Genral Info

Unique is a beautiful boat nicely finished in Teak. The Lower Deck contains 4 air conditioned en-suite cabins, with a shower, basin and toilet in each. All the cabins can be made up in either a double or twin bed format. The aircon can run all night off the solar. The cabins look out on to the lake with drop down blinds, French doors, mosquito nets and a fan which can run all night. There is a walkway on either side of the boat, providing access to the cabins through sliding doors. All cabins have 13 Amp (square pin) socket outlets for charging. Also located on the lower deck is a spacious kitchen and the crew cabin.

The Upper Deck is accessible via a stairway in the center of the boat, and this is where the main entertainment area is located. There are 4 benches that open out to provide additional beds for those wanting to sleep upstairs (mosquito nets provided.) Dining is done at either the bar or an 8 seater dining room table. The Upper Deck can be all enclosed in canvas awnings, that seal against the weather and also open up to allow fresh air and sunshine in, with 4 fans having recently been added to ensure more airflow. A Jacuzzi and sun loungers are located at the back of the Upper Deck for those wanting to soak up the sunshine.

The boat is accessed at the front by a retractable walkway onto a landing area and then onto the side walkways to the cabins and kitchen. The is a charcoal braai for guests convenience – please bring your own charcoal.

Tender Boats

There are two tender boats with outboard engines to cater for your fishing, game viewing and sunset cruises (one pontoon and one speedboat.)

Please Note: Tender Boats are for Game Drives and fishing in the vicinity of the houseboat and are strictly crew driven. Should you require a speed boat for long distance fishing, please either bring your own, which will be towed behind the houseboat leaving behind one of the houseboat tenders, (please bring your own rope for towing and fuel) or you can hire a speed boat from Marineland. (Contact us for details).
