Don't waste your money

We were very excited to rent this yacht and the location was great BUT we weren't notified that there was no a/c. The A/C only worked in 1 room so it was steaming hot being that it's summer. It was very small, it had roaches and had a really bad smell. The radio attached to the wall didn't work, the TV had about 5 channels. It was terrible for the price we paid.

One of a kind experience

This is a must stay if you're in Destin and looking for a one of a kind experience. Everything was perfect. Location and view were the best. Nestled in a very quiet and safe private marina. I cant wait to be back soon. I have booked for next month already!

Great vacation getaway

We had a great time renting the houseboat with my friends. The management was very accommodating. Rooms were comfy and very clean. The view of the harbor was amazing. We rented the pontoon and had great fun at Crab Island. This boat rocks! We will be back soon
