Paradise

There’s no way to fully express in words how wonderful this houseboat, amenities and location are. We had the time of our lives. Sausalito is a gem but Issiquah Dock and the RMS Atlas are pure magic. The views and water, eateries and vibe are like no place else. Thank you Regina for our month of paradise!

Our experience in Sausalito was perfection from the moment we arrived to the sad day we had to say goodbye. The host communicated with us prior to arriving and met us at the property. We had a personalized tour and recieved tons of tips on how to navigate not just the rental but the entire area. The houseboat was appointed beautifully with quality appliances, furniture and linens. We had everything we needed for our exteneded stay. There is so much to do in The Bay Area that we were never bored. But our happiest moments were on the back dock, facing the lagoon and just watching the birds and world slowly crawl by. The RMS Atlas is a unique santuary in a crazy world and if you are looking for peace, you will find it here. We are already planning for our return stay next year. Highly recommend!!!
