Very nice stay for the night before a cruise.

Ruby the property manager went above and beyond! She was extremely helpful! Our only issue was an odor of marijuana in our unit. The staff did what they could to mitigate the smell but that smell likes to linger!! In no way was it the fault of the property, only guests who dont like to follow the rules and have no consideration for the next guests! Ruby was very apologetic even though it wasnt her fault! It was the perfect place to stay the night before a cruise! Would have liked to have stayed longer!

Short weekend getaway

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The boat was very clean and tastefully decorated. The blue lights in the living room were a nice touch as long as we kept them on for a short time. I think the white lights had burned out, no big deal. There was plenty of hot water for showers. The kitchenette was perfect for small meal prep, and the refrigerator was big enough to hold food. The beds were comfy with plenty of pillows and blankets. We couldn't use the rooftop much due to the weather, but when we did, it was relaxing. The view never gets old.

Would probably stay again

It was a beautiful location on a canal with wildlife noted. The place was fairly clean but easily could have been better. The floors looked clean but after walking around the appartment with bare feet our feet were almost totally black. I mentioned this to the management people but got no reply. We even took a picture of my daughter's feet after about an hour without shoes on their floor.

Beautiful, peaceful getaway

Such a beautiful gem, we can't wait to return. Sparkling clean with comfortable beds and beautiful views on the water, enjoying sunset and watching the birds at sunrise. Dolphins swam by the boat in the morning, and there's a lovely restaurant with tiki torches at the marina for drinks or dinner. We can't wait to return!
