Very nice place. Everything you need is around. The house is clean, beautiful and has everything you need. Very friendly and welcoming staff. We rented a boat here on very favorable terms and spent a wonderful day fishing and snorkeling on the reefs. We highly recommend this place.

Highly recommended! Clean, comfortable and quite place to stay. Very accommodating, they allowed us a late checkout since fishing charter ended after lunch.

This is our second time staying here. My husband and I love the idea of a “Hotel on the water” literally! The boathouse is a great idea for a hotel. First we love the originality, then the cleanliness and comfort. The boathouses are compact but extremely comfortable. We will continue staying here when we come down to the Keys!
Really nice houseboats and in a central location. They are still getting the amenities and area around the property finished up. Will definitely be 5 stars when they do. Great idea for a key trip.

Love the boat
Perfect location, perfect accommodations, fun place to stay
Very peaceful. Plenty of room. Like glamping on the water. We used grill and had plenty of room for guests. Viewed fireworks from sombrero beach staying on the property. Convenient to publix and gas station.
