Fun location and awesome amenities. The only issue was the bed mattress; it was extremely mushy and not comfortable at all.

Great spot
Great stay on a nice boat. Amazing dock for morning coffee and afternoon drinks with tons of wildlife! Saw lots of manatees and dolphins every day swimming right by the dock. Steady but quiet boat traffic. Pretty decent area for paddle boarding/kayaking. Good restaurant right beside the boat, but still quiet. Not a lot in the immediate area, but short drives to the beaches, shopping and more restaurants.
