1 Bedroom Boat Rental in Goolwa

Welcome to Piccolina!

Perfect for couples seeking a unique and romantic stay, Piccolina (meaning little one in Italian) features all the amenities needed for a relaxing and indulgent holiday experience.
The space
Piccolina features a queen bed with quality French flax linen by Bed Threads.
We have a small ensuite bathroom with shower, toilet & sink. Toiletries by Jurlique are provided, and soft towels by Sheridan. Lovely linen robes & slippers provide you with some extra pampering.
There is a comfy lounge to relax on, smart TV to stream from your device and a dining area. All with views of the river, marina, Hindmarsh Island bridge and historic wooden boats.
There is a fully equipped kitchen with gas stove & oven, small fridge and pantry staples. The Nespresso Creatista Pro coffee machine provides the perfect coffee every time, with touch screen & 9 coffee options.
The front deck features a bench with views up the river to watch the sunrise.
The back deck is protected from the elements with a marine grade BBQ, dining set, outdoor lounge & festoon lighting. Plenty of space to relax!
Privacy is important - therefore Piccolina has tinted windows for daytime seclusion, and blinds & curtains for night time solitude if desired.
Guest access
You'll have Piccolina all to yourselves!
She is located in the gated Captain Sturt marina, slip way & boat building facility. There is free parking on site.
The gates are open during business hours, and a code will be provided for outside of these hours. There is also a pedestrian gate.
All within walking distance is the historic Goolwa Wharf precinct, main street with shops, restaurants and other tourist attractions.
Other things to note
Please note Piccolina is not suitable for children or pets due to its proximity to the river.
There are cameras in the public areas of the marina, but not on Piccolina or the jetty she is attached to.
Piccolina has a low ceiling height (6f7in) and beams (6f4in), so if you are taller, you might want to rethink your stay.
There is a step up into the front and back of Piccolina so please be mindful of this during your stay.
Also the jetty is located on the edge of the main river channel, therefore it can get a little rough & windy. There will be movement onboard during these times. Also when large boats pass by.
Please reconsider if you suffer badly from motion sickness, otherwise you get used to any movement pretty quickly.
We have restricted power supply at the marina, so no electric kettle or toaster. We have a gas kettle & grill for toasting.

Summary: Great communication from the moment we booked. Tucked away in the peaceful marina, the. Piccolina is everything we hoped and more! The welcome nibbles, gorgeous bedding (and very comfortable bed) and towels. The extra touches were fabulous and added such class to this boutique boating accom.We enjoyed such a restful night, its close to town and the instructions were great.We enjoyed cooking breakfast on the back deck, and even had a seal catching its own breakfast at the front of the boat. Thank you so much Monique, we highly recommend. I just wish we could have stayed longer..

Summary: Piccolina is a unique way to experience river living. Well appointed and luxurious it is an easy walk to the wharf and Main Street shops. It is fantastic to wake up each morning to watch the sunrise and wildlife from the comfort of your bed. Monique is an exceptional host, attentive and a quick communicator. Will definitely recommend and be back.

Colin G. Nov 20, 2025 06:04:16 AM
Summary: We both were amazed at the quality of your accommodation. Everything exceeded our expectations, so much so that we have already booked another stay.My only concern (and this is not a complaint about the venue) was my ignorance as the working of the coffee machine. I'll make sure that I am well trained before my next stay. I cannot recommend this venue highly enough.
