Living by and on the water is more than just a vision. It is an attitude to life, an attitude to life, and above all, a philosophy of life. Our FloatingHouse Matorin combines the charm of a houseboat with the latest technical requirements in a modern design.

With comfortable and functional equipment, it corresponds to a luxurious property in a special waterfront location, which offers space for an unforgettable maritime family vacation for up to 6 people.

At first glance, the houseboat looks unusual and inviting. Arriving at the doorstep, a second glance reveals:

A light-flooded, spacious living area with an all-round panoramic view and a spacious bow terrace. The smooth transition between a fully air-conditioned living room and dining area with a kitchen completes the pleasant ambiance. This is reinforced in the evening hours by stylish LED interior and exterior lighting.

FloatingHouses Matorin greifen den Trend zu neuen, individuellen Wohnformen auf, verbinden ihn mit der Komponente Wasser und schaffen so einzigartige Wohnerlebnisse für private und kommerzielle Nutzungen.

Houseboats as a trend investment

FloatingHouses are not only a symbol of a special kind of quality of life and housing and a deep connection to nature, but can also be a very lucrative investment.

More and more people are discovering the appeal of a floating home and are investing in these unique properties.

MATORIN organizes FloatingHouse settlements as holiday resorts

MATORIN FloatingHouses are built for maritime use, are seaworthy, but not mobile. They are floating apartments that are often used by owners as a weekend home or holiday home.
In many cases, investors also operate FloatingHouses as interesting investments for year-round rental to holiday guests.

MATORIN acts, in cooperation with the sales partner PREMIUM-PLAN, as a service provider who supports owner-occupiers and/or investors in finding and leasing suitable berths in marinas or waterfront properties on which houseboat settlements, for example with up to 40 units,
can be built.

However, FloatingHouses are more than just floating apartments. They are often symbols of a special lifestyle, since more and more people are longing for a life away from fixed structures and conventions.


 No wonder that houseboats are becoming increasingly popular – not only as a form of living, but also as an investment -. Because whoever invests in a houseboat not only benefits from the freedom on the water, but also from the financial added value of an increasing demand for extraordinary real estate.

Preference is given to modern yacht harbors in the Mediterranean region that are beautifully located, have high-quality comfort (if possible   4-star classification) and excellent infrastructure with a restaurant, bar, SPA area, swimming pool, etc.
We attach particular importance to attractive berths with an unobstructed view of the wide sea including breathtaking sunsets.

In cooperation with PREMIUM-PLAN, MATORIN takes on the project planning and control for the implementation and organization of FloatingHouse settlements in the water.
We ensure the installation of connections for water, waste water and electricity for the continuous use of our FloatingHouses. We also take care of the jetty infrastructure.

If desired, MATORIN, in consultation with the respective owner of the berth, organizes the implementation of the necessary services for the economic use of the FloatingHouses by holiday guests.

What is a floating house?


A FloatingHouse is a floating home on the water. It offers a unique opportunity to leave everyday life behind and enjoy nature and the water.
Unlike a traditional house, a houseboat is mobile and can be anchored in different places in the water.
A FloatingHouse is not only a place to live, but also to work and relax.
With a roof terrace or sun deck with jacuzzi, it offers stunning views of the water and nature. A houseboat is therefore not only suitable as a permanent living area, but also as a weekend home or holiday home.

Why are FloatingHouses a trending investment?

FloatingHouses are the new trend in real estate, and for very good reason.
More and more people long for life on the water, but at the same time do not want to do without the comforts of home. Houseboats offer exactly this possibility.
Whether as a main residence, a weekend home or as a holiday home: you can live, work and relax on a floating house – and all of this in a unique place in an unusual environment. A vacation on a houseboat is a dream for anyone looking to be close to nature.
But not only life on the water is attractive, houseboats are also ideal as a capital investment.

USP of the MATORIN FloatingHouses

MATORIN floating houses are perfectly adapted to the conditions of the Mediterranean in terms of appearance, quality and function.
Our “apartments on the water” offer an unforgettable panoramic sea view from the living area due to large glass surfaces.

MATORIN FloatingHouse was specially designed for maritime use.
Experience has shown that life in southern Europe takes place largely outdoors when the weather is nice.
Our FloatingHouse takes this fully into account, in which the entire upper deck with 45 m2 can be used all day, 365 days a year.
Equipped with two awnings, outdoor shower, sun loungers, whirlpool, lounge and dining table groups, the roof terrace is predestined for exclusive use with an unobstructed view of the sea and the unmistakable ambience of the corresponding marina.

Below deck, the characteristic of our houseboat is that the spacious usable area has two spacious sleeping cabins, a fully equipped kitchen and a fully functional bathroom.

The spacious living area with panoramic windows and glass sliding doors to the “Bow Terrace” conveys the feeling of unlimited space and maritime life.

The unmistakable innovation of the MATORIN FloatingHouses consists in the combination of offering the buyer or tenant a luxurious apartment on the water with an exclusive sun terrace in an extraordinary ambience.
Staying in such a place becomes an unforgettable experience, which is positively reflected in the numerous customer reviews on booking.com.

FAQ

Depending on the model, size and equipment, a new houseboat costs between 100,000 and 300,000 euros to buy.

The first thing you should do before you buy a houseboat is find a berth. The costs for this depend on the size of your houseboat. You can then rent the berth for a certain period of time.

The main difference between a houseboat and a floating house is that the houseboat has its own motor and can be moved independently. Floating houses, on the other hand, are usually built on fixed berths on pontoons and are therefore firmly anchored. They also have no drive.

In addition to the acquisition costs and the processing fees, there is also the mooring fee. This can be between 3000 and 7000 euros per year. In addition, there are running costs for waste water, electricity and telephone.

Compared to holiday homes in the country (mobile homes), floating houses are “en vogue” and are in much greater demand. Statistics show that the number of holidaymakers is constantly increasing and that the demand for holiday guests all year round (200 rental days or more p.a.) is quite possible! Long-term, contractually secured rentals of berths guarantee equity returns of > 15% p.a. for organized services per MATORIN FloatingHouse according to special accommodation options, which is gradually growing.

The decision for a good or less profitable investment stands and falls with the quality of the letting. We recommend professional rental agencies.
A well-planned approach ensures long-term rental security for investors. This not only in the high season, but also in the off-season with less occupancy.
