Het sanitair bevindt zich apart van het verblijf en is basic, maar erg netjes. De boot zelf kan misschien hier en daar wat opknapwerk gebruiken, vooral met name het keukentje: servies en bestek is een allegaartje (en niet echt zuiver bij aankomst) en de toestellen zijn echt wel aan vervanging toe! Eigenaar zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam. We hebben een zeer aangenaam en ontspannen verblijf gehad! ##### Els V. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Cottages Annapolis Valley](https://www.expedia.ca/Annapolis-Valley-Cottages.d3000655564-aaCottages.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Golf Hotels in Cayo Santa Maria](https://www.expedia.ca/Cayo-Santa-Maria-Hotels-Golf-Hotel.0-0-d602893-tGolfHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Trump International Hotel & Tower New York](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Trump-International-Hotel-Tower-New-York.h40338.Hotel-Information) > > [Killington Grand Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Killington-Hotels-Killington-Grand-Hotel.h693673.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Liege Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Grace-Hollogne-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Liege-Airport.h1631420.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Artemide](https://www.expedia.ca/Rome-Hotels-Hotel-Artemide.h45856.Hotel-Information) > > [The Verb Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-The-Verb-Hotel.h25280.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Hot Tubs in Barrie](https://www.expedia.ca/Barrie-Hotels-Hotels-With-Hot-Tubs.0-0-d6692-tHotelsWithHotTubs.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Spend the night in a private spa for couples with sauna hammam jaccuzi](https://www.expedia.ca/Mouscron-Hotels-Spend-The-Night-In-A-Private-Spa-For-Couples-With-Sauna-Steam-Room-Jaccuzi.h37027293.Hotel-Information) > > [Staybridge Suites Detroit-Utica by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Detroit-Hotels-Staybridge-Suites-Detroit-Utica.h788764.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Ghana](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Ghana-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d65-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Beach Hotel in Sandbanks](https://www.expedia.ca/Sandbanks-Hotels-Beach-Hotel.0-0-d6337080-tBeachHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels in Arizona](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Arizona-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d204-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Four Points by Sheraton Venice Mestre](https://www.expedia.ca/Venice-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Venice-Mestre.h2417759.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Grand Vacations Club Las Palmeras Orlando](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Las-Palmeras-By-Hilton-Grand-Vacations.h1831090.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Tampa (TPA) to Detroit (DTW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/tpa/dtw/tampa-to-detroit) > > [Flights from Delhi (DEL) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/del/yyz/delhi-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Las Vegas (LAS) to Minneapolis - St. Paul (MSP)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/las/msp/las-vegas-to-minneapolis) > > [Flights from Istanbul (IST) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ist/yyz/istanbul-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Timehri (GEO) to Montego Bay (MBJ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/geo/mbj/georgetown-to-montego-bay) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mco/toronto-to-orlando) > > [Flights from Regina Intl. to NYC-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqr/nyc/regina-to-new-york) ### Cars > [Enterprise Car Rentals In Brantford](https://www.expedia.ca/Enterprise-Car-Rentals-In-Brantford.d6245-c15.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) > > [Pickup Car Rentals in Surrey](https://www.expedia.ca/Pickup-Car-Rentals-In-Surrey.d9759-tPickup.Car-Rental-Guide-Class) ### Packages ### Vacation Rentals ### General
