About this property

Anchor out!

We have turned abandoned sail boats and made them into vacation rentals! Everyone has a story, let us be apart of yours!
The sailboats are located in Sarasota Bay, parallel to Cortez Village and Anna Maria island. She is mooring out out in the bay! The boat is a similar stay to camping but a little bit better than actually camping!

You will notice dolphins swimming in the bay, manatees around the mangroves, pelicans searching for their next catch of the day, the sound of the waves from the tides going in and out, and don't forget the shooting stars at night!
Let me promise you, your stay will be memorable for years to come. Come enjoy the waterways Florida has to offer!
Rates are PER PERSON. We taxi you to the boat upon request or you can rent one of our kayaks to explore even more of the waterways, or we have a selection of John boats to choose from. (Not included in price). We can provide all the essentials upon request for expl: a generator, solar shower, hotspot, ect. If you would like a list of pricing and other amentities we offer, please ask and i will provide them.

The boat is anchored and not to be attempted to actually set sail. Weather permitting. Refunds will not be granted after being booked unless damages to the boat that is not in our control. The waiting list is not what we had expected so if you decide to cancel, please notify via message or email so we are able to accommodate the next waiting guests.

As a bonus ! We offer boating charters! (Sunset cruises, fishing tours, island hop). Be sure yo ask about our specials and mention "Anchor out!"

If you have any questions prior to booking, please do not hesitate to ask! See ya on the water!

Absolutely disastrous!!!!
This is an absolute NO NO. This is a health risk and this property should be removed from Vrbo and any other site. The host Brittany has a current investigation against her.

Absolutely Not Good! Should be shut down!
I thought it was going to be a halfway decent sail boat with a working ac and electricity, I also thought it was going to be clean but it was very dirty no ac no lights on the inside. The floor and hill is rotting. Nothing works on the inside of the boat, oh and by the way if you wanna use the bathroom you can use the portable toilet that leaks. Be aware if it rains your going to get wet because all the windows leak. Your also going to want to be careful if choose to get the John boat because the battery does like to smoke sometimes and will burn you when the wires disconnect. Absolutely the worst experience. We got scammed. Please feel free to ask me for more information and photos/Video. My guess it will not be around long.
