Great place to getaway and relax!
This was an absolute dream come true vacation. The owners were incredible and very helpful. We would love to do this again! Actually we didn’t really want to leave. Tony and Ally were not only genuinely kind but also very informative. They made this stay remarkable for us.

Surreal experience
The houseboat offered a unique and tranquil experience, with its charming blend of comfort and waterfront living. The well-designed interiors provided a cozy atmosphere, complemented by stunning views of the surroundings. The serenity of staying on the water made it a memorable getaway.
Hosts - Anthony and his wife are exceptionally welcoming and attentive. Their local recommendations enhanced our stay.

Absolutely amazing
My fiancé and best friend stayed here for an entire week while celebrating a birthday. I could say 101 things about this place and the hospitality that was given while here. They accommodated everything that we needed and we were able to have a great mix of alone time and time and on the town. The experience itself is so worth it. It was relaxing and beautiful. They went out of there way each day to get us to and from the boat and would definitely stay here again. Thank you so much!

Perfect place to relax and regroup
Wild One was the perfect getaway for a couple looking for quiet time to relax from technology and enjoy the ocean and wildlife. We decided to take all that we needed with us for our short getaway so that we didn’t have to leave the boat until our departure; however Tony and Ally make it very easy to get back to land if we chose to do so. They checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed and offered to pick us up if we changed our mind. Checking in and checking out was easy, the paddleboard at the boat was super fun and something we hadn’t tried before. We hope to return again in the future, highly recommend this boat and the great hosts along with it.
