The place was clean and cozy. It had everything we needed. Perfect for large family vacations or a small family retreat. Its right next to Publix and Walgreens which was perfect!!
We had an amazing time during our stay at Yatch Haven. The house-boat was more spacious than expected with everything that we needed. They have kayaks and bikes you can grab (first come, first serve) which contributed to a wonderful vacation! We even got to see a manatee! Sombrero Beach is very close which was a plus.
We enjoyed our stay here. It was quiet with exception of early morning rooster calls (not fault of property mgt). We used the pool facility and enjoyed the sun and swim at a clean pool. The staff at Yacht Haven accommodated all of our requests for clean towels during our stay. The AC was quiet and provided cool lodging.
The Aqua-cabins were very clear and comfortable. The idea of staying in a cabin floating in the water was amazing. Only a gentle rocking with fish jumping just off the rear deck. With a Publix just across the street and many restaurants within walking distance made it a very convenient place to stay. We will be going back as soon as we can.

Love this place! Our 2nd stay! Great location, amenities, and best view on back of boat!!
These boathouses were the coolest part of our vacation. They were spotless upon check in and kitchen area had everything you need for your stay.
Having coffee on the back of the house watching the Manatees was an added bonus!
Check in was quick and easy.
The location is perfect! Publix, along with bars, restaurants and other shopping is close by.

Really a fun experience floating on the marina in our private houseboat.
We were pleasantly surprised at how much storage room there was for our stuff, and the kitchen was pretty well stocked for making breakfast or lunch.
Daily visits from manatees and some other sea creatures (small sharks?) were very welcomed.
Location was central to all the various keys and attractions, including a beautiful beach just down the road.

Easy parking, and easy check-in process. Very unique experience staying on a house-boat. Unfortunately did not see any manatees, but great experience otherwise
