Q: What to expect that's different than a hotel?
A: It's a boat, it is a unique FUN experience. There may be noises and smells that you'd expect from a boat. Pumps, motors, ocean water, etc. Every boat is broken the day it hits the water, especially salt water. We take great care of our fleet but we expect guests to tell us if anything isn’t working properly & we will PROMPTLY respond & will try to repair it in a timely manner.

Your comfort is our top priority. 99% of the time the marina is almost totally flat and calm. If there is a tropical storm or hurricane warning issued in our county we offer full credits toward another stay on any of our vessels to accommodate the situation

All boats lock from inside & you can padlock the door when you leave if you wish to lock up your belongings. We’re here daily looking over the fleet.

Q: Handicap accessible?
A: No. You'll need to get on the boat which requires a 1-2' step and there are steps on the boat. The deck stairs are steep and you'll need to be sure footed.

Q: Parking?
A: Yes, you can park your car. Since it’s a small private marina the walk to the parking lot from the boat is only roughly yards away

Q: What if there is a hurricane advisory?
A: If there are hurricane advisories issued in the local area we are happy to move the reservations to a later date or issue a full credit toward another reservation with us. This credit can also be applied to our cruises and is transferable to other vessels.

Other Things to Note:
*** Please note: This is like a camping experience on the water in beautiful Downtown St. Augustine. These boats are here to provide a unique experience getting you close to the historic district and next to the marine life. Please do not mistake this experience with a house. Enjoy the breeze and open the windows during the day. A/C is constantly flowing and is great at night but may not be as strong as central A/C. We have built an entire bathroom facility right next to the dock equipped with great showers and restrooms. Please use them entirely if you are not used to boat smells. Boat bathrooms do not have the same plumbing. We do our absolute best to accommodate all our guests needs with constant communication and we’re here to make sure you enjoy your time in St. Augustine! ***

We are always available to answer any questions or concerns for you, and we do our best to address any individual problems ASAP for you to ensure you have an enjoyable stay!
