Great experience all around! The host was very responsive. The location was perfect with an easy walk to multiple restaurants and bars. It also has a full kitchen with a great set up to cook in. We loved sitting on the back of the boat drinking coffee each morning and waving at the fishing and dive boats heading out. We will definitely rent here again.

We really enjoyed staying on Johnny and Ellen‘s houseboat! It was the first time we had that experience and it exceeded our expectations! There was so much room, the bed was so comfortable! It was very well stocked with many amenities, including wine, coffee, all kinds of toiletries, and the beach chairs were much appreciated! It was relaxing sitting up on the upper deck, watching the boats go in and out while watching the sunrise and sunset! Johnny was excellent at communicating with us and was very approachable with any questions asked! I wish we could have stayed longer than two nights! I would definitely recommend this experience to everyone!
