  • Houseboat Care: To maintain our houseboats' pristine condition, we kindly request that pets stay off the furniture. Any additional cleaning or damage due to fur, mud, or accidents will incur extra charges.
  • Desexing Requirement: In line with our commitment to cleanliness and well-being, all female dogs must be desexed before boarding our boats. This helps ensure a sanitary environment for all guests.
