Me and my friends had a grat time at the place. The stay on the boat was one of the highlights of our visit to Key West. Julie and Mat were great hosts! They made sure that we were comfortable throughout the trip. I am definitely coming back!

The location was perfect. My husband and I enjoyed the peace and quiet and spent both nights sleeping on the deck under the stars.

Due to high winds we were not able to get out on the sailboat but Julie had a solid plan B for us. We had a great time in Key West and would stay with Julie again.

Due to high winds we were unable to stay on the sailboat, but Julie accommodated us with another place to stay before we even arrived in the keys. Very friendly and we got a boat tour in the morning. Would definitely recommend checking this place out!

We was a 3 guys on a yacht it was amazing experience we slept there in the middle of the ocean and the sleeping was amazing really amazing. we wake up in the morning go on the Kayak jump to the ocean drink some beer, and eat breakfast, the feeling was freedom a serious freedom. And he take care of us about everything. Everything we needed he just give us and he was very very nice guy. Just Indescribable experience, We suggest to everyone try it, cause it was incredible and the guy was the most helpful and nicer in the world.

A great experience! The pick-up spot wasn't far from the central streets in Key West and the hosts were flexible with us on the pick-up time for the water taxi. The facilities on the boat were well explained to us and the boat itself was more spatious than it seemed.

First thing's first, staying on a boat is an extremely unique experience, and my wife and I feel extremely lucky to have had that experience thanks to Julie. We highly recommend you try it out for at least a night. That being said, just so people understand, staying on a boat is a lot like camping, that includes some of the negatives associated with it. So if you can't stomach camping, or need luxury in your stay, a small sailboat might not be up your alley. The only hang up my wife and I had was that in the bathroom there were bits of something strange in the sink, and in the kitchen there was an empty bottle of wine. Outside of that, it was still an amazing experience! If you're thinking about doing it, and can live without a few common hotel luxuries, it's well worth a night's stay

I had a wonderful time and amazing experience! Captain Matthew and Julie were very helpfull and curtious! I want to stay again!

Very cool place, secluded in so far as it is a boat in the harbor, but a short skiff ride to the marina. Definitely a unique experience. Best to think of it as 12 or so hours of having your own boat. That being said be prepared for the boat experience, it really is like camping on the water. The owner is extremely nice and easy to contact and communicate with. As long as you understand what boat life is, you'll love it.

A night on a boat in Key West is an unforgettable experience. The bikes provided by Mike were helpful to travel around the island. We enjoyed sleeping with the sound of the ocean and woke up by the sunrise and breeze. Mike was extremely helpful!

First the beachbikes that are at our disposal are cool and very useful to visit Key West. For the boat, read the announcement in full and prepare for a night in rustic conditions a bit like camping. But often a return to the source makes us aware that the essential thing in life is made of simple things !! Happy Holidays!!

If you wanna stay in key west for a night and are looking for something special this is the place to go. Mike was friendly communication was easy and check in and out perfect.

Mikes place was one of a kind! Loved sleeping on the deck under the stars and waking up to the sunrise. We did have one night of rough seas but the boat was definitely sturdy enough and we felt safe. This is much like camping so don't expect luxury. No running water but there is a flushable toilet. Bring snacks/drinks!

If you're cool with camping, staying on this sailboat is a cool experience. The boat is nothing fancy, and could use some TLC, but has the basic necessities. Mike had water, lights, a new power flush toilet, a small camping stove and a 12 volt charger for our phones.

Mike was great. The ride out and back is simple and easy. I'd chill again on this boat. Thanks you guys

Mike was great in helping us with the kids, our stay in Key West was a succes thanks to him and his associates Thx Mike !

We had a great experience on Captain Ron's boat. Great view of the stars and Christmas Tree Island. It was interesting to learn about the history of the boat and its equipment from the captain.

Captain Ron is a very nice host and an experienced guy to live on sea with. His boat is very nice, the space wasn't big but we had pretty good privacy during our stay. Very interesting night.

Great sunset !

Well worth it

Captain Ron was a great host and very helpful when coordinating travel plans. If you do stay a night with him, I highly suggest sleeping on the bean bag couch on the deck, makes for a very good nights sleep.

Place is great. It's an experience like no other. Read the whole note before booking and you will find no surprises. Get your water taxi and parking before sunset so you enjoy the experience better. Love this and thr Captain is great. My girlfriend force me to write that the bathroom is tiny. But I can add that she knew plus it was clean.

Too expensive for what it is! Boat looks nothing like the pictures and has a mildew smell in front sleeping quarters. Toilet area was unbearable to even get close to. Door needed to be keep closed! It's best to wait till last call with Water Taxi's latest pick-up around 10 pm if you do stay. I was ready to get off after the first hour! I had reserved for 2 nights but after being on boat for less than 2 hours, I thought I found Captain Ron and told him, we couldn't handle 2 nights and asked for refund on 2nd night. He agreed on refund but said the boat was clean and didn't smell! Evidently with him living on the boat, he was immune to the smell or didn't want to admit it! I wanted off asap the next morning and he knew it but instead he took the other 3 guest with luggage back to shore at 7:30am and we had to wait till 10:40am to leave. Worst experience ever and on my birthday!!! Planned this for 2 weeks also! I spent most of the next day looking for accommodations for my final night. NEVER AGAIN...

Host is a good man, he is friendly and helpful. Bed is comfortable than we thought and we had a good sleep. Boat is in the middle of the sea. Boat has 3rooms, consist of six single beds. There were another 4 guests with us and we need to share living room and kitchen. So I think it is better for a group people, you can have fun and don't need to worry about bothering others. Anyway it is a different experience and you can try it.

This place is great with all the things you could need to feel at home

Shirley's place was everything she described and more. I could not believe all the items that this unit was stocked with. Short taxi ride to downtown.

Everything perfect. Everything perfect! Shirley is one step forward than others. Congratulations!!

Shirley was very quick with the communication and there was no problem to find either the parking spot or the apartment. It was very clean and a nice balcony to which we really enjoyed :)

All good! The only thing is that it is very close to the airport.. you hear and see the planes. It was OK for us.

All good! Shirley was a lot of help, kept in quick communication with any questions! Quick ride away from duval st!

We stayed as two couples, the condo was perfect for what we needed. Shirley was wonderful and answered our questions right away. If you're looking for a nice, affordable place to stay in Key West, you can't go wrong here.

The place was very clean upon arrival and had everything we could've needed (utinsels, towels, sheets, pillows, etc.). Shirley was very quick and helpful when we had a problem with the door lock. We had a great stay.

Great adventure. If you're on a tight schedule, this is not the place for you. Kayaking in the dark to an unfamiliar boat can be a challenge. If you're up for an adventure however, there's no better place to stay in Key West. Relaxing sunsets, a fun experience, and a nice host. Would stay again.

Great little spot to stay. A lot of fun if you want to try out the boat life (some of the best sleep you can get). Everything was as described and having kayaks to use is a huge bonus. Make sure you bring a waterproof bag to throw your stuff in also it helped out a lot. Zappa's a cool dude had some good convos. Stay here!

10/10 would recommend! It was a wonderfully unique experience that I'll never forget.

It is a sailboat and it does require kayaking to get to it, just be aware. Its away from the city, so good for relaxation. For the price, it was a great place to stay on Key West.

Fun live-aboard experience! Highly recommend for adventurers looking for something new. Lots of wildlife and things to see on the water! Nice helpful hosts too.

My boyfriend and I have traveled around the Caribbean Sea the last 3 months, and the stay at the Mangrove Mango was by far one of the best experiences we have had during those 3 months. The boat is located in a quiet place with mangroves all around. Location is beautiful! It's about 10-15 minutes drive from the touristic center of Key West, and we really appreciated that. The boat is very cozy, and we felt at home from the beginning. We enjoyed 4 days at the Mangrove Mango and we used the kayaks all the time, for trips around the area. We saw pelicans, iguana, sharks and eagle rays during those trips, it was absolutely amazing! Amber and Zappa are great hosts. They welcome you, and give you all kinds of good advices of what to see in Key West. We give all our best recommendations.

This place is great for adventurous travelers on a budget. I would not suggest having three people staying on the boat, but two people can fit comfortably. It is a very scenic area and is great for nature loving people. The waters are calm and safe. Zappa and Amber were very accommodating to our needs and respectful hosts. It is very much like camping on the water and we had a great stay.

Amazing ! You will love staying on this little boat. It's cozy and lovely. Easy to kayak to and from even if it's windy. It's location is perfect if you want to have peace and quiet. Zappa and Amber are great and offer us great advice for the must see's.

This was our first experience with Airbnb and could not have been happier. The place was super clean and very cute. Elli was always super quick to respond with questions we had. Will definitely be back!

The studio apt was perfect; just as pictured. Everything was clean, neat & very private. We couldn't have been more pleased.

Beautiful place to stay and the perfect distance from Key West!!!

We loved our stay, an A+++ for our first AirBnB. Paula was great with the communication, her design and decor is straight off of HGTV! Location is excellent; two miles to DuVal Street. For beach trip, go to Ft Zachary Taylor State Park, the other beaches were disappointing. And finally, be prepared to sleep like a baby, the king bed is so very comfortable!!! Will be back!

Had a great time here! Nice and clean location, which is close to Key West. Very modern apartment!

The place was very clean. All newly renovated. The bathroom sink is a contoured stone that is very shallow.

Great place. Paula made it very easy for us. The place was very clean and modern. Perfect for a weekend.

This is an excellent alternative to a resort/hotel stay. It felt like home away from home instead of a box with four walls and there was plenty of room for my 7 and 10 year old to spread out. Very nice interior!

This was an amazing place. It's located half a block from Duvall street which is where you would want to be if you were not staying here. We enjoyed the grounds so much we stayed on the property our last night. It's like hanging out in your yard if your yard had everything and was in the middle of paradise. Can't wait to go back. Naomi and her staff are amazing.

The Romantic Retreat was very comfortable and the grounds and special touches to the place were charming! It is situated in a convenient location within walking distance to everything, yet quiet and private... a wonderful get-away!

A great place and a wonderful time here. The rooms are tidy and clean,the location is convenient, very close to a vehicles rental place. I may come to Key West again and definitely choose this place again.

This was a blast! A really fun experience. Make sure you bring extra drinking water and some food because you can't just run to the store obviously. Bring a backpack so you can spend all day out and not be taking multiple trips back and forth to the boat. You should definitely spend a day on it though so you get the full experience. Brittney and Rio are really nice and accommodating.

Great and quiet place. Lyndaray and her husband are super friendly and helpful. Had great tips to explore the area.

Had a great time here for our night in Key West. It's an easy 10-15 minute drive to downtown and is well worth it for the price since most places there are super expensive. Lynda was very sweet and accommodating. Will definitely be back!

The hosts were really nice, the room and bathroom were perfectly clean and communication was easy. Bike rental is just a 5 minute walk away and the center of Key West was easy to reach with a 25 min bike ride. Had a great time there!

Neighborhood was very cute, knew it really well because I use to live down there. Very easy to get to and from duval street in key west. Cozy little house for the night. Very friendly her and her husband!

Don't let check privacy deter you, just the way it is.

fan is not working and the bed is not in good condition.

Good

Everything is fine except for the check in..it took me half an hour to find that place..and the host is not there, she point me to her husband, but he sounds kind of rude on the phone. ...Not a great experience for check in..
