About the host

Hosted by Paula Piazza

Host profile image
We bought this boat from another person that did rental from a marina. We live on an acre on the water in a quiet bayou. My husband (Fil) is retired air force of almost 30 years . I am a retired cardiac nurse. We love the outdoors and are fairly active with running and working on construction projects.

Why they chose this property

My husband wanted a house boat and I agreed if I could rent it out. Now during a time of a pandemic we offer a safer alternative to high volume high rises and still enjoy the water and beaches that this area has to offer

What makes this property unique

You can swim in our water or a 10 min trip to the most beautiful beaches in the world! We are 7 miles from Destin, 20 miles from the famed 30A. There is fishing here, at the beach or the pier just a few miles away.
