Special nights on a ship

Are you looking for an unusual accommodation and love water? Then consider booking an overnight stay on a ship. From a ship you look out over the peaceful water and immediately experience the real vacation feeling. Spending the night on a ship is very different from a standard hotel or bed and breakfast. An overnight stay on a ship is therefore often unforgettable. We have made a selection below with some of the nicest ships for an overnight stay or weekend away that can be booked through Vipio. Ship ahoy!

Are you looking for a special place to sleep for a cozy weekend away? Then this IJsselmeer cutter, built into a bed and boat, is a perfect accommodation. The ship is situated on a prime location in the Brabant capital Den Bosch. The authentic 1947 cutter was formerly used for mussel and eel fishing, among other things. The ship was professionally renovated and furnished in 2020 while maintaining its maritime atmosphere. Via a safe walkway jetty, you enter the ship at the front and descend a staircase to the cabin. In the bow of the ship you will find the bedroom with a nice cozy double bed. Next to the kitchen, which includes a stove and refrigerator, is a sitting-dining area (this can be converted into a bed for a third person). In the summer you just enjoy the lovely weather on deck.
