Why the Owner Chose Private Homes, Historic Seaport
Key West for starters, probably can boast about having the overall best weather in the world. The Historic Seaport as the hub of exactly why guests come to Key West makes our choice easy; we are in the center of excellent well known activities, from famous Schooner Wharf Bar, several wonderful "locals favorite" restaurants, a short stroll down the harbor into downtown Key West for the Duval Crawl, museums, fish aquarium and the nightly Mallory Square Sunset with Arts Festival.
The Unique Benefits at this Boat & Breakfast
Once you arrive, and off load your bags, relax and find out why so many come back again to experience living like a local yacht owner. You will be staying onboard in comfortable Key West lifestyle and sailing the American Caribbean surrounded by the pristine waters of our beautiful sub tropical setting, completed with your optional visit to the most wonderful reefs in the country, entering the magical world of what makes Key West a valued destination vacation. After a busy day of exploring, shopping, sailing, you will drift off to sleep in a 360 degree protected harbor after watching the sunset and the moonrise over the docks. Stay/sail charters gives you a taste of the Old Key West, as a wonderful option to the normal Inn or home experiences.

Owner's Map of Private Homes, Historic Seaport
After extensive travel in the Greek Islands, English Channel, and South America, Mexico,Caribbean Islands, then the Florida Keys, Key West won Captain Albert's heart for sharing sailing and dockside experience with new and old friends. "For more than a decade, I have had the distinct pleasure to have met and entertained interesting and dynamic guests at the historic seaport, with two slips side by side E-11 & E-12. Operating as charter vessels with a "boat and breakfast" concept as well as at sea adventures, weddings and island hopping, I can offer a menu of custom and private charters to suit each guest's wishes. Recognized as one of the top 2 floating inns in the USA by CNN, featured in Women's Health as an escape as well as a unique option for staying in Key West. I have sailed over 40,000 sea miles and can help instruct guests who are wishing to learn more about sailing. Come and stay then sail with us for your next vacation stay in Key West!"
