Quick Spring Break
We brought our girls down for a trip of a lifetime to stay in a houseboat and swim with the dolphins. This location is great for kids and families of big kids or teens. They loved the pool and we loved the covered picnic tables, beach ambiance and vibe.

What we were looking for!
This houseboat was just what we were looking for in the keys. Room for two of us, very clean and the staff was helpful. We spent lots of time on the “porch” in the mornings and evenings.

Wonderful place!
Our stay was great! It was chilly the first night but thankfully there was a small heater on the boat we were able to use. Mike and Ace were great upon arrival and for anything that we needed! Would definitely recommend staying here again and we will be back!! It was our first trip to the Keys and we loved staying on a houseboat. The marina was quiet and the people were friendly!

fun and unique place to stay
House boat was clean and had everything we needed for a short girls getaway. Great location, close to grocery store and fun activities. Loft mattresses weren't the most comfortable but ok for the kids.

It was nice getting to experience what living on a boat in a marina would be like. Getting to meet people from all over the world living on their boats and the marina bar is a great place to do that! Live music and an awesome bartender made it our nightly hang out

Wonderful family vacation
We had a great time staying in the marina. Everyone was very nice. The facilities were clean and within easy walking distance. Good restaurants and things to do within short driving distance It was less than a 2-hour drive for a day in Key West. One thing to make sure of is to call the marina to double check on your reservation. VRBO site had us booked and paid, but it didn't go through to the marina until after we checked in.
