Our Craft

Our LeisureLiner houseboats are manufactured by Knysna Leisure Craft and are tailored to our specific needs. The LeisureLiner has been designed to the highest marine specifications by Australian naval architect Angelo Lavranos. The houseboats meet and often exceed all marine safety requirements.

Our boats have everything you might need. Just bring your clothes, food and towels.
The LeisureLiner can sleep up to five people. Inside it has:

  • a fore-cabin with a double bed, storage space and bench seat
  • a fully-appointed galley with gas stove, oven, fridge and sink
  • a small heads with a hot shower, chemical toilet and basin
  • an inside dining area that converts into a double bed.
  • a radio/CD player

Vaal RiverOutside is a sitting area under a retractable awning, a fold-out table and a charcoal braai. Deck chairs and an umbrella are provided on the upper deck.

We have outfitted the houseboats to a high specification, so it is truly a comfortable experience. All bedding and kitchen requirements are provided on the houseboat. All you need to bring with you are clothes, towels, toiletries, food and beverages (including filter coffee for the plunger) as well as your choice of CDs.

The houseboats are very safe. They have proved themselves as a recreational charter vehicle for many years at Lightleys Holiday Houseboats in Knysna.

On board we have all the equipment that you might need in the very unlikely event of an emergency: emergency contact details, lifejackets, a comprehensive first aid kit and a fire extinguisher. And we are on call 24 hours a day.
