About this property

Cozy boat right on "Las Olas" 10 min walk to the beach

This is a Carver 30' x 10’ yacht with a spacious layout, which include a cozy cabin with a full bed that accommodates 2 guests comfortably, a salon with a galley, and dinette that turns into a bed, and also a sofa bed, all climatized with marine-grade ac. in addition, a bathroom with electric toilet and stand up shower. on the other hand, there's an upper deck with a bimini top where guests can appreciate the city skyline and sunsets in the dock and share a drink or a meal. Also, the bow of the boat can be used to take a sunbathe and get tanned. We conveniently provide sun pads and kayaks for guests to enjoy. The boat is going to be stationary at a dock, which is a mile away from the beach to the right, and a mile away from the famous "Las Olas Blvd." to the left. We also provide beach cruising bikes for guests to move around if needed. The area is full of daytime activities, and nightlife to ensure you have a wonderful experience and memories. It is important to notice that this is not a party boat; in fact, this is a quiet neighborhood where loudness is not allowed to respect neighbors from houses and boats around, like you would do in your own residence. This doesn't mean that music is not allowed, actually, the boat is equipped with a stereo that has indoor and outdoor speakers, just be mindful that is not meant for parties.
In addition, the experience is designed for couples, if one more person needs to be added, it can be done, but only at traveler's risk.
Consider this like camping in the water, but with ac, power, hot water, wifi, and tv, among other perks for entertaining, like kayaks, and bikes. It is worth noticing that the dock is located in a prime location, meaning that is at walking distance from famous beach, and blvd. Called "las olas"
Important notice: the cancellation policy is moderate, so refer to rules and policies to get a better understanding of this categorization ( please read that carefully) once in the boat there will be no refund. Feel free to ask any questions and details before booking. We have earned the premiere host badge because we do care about our guests, so be asured that we will go the extra mile to make your stay the best possible.

Perfect spot to relax !

We wanted a place for one night away from the chaos and big hotels. What we found was a perfect gem. It has charm and all the necessities ( even candy and chips!! ) . It has a nice view , pool and kayaks available. Javiar , the host, was so easy to communicate with. He sent pictures to help us and allowed us late checkout. We will be back!! It was an overall wonderful experience!!

A week onboard

It was a good week. Once I got the hang of the nuances of onboard living all was good - quiet and comfortable. Just right for a biz trip.

Fun location to stay.

What a great experience. Owner was friendly and pleasant and kept us informed of everything. Boat was a great place to stay, within 2 miles of the beach and lots of places to eat. People in surrounding boats were friendly. Was nice to park the car and walk or take a lyft to other locations. Towels and extra bedding were available.

An outstanding and unique place to stay in Fort Lauderdale

We stayed for 2 nights before boarding a cruise. Was a great and amazingly different experience. The boat is ideal for smaller parties. Was perfect for my wife and myself. The location is ideal - a 30 min walk to either great restaurants and shopping on Los Olas Boulevard or the beach. Javier, the host. is amazing. He prepared us really well with all info needed before we arrived and responded immediately to any questions we had. The boat ia a little rustic but this made for a unique and very cool experience. Would definitely stay there again

Unique Experience & Wonderful Host

We had a layover in Fort Lauderdale before heading to our final destination so we were looking for a fun & unique experience to maximize our time. The location was perfect walking distance to the main strip for shopping and food. The boat was very clean, comfortable and spacious for two. Host was extremely helpful, quick with communication and went above & beyond to ensure we were happy with our stay. We enjoyed our stay so much, we are interested in planning a trip back to Fort Lauderdale as our main destination.

Glamping on Las Olas

Great host. Made sure we had what we needed to enjoy our stay at Christmas time. Keep in mind, you’re on a 30 foot boat - so this is an adventure. Think of it like a camping trip - in a floating camper. But you’re right in the middle of all the action just off Las Olas.

Great stay

We are locals and I wanted to do something different for my wife’s Birthday. Javier was very accommodating. Any questions I had he was just a text away. He even set up some decorations for her birthday. Restaurants and the beach are all within walking distance. Also, all the people who live on their boats were very friendly. It was a great experience.

Boat adventure

This was the first time my husband and I stayed on a boat. We were looking for a quick getaway from the crazy life we live (and the Boston February cold!) We were very comfortable as we stepped way out of our comfort zone! We had everything we needed. Javier was a great host. Responded very quickly to every request from a couple of land lubbers. So much nicer and more personal than a hotel. It was a fun relaxing adventure!

Hot trip

The boat was nice. Had issue with A/C tripping the breaker. Couldn't be away very long on the chance it would trip and it would get very hot for our dog. The fridge went out the second 2 day, had to buy ice to keep our food from going bad. Pool was nice and the folks around the area are very friendly.

Sweet trip

Javier was really easy to communicate with. He showed us where everything was, including the two kayaks. The place was nice and clean when we arrived. The only thing that was not working was the water heater. We took showers and the water heater kept turning off. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay there!

About the host

Hosted by Javier and Tiba

Host profile image
We own a catering business and a food truck and recently purchased this boat as entertainment for the whole family, but soon realized that we could use it as a vacation rental to offset the cost of having a boat in such a prime spot. We really hope guests like it and support us because we are willing to go the extra mile for them as well.

Why they chose this property

This is a distinctive property that is actually in demand since Covid-19 hit America. As you can imagine, there aren’t so many people who can say they’ve lived on a boat and so choosing this sort of AirBnB is generally a new, exciting experience that feels special and unique. Hello, prime storytelling material for later!

What makes this property unique

We provide a comfortable place to stay quiet and away from the daily life routine, and at the same time close to the action of famous "las Olas Blvd." and the good vibes of the beautiful Fort Lauderdale beach. Close to the airport, Art galleries, restaurants, and bars. we also provide kayaks to ride along the Intracoastal and the houses of the riches, and also, bicycles to move around like locals, and this is just the beginning; we are planning to add more entertainment in the future to make your stay more pleasant.
