Boats in the United States

"Something different to stay in for a business trip, great location for our needs. Ideal also for a Holiday trip to explore the local area along the canal."

"Our stay on the Yathra Houseboat will always stay in our minds and hearts. This is our second time within 3 years. We had a vacation of our life with all the comfort and pampering by the staff on the boat. The cruise on the river provided rare glimpse of few exotic birds and a large group of monkeys. The narrations by the Manager of the Dedduwa Boat House about those birds were very informative. The Skipper was kind enough to stop along the river bank to watch the birds closely and take photographs. The candle-lit dinner and the night spend on the upper deck was simply magical. The next day my husband even managed catch some fish while cruising. The staff arranged them to be prepared for our lunch and that dish was out of this world. The staff went an extra mile to make us happy. The bedrooms and the facilities on board were above standard. This is the best destination we spend while in Sri Lanka. Keep it up Yathra and we will back again next year."

"Superbe équipage, gentillesse et discrétion. Beaucoup de professionnalisme et des moments inoubliables sur le bateau et lors des excursions. Cuisine fraîche et délicieuse préparée en direct à chaque repas. A faire absolument !"

"Environment is awesome, waking paths among canals with great variety of birds drawing circles. Visitors are welcomed with great attention and lovely gestures (you find an apple and sweets in your room)"

Lights in the bathroom were blinking.

"The location is very good,, 7 minutes to nearest tram. Breakfast was amazing, Room amenities very basic nothing fancy. Try to book a room with a view on the open water,, not street side. Heater in room was very good."

"Unbeatable view. We saw a herd of caribou on the mountain to the east of the glacier. Our boat driver was wonderful."

I love the extremity of this place. Along with that came a couple of risks that concerned me. Reliance on a digital keypad lock if you’re on the deck and the door blows closed. No emergency radio. Icy water and no shelter on land even if you swam to shore. Also, we were told to use the provided phone number to call only if there was a true emergency. I honored that but therefore had no help when the water stopped working. Cryptic printed instructions did not help us get it working again (and I work on pump systems as part of my career). None of this ruined our enjoyment of this stunningly beautiful location.
