About this property
The LOVE Boat !
A desirable water retreat awaits you and your loved one on the water, 35ft long x 10x wide Catamaran Cruiser!! All the comforts of home in this 20 ft cabin while floating in a cozy quiet marina in the OBX! Two Kayaks and gift certificate to local Kill Devil Hills restaurant included! An on-site restaurant, Stripers Bar & Grille, offers an eclectic menu and waterfront dining at its best. Float with us while remaining plugged into your own personal WiFi!
The space
This space adopted a Whale Shark - Travel with Purpose when you stay with us and assist in global efforts to help save this beautiful endangered species!
Please Note: Pool and Clubhouse (with pool table and gym) have recently reopened however the Association has the right to close these amenities at anytime. While this is a bonus to be used during your stay, please do not allow this to bear any weight on your experience with the space you are renting!
Shallowbag Bay Marina is a 75-slip marina located just off the intercoastal waterway in North Carolina's wonderful Outer Banks. The Outer Banks recreational area is one of the fastest growing coastal areas in the United States. The Outer Banks is characterized by barrier islands, natural beaches, sand dunes and beautiful marsh land areas.
The Catamaran Cruiser includes all of the bare necessities one needs and all the comforts to give you that home away from home feeling...including an outdoor charcoal grill within the community!!
Water Condo", "Floating Cottage", "Cabin on the Water" are typical descriptions of Catamaran Cruisers' newest houseboat concept has arrived in MANTEO, NC! Thoughtful custom design and beautifully finished inside and out, the Catamaran Cruiser features an open and bright main salon, while the master stateroom features a panoramic water view and a private deck. 2020 Smart TV in living room! 170 sq feet of outdoor decking!
The shower on-board is there for your convenience, just be mindful of your use when you are able!
Hot water tank is 12 gallons and takes about 25 minutes to refill and therefore you may enjoy the amenities of in-ground plumbing at the easy to access just a few steps away clubhouse or ship store (total of 4 showers) if you enjoy longer showers and would rather all parties shower at the same time to expedite the getting ready process.
New technology toilet onboard for your use!
Guest access
Full access of the boat and all its amenities with the exception of the ability to drive boat! Able to park car for free in Marina parking lot...just steps away from boat! Marina amenities include full separate men's and women's bathrooms with showers, laundry facilities, and on-site waterfront restaurant!
Other things to note
Please bring your own beach/pool towels.
One bath towel and wash cloth provided per person.

About the host
Hosted by Gia Nicole Palacorolla

HELLO There! I moved to the OBX from Ellicott City, MD in 2013. I studied Human Nutrition, Foods & Exercise with an emphasis in Exercise & Health Promotion at Virginia Tech & put that knowledge to work on a daily basis as a Pilates Instructor at the only classical Pilates Studio in the OBX, The Presidio of Pilates! In addition to my education, my love for business & entrepreneurial spirit led me to Hosting! I CoHost multiple spaces in locations throughout the United States and as a Professional Referrer of hosting I take great joy in teaching folks how to start their own business hosting by themselves or with assistance. I have taught a course at the local church - The Path To Financial Freedom! I LOVE to TRAVEL - so reach out if you would like me to teach a course in YOUR home town in the US or Internationally!
Things that bring me great joy:
1. My relationships with my K9 Medusa, kitties Oli & Sassy, close friends & family, clients & guests!
2. Water (referring to all large bodies of water....not the beverage! ;)
3. Beach walks & Podcasts!
4. Meditation
5. Pilates
6. Quotes!!
I am grateful for every guest, & potential new host, I correspond with! I look forward to hosting YOU, your loved ones, and many more in the months and years to come...truly a labor of love! Should you need assistance in hosting your own property, I would be delighted to help you with that AS WELL!
