About this property
Drift Flotel - Luxury Houseboat Experience
Step aboard the newly refurbished luxurious 3 storey, 12 metre, tri-hull boat featuring everything you would expect from a fully self-contained luxury home.
Accommodation includes 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen, lounge with fold-out bed, dining, balconies, walkaround deck and a rooftop terrace. It can comfortably accommodate 6 people overnight or up to 12 people during the day.
Setting the Flotel apart from all other existing houseboats on the Coast is that guests don’t have to worry about operating the vessel, when you arrive it will be anchored in a picturesque location featuring 360 degree water and island views. You will arrive via a cruise on our Bowrider. You will be departing from the Jetty 300 Marine Parade, Labrador, opposite the Aqua building.
This is the perfect getaway for those who want the houseboat experience without the hassle and stress of operating the vessel and always having a designated driver. Step aboard to relax with friends and family, enjoy some fishing, swimming, take the supplied tender to shore and explore the nearby islands and all the Gold Coast has to offer or just soak in the sun.
During your stay the host will be close by to help with any issues, including getting more supplies or going on further cruises around the islands.
