Great place for a family!
Loved it here!! Aimee reached out to us ahead of time to make sure we understood all of their policies, and find out if we would be checking in late or not, and then confirmed with a phone call the day of. The houseboat was clean, with a small kitchenette (microwave, fridge, sink, dishes). A/C was already going! The towels were brand new and the view was exactly what we were looking for- a calm, peaceful marina with gentle waves lapping at the docks and the sunset on full display. Walking distance to the Blonde Giraffe Key Lime Factory, and a short drive to the Winn-Dixie. Plenty of places to eat nearby, or well equipped to eat a quiet meal in. Definitely will recommend to friends and family!

The house boat has a good location, located at the end of the dock however it does serve as a buffer for high winds and wavy seas so you will experience a lot more than other houseboats located interior to this one. Also, you’re basically in a tin can as far as the walls where you can hear everything and all the neighbors can hear you. We do like all the separate living spaces and how they are utilized really nicely. Decker is up-to-date and amenities provided inside of the houseboat are what you would expect. We did have issues initially connecting the TV in the evening time to get it working properly, but Aimee the manager was easy to get a hold of after hours and talk to us through getting everything working properly. We are a family of four with two teenagers and had plenty of space to put our two teams in the loft area that has twin beds and for us to stay in the bedroom and during the daytime enjoy the living area when we were actually in the houseboat and not driving around the sightseeing.

This property appears to be going downhill. They advertise a restaurant and bar, but there is no restaurant and the bar only has beer (no set hours.) The people who live there year round on their boats are super nice but other than that it appears to need new management. The bar owner speaks no English and was playing really nasty music, which was blaring through the pool and had no clue what he was even playing. It could be super nice if the restaurant/bar were opened and new mgmt. It appears to be family owned and distention among the family members.
