GREAT Location and GREAT hosts.

What a wonderful experience, the Jaz itself is about as nice as a houseboat can get, and Sandra was an amazing host, she even decorated the place for our anniversary as a surprise. This is the type of rental that gives Air b&b/vrbo a good name.

The Best Vrbo!

We’ve stayed at numerous Vrbo and this was by far the best experience. Our Host went above and beyond to ensure we were happy and all needs met. The boat looks recently remodeled and perfectly maintained. The area is peaceful and safe. Fun to relax on the back of the boat to watch the river and wildlife. Also great fishing. Best night sleep we’ve had in ages. Making plans to return.

This is truly a romantic getaway! The boat is very clean and cozy, the manager is very welcoming and caring, great communication. The neighborhood is worn down but part of the nature was very vibrate and peaceful. We enjoyed sitting outside and enjoyed that view.

Great Houseboat on the Delta

We loved staying here. The host, Sandra, was fantastic, and the boat was so cute inside. The kitchen had everything we needed and then some. Anything we thought we needed was at hand. Sandra reached out the day before and really made us feel welcome.

Went here with my wife for our 24th Anniversary. We really enjoyed our stay, Sandra was very welcoming and friendly. She was there during check-in and walked us thru the property. The Delta_Jaz was very comfy, clean, and we felt very safe and secure during our stay here. Would definitely recommend staying here ...

Wonderful experience

It was just as described, very well kept and comfortable as heck. Wonderfully different than any hotel experience I've had. The location was beautiful and my daughter and I really enjoyed staying here. The only problem was the weather! Boy, the winds and the rains made it hard to sleep because of the shifting of the houseboat and the noises we weren't used to but that certainly can't be anyone's fault but Mother Nature's. Still, one of the best places we have ever stayed. Truly.

A hidden gem in the Bay Area

If you are in the SF Bay Area and are looking for a change of scenery, there's no need to fly all the way to Louisiana. We have our own river delta just an hour's drive from Oakland, complete with wildlife and houseboats.

Sunsets are amazing

We were so impressed with great little houseboat and the surrounding area. The boat was immaculate, equipped with all your needs…..bring your food and clothes and you’re all set. Sandra was absolutely adorable, she met us there at check in and went through all the ins and outs of the boat. She left us fresh flowers and fresh herbs, we felt very welcomed. It’s a perfect get away that’s not too far from home. We were the only ones in the area, so peaceful, not a lot of water traffic….and again, the sunsets were so amazing. We will return again in the future.
