The Aquavillas, which are located here in the Pampas marina, are produced by the same company and therefore have insurance agreements in place.

Insurance and loans are particular challenges. When there's a big storm, it can be a bit uncomfortable, but it happens very rarely. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E2188-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-130461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E2188-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E2188-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E2188-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E2188-433x244.jpg 433w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E2188-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.freedomtravel.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_E2188.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Sometimes you have to shovel snow from the roof ... so as not to tilt.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-vad-ar-det-basta-med-att-bo-i-husbat\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Vad_ar_det_basta_med_att_bo_i_husbat\"><\/span>What is the best thing about living in a houseboat?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The best thing about living in a houseboat is that it feels like we are close to nature, while being close to the city.
