About this docked boat rental

It doesn’t get much more unique than the Aqua Villas at Mangrove Marina. Come experience the adventure of living on the water, in a well-appointed houseboat. Imagine waking up, sipping coffee on your balcony and dipping your toes in the warm bay waters… and you haven’t even left your room. After a full day of fishing, skiing, diving, hanging out enjoying the Keys life, there’s no better way to enjoy your evening than watching the sunset off your floating balcony, patio or upper deck.

This is a houseboat that is permanently docked in the marina. There are others, but this seemed the best. So here is the good, the bad, and the things I wish I had known. The good: This houseboat is probably the nicest of all of the ones available. It has three bedrooms and two bathrooms. There is an upper sun deck that lets you see the entire marina and an awesome sunset, provided the weather cooperates. It is clean, two TV's with full cable, a small kitchen, and a nice front room/dining area. Mike was really nice and very helpful. The bad: During our stay, the boat was actually listing to one side. They knew of the problem and had a plan to fix it, but it was not gonna happen for us. I would have thought some discount would be in order, but it was never offered. They gave us a pass, but it's a busy marina and we sometimes had to park in another lot. Wish I knew: It's a long way from the parking area to the boat.They have little "garden" type carts for your luggage and things. Ice makers in the fridges are not connected, so they have bagged ice at the office. There is no fishing nor swimming in the marina. Unless you have a boat or a charter, it's tough to find a good place to fish without traveling a long way. There are two centrally located grills to use, and they are not allowed on the boats. Summary: A nice stay, very unique, great sunset, price seems a little high for it though. The staff is great, parking area is small, and quite at night.

All three of us agreed that staying there beats any hotel by far. Super nice people at the marina and just can't say enough good things about staying there. Not 1 negative to report. That is coming from a retired airline employee that lived in hotels for a decade. Awesome!! Thanks for the cool memories!!

What a fun way to spend a couple of days in the Keys! The house boat was perfect for our group of 5 adults. If you love being on the water and enjoy the relaxed, laid back vibe of the marina, this is a great way to go! We saw manatee and small sharks swimming around the boat! Awesome! The sunset was beautiful from the top deck! The food truck and bar was a perfect way to end the day. Everyone is so friendly and helpful and made it super easy to check in after hours. Thank you for a great stay! We will be back!

The property was very much as described and overall it was comfortable, clean and well kept. There was an issue getting on board by the older member of the party because of the distance between the boat and pier, and also a noxious odor, at times, from one of the heads.

Stayed with a friend and our 2 teenagers and found the houseboat to be a fun home-base. It was clean and comfortable (incl comfortable beds!), with amazing views all day long from the upper deck. Cooking was somewhat limited due to the 2 burner stove top and small pots, but we figured it out. Overall, recomend this as a wonderful and interesting place to stay!

Introducing my family to keys and fishing

Introducing my family to keys and fishing

It was my inlaw’s first time saltwater fishing and they had never been out on the water around the keys. They were completely blown away by it. The house boat made it so much better. The easy access and the top deck was amazing! It was fun looking at all the other boats. The band on Wednesday night was epic!
