Cute and clean houseboat. Mallony was a pleasure to communicate with and quick to respond. The sunrise views from the top of the boat were so beautiful. We even saw a sea lion! Its close proximity to downtown Sausalito made walking around so easy.

I'll try to keep this concise. The host is a rock star. Every detail of the boat was perfect for us. The location - perfect. The houseboat community - welcoming, genuine and people you want to meet. The houseboat itself - awesomely authentic with every need met. Super clean, amazing bed and linens, every kitchen utensil imaginable. September was an amazing month for us with awesome weather. Heading out in the mornings on the kayak was soul enriching. Wine on the back deck or apps on top can't be beat.The only potential drawback would be for someone who is not used to living on a houseboat. It's a somewhat unique experience - close quarters, clothes storage. But if you are at all experienced with even a short stay on a boat, then those issues are simply not an issue.It rained only a few days so we were blessed.Be sure to check out the weekly farmers market right around the corner; it's worth it. Sausalito also has plenty of great restaurants in every price range.For us, an overall 5-star experience.

Cozy and tidy houseboat
The boat is essentially a tiny home on the water and exactly as represented in the listing. The owner Mallory was very communicative and helpful throughout our stay.

Great experience!
My husband and I stayed here for 7 nights and had a wonderful time. Many great restaurants within walking distance and very cute town. The houseboat is clean and updated. Has everything for cooking meals in too. The bed is very comfortable. Our favorite place was the top deck. We sat up there every evening to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Mallory was always responsive to messages and made a great video to show how to find the houseboat and use everything inside. It was a unique experience and I highly recommend it!

Welcome aboard!
What a wonderful hidden gem. Dog friendly and just right for 2 adults (or 2 adults +1 child). The host was responsive and helpful at every turn of the tides and all the necessary info was included. The small bay is full of harbor seals (including some very young pups) and various birds. Excellent restaurants are quite literally a stones throw away and shopping along the strip can consume an afternoon (as well as your wallet). The Gettin Nauti held up well in a couple of storms and the outside furnishings didn't take on much water and thus dried out very quickly indeed. The shower is decent size for a boat (the water piping hot and plenty of it) but the head will take some getting used to (hey, it's a boat). All in all I absolutely LOVED rolling out of bed and into a kayak.
Will visit again!

A Dream Come True
I have always wanted to try boat life and this was the perfect experience and lived up to all my expectations. I loved waking up to the beautiful view of the water with Sausalito hills in the background. And the view at night is equally as impressive. Mallory was a great host and very good at communication.

Stunning Sausalito
Had an amazing stay aboard the Getting Nauti. Such a cool and unique experience to stay on a boat as opposed to a house.
It's certainly tight quarters on the boat, but all of the space is highly usable. The incredible weather means you're able to enjoy grilling on the front deck, sip coffee in the morning on the swim deck while watching the cloud bank move over the city, or take in the lights from the observation deck at night.
Shower is a little tight, but there are larger facilities available at the front of the marina. Didn't get a chance to take the kayak out on the water, but had fun watching all of the recreational activities in the bay - including some curious seals.
Definitely enjoyed being rocked to sleep each night with the waves and the marina was nice and quiet. Will absolutely see if the property is available if I ever need a space in the Bay Area!
