Island Houseboat

Property was old and dingy. We had good communication with the property owners/management until we had a problem. When we arrived to the boathouse around 5:00 pm there was no running water. We called to let the owner/management know and they said there was pipe bust, it was being worked on, and they would call me to let me know when it was fixed. I did NOT receive a phone call, I had to call them back and was told it was fixed. It was not fixed. At this time it was late and we just needed a place to stay. I requested a refund, the owner/manager hung up and was unable to be reached the rest of the night. I then received a text stating they would not issue a refund until their cleaning lady verified the place did not need to be cleaned. Not a single apology about our inconvenience, just making sure they were taken care of. The ONLY positive thing that came out of this was we did receive a refund.

Wonderful and unique house. Great for short term accommodation. Quiet and safe and comfortable .Definitely will book this again

What a great cute stay . We. enjoyed the uniqueness of this place. We shall come back again in summer .

This boathouse was such a unique and cool stay; it was our first time ever vacationing in one. It was within close access to the beach, shops, and restaurants. We especially loved the all around bay views on the top deck. The views are beautiful and peaceful. The inside of the boathouse was homey and comfortable. The only thing I would say is when the toilet is flushed, it does have a bit of a funky smell to it. But other than that, the experience was very enjoyable. The owner was very friendly and helpful whenever I had questions. If a make another Fort Walton trip, I'd definitely stay at this boathouse again :)

What a wonderful stay! Wish could have been longer for us . Definitely will book again. I highly recommend

Love the idea of this floating boat. Everything was so wonderful . Clean and comfortable . Amazing view

The top deck of the boat was GREAT. Inside was terrible. No A/C in the bedroom, no water in the bathroom, no lights in the bathroom, holding tank smell was terrible. Dought it is ever treated. NEVER again. No temp control of shower water. Either scalding hot or cold when the 5 minutes of hot ran out.

Enjoyed the novelty of staying on a houseboat. As stated in other reviews, it isn't new/updated.

Loved the idea of a houseboat. Just a few things needed fixing. Bathroom had no light and apparently needed chemicals in toilet. Smelled bad. No extra toilet tissue. Several lights didn’t work. Had to turn off a/c to use microwave.
