FIRST LEVEL: Enter the boat from the cushioned floor front deck through full size sliding glass doors and step into the air-conditioned, high ceiling (7'4"), crisp white and gloss black trimmed wheelhouse/entry foyer. Ceilings are 7'4" throughout the entire boat and all exterior decks have cushion decking underfoot.
Two solid maple pocket doors ahead lead to the Master and Guest Staterooms (bedrooms) on your left and right. An indoor spiral staircase leads upstairs to the second floor living area and exterior 2nd level decks.
MASTER STATEROOM: To the left, the Master Stateroom is down a short hall flanked with three floor to ceiling windows and a gently curving maple paneled wall. A 42" tv sits above granite counters topping a 9 drawer solid maple built-in dresser with matching granite top 3 drawer maple bedside table beside your plush adjustable queen size bed.
There are two closets en suite with space for luggage and gear in one and hangers for clothes in both. The attached private bath has cool tile floors, a large tiled shower with frame-less glass enclosure and a two flush mount sinks set in a matching granite topped vanity with generous mirrored upper cabinets. A full sliding glass door at the rear of the master stateroom provides access to and from the 1st level stern deck with a two-story outdoor spiral staircase to the second level aft deck and the 500 square foot furnished sun deck on the 3rd level above.
GUEST STATEROOM: From the entry foyer to the right, The Guest Stateroom, while smaller than the Master, features the same luxurious adjustable queen bed and its own private tile floor bathroom with large, glass enclosed shower with gently curving tile wall. The flush mount sink in granite counter are topped with a spacious maple vanity and large mirrored cabinet doors.
In the bedroom you'll find a bedside 3 drawer built-in maple cabinet and another 3 drawer cabinet, more granite tops and a 32" wide full height hanging closet. A 32" tv is also set on an articulating wall mount for easily adjustable viewing in bed. Light filtering and black-out blinds cover the 5 foot wide operable bedside window.
SECOND LEVEL: Upstairs, On the 2nd level there are large fore and aft decks. The forward deck has a wide view of the harbor, bay and ocean beyond. On the stern deck, a cushioned seating area sits 4-6 comfortably with surrounding views of green mangroves topped with blue ocean and sky.
Between the second level decks, in the spacious 30 foot long 14 foot wide Main Salon and Galley area (living room and kitchen) there's air conditioned space to relax and entertain. A stylish sectional sofa and very comfortable recliner face 3 floor to ceiling windows with plenty of room to relax, watch a movie or just take in the view. The unique design of the sectional sofa allows it to convert into a queen size bed for your additional (5th and 6th) guests.
More than three quarters of the 2nd level is wrapped in glass. The floor to ceiling windows, sliding glass doors on either end and 5 more windows bring tropical blue-green Caribbean waters that float just above lush green mangroves into the living space as sailboats and yachts bob in the harbor.
In the galley, next to to the living room, more granite tops the kitchen counter with full size stainless steel double sink, full size fridge, dishwasher, oven, microwave, and Keurig combo coffee maker.
The adjacent 5 ft x 3 ft granite breakfast island/bar with 4 comfortable low-backed, adjustable height bar stools is a popular spot for hanging out, sharing company and catching a game or movie on the 56" 4K HD tv.
In the evenings you control the hidden lighting system that glows softly to surround the room to with colors to accompany your evening mood. There's dozens of colors to chose from and you can customize the scene with hundreds of combinations from cool blues, pale yellows and greens to warm oranges, purples and fiery red.
THIRD LEVEL: And Finally, up on the 3rd floor sun deck there's comfortably cushioned lounge seating for 10 and a round day bed with sunshade for catching some tropical rays. The truly panoramic view overlooking the open Caribbean ocean is difficult to fully describe. Incomparable, blazing sunsets, stargazing away from the lights of downtown and stunning sunrises. Epic photo ops.
Hope to see you soon!

1st Houseboat Stay
This was our first houseboat vacation and it didn’t disappoint! We love seeing all the hustle and bustle of Key West but loved coming back to our peace and tranquillity each night and waking up and having coffee on one of the decks! We will definitely do it again!

We stayed here for a few nights for a bachelorette party. We had a blast!
Great views, enjoyed the pool, and we got the opportunity to meet the host, Brad. He was very nice and understanding. Very genuine and down to earth. Boat was clean and had everything we needed. Short drive to shops, restaurants and the party scene. Awesome time!

Wonderful accommodations! Boat was very comfortable. There is nothing within walking distance, but we managed. Should probably change the cover picture to a more current photo, beautiful views!

Beautiful Houseboat- Amazing View
One of the tallest boast in the Marina. Top deck is amazing to watch sunrises and sunsets- gorgeous! Would like to see a few lounge chairs available on the top deck. Seat cushions could use a refresh. Beds were comfortable and we loved the amenities at the Marina.

Unique Experience
The Traquilo was an unique and interesting experience. Definitely beats a normal hotel room. The accommodations were very nice and the addition of the Yacht Club amenities made it even better.

Clean nice place to stay
Brad was a good host, but it’s the only time I’ve had a property manager or owner invite themselves over during a stay. Small mix up about keeping a boat next to the house boat, but got it worked out with the marina manager.
