About this property

Boston Harbor Yacht, AC/Heat, Walk to North End WiFi

If you are planning a trip to Boston consider staying on our very comfortable motor yacht "Sea Pearl" in historic Charlestown on Boston Harbor. We are located in the new Charlestown Marina close to the USS Constitution, Freedom Trail and Bunker Hill monument. The North End is a very pleasant walk of less than 1 mile.

Our 2003 Carver yacht is perfect for two couples with two staterooms ( bedrooms) each with a queen size bed and baths with showers. Additional sleeping is available in the full size pullout in the salon.

Kitchen with microwave/confection oven, small refrigerator and freezer, and coffee maker.

The yacht is fully air conditioned and heated during the winter. Stay connected with free WiFi. Two TVs with cable TV.

Small outside seating on the stern of the boat and larger seating area up one level to the helm station. Please note the boat is stationary during your visit and can not be driven.

Accessible to all of Boston via car, bus, and water taxi. Walk to many area restaurants, Freedom Trail, Bunker Hill, USS Constitution and the North End. Parking is available but must be reserved ahead or spaces can be full. Please confirm with us if you need it.

Free bus to the North End two blocks away, MBTA Water shuttle is less than 10 minute walk and the shuttle drops you off at Long Wharf right next to the New England Aquarium

Safe and friendly neighborhood. Gated entrance to the marina. Please note, stairs can be challenging to anyone with mobility issues. Please check photos.

Our yacht provides a exciting unique remedy for a busy vacation. Wake to the sound of gulls. Have your coffee while watching the sun come up over the harbor. Spend a busy day seeing the sites and return to quiet on the water. Sip a cocktail outside of the deck watching the harbor and finally be rocked to sleep at night in our comfortable beds done up in premium linens.

We had a great time, everything was very smooth, host was very clear and specific.Great location, quiet, relaxing and safe.Security 24hrs.Was easy to walk around. We love the accessibility to transport with water taxis and city charter transports. I Enjoy the restaurants around. Sea Pearl had a great air conditioning system, Boston was very hot so going back to boat was refreshing. Living room, bedrooms, bathrooms were clean. I will go back. Thank you.

We had a wonderful stay here. It’s a beautiful and well maintained yacht with excellent access to all the Boston hot spots within walking distance. We stayed in November and the boat kept us nice and toasty warm. The only downside was that we were asked not to use the stove which kind of limited our options in the kitchen.

Very unique stay, enjoyed it very much especially being a boat owner and growing up camping on the lakes as a child. Regarding the logistics, host has it planned out and executes to their plan which allows this unique experience pleasing. So great walking and waking next to million dollar yachts.

This was a fun and unique place to stay. The common space was bigger than expected and very comfortable. The boat was a little difficult to board, especially with luggage but doable for the average person.

The Sea Pearl was great. It was in a great location, in walking distance to the USS Constitution and the Freedom Trail. The beds were comfortable. The living space was ample for four adults. Sherry met us to let us in and orient us to the boat and the marina area, which was helpful. Deb and her husband (owners) were very responsive when we couldn’t figure out the heating system. We would definitely stay on the Sea Pearl again if we returned to Boston.

This was the perfect location for our family (two adults and two older teen boys). We felt very safe and we were able to walk (we like to walk) to everything we wanted to do. There was a small grocery store just a few blocks away for us to pick up breakfast, coffee, etc. The beds were very comfortable and the AC worked well. It was nice to sit above board and watch the sunset over the harbor. And the communication with Deb was great. It was nice to have a comfortable homebase for a few days in Boston. We would definitely stay here again.

Unique house boat vacation

The Sea Pearl was a wonderful boat, perfect for 6 of us! Myself, my husband and our four boys enjoyed the unique setting on Charlestown Harbor. The ‘neighbors’ were quiet, the cabin was comfortable, the AC was inviting on the hot days. The check in and check out process was super easy, the parking was close by and unloading was a breeze! This is a great location, a short and comfortable walk away from the USS Constitution and the freedom trail!

Fun graduation weekend

Communication with the owner was excellent. Her property manager was timely, helpful, thorough and welcoming. Everything was just as stated. The Sea Pearl was cozy. We walked to the USS constitution and to the north end. Having a Dunkin with a few minutes walk was fantastic.
