This is a private yacht charter. Only your family and friends aboard along with your captains. License To Chill is back in Key Largo! We are now at a private dock behind a home. The yacht is NOT at the listed address. This platform assumes that since a house address can't change niether can a boat! Please ask about current address after booking. Ever wonder what its really like? At anchor, in a quiet cove, perhaps dolphins in the morning. Some say its "living the dream". Come join us and find out for yourself. The yacht DOES NOT STAY TIED TO A DOCK. Each day we go cruising to different anchorages, perhaps some fishing, snorkeling, paddle boarding or playing with the inflatable toys in the bay. No need to worry about sea sickness. All cruising is on the bay side protected by the barrier islands, not on the atlantic ocean. Our home is a 55 foot Californian cockpit motor yacht. Built in 1991 we lovingly maintain her ourselves,(mostly).She has 3 staterooms, 3 heads, a large salon and sundeck. The galley is complete with microwave, convection oven and a full size refrigerator. There is a on board diesel generator and portable back-up, plenty of power to run the air conditioning and all appliances simultaneously. Note: We do not leave the AC running during the day. Our guest are typically enjoying the outdoors and water activities. You arrive at the dock in Key Largo mid afternoon. Not to late cause we are cruising today. We will load you and your luggage on the yacht. There will be a brief orientation of the boat and its systems. When you hear the throaty rumble of the big diesels you'll know its time to cruise. Relaxation should set in while the sun sets on the way to our first anchorage. Depending on the time of year and weather this could include some water activities. Along the way its not unusual to be joined by one or more wild dolphins surfing the big boats bow wave and wake. (12 is the record so far).We'll arrive and anchor just in time to witness a glorious sunset, most times. Boat drinks anyone? Dinner will be prepared and served on board. After that we will alternate dining out at a waterfront restaurant every other night. (guest pay for there meals) A light midday lunch is served each day. There is nothing quite like waking up in a quiet cove aboard a private yacht. We like a morning swim around the boat. There will be fun inflatables tied off the back to relax in. Or you may want to get your tan on. The padded lounge on the bow is perfect for that. After breakfast, we head out to our next destination. That could be to have some fun snorkeling, fishing or paddle boarding. If those things don't interest you then just cruising and enjoying the sights and sounds of the Carribian of America is what we do. Breakfast is always included. With multiple night cruises, we will alternate, first night dinner on board, next night at a waterfront restaurant and so forth. (not included in charter rate)Access to these restaurants are by inflatable tender. You must be physically able to board the tender. Here's a good way to test yourself, can you get on the floor and get up again with minimal assistance? If so you will have no issues, There will be a light lunch each day. BOYB .There will be coolers on board filled with ice but you can bring one if you like. There are no additional fees for anything. Check in time is 3pm. Check out time is 12pm. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Sauna ### Internet - Available in the accommodation: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Full-sized refrigerator/freezer - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Free breakfast available ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Dock ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (limited availability) - Iron/ironing board ### Things to do - Boat - Gym - Kayak - Water sports equipment - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Motor boating nearby - Snorkeling nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 950 square feet ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32800000/32791200/32791186/03c452e7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Fla Keys Luxury Houseboat, Prime Location-Steps to Fun, Food & Water Adventures Tavernier - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 9.8 Exceptional 210 reviews CA $361 CA $626 total includes taxes & fees Dec 14 - Dec 15 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-14&endDate=2025-12-15&selected=32791186&PinnedHotelID=32791186&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![View from property](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/72000000/71650000/71644100/71644026/59e287fb.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Aqua Lodge Houseboat "Captain's Quarters" Tavernier - Pool - Kitchen - Air conditioning - Outdoor space 9.6 Exceptional 13 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-25&endDate=2025-12-26&selected=71644026&PinnedHotelID=71644026&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/72000000/71650000/71643300/71643216/402d81a2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Aqua Lodge Houseboat "The Grey Lady" Tavernier - Pool - Kitchen - Free WiFi - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 22 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-25&endDate=2025-12-26&selected=71643216&PinnedHotelID=71643216&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/61000000/60260000/60255900/60255808/0a409a94.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Boaters Delight Overlooking Marina + Bldg 5 Tavernier - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 9.8 Exceptional 29 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-25&endDate=2025-12-26&selected=60255808&PinnedHotelID=60255808&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![1 bedroom, WiFi, bed sheets](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/72000000/71650000/71646800/71646754/7254a584.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Aqua Lodge Houseboat "Sea Turtle" Tavernier - Pool - Kitchen - Air conditioning - Laundry 9.4 Exceptional 20 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-25&endDate=2025-12-26&selected=71646754&PinnedHotelID=71646754&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Marina](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32660000/32660000/32659992/7ff0f04a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Houseboat offers a rooftop deck for stunning views of the sunrise and sunset.

We took our 2 boys and they had a blast going on tube rides, snorkelling, swimming off the yacht & staring at the stars calling out constellations. They were so knowledgeable about the marine life. We saw multiple dolphins & rainbows. My favorite was showering in the sunshine on the aft deck. The food was amazing as well.

Ken & Monica showed us what Key West is all about. Good food, drinks & music. We watched the Power Boat Races in Key West on the Water. Their yacht was home away from home. Comfortable, clean and the food was outstanding. This seven day voyage started from Islamorada on the inside to Key West and back to Islamorada on the outside to where we started. A GREAT VOYAGE.

From the time we came aboard until the time we pulled back to the dock, it was such a great vibe. The food was amazing, the accommodations comfortable, the tunes were outstanding and Kenny & Monica went above & beyond to make sure that we had a good time. Spotted several dolphin, a sea turtle and even a pink spoonbill, Caught 29 fish (grunts & snapper) and even kept a few. Due to weather we didn’t get to do many water activities. But that didn’t seem to matter … we had the best time. We plan to go back again and even stay longer. Thank you Captains Kenny and Monica. ##### Karen S. K.

Kenny and Monica were AMAZING! From the ease of booking, getting onto the yacht, and starting our dream vacation they went above and beyond to make this trip once in a lifetime. We did snorkeling, fishing, paddleboarding, paddleboard skiing, dining at waterfront restaurants. The sunrise and sunsets were perfect and we were blessed with great weather. We saw 5 sea turtles, 8 shooting stars, and 2 dolphins that played in the water next to the boat. We had fruit trays, boat cakes, and a plethora of delicious meals. Every day and night we went to a different location, fell asleep to the lapping of the waves on the boat lolling us to sleep. Truly an experience you can get no other way!! Book today, you won't regret it! ##### Tammy B. Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heidi K. Mar 7, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Incredible value and customized experience! Captains Kenny and Monica have graciously opened up their home and offered this unique opportunity to participate in their on-board living/cruising lifestyle. We were not originally looking for a boat but the ability to explore the keys while having individualized built-in “excursions”, and most meals, made this vacation so enjoyable, easier to plan, and a great value! Our kids also had a blast and enjoyed some creative surprises from the Captains. These hosts are thoughtful, patient, and truly take pleasure in getting to know their guests. Also, the bay is so calm which made cruising (and sleeping) very comfortable with zero sea sickness. Thanks again to the Captains for helping us create wonderful memories we will have forever! We will def be recommending them to our friends/family and hope to return someday soon! ##### Heidi K. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ian C.

They will personalize the trip to whatever floats your boat - no pun intended. The hospitality was top notch, the food amazing. I am nervous on the water- this trip was for my husband- and our captains exuded competence and knowledge and totally put me at ease. When I was nervous (on the paddleboards) they were kind and patient.The boat is really comfortable. The bed was great, the sitting area magnificent. We went ashore a few times to eat or see a national park and that was really fun. Captain Kenny's description is spot on so read through it to see if this kind of trip is for you. It was super relaxing and fun. Dolphins swam with our boat twice which was magical. Kenny and Monica are the ultimate hosts and have become friends. If you like playing in calm clear water and seeing beautiful sunsets and eating great food this trip is for you! Check out the License to Chill yacht facebook page to see photos of the fun. A wonderful, memorable, joyful trip!! ##### Ian C. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tonja S.

Captain Kenny & Monica were exceptional host on board their beautiful Yacht! From the first hug in the drive way to the last we were treated like family. Monica out did herself with preparing wonderful snacks, to beautiful dinners. We enjoyed each anchor point. They showed us their favorite stops! Ocean View had an awesome steak, and we are from Iowa-We know good steaks. We swam, snorkled with cool fish. Went fishing and hold the current record of 70 fish in 80 min, with 6 different species of fish! What a happy accident, or was it? 😀 We explored mangroves on paddle boards, so beautiful! We enjoyed watching the dolphins play in the boats wake. We even named their new dinghy! Two experienced captain's on a wonderfully maintained vessel-she is gorgeous! But the best part of our trip was hands down getting to know these wonderful people. We cant wait to host you in Iowa soon! ##### Tonja S.

Ken & Capt. Monica were excellent at their jobs, as Hosts and Guides and companions for the 4 day adventure. They taught us to "FARKLE" every night, (it's a great game) Key Largo and Islamorada waters are just great. Our weather was superb; couldn't ask for better. They took us swimming, fishing, snorkeling and Dolphin watching; all of which was a great experience. The meals that were provided were excellent and plentiful both of them are great cooks. Accommodations aboard are adequate clean and bright, but a bit tight; although that's to be expected. We were met at the dock by Ken & Monica and both were extremely friendly and helpful; getting us and our luggage on board. They made us feel as though we knew them for many years. Normally I don't do reviews but in this case I had to tell others about the wonderful experience the 4 of us had on Ken's & Monica's Yacht. Try them, you won't regret it. Happy Cruising Ken & Monica and Best of Luck PS The 4 of us are all in our 70's John & Donna - Carl & Carol ##### Carl B. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurie G. Jul 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Making Memories to Last a Lifetime This is a very unique opportunity that we cannot recommend enough. Captains Kenny and Monica take care of the plan, food and accommodations, you just sit back and relax and enjoy the ride. It was my husband, two kids (14 &18) and me, and we all enjoyed the balance of peace and chill time with activity. You are living aboard Kenny and Monica's 55’ yacht, and experience the upper Florida Keys. We cruised, fished, swam, floated, paddle boarded, tubed and snorkeled. They prepare the most beautiful, tasty and hearty meals and are gracious and welcoming hosts. They personalized our experience and truly made it special. They are safety conscious as well. This is different than a standard charter experience in a couple ways, some ways include... -flexibility on length (they allow for a shorter cruise than most charters) -they spend time with you, you are floating in their home, that being said Kenny and Monica provide a good balance of privacy and companionship. There was plenty of space aboard for all six of us. -you bring your own liquor, was not a problem (and prob saves you money in the end) All in all, I cannot say enough good things if you're looking for a vacation that is different than the norm and if you enjoy, or are curious about, boat life. Kenny and Monica are a lovely couple who are easy to get to know, and really care about their guests' enjoyment and experience aboard License to Chill. ##### Laurie G. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shelley S. Jun 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Super crazy fun, exceeded our expectations I read the glowing reviews before booking our trip. To cut to the chase: the high marks are well-earned. Captain Kenny and Monica craft a brilliantly fun time. My husband, brother and sister-in-law did a two-day cruise and could not stop smiling and grinning. Kenny and Monica made us feel so at home. The meals were perfect; attractively presented and very tasty. The water activities and cruising the coast were massive fun. All of this you will read in other reviews, so I'll state a few cool things that you might not get from the other reviews. 1) First, they really pay attention to what YOU like and adjust accordingly. For example, Monica tweaked the original menu to adapt to some quirks with our Midwestern palates. They could tell we really enjoyed the paddleboarding so they snuck in another excursion the morning we were to depart. And the evenings--oh my. We had background music playing all day. Somehow that morphed into a challenge game of "Name that Tune", then dancing and singing. So, Cap'n Kenny also deserves the title of DJ Kenny. 2) Secondly, there was NO big sargassum seaweed bloom marring our trip. Based on all the scary newspaper stories of its arrival, I was very worried. However, we experienced clear, clean water throughout. All in all, this was a SPECTACULAR trip. I really hope to do it again sometime. ##### Shelley S. Stayed 2 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pamela H., Townsend Feb 26, 2019 #### Best vacation ever. Best hosts ever. Can't wait to go again. We celebrated my 65th and my husband's 70th Birthdays with a couple of our friends aboard License to Chill. What fun! From the moment we stepped aboard, we felt comfortable and attended to in every way possible. Kenny and Monica were such wonderful hosts, making sure our every need was met. The yacht was very roomy, providing adequate space and creature comforts. My favorite spot was on the sun lounge on the front deck. My husband's was on the bridge with Kenney as he expertly guided the yacht from one Anchorage to another. Monica would whip up the best meals with ease, she was amazingly fast in everything she did. If you've ever dreamed of taking a private yacht trip, you should definitely book with Kenny and Monica on the License to Chill. We've traveled to the Caribbean islands and Florida keys before on cruise ships and as fly in tourists. This private charter was by far the most fun we have ever had. We watched dolphins chase the yacht. Had a glass of wine as we watched the sunset. Danced to our favorite tunes under the stars. Frolicked in the crystal clear waters of the keys. Had a fishing tournament with Captain Kenny, and then Monica expertly prepared our catch for dinner. When we boarded, Kenny gave us a business card, told us it was our license to chill, and that he wanted us to laminate it when we get back home so that anytime we felt stressed we could look at it and remember how to chill. We will always remember this trip and the two new friends who made our vacation so memorable. ##### Pamela H.
