Five of the Best Boats to Book on Airbnb in Vancouver
We highlight some of the best boats you can book and stay in through Airbnb in the city of Vancouver.
With thousands of choices for short term rentals in Vancouver you may have overlooked a fun and relaxing option, a boat. We’re highlighting some of the best and most charming boat stays for your next visit to Vancouver. From luxurious private rooms and cruises on Coal Harbour’s waters to more rustic stays on a classic tug boat, if you’ve been looking to spend a night on the water then this list is for you.
Classic 1940 Tug Boat Experience
$164 per night.
https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/37815105
This 1948 tug boat used to tow logs across the water but has now been repurposed into an adorable Airbnb stay. When booking you’ll have the entire tug boat to yourself, which has a cosy downstairs living space with a sofa that turns into a queen-sized bed along with a full kitchen and table. On the rooftop deck of the boat, there is a barbeque and a hot tub to relax and soak in the gorgeous views of downtown Vancouver .
This beautiful 1940’s tug boat is located in False Creek right near Granville Island, and when you book this boat you’ll be picked up and dropped off in a shuttle boat from Granville Island. Guests will also have access to a dinghy for complete independence to get back to shore. While this boat has essentials and amenities like heating and cooking materials, it doesn’t have wifi, so be sure to bring some old school entertainment for when you’re out on the water!
Sailboat Experience with Downtown Vancouver View
$178 per night.
https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/37463793
Anchored in False Creek right by downtown Vancouver and Granville Island, this 43 foot sailboat built in France offers a gorgeous stay on the water for up to six guests. With two bedrooms equipped with a queen sized and double bed, the spacious sailboat also has two bathrooms and a fully functional kitchen with a refrigerator. Guests also have access to an outdoor barbeque grill on the top of the boat, where they can relax and enjoy the tranquility of the water around them.
Guests will have free pickup and drop-off to the boat from any public dock, and can choose between various anchoring locations for free or be docked at Granville Island Marine for an additional fee. Keep in mind that while there is power on board, it shouldn’t be used for much more than the boat’s lighting, charging phones and laptops, and powering an indoor or outdoor stereo system. Along with this, the sailboat doesn’t have central heating or wifi, so be sure to bring an extra layer and book to enjoy for when you’re out on the water.
Vancouver Lazy River Retreat
$109 per night.
https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/39108160
While the rest of these boat stays are right around downtown Vancouver and Granville Island, this lazy river retreat is a perfect way to get out of the city into the nature-surrounded waters of the Fraser River. Two bedrooms with queen size beds provide a comfortable stay for a family or 2 couples, this gorgeous boat is built for enjoying the outdoors while also being spacious and well-furnished inside. The boat has a spacious covered top deck with comfy couches and a hot tub case, and a covered BBQ area in the back, ready for all weather situations.
One of the great things about this stay is the private dock, allowing easy access to local hiking trails. Kayaks are provided to paddle around the Fraser River if your feeling adventurous. This boat stay also comes with the luxury of wifi, so you can still Netflix and chill, while relaxing on the water.
Galasea – Private Room and Luxury Cruise around Vancouver
$1,000 per night.
https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/34250254
While this boat stay may not suit every budget, for luxury travelers it offers an incredibly unique experience you won’t be able to find anywhere else. This listing offers a private room on a 2012 Searay 54 foot cruiser, along with a captain at your disposal to take you around Vancouver’s waters or to Gibsons for the evening. Private and spacious living room which features a complete kitchen to host your celebrity guests.
Located just off Coal Harbour , you can anchor offshore for ultimate privacy. A Jet Tender at the back gives you freedom to hit the shore anytime you wish. Undoubtedly one of the more luxurious experiences and boats you can find on Airbnb, if you’ve been dreaming of seeing Vancouver’s surrounding waters in a sleek cruiser, look no further.
Boat and View on the Sea in False Creek
$76 per night.
https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/37326164
Located in False Creek by downtown Vancouver, this cosy sailboat gives yourself and 3 guests a comfortable stay on the water and under the stars. The gorgeous space indoors has a wood stove so you can warm up in case it starts to get a bit chilly at sea. Along with the wood stove, guests have access to a barbeque right by the outdoor cockpit, so they can cook something up something to eat while they enjoy the beautiful views of downtown Vancouver and Granville Island.
The boat is anchored, so your inner viking will be required to row a dinghy for about five minutes to get to the boat. The Solar-powered boat let’s you keep your phone powered along with any other devices you need to charge or power. There is a stove but no fridge, so you have to plan on frequent trips on the dinghy to replenish perishables.

Quick stats about vacation rentals in Vancouver
Your guide to vancouver, welcome to vancouver.
Framed by coastal mountains and the ocean, the gleaming city of Vancouver is known for its stunning location, beautiful green spaces and beaches, diverse population, walkable neighbourhoods, and a laid-back West Coast lifestyle. The city is a mecca for outdoor enthusiasts who can ski in the morning and paddleboard or kayak in the afternoon.
But Vancouver isn’t just about active adventures in the great outdoors. It’s filled with artistic and culinary experiences that highlight First Nations and immigrant cultures. Vancouver has produced some of the most innovative and delicious cuisine in Canada, featuring local ingredients and flavours, accompanied by creations from award-winning local craft brewers and distillers.
Whether you’re dining on delectable fresh seafood on a sunny patio, cycling along the False Creek Seawall, or wandering through museums and independent local boutiques, expect a vibrant urban experience among nature in Vancouver.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in Vancouver
Vancouver’s peak visitation period takes place during the summer months, from May to August. The bustling summer season coincides with the city’s best and sunniest weather, when temperatures reach into the mid- and upper-20s Celsius. Expect the city’s beaches, streets, and seawalls to be packed with people sunbathing, walking, and cycling during summer. Fall is a lovely time to visit to enjoy sunny days and fewer crowds. The cooler rainy season begins in November and lasts into March, ushering in a long spring highlighted by the spectacular blossoms of the city’s 40,000 blooming cherry trees. Winter snowfall is rare, as winter temperatures usually hover above freezing, but on the three north shore mountains that frame the city, snow provides great skiing opportunities just 30 minutes from downtown Vancouver.
Top things to do in Vancouver
Stanley park.
Vancouver’s downtown peninsula is anchored by Stanley Park, one of the most beautiful and popular urban green spaces in the world. Walk or rent bicycles to ride along the nearly-9-kilometre Stanley Park Seawall, experience a First Nations cultural tour of the forest, or simply enjoy the stunning city and water views from the park’s beaches, playgrounds, and walking trails.
Bill Reid Gallery of Northwest Coast Art
Displaying Coast Salish First Nations carvings and works by a master carver and Haida artist as well as other Indigenous artists, this downtown art gallery is the only public gallery in Canada dedicated to contemporary Northwest Coast Indigenous art. Visitors can enjoy guided tours and appreciate the artists’ intricate carvings in gold, bronze, jade, and wood.
Spanish Banks Beach
Vancouver is graced with a surprising number of beaches, including the wide sandy expanse of Spanish Banks Beach. Located on the waterfront of the city’s Point Grey neighbourhood, this low-key stretch of sand is a local favorite. It’s ideal for picnics, sunbathing, kite flying, and beach volleyball — or for just enjoying the beach and exploring its extensive low tide all summer long.
