Unique and Fun

This is definitely not 5-star accommodations, so if you're looking for that, look elsewhere. However, it suited our group of three guys well--close to Key West and reasonably priced for a couple of nights. We basically only needed a place to sleep, and it was a unique and fun option that met all of our needs.

Key West Adventure

We expected that staying on a working fishing boat would be different. While the accommodations were less than luxurious the experience was over the top. The old Key West life style was fabulous - tropical breezes, swaying palms, the gentle rocking of the deck, the warm glow of the open air restaurant, and great food. Captain Eddie touched base often to make sure we had everything we needed.

No frills boat-stay

The Safe Harbor Marina in Stock Island (where the boat is docked) is a very low-key, old school feeling location. The listing is straightforward and describes the experience you have as a guest very well. It’s kind of like camping, but more secure. Capt Eddie is a great communicator and Hogfish bar next door is great.

As an old retired boat captain, I certainly enjoyed my stay aboard "Capt. Andy!" It brought back old memories and I couldn't have asked for better surroundings. Thanks Capt. Eddie!

If I could give this 10 stars I would.

This boat was amazing. Very clean and comfortable but the best parts were the location and the locals. Everyone we talked to said this was the old Key west and it was a gem. Just being in Eddie’s boat was so peaceful and relaxing and he made our stay remarkable. He met us at the dock upon arrival and went above and beyond to make our stay the best ever. He had so many good recommendations. His boat is located about 50 feet from the Hogfish grill and the food was so very good. Especially the lobster bisque and the bar was never loud. We enjoyed sitting outside relaxing and the sunsets. And the full kitchen made it easy for us to prepare meals. We will definitely be going back and staying in Eddie’s boat again. A true gem with a spectacular host.

Come Aboard

This is a charter fishing boat but despite that fact, it’s plenty big enough to be comfortable and meticulously clean. The host was accommodating and communicating with him was flawless with immediate responses to whatever my needs might have been.

Great new experience !

The boat was a fun change of venue! Boat was very clean. It's at a quiet marina next to a great restaurant. The owner had wonderful communication and was very accommodating. Everything was exactly as described in the listing. The A/C was great and the bunks were surprisingly more comfortable than I anticipated. Easy Uber ride to downtown key west. We would stay here again!

What an amazing place to stay when hotels in key west get expensive.

It's in a marina next to a fabulous restaurant, so no kayaking out to a mooring ball sailboat. We were able to drop in kayaks and paddle around key west. The boat Capt was so gracious. We will always book here !!!!!!!

Weekend in the Keys

Capt Eddies vessel the Capt Andy was as expected and explained. Very clean, comfortable, and close to Key West. The neighborhood getting to the dock isnt the best, but it is quiet, parking can be a little of a challenge, but Eddie has that covered with a reserved spot for his vessal. Just 3 slips away from the Hogfish grill witch has amazing food at reasonable prices. If your looking for something diffrent and something extremely relaxing than the normal VBRO, the Capt Andy is a fantastic choice.

Came to see Jimmy Buffett....

Came to see Jimmy Buffett perform so staying on a boat was icing on the cake, not to mention the Hogfish Bar and Restaurant is right next door. Beds have a thin-ish mattress that were way more comfortable than you would think. I loved staying on the boat and may do it again next time I visit Key West, with my daughters

Amazing! Perfectly authentic

We could not be happier with our lodging for our trip. We both camp in rv's and campers often. This was very much the marine equivalent of what I'm used to traveling in with my RV. The owner is very transparent and up front, about all information, we requested as we were very unfamiliar with houseboats. It could not have been easier to keep the boat perfect temperature for our stay and we had plenty of electricity for charging our various devices and equipment for our stay. The Marina was more than hospitable with multiple showers/houses with running plumbing with locking doors on both the house and the private bath/shower rooms. The boat has a "head" which is under the standard "RV" principle. The view was beautiful, a bar and grill were a stone's throw away, and the hum of the boat in the lower bunks kept us sleeping like babies. Best stay ever, I have GOT to come back! PS, you HAVE to watch a sunset on the bow!!!!!!

Safe Harbor get away

It's exactly what we expected for staying on a fishing boat. No frills, bunks, shower and a terlit! The place was ship shape. And even the keyless entry worked fine. Lol! Eddie our host was great. Made sure we were comfortable. At night after the Hogs breath restaurant next door shut down, it was peaceful. Mornings the same. Would stay there again.

Our first boat adventure!

This was our first time staying on a boat and it was awesome!! Captain Eddie was very helpful and in communication with us throughout our whole stay making sure everything was operating correctly and that our needs were met. Everyone was very friendly and we were walking distance from a pool and a restaurant/bar. Working shower and toilet were very nice! 100% recommend the stay, we had a blast. Thanks Eddie and crew!

The boat was pretty clean for a charter boat. Reminded me of an old camper. But was just fine for what I needed. Location was great! Had a hotel pool and 2 restaurants right at the doc and a nice breakfast place about 20 minute walk away.

A few things to mention

You can’t use the stove. We were told it was dangerous. The utensils and silverware were in a large plastic container and were dirty and sticky. Cookware and cleaning supplies, etc. thrown under sink No serving bowls except 1 Large plastic bowl. It was also dirty. There were only 3 bath towels, no hand towels, and no washcloths. We had to buy a couple of washcloths, and made do without hand towels. The bathroom sink was dirty. The shower has a window with no way to cover it. We went to dollar tree and got tape and a black plastic tablecloth to cover it up. And it worked fine. The water pump failed and the water heater failed and then kitchen sink faucet stopped working as well. The owner tried to fix quickly but had to order parts. The location was perfect!.

Key West stay

Property owner should mention on VRBO that stove in galley cannot be used. Utensils in galley were mixed together in plastic tub next to sink and had to be cleaned. Sink in bathroom (head) was not clean, old toothpaste etc. had to clean first thing myself. Disappointed in what we paid for. Otherwise, very nice Marina, nice surroundings and very relaxing. Great area, near to everything. First time I can’t give a 5star rating to all the other VRBO properties we have rented.
