First time staying on a houseboat but will definitely not be the last. We loved sitting on the back porch watching the marine life.

A very unique stay on the houseboat, we really enjoyed it. Definitely has the old school Florida fishing village vibe, and the restaurant was great too. Will come back.

Really enjoyed the stay. All our “neighbors” were respectful of each other The boat house was clean The manatees stole the show!
My wife and I had an absolute blast staying here!!!! The Tarpon and manatees were awesome to watch. Very convenient having the restaurant and GTS Outfitters store on site. Wish the store stayed open a little bit later. The restaurant cooked our catch for us and it was amazing. We are already starting to save up so we can return sooner than later!!!

The property is in a fantastic location. The management is very responsive with questions. It has RV plumbing so won't be for everyone, but we had a blast!

Loved every minute of our stay!!! We wish that we would have booked a longer stay. Next time we definitely will!!!
Just like the pictures! It was so cool staying in a houseboat! We enjoyed the patio area, restaurant was great (happy hour 3-6) with playground ship area. Was able to see jellyfish, tarpoon, and nurse sharks! Big enough for our family of 6 with 3 beds and a fold out couch!

Stay with seniors
We were so impressed with the property. It was super clean and had all the amenities we needed. I was worried about staying on a houseboat with 3 senior parents but they had a great time. Best part was the deck in front where we could sit, relax, eat breakfast and watch the pelicans. Looking forward to staying here next time we are in the area.

Right next to busy highway. Had everything you need but not much extra. Beds were comfortable. A/C is a bother with part of the place very cold and part very hot. Unique with being on water. Basically, it is a tiny house.

The boat was nice. The second bed is located in a loft, which we could not get into. Not much headroom for the loft bed. Would be good for a kid. The shower is a bit small and could be a challenge for a taller/bigger person.
The marina is quiet, but the main road can be a bit loud. Getting to Key West from the marina takes a bit to get turned around. Found it was better to go up a couple of streets and make a couple of rights to get back to the traffic light.
The restaurant has good food. All outdoor seating.

Absolutely loved this property. Very affordable, cozy and good quality stays. Be ready for a little fish smell when walking outside! But I did not mind that.
