Floating Heaven Group Of House Boats

it was really a great experience i had with my family. i will rate Floating heaven 4.5 out of 5. My journey started with a bad experience but ended with lots of sweet memories.to start with i reached Dal Lake Ghat no 2 (as a tourist i booked house boat on dal lake. i wasn't aware if there is any other lake too which have house boat). i called the house boat and said i am waiting on Ghat 2 and every one sis saying there is no Floating heaven in Dal lake. Bang suprise 1: my house boat is on Nigeen lake. where is it? according to locals it a grave yard and it has worst facilities(which is not true dal lake people dont want customers to go Nigeen )I was scared and upset about the booking i made but ultimately i had to go and visit the place so that i can take a call about staying or look for other options. Now come the good part. i reached Tbe pickup point of nigeen lake Gate 2. i was welcomed warmly, i was reluctanat and concerend due to security reason (which was not at all needed) so i asked can i see the housr boat first and get assured that i am safe. then i was told ki "janab app yaha mehman hai, sab kuch ham par do" the guy who was taking us to house boat in his shikar started singing kashmiri songs for us which as also a great experience. now i reached the boat, as soon as I entered what a beauty. the grand entrance with Mugal wodden carving on all the walls and arangements were elegant. now time to see my room.. oh its so huge. wawoooo so nice, yar this bigger than my own appartment bed room. very nicely organised, wood work, well cleaned , sanatized, bathroom neat and clean. all superb. i am too happy. food was awasome dinner breakfast. on our special request head chef prepared sweets for us too. now was i missing Dal lake experience? yes may be but i was feeling more relaxed and there was no noise which is present at Dal lake overall i would recommend if anyone wants to spend quality time with family and enjoy house boat then please go for Nigeen lake house boat that too "Floating Heaven"..quite place to spend quality time with family..friendly staffwell organised and sanatized room

The place is perfect and is so peaceful that you cannot just put it in words. Host Mushtaq Dunno bhai is very welcoming and humble made sure of all the comfort. The caretaker Yusuf bhai was also very caring and entertained us all the time. Mehraz Dunno bhai was with us all the time in our trip and took us to all places Sonamarg, Gulmarg and pahalgam. Perfect view from the boat and shikara was always available if you want to step out. It was a memorable trip and floating heaven house boat added much charm to it. Highly recommended stay. And if only I can give more than 5 star.Privacy, safety, mesmerising view and service.

A really good experience staying in a house boat.. The warmth of the people in Kashmir wins u over.. The owner Mushtaq was extremely courteous in providing all the information we required for our Leh journey onwards.. We had some really good interactions with Mushtaq and his Father.. We enjoyed some amazing food in dinner.. The Shikara ride was awesome and interaction with the locals really makes you think that everything is Normal in Kashmir.. People.. I would request on behalf of these people that please visit Kashmir.. It is truely Heaven on Earth..

Awesome houseboat with amazing hospitality. Especial thanks to Mushtaq bhai and his family to make this trip a sweet and memorable one. The interior decoration of the houseboat is fabulous. Me and my wife stayed there for 3 days and believe in me, this was the ultimate trip I had ever. We went to Sonemarg via horse riding with Tariq bhai and had lots of fun @ Glacier. We had Shikara rides all over Dal Lake in the evening with Shakeel bhai. Once again heartiest thanks to everyone for this lovely and memorable trip.
