Birthday weekend

This place is beyond amazing. Small but perfectly formed. So cute inside, spotlessly clean, absolutely would 100% recommend.

Convenient location to activities in upper keys. Small kids enjoyed the loft. Fun adventure to stay in the boat for a weekend.

Best lil spot in the Keys!!!

We had the time of our Life @ Mangrove Marina. We stayed in the TARPON. Huge space for 2 people, super clean, and everything you need!!! We enjoyed the quiet pool area, and had a few cold ones at the Tiki Bar, with José and his adorable son. We didn't want to leave when our time was done, but we'll definitely be back!!!

Unique and very enjoyable experience!

It was just two of us for 5 days but it would still be comfortable with a couple more people. Easy to check in and out and work with the staff. We never needed anything. They gave great recommendations on food in the area. The location is excellent, easy parking and close to but not too close to the main road. The Tarpon boat is close to others but we still felt we had enough privacy. The boat does rock a little with wind and waves, so if you are sensitive to that something to be aware of. I'm relatively sensitive but it wasn't enough to bother me, in fact it added to the experience. It was very clean. For some reason, every shop in the keys uses that purple fabuloso cleaner. It was VERY strong on the boat. Even after venting with the windows and doors open for awhile it was overpowering. If we come back, we might request a different cleaner is used prior to our check in. After a day out exploring the keys, it was great to sit on the balcony, have a couple drinks and watch the sunset. Highly recommend this place.
