Fabulous place and location. Can not wait to go back
We had an amazing time during our stay at Yatch Haven. The house-boat was more spacious than expected with everything that we needed. They have kayaks and bikes you can grab (first come, first serve) which contributed to a wonderful vacation! We even got to see a manatee! Sombrero Beach is very close which was a plus.

We really enjoyed staying at Yacht Haven, the floating rooms were very comfortable and the views in the morning and dusk were outstanding. We were visited by manatees almost daily and the other marine life was fun to watch as well.
We liked Marathon for what it had to offer and Yacht Haven was nicely located for getting out and about.
We would not hesitate to stay there again.
This was a very unique place to stay. A house boat permanently docked. Fully equipped with a kitchen and utensils. Great location. Sitting on the front deck was a nice treat.
We enjoyed our stay here. It was quiet with exception of early morning rooster calls (not fault of property mgt). We used the pool facility and enjoyed the sun and swim at a clean pool. The staff at Yacht Haven accommodated all of our requests for clean towels during our stay. The AC was quiet and provided cool lodging.
The Aqua-cabins were very clear and comfortable. The idea of staying in a cabin floating in the water was amazing. Only a gentle rocking with fish jumping just off the rear deck. With a Publix just across the street and many restaurants within walking distance made it a very convenient place to stay. We will be going back as soon as we can.
