This is a very unique location with beautiful 360° views of Miami. The host Alejandro is so kind and accommodating, and his communication was better than I could have hoped. We did not have to worry at all. The living area is close quarters but very cute, clean, organized. Safe for female solo traveling as well. Would book again! Important note, the boat is anchored IN THE BAY, not AT THE DOCK. Alejandro provides a water taxi to and from the dock whenever needed! Make sure to have snacks and drinks with ya!

Fun Boat weekend

Terrific 360 degree views and a unique experience. Alejandro and Brigit are excellent hosts, very accommodating on providing info and getting us to/from the sailboat. As others have mentioned, it is "glamping". A bit tight for sleeping if more than 2 people. The perfect spot to enjoy coffee with the sunrise and sunset cocktails-:). We had a wonderful time!

Peaceful escape and excellent service

Excellent wind-down, just what we needed. I made an incorrect assumption that boat was in a slip, so we would be able to come and go on our own. Boat is tied down in bay. Had I known this, I would've planned a little differently for packing ice, provisions, etc. However, all worked out fine, as Host was available to transport us back and forth from dock and boat as needed. And being away from the dock/slip made the experience so much more relaxing!

Alejandro was a great host. I had a very zen time on the boat for 2 nights/3 days. I got really lucky with the weather so it was warm, sunny and no rain. Alejandro was very responsive and easily brought me back and forth a few times a few times. Note the boat is in the middle of bay so you need a boat to get you back and forth but it made the experience cooler and more relaxing. I loved my morning dunks into the bay, coffee, and watching the sunset. I recommend this for max 2 maybe 3 people. I was there just by myself and I felt safe and enjoyed my alone time.

Not as Advertised – Know Before You Book This stay was very different from what was advertised, and there are several important things future guests should know before booking. The boat has only a 30‑gallon water tank with no hot water. You cannot flush toilet paper; all used paper must be placed in a trash bag and taken with you when you leave. There is no refrigerator—only a cooler, so you must bring your own ice. Power is extremely limited: just one outlet powered by a solar inverter. There is no air conditioning, which was very uncomfortable in South Florida. The beds are not standard size, the living space is very cramped, and this listing will not comfortably sleep six adults unless two sleep outside on the deck. Overnight parking is not included and must be paid separately. We were told where to park, but we were not informed there was a fee, and we ended up receiving a parking ticket. Transportation to the boat is via a very small skiff that had standing water inside. Guests must have good mobility to get in and out of the skiff and to climb a ladder onto the boat—this should be clearly disclosed. After going ashore on day one, the weather became rough and we were unable to safely return to the boat, forcing us to find a hotel. We ultimately did not stay any of the three nights we reserved. This experience could work for very adventurous travelers who are prepared for extreme limitations, but the listing needs much clearer and more accurate descriptions.
