Initially, I was hesitant about spending the weekend on a boat, since I had never stayed on one before. Once my boyfriend and I arrived at the Southern Lace, all my worries dissolved! Victoria was not in town, but her partner met us at the boat when we arrived, to give us a tour and make sure we got settled in okay. Even from afar, Victoria was an amazing host, very friendly and accommodating. She definitely went above and beyond to make our weekend getaway special. The yacht is absolutely stunning! Pictures don’t do it justice! It’s covered in beautiful teak wood throughout the inside and outside, and Victoria has done a wonderful job restoring this vintage yacht. It was a fun and unique experience to stay on the yacht, and it has everything you could expect from a normal house, just on a slightly smaller scale. With that said, the inside of the yacht still felt roomy and comfortable. The area is very peaceful at night, with a sky full of stars and the soft sound of the water lapping against the boat. The location is close to restaurants and some local bars, and a 25 minute scenic drive into Austin. It’s also only a 5 minute drive to a really great HEB for any supplies or groceries. There is even WiFi and a TV on the boat with Netflix, for late night movies after a long day. Our experience staying on this yacht was truly magical, and we are definitely looking forward to staying here again! Thank you Victoria and Rick!
