We were very happy that we returned to the boat after not being there for six years. We thought everything was in excellent condition and enjoyed every minute of our stay. We also went to the heated swimming pool every day. We were disappointed we had to leave today. We will be back !

If you like difference in your regular hotel stay this property is for you. On a quiet canal in a Key Largo Marina this houseboat was perfect for a honeymooning couple. It was private quiet and near fishing, boating snorkeling and many fine restaurants. We were married on a local beach and after we spent a very romantic evening on the top deck slow dancing to soft music. The gentle rocking of the boat was very nice. Excellent host. would rent again.

It is an impressive houseboat! The furniture is very comfortable (especially the bed all the way in the back bedroom)Johnny was easy enough to communicate with (an actual street number of the marina/hotel would have been helpful in the navigational gos process of finding the boat LOL)We enjoyed relaxing on the lower deck, sipping our wine We had some rain on and off during our stay however the deck is under cover so we were still able to enjoy being outside, although the living area and kitchen are very large so never do you feel like you are “stuck” on a boat!We would return!!!

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.
