This classic 4-cabin schooner blends vintage charm with modern comfort, offering a truly unique escape on the water. Each cabin features shared queen sized beds with its own private bathroom and toilet, ensuring privacy and convenience for every guest.

There’s plenty of space on deck to relax, sunbathe, or enjoy a sunrise or sunset drink. Evenings can be spent stargazing under the open sky or enjoying indoor entertainment with board games, cards, video games, and TV.
Daytime brings endless adventure – paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing, snorkeling, swimming, or exploring hidden spots by dinghy.

Our itineraries are flexible and designed around your comfort and curiosity. With more nights booked, the journey extends into even more stunning destinations – from the dramatic limestone cliffs of *Phang Nga Bay* to the crystal-clear waters around *Koh Hong, **Koh Yao Noi, and the world-famous **Phi Phi Islands*. Each day brings new scenery, from quiet lagoons and secret beaches to vibrant marine life, perfect for snorkeling and swimming.

The Schooner Sjostrom isn’t just a place to stay – it’s an experience. Whether you’re anchored in a peaceful bay, snorkeling in turquoise waters, or sipping your morning coffee as the sun rises over the sea, you’ll quickly see why this yacht has captured so many hearts.
We look forward to welcoming you aboard and sharing the magic of the sea.

The price advertised is for *2 guests per day*.
Additional guests are charged *$450 USD per adult* and *$300 USD per child (ages 0–12)* per day.

About the host

Hosted by Donald malaise

Host profile image
Hello! I’m Doni, originally from Sweden, and my love for the sea and adventure brought me to beautiful Thailand. Together with my brother, I built this schooner in San Francisco, and it’s been both our home and our greatest adventure ever since. Sailing has always been my passion — it’s about freedom, discovery, and meeting wonderful people from around the world.

As your host, I take pride in creating a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere where guests can truly unwind and enjoy life at sea. Whether it’s sharing stories over dinner or watching the sunset from the deck, I love making every trip a memorable experience.
Welcome aboard!!

Why they chose this property

Our schooner is based in beautiful Phuket, Thailand — one of the most stunning sailing destinations in the world. The area is surrounded by turquoise waters, limestone cliffs, and hundreds of islands waiting to be explored. From the calm beauty of Phang Nga Bay to the white sandy beaches of Koh Yao Noi, Koh Yao Yai, and the world-famous Phi Phi Islands, every journey offers something truly unforgettable.

Phuket itself is a vibrant mix of Thai culture, tropical scenery, and warm hospitality. You’ll find friendly locals, colorful markets, and delicious food everywhere you go. Thai cuisine is a highlight — from spicy curries and grilled seafood to sweet mango sticky rice and fresh tropical fruits like pineapple, papaya, and coconut.

When you’re not sailing, you can enjoy exploring local fishing villages, kayaking through hidden lagoons, or relaxing on secluded beaches. In the evenings, the sunsets are breathtaking — the perfect time to unwind with a cool drink and enjoy the peaceful rhythm of the sea.

Whether you’re here for adventure, culture, or pure relaxation, Phuket and its surrounding islands offer a perfect blend of excitement and tranquility — a true paradise for travelers.

What makes this property unique

Our schooner isn’t just a place to stay — it’s a floating home filled with character, comfort, and adventure. Built with timeless craftsmanship and designed for spacious living, it offers four beautiful cabins, each with its own private bathroom. Guests can relax on the open deck, dine under the stars, or wake up to the gentle sound of the sea.

What truly makes this experience special is the freedom to explore. Instead of being anchored in one spot, you’ll sail through Thailand’s most breathtaking islands — from the limestone cliffs of Phang Nga Bay to the crystal-clear waters of Koh Yao and Phi Phi. Every journey is personalized, with delicious onboard meals, friendly crew, and peaceful moments surrounded by nature. It’s a one-of-a-kind way to discover the magic of Phuket and beyond.
