We had a wonderful time. It is an older, smaller boat but we enjoyed it. There is a port a pot in the cabin but there is a huge shower and bathroom under the carport. We were able to fish right off the boat. Frank will answer texts pretty quickly.

It was 6 miles from key west which we liked. It sits in an inlet so you don’t see much ocean or beach. Property had a separate bath house. Bathroom wasn’t really usable & tv cord was missing so no tv (wasn’t there to watch tv) If you have problems with close spaces, it wouldn’t be for you

Staying on the boat was just like home on the lake. Great to be on the water. So much better than a typical resort/hotel.

Excellent value
The host was very approachable. The price was very good for the Key West area which made it my choice. Having never spent any time in a sailboat, it took a bit of time getting used to the tight quarters. I was glad they have a full standard bathroom adjacent to the boat. I’d stay here again when in the area.

Perfect base for a few days in the Keys
The catamaran was clean and comfortable even during the rain. The additional bath was perfect making our stay comfortable. Slept very well and enjoyed the host’s communications. We used it as a base of operations for three activity filled days. Would book again!

Amazing unique experience
So glad we stayed here! It is exactly what I was looking for. A unique way to visit Key West. It was nice to open the hatches and have a nice breeze and great view of the stars. He has a nice bathroom with shower in the car port. The host was great with communication and was really cool. Definitely recommend

We stayed on the boat over Spring Break. There were 3 of us and we could have fit 1 more. Fitting six would be tight. The owners let us use kayaks and the shower/bathroom near the parking was excellent to clean off after a day at the beach. It’s 15 minutes to Smathers Beach and 20 minutes to Old Town.

Clean and friendly
We had a good time staying on Franks boat. We mostly just slept there and had no issues. Frank was a good host. The boats a/c worked well. Place could use a women’s touch. That would make it even better. Little things like a sheet and maybe a few more amenities like paper towel and such. For the price compared to renting an expensive place in Key West it was well worth it.

Not fancy but did the job. Absolutely lovely hosts!!! And located in a very safe neighbourhood on a canal. Nice to have access to a nice big bathroom with shower although there is a small boat bathroom on board. Ours sons slept well. Boat is older so don't expect it to be fancy but we had comfy beds, a fridge, a microwave and K-Cup coffee machine. Loved using the kayaks/paddleboards too! Thank you!

Great stay
Frank was a Wonder host. We had a great time. There were 6 adults and 3 little dogs. We stayed for Fantasy Fest for 3 nights, so weren't in the property for long times, basically just to sleep. Having a bug bathroom outside was a big plus. The area outside the catamaran was big enough for all of us to sit and relax with nice breeze. Neighborhood was quiet and short ride to Key West. We would stay again. Thanks Frank!
