Summary: We stayed at the Villa Boathouse for two nights, arriving Friday afternoon and departing Sunday. From the moment we arrived, the stress of city life lifted and we settled into what was a magical weekend. We had a little tinny with an outboard so that did give us the opportunity to explore the area, go for beachside swims and make our way up the river for a lovely lunch. Cocktails at sunset on the deck at the Villa were magic and waking up with the sound of the water lapping against the shore was priceless. Thank you Daniella for letting us share your beautiful and special Boathouse, we will be back for sure, we absolutely LOVED it!
