As this house is unique and requires special attention and specific rules, here are some FAQ regarding being on a boat. Q: Can the guest walk to the houseboat directly from the shore? A: No, the houseboat is moored in the middle of the harbour, you need to take sampan (water taxi) to get in and out of the harbour. Having said that, it is exactly one of the key experiences you have during the rental period. Q: What are the operating times of the sampan (water taxi) and how much is it? A: Sampan (water taxi) runs from 7am to midnight and cost $15-20 HKD per trip. You can simply dial the numbers in the info pack to arrange the pick up, so you need a sim card for making local call. However, if you plan on staying out late, it may not be suitable for you, as there is no guarantee a sampan is available for you at late night. Q: Is there sufficient water and power? A: Yes, we have 24 hours water and power. Water is drinkable after boiling. Please kindly turn off the electronic applicants after use and turn off all the lights and AC before you leave to avoid waste and over consumption. Q: Is there any Wifi ? A: Yes we have wifi on the houseboat. However, please understand that the network may not be as stable as your home, as we are using 4G sim card instead cable. Q: Bathroom? A: The boat has 2 fully equipped bathrooms with hot water (one is with bath tub). There are two 100% functional toilets, but please don't flush toilet paper, sanitary tissues, debris down the toilet. Trash bins are provided. Q: Air Conditioning? A: Our boat is equipped with AC. Even when it is summer, you can be assured that you will be relaxing in a nice comfortable environment! Q: What to expect on the houseboat? A: It's a houseboat, it is a unique authentic and relaxing experience. There may be noises and smells that you'd expect from a boat or the sea. It is the fishing village culture. Most of the time, it is very quiet. Q: Wave action? A: There is still a reasonable amount of wave action due to other boats passing by so you'll feel a slight rock from time-to-time. This is just part of the experience of staying on a boat. Usually it does not create an inconvenience. However, if you are very sensitive to sea-sick, I would not recommend you booking this boat. As this houseboat is unique and requires special attention and specific rules, here are some frequently asked questions about the boat. Q. Can I walk on a boat house from shore? A: No.The houseboat has been parked in the shelter center for a long time, and guests need to take a round trip to and from the houseboat and shore.However, this is an indispensable part of the Boathouse Experience in Hong Kong. Q: What are the service hours and how much does it cost? A: The service is available from 7am to 12am and costs HK $15-20 per trip.All you need to do is call the number in the package to arrange your transfer, and you'll need a SIM card to dial the local number.However, if you have a late night itinerary, the boat might not be the right fit for you, as there will not necessarily be a back to the boat after 11pm.

There is plenty of water and electricity.You can drink it after boiling.Please turn off the power after using the appliances and turn off all lights and air-conditioning before leaving the houseboat to avoid wasting and overconsumption.
