Family holiday

Absolutely beautiful boat with stunning scenery. It was warm and cosy and very welcoming. The only thing was we thought there would be somewhere to charge a car but it wasn't available. Plenty of places to park and charge in the town though. Perfect place to relax and unwind.

Amazing experience!!

We had a group of 12 friends staying at the VRBO, and it was amazing. The host was easy to reach and helpful, the home is beautiful, and the location is pretty convenient to hiking/exploring (+30 min to Tromso). The kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to cook delicious meals at home. We all hope to come back again in the summer!!!

Amazing and unique home

This was the perfect place for a group of friends to hang out and relax during the days, and look for Northern Lights at night. Espen was very responsive and helpful. We had the most wonderful time!

The Volda Floating Home is Magical

This property transports you to a different world. The peace and quiet is unlike anything any of us had experienced. The amenities in the home were fantastic but do not compare to the incredible location in which it all resides. It even allowed us to experience the Northern Light's from the property. It was truly a relaxing and magical time. The host Espen was super friendly, kind and responsive. He tried to offer us anything we wanted while we stayed there. He offered us some of the best whiskey I have had in a long time. Would love to stay again.

Ein Traum

Ein Traum auf dem Wasser, inmitten der Natur! Man hat seine Ruhe auf der toll eingerichteten und super ausgestatteten Fähre! Sehr netter Kontakt zum Vermieter und Tromsø ist gut erreichbar! Es blieben keine Wünsche offen

Bei dem Boot handelt es sich um eine umgebaut Fähre.

Das Schiff ist ein Traum und lässt keine Träume offen. Große Glasflächen, Fußbodenheizung und Esels Design. Ermordet viel Platz und top Zustand. Wir kochen gerne und die Küche lässt wirklich keine Wünsche offen. Alles neu, keine schlechten Düfte und keine schimmelecken. Du machst die Türe auf, kommst heim und fühlst dich wohl. Selbst beim Sturm konnten alle selig schlafen. Keiner hat gelitten. Man ist in einer ruhigen Ecke im Fjord und allein. Nur Otter und Robbe sagen guten Tag und unsäglich viele kleine Fische im kristallklaren Wasser. Beste Entscheidung und immer wieder gerne.
