• You don't necessarily need sailing skills to spend a night on the water.
• Houseboats across the US may be rented on Airbnb and make for a truly unique stay.
• We found Airbnb boats across the country ranging from $114 to $436 per night.

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.

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. Staying here includes a gas barbecue and shrimp boiler, a pergola with a ceiling fan to hang out in, and canoes and kayaks you can take out for a paddle.

Moored in the Joshua Tree Land Yacht Club and located on dry land in the desert expanse of Joshua Tree, California, this boat is exceedingly unique.

Pretty water views and cool water breezes are found throughout the boat, and glossy teak finishes and white leather complement red and blue accents for a strong nautical theme.

There are two staterooms, each with its own baths, and a small kitchen and a living area. The compact kitchen doesn't permit the use of the cooktop, but there is a coffeemaker, toaster, microwave, and convection oven.

Bench seating wraps around the deck and the kitchen is large enough for entertaining a crowd. Of course, there are also nods to its cinematic history. You'll be able to hear the iconic horn Rodney Dangerfield played in the movie, and there are autographed photos of Dangerfield and stills from the film.  

While the boat is rented with the understanding it'll stay put in its berth, guests may talk to the Superhost about chartering a cruise on the Chesapeake Bay. Fishing trips can be booked in the marina as well. 

Spacious 84' yacht in South Pasadena, Florida

Book this Florida yacht on Airbnb

Outside, there's more room to spread out along the perimeter benches, at patio tables, or from the seating area at the back of the ship. 

While the boat stays moored, you can also book private charters with the host or use the complimentary kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, and fishing poles.

Restored vintage yacht in Charleston, South Carolina

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.

Airbnb for Boats: How to Turn Your Boat into a Profitable Boat Rental

• September 11, 2023

By The Hospitable Team

Airbnb is a well-known marketplace connecting hosts who want to earn extra income by renting their properties short-term and travelers looking for memorable holiday experiences. Staying in an Airbnb offers travelers a unique alternative to traditional hotel stays.

Since Airbnb guests are interested in different types of places to stay during their trips, the platform welcomes many different kinds of listings, including rooms, vacation homes, mansions, tiny houses , cabins, castles, RVs , and more. Moreover, it’s even possible to rent out boats in the same way as apartment and condo rentals.

Airbnb boat listings are very popular among adventurous travelers seeking unique accommodations. So, if you own a boat and are looking for ways to make some extra money, you may consider using it as an Airbnb rental.

Can You List Any Boat on Airbnb?

The short answer is yes. Airbnb boat rentals range from amazing sailboats and unique yachts to houseboats and catamarans. But there are certain restrictions about what can be listed as a place to stay.

Airbnb hosts can list boats and other vessels that serve only as accommodation and are semi-permanently attached to a set location. Still, there are also Airbnb listings that offer boats and yachts that can be rented as a private charter.

Running an Airbnb boat rental can be a profitable side hustle if you provide a memorable experience for guests looking for unique stays. It can also allow you to meet interesting people from around the world.

However, Airbnb hosting involves many responsibilities, and managing your boat rental can be time-consuming. An effective solution can be automating your routine operations using vacation rental software like Hospitable.

All your STR business in one convenient window

Airbnb for boats: things to consider before you get started.

Before you decide to embark on the journey of becoming a boat host and creating a listing on Airbnb , there are several factors to consider.

Short-term rental laws vary from state to state and even city to city, so you need to research your area’s local laws and regulations to make sure using your boat as an Airbnb is legal. Contact your local government to determine whether you need to obtain specific licenses and permits to comply with all the necessary regulations.

And keep in mind that you’ll have to report the income you get from renting out your boat or yacht on Airbnb in your taxes . It’s also essential to have the right insurance coverage to protect you and your guests in case of any accidents and damages.

Prepare Your Boat for Airbnb

Make your boat guest-ready and do your best to create an inviting atmosphere where travelers will feel comfortable and welcome. Ensure your boat is clean, safe, and has all the amenities necessary for a comfortable stay. Guests will expect basic amenities like electricity, running water, cooking utensils, linens, and a bathroom or a shower. Other amenities like a dining table or WiFi are desirable.

You must also ensure that your boat is well-maintained and has all the necessary safety equipment . Ensure you have enough life jackets for all guests and equip your boat with smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, and a well-stocked first kit.

Create a Listing for Your Airbnb Boat Rental

Once you have prepared your boat for welcoming guests, it’s time to create a listing. It’s your opportunity to showcase your unique property and attract potential guests. You should provide a detailed description of what your boat has to offer and highlight all the amenities.

Add high-quality pictures of your boat to showcase its unique features. Include clear house rules, check-in and check-out instructions, and safety guidelines, and specify your cancellation policy . 

Set competitive prices for your Airbnb boat rental. Research other listings that offer boat rentals in your area to get an idea of the right nightly rate. When setting your prices, you should consider such factors as the size of your boat, amenities you provide, location, and the time of year.

Manage Your Boat Rental

Once your boat is listed on Airbnb, you can start accepting bookings. Respond to all booking requests as fast as possible and stay in touch with your guests using messages to address any concerns they may have or answer any questions.

Moreover, you must proactively communicate with guests during all the customer journey stages to make them feel cared for. Then, they are more likely to leave you 5-star reviews.

Being available to your guests 24/7 isn’t easy, but you can automate all conversations with your guests using vacation rental software like Hospitable, saving you hours. With Hospitable, you can set rules and create a personalized message flow for each guest. This way, you can ensure they always get the necessary information at the right time.

Have conversations with your guests even when you sleep.

You’ll also need to take care of regular cleaning and maintenance to provide your guests with a clean and comfortable living space during each turnover. The easiest way to ensure your boat rental is spotless is to delegate this job to professional cleaners. Then, you’ll need to give them a detailed cleaning checklist that they should follow to ensure that your rental is perfect for the next guest.

Boat Rentals That Guests Can Book on Airbnb

Airbnb’s Boats Category offers guests an array of unique stays. Let’s look at some of the listings, so you can better understand what kind of experience guests can have if they dream of an overnight stay on the water. 

This renovated barge is located in the heart of the Belfast Marina, right next to the world-famous Titanic Centre, and is only a 10-minute walk away from The Cathedral Quarter with great restaurants and bars.

The houseboat was designed to combine the joy of being close to the water with on-shore comfort and “chic” appeal. It has two bedrooms, a modern kitchenette, and a complete “on-shore” style bathroom and can comfortably accommodate up to four people. 

This fully insulated houseboat is docked outside the village of Wakefield on the Gatineau River and can accommodate two guests. It’s a rustic, artisanal, floating tiny house with no hot water, shower, or electricity. The boat has a cozy, airtight woodstove, cooking facilities, and a second-story sleeping loft with a queen-sized bed.

This posh yacht is docked near historic locations and the North End, Boston’s oldest neighborhood. The yacht has two staterooms, each with its bath, a living area, and a small kitchen. Guests can enjoy the hustle and bustle of the city by day and return to the Sea Pearl to spend a relaxing evening on the water.

The sailboat “Clementine” is set up as a full-time Airbnb in a slip at Reefpoint Marina, which has amenities like a heated pool with two hot tubs, a ship store, laundry and shower facilities, and a restaurant. The boat has beds for three guests, but the stay is ideal for couples looking for a romantic getaway. It’s a perfect place to enjoy beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

Final Thought

Renting out your boat on Airbnb can be an exciting way to earn extra income while providing adventurous travelers unique and memorable experiences. You can turn your boat into a profitable venture in the Airbnb market with proper preparation, creating an appealing listing, and setting the right nightly rates.

Quick stats about vacation rentals in Yachats

Your guide to yachats, all about yachats.

Yachats lies towards the southern border of Lincoln County in what is one of the more remote stretches of Oregon’s coastline. Here, dense coastal forests of spruce and mountain hemlock run towards the sea, and craggy shorelines create a subdued and rugged beauty that surrounds this small fishing community. The black basalt coastal areas and surrounding parklands exemplified in the Tokatee Klootchman State Natural Site provide countless opportunities for outdoor recreation that range from hiking and mountain biking to whale watching.

The town of Yachats is small, both in terms of footprint and regional attractions. A weekly farmers market hosts a variety of locally-sourced grocery items and artisanal goods from around the community, while several seafood restaurants along the main seaside drag serve dishes that include ingredients caught that very day. Yahats is also home to a popular brewery and bakery, two staples in many of Oregon’s coastal towns. Despite the rural nature of the area, Yachats sits along the state’s busy Highway 101, so accessing the surrounding communities, both large and small, is easy and efficient.

The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Yachats

The northern coastal climate of Yachats makes for short, warm summers and chilly, rainy winters. The Oregon coast is known for its generally overcast skies through much of the year, and Yachats is no exception. That being said, the deep green forests, rolling gray clouds, and dark ocean waters found in the area hold a remarkable beauty unique to the region that’s worth witnessing any time of year.

To avoid the chance of showers getting in the way as much as possible, looking for vacation rentals in Yachats in July and August is your best bet, as they are the two driest months of the year. However, if you can tolerate a little cold, bring a rain jacket in January to get a chance to witness pods of migratory whales making their way south for the winter. The shoulder seasons bring brisk temperatures that make for great hiking and events such as the Yachats Village Mushroom Fest in mid-October.

Top things to do in Yachats

Cape perpetua scenic area.

This oceanside network of trails and dramatic forested prominences climbing from the sea lies south of town. Stopping at the visitors’ center is a great way to learn about some of the area’s cultural and natural histories before spending the day exploring the 26 miles of trails that hug the rocky coastline.

Hundreds of tidepools can be found up and down Oregon’s sprawling coastlines, with many of them located around the Yachats region. These unique ecologies appear during low tide among the rocky basalt coastal areas, where a medley of marine life, including barnacles, starfish, and anemones live. All tidepool life and environments are protected in Oregon, meaning touching or interacting with the sea life is prohibited.

Just 30 minutes away, Newport is a commercial fishing town with a quirky artistic bent that makes for a wonderful day trip from Yachats. An oceanfront port area hosts restaurants featuring freshly caught seafood. Newport also houses the tallest lighthouse in Oregon, the wooden Yaquina Headland Lighthouse.
