Amazing Adventure

“Staying on this houseboat in Key West was such a fun adventure! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how well-equipped and comfortable the space was. It had all the amenities we needed, and the night was incredibly calm, making for a peaceful and restful stay. Waking up to the gentle sounds of the water was a unique and relaxing experience. If you’re looking for something different from a traditional hotel but still want comfort and convenience, this is a fantastic choice. We’d absolutely stay again!”

A treasure!

My friend and I absolutely loved staying on this sweet houseboat!!! It is charming and has everything you need for a relaxing stay! The sunset, sunrise and stars were beautiful. The owners are fantastic! Everything was explained well and communication before and after the stay was great! If we ever make it back to Florida, we will plan our trip around this VRBO!! It’s perfect!!!

Peaceful, serene and comfortable

Communication ahead of time was excellent. Tony and Allie are great hosts. The boat was comfortable and serene in such a quiet, wonderful setting moored in the Gulf. Toni and Allie were very accommodating to our request. We enjoyed an on-time check-in and check out. The process was made easy. The most beautiful part of this stay was the view from the water of the water. I will stay here again if I come back to Key West.

Great place to getaway and relax!

This was an absolute dream come true vacation. The owners were incredible and very helpful. We would love to do this again! Actually we didn’t really want to leave. Tony and Ally were not only genuinely kind but also very informative. They made this stay remarkable for us.

Absolutely amazing

My fiancé and best friend stayed here for an entire week while celebrating a birthday. I could say 101 things about this place and the hospitality that was given while here. They accommodated everything that we needed and we were able to have a great mix of alone time and time and on the town. The experience itself is so worth it. It was relaxing and beautiful. They went out of there way each day to get us to and from the boat and would definitely stay here again. Thank you so much!

Perfect place to relax and regroup

Wild One was the perfect getaway for a couple looking for quiet time to relax from technology and enjoy the ocean and wildlife. We decided to take all that we needed with us for our short getaway so that we didn’t have to leave the boat until our departure; however Tony and Ally make it very easy to get back to land if we chose to do so. They checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed and offered to pick us up if we changed our mind. Checking in and checking out was easy, the paddleboard at the boat was super fun and something we hadn’t tried before. We hope to return again in the future, highly recommend this boat and the great hosts along with it.
