Super cute, had everything we needed. Only stayed for the night but would’ve been nice to stay a little longer and sit out on the beautiful deck. AC in the living room and main bedroom was nice, but the other bedroom was a bit hot so we opted to stay on the pull out couch. Would stay here again for sure.

Very old yacht. Vertical ladders to get onboard and steep stairs throughout. Had electrical/fuse issues so light switches didn’t work, had lamps to use. Very tight spaces - yes, even for a boat/yacht. Had trouble checking in because host had lost phone, was replaced by checkout time. Did have musty odor due to older vessel. Was a nice stay after the hiccups of checking in.

The place was filthy and it stank. We couldn’t stay; we left after 10 minutes. The place was unlocked with no key to be found, and a wallet was left on the couch (along with trash) making us think they may have double booked and the other tenant was just out for the evening. Still no response from the owner, and no way to get our money back from a place that we never stayed in because it was so gross.

Tina was a thoughtful host, but amentities were not as reflected. Most importantly (1) the main bed was not a "double bed" but a twin sized bed, not suitable for sharing and (2) the toilet is not a standard toilet but a pump boat tolilet requring water to be poured from the sink - this may be standard on a boat, but it was a suprise to folks who may be less familiar with boats. There were some other issues which might be attribuatable to the folks before us trashing the place.That said, it was a very budget stay where things are often much more expensive in Key West. My kids did enjoy eating breakfast sitting on the deck, looking out at the bay. If you don't count on two people sleeping in the double bed and don't mind the ship toilet that is the main bedroom, its a decent budget stay.
