4. Cozy yacht with three rooms
Imagine a cozy 40-foot (12-meter) sailboat all to yourself: 3 rooms with 2 queen-sized beds and a double bed, futons laid out on the deck, and even a hammock in between masts. Better yet, you will get a bathroom with hot water, a kitchen, a dining space, laundry essentials for long stays, and even a dedicated workspace for when you really need to check in on work.
This yacht charter is simply ideal for idyllic cruising, and the operators actually require that guests be “quiet and chill” — it’s not a party boat for raucous events and the like. If that sounds right up your alley, the sailboat located in a comfortable marina with lovely neighbors will be the perfect, relaxing hideaway of choice.

5. Neat, simple boat in Marina del Rey
This 30-foot (9-meter) sailboat docked in Marina del Rey is a simple and affordable place to stay on the water, and it is perfect for two guests who will have access to the entire boat that is complete with two bedrooms with two beds and a half bath.
The yacht is a lovely little hangout spot with high-speed Wi-Fi, a Smart TV and an Xbox One. It even provides a microwave and a mini fridge, as well as a kayak and fishing gear that you are welcome to use.
