Absolutely loved how relaxing it was, the boat was spotless. Weather was beautiful. I didn't leave the marina the whole time I was there, highly recommend it if you like relaxing listening to the ripples of the water while you lay on the very comfortable bed

We loved our stay at Piccolina. We pretty much had the marina to ourselves it was very peaceful. Tastefully decorated. Comfy bed, nice linen bedding and robes. Everything we needed was on the boat. Highly recommend!

Fantastic stay. Beautiful little houseboat. Within walking distance of everything in Goolwa. Wanted a weekend away with my partner and it didn’t disappoint. Loved the peacefulness of the marina. A unique stay which we both loved. Wish we could have spent a few more days onboard

Beautiful stay at Piccolina! Absolutely stunning house boat and such a perfect location, walking distance to the main streets of Goolwa. So many thoughtful details! Comfiest bed too. Would love to have stayed longer. And you genuinely forget you’re on a houseboat until you feel the gentlest sway. So delightful!
