Gemütliche Atmosphäre überall! Dieses Boot ist der perfekte Ort für einen entspannten Kurzurlaub mit Freunden. Der Seeblick ist wunderschön und das WLAN funktioniert einwandfrei für Instagram-Stories. Radfahren hat die Stimmung richtig gehoben und die Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Stadt sind nur einen kurzen Spaziergang entfernt. Absolut empfehlenswert!

Deze huisboot is een verborgen juweeltje! We hielden van de ruime woonkamer en de keuken maakte het gemakkelijk om maaltijden te bereiden, De nabijgelegen attracties, zoals de Menin Gate, waren slechts een korte rit verwijderd, Een zeer ontspannen toevlucht

Ruim schip, geweldig for een groep van 9, Super schoon en alles wat nodig was, was aan boord, De keukenopstelling is legit, het koken was zo gemakkelijk, Dichtbij natuurgebieden, dus buitenavonturen zijn slechts een sprongetje weg, 10/10 zou aanbevelen voor een squad trip

La Cozy Boat en Merkem es precisamente eso: ¡acogedora! Nos sentimos como en casa, La única desventaja fue la distancia de las áreas de compras más cercanas, pero valió la pena por la tranquilidad, Ideal para un grupo que busca desconectarse del bullicio

Vi hade en fantastisk vistelse på Cozy Boat i Merkem! Utsikten över sjön var helt enkelt fantastisk, och båten var rymlig nog för vår grupp på nio, Barnen älskade vattenparken, och vi uppskattade att ha cyklar tillgängliga för att utforska det vackra landskapet, Det är en bit till stadens centrum för shopping, men vi hittade några härliga restauranger i närheten, speciellt njöt av 't Hooiland! Sammanfattningsvis en fantastisk getaway som vi varmt rekommenderar
