The houseboat itself was not too bad. The toilet seats didn't fit the toilet so they kept sliding around and the smell was terrible. Also, outside other people who lived in the area would let their little dogs poop on the patch of grass right in front of us and then the groundskeepers came and shoveled the dog a hint of the water. Also right in front of our faces also, the walls were so thin. I could almost distinguish conversations going on in the next houseboat to the point where it kept me awake late at night

Had a wonderful time. So much to do in the area. We enjoyed the Cabana Club beach only a short drive away and included in the fee. We were there for the coldest week of the year. The maintenance gentleman, Scott and his assistant were kind enough to bring a hard to find space heater that kept us toasty warm as well a giving spot on recommendations for great places to eat. Some construction in the area but tolerable. Hope to return someday.

The house boat was extremely clean. The sheets were clean, towels, washcloths, everything was spotless. Whoever does the housekeeping did an amazing job. The cabinets had things to cook yourself a meal, and there was plenty of room to accommodate our 5 person party. It is an adorable place to stay for a long weekend. The ladies at the check in lodge were very hospitable. There is some construction going on in the area, but it does not interfere with your stay at all. I would recommend this place to anyone.

We needed a place to stay that we could park close to being that we came to dive and had a lot of gear. The closest neighbor greated us upon arrival, the atmosphere was quiet and peaceful. The boat gently rocked you to sleep at night on the comfy beds, couldn't have asked for more honestly and plan to come back.

We absolutely loved our stay here! The boat house was very cute and very clean, not a single issue the entire time. Yes, the boat will rock a bit depending on the weather, but that is to be expected when you’re floating on water. The people in the area were very friendly and the woman who we rented the boat house from was extremely nice and accommodating. She answered any questions that we had and had excellent communication. We would absolutely stay at the aqua lodges again the next time we visit Marathon! 10/10 would recommend to anyone with a small family visiting the area.

It was a very nice clean new house boat. The only problem we had was ours stuck out to far into the water and it was a very rough night the first night. There was no way to tie it down more secure to keep it from rocking so roughly. Other than that it was very nice. We had a small issue that we called about and it was immediately taken care of otherwise. Very friendly office staff. Very helpful.

The vessel itself was nice and comfortable. The surrounding area was not. It was located amongst permanent residences, one of which was undergoing renovations. The beach area was nice for one day, before being adorned with a pallet of concrete, a concrete mixer, and a load of lumber for the home being renovated. It was not the relaxing environment we were hoping for, so we ended up leaving a day early.

I'm going to try and be diplomatic and state fact rather than my opinion. My husband like it 7/10, I'm more of a 5/10 +ives- •Fantastic experience to live on a houseboat for a couple of days. There are 3 rental houseboats moored here (together with some private permanently moared boats) •Spotlessly clean, beds were really comfy, loads of fresh white towels •Kitchen was really well stocked. No oven, but not a problem. 2 ring hob and microwave was adequate •There's a lovely beach area to sit around a camp fire, or eat on the picnic benches, small quay to fish but no swimming allowed by the quay. •The A/C broke on our last day and the company came out within 30mins to try to fix the problem, instead they moved us to another boat. -ive •Previous review from Tara (aug2024) mentioned kayaks, bicycles and a pool. There is no pool near this site, and bikes and kayaks were not offered to us. •We were very surprised to be moored next to a private house boat, who had 2 noisy dogs. Website pictures and description do not reflect this. •Location is also adjacent to RV site, one of the RV trailers would let their dog roam loose around the area. •No toiletries •The boat's front deck has 1 outdoor table and only 2 chairs. Rear deck has no outdoor furniture. •No coffee or filters for the coffee machine- coffee bags supplied. Had to move the coffee machine to reach a plug. Unfortunately I'm not able to upload any photos
