Fun!

We loved staying on the boat. It was fun watching all the boats going through the canal as we sat on the deck. We will stay again if we’re back to Key Largo. The host and property manager both responded quickly to our questions.

Great Find

We had such a nice time on the boat. It was close to bars and restaurants and just a great location. Being able to use the pool at the hotel was a huge plus. We had very good communication with the owner and his sidekick Melvin. The boat is spacious and nicely laid out. We were all glad we stayed here.

Review of Johnny's houseboat

Excellent vacation spot. Quite relaxing and fun to stay on a houseboat. Johnny was a very good host, responsive to any of our questions. Check in was very easy with plenty to do in Key Largo. We would stay again if we go back to the Keys.

An Unexpected Surprise

It was and unexpected surprise when we arrived at the houseboat(our first ever) all of its 70’.The beds were so comfortable. The bathrooms were both very spacious and clean. It was like being in a condo on the water. The upper deck was very relaxing place to watch the boats. We appreciate the care and personal touch provided.

A few quirks

The boat had a few issues we had to call about when we arrived. The maintenance man came and things were worked out. I have found lately that vacation rentals are not all that together anymore …I gave this one good ratings because the owner was so willing to make it right for us and he even extended us an offer to stay a few extra days for free, We had travel plans but I was really impressed by him and the maintenance men
