About this property

Houseboat Benjamin + electric boat, max. 8 person

Outstanding quiet location in Cisarska louka island - close to the heart of the Prague. We provide a small boat with electric engine (no license necessary), free parking spot in a private area, just few steps of the houseboat. For those of you, who like the touch of the nature, you can feed swans from the terrace and observe other species in their natural habitat. The view from a terrace is partly industrial, but at the night time full of calm magic.

Houseboat Benjamin has 2 bedrooms: the bigger one with one double bed + one extra foldable bed, the smaller one has one single bed + extra floor with the mattress for two. In the living room there is a comfortable foldable sofa for two person. Maximum capacity is 8 person. The kitchen is fully equipped. Netflix is available in case you want to relax at home. The bathroom is with a bathtub/shower.

Are you big group up to 14? You can check if is also available our second Houseboat Franklin, which is next to Houseboat Benjamin.

The check-in time is from 2pm, check-out time is latest at 11am.
The biggest advantage of our neighborhood is everybody can choose what he likes. You can take the boat to cruise the river and explore Prague from different perspective, relax on nearby driving range or just relax at the patio - small barbecue is available (we do not provide coal).
Just find the best date for your trip and visit our place!

Cisarska louka island is located in Prague Smichov area and you can make trip on the river by the boat (the small electric boat we provide is slow and you don't need to have a boat's license). It takes from our place about 50 min to Manes/Jazz Dock (this is the ultimate place, where you can sail without license, then is the weir and lock chambers) - please, note - officially is not allowed to moor the boat in downtown. By UBER/Bolt (8-10 EUR) or public transport (30 CZK/person) you can get in 15 min to main tourist locations. Closest tram station „Lihovar“ is about 800 meters by walk and then 15 min by tram without changing line you can get just few steps to Charles Bridge (tram station "Malostranske namesti”). Another option during season is ferry and you can cross the river from the peak of the island (about 1 km by walk), and then by walk passing the river, or continue by tram by the riverbank to the downtown.
