Boat Hotels (Boatels) in Andalucia
A boatel is a boat or ship which is moored up either on the coast, on a riverbank or lake shore, and is used as a hotel. Boat hotels have limited facilities and size but usually offer bedrooms with bathroom facilities, as well as a lounge and kitchen area.
Much depends on the size and style of the boat. Whatever the service situation, a great view of the surrounding water is assured from the top deck. More luxurious offerings can be found in certain boatels, and activities surrounding this accommodation will very much depend on the location where the boat is moored, whether a seaside resort, riverfront city or scenic lakeside spot.
