also offer more space. 

Be aware that not all boats have full kitchens or showers so be sure to read up on the amenities and what's onboard versus nearby.

How do I find an Airbnb that's a boat? 

Type in your initial search criteria on the site's landing page, including the number of guests, destination, and dates (or as much of that as you know).

Then, click "more filters," and scroll down to "unique stays." You'll find a box to check that says "boats," and that will bring up the only boats to your results pages.

What is the Airbnb Enhanced Clean program?

The Airbnb Enhanced Clean is a program for hosts that involves learning and getting certified in strict cleaning protocols. These cover everything from wearing personal protective equipment and what cleaning supplies to use to how to clean between guests. All hosts are now required to follow a stringent cleaning plan outlined by Airbnb as part of the program. 

Is it safe to stay in an Airbnb?

The CDC has declared US travel safe for fully vaccinated individuals.

Vacation rentals are also considered safer than hotels by experts, especially completely contained stays like the boats we've outlined. However, it's wise to continue to monitor guidance from the CDC and WHO, and to check state and local guidelines.

Yachts also offer more privacy and flexibility than traditional accommodations. You can choose to anchor in a secluded cove or dock in a busy marina, depending on your preferences.

Finally, be respectful of the yacht and its owner. Treat the yacht as if it were your own and leave it in the same condition you found it.

AirBnB Yacht regulations and safety precautions

When renting an AirBnB Yacht, it is important to be aware of regulations and safety precautions. Make sure the yacht is up to date on all safety inspections and certifications. You should also be prepared to follow any safety protocols outlined by the owner.
