About this property

A relaxing vacation on the Hilja houseboat with a stunning view of the Schlei (dogs welcome)

Hello and welcome aboard our houseboat “Hilja,” the sister ship of the houseboat “Aava,” in Schleswig on the beautiful Schlei.

Spend your vacation in a unique setting, close to nature and with a personal touch.
Experience the unique harbor atmosphere among sailboats and yachts and enjoy a maritime vibe right from the front row.
Let the lapping of the waves wake you up and greet the morning with breakfast on the sun deck.
After an eventful day, the rooftop terrace invites you to relax—here you’ll find peace and tranquility.

Amenities:
We’ve furnished our Hilja with great attention to detail, focusing on high-quality and sustainable amenities.
The cozy berth offers enough space for two people. The modern bathroom features a spacious shower, and in the galley, you’ll find everything you need to prepare a delicious meal.
From the rooftop terrace with its spacious lounge, you’ll enjoy a fantastic view of the harbor and the Schlei.
With a small onboard library and games, there’s plenty of variety and entertainment even in “Schietwedder” weather. TV and free Wi-Fi are also available.

Location and surroundings:
The houseboat Hilja is securely moored at the Wiking Marina, an authentic harbor in Schleswig with the best view of the Schlei.
The Wiking Marina is easily accessible via the B76 and also offers good connections to the Schleswig train station.
You’ll find shopping options in the immediate vicinity, and Schleswig’s Old Town is also not far away.

Hafenflair

Das Hausboot war klein und gemütlich. Die Atmosphäre direkt im Hafen zu legen, ist sehr reizvoll. Schönes Wetter vorausgesetzt, können wir diesen Aufenthalt sehr empfehlen

Hausboot Hilja

Wir haben die 5 Tage auf dem kleinen Hausboot sehr genossen. Die Einrichtung ist modern und liebevoll. Die Sauberkeit ist tipptopp. Die Erläuterungen zur Anreise etc. durch Wind&Wellen und die Informationen im Bordbuch waren prima. Die Website von FeWo direkt war hingegen nicht hilfreich. Alles in allem ein schöner Aufenthalt!
