Florida Keys Houseboat - Rooftop Deck, Luxury & Adventure - Walk to Dining & Fun

Baycation | Laid-Back Luxury & Island Adventures in the Florida Keys

Imagine waking from an amazing night’s sleep to the gentle rhythm of the water. Morning sunlight welcomes another beautiful day as you pour your coffee and head up to your private rooftop deck.

Below, the marina is coming to life. Fishing charters are preparing for a day offshore, snorkel boats are getting ready for adventure, and the aroma of freshly brewed Cuban coffee awaits at the nearby café.

There’s no rush here. Just warm tropical breezes, beautiful surroundings, and an entire day of Florida Keys adventures waiting to unfold.

Welcome aboard Baycation, a beautifully renovated, three-level, 44-foot houseboat nestled in a protected marina along Tavernier Creek in the Upper Florida Keys.

Thoughtfully appointed with upscale comforts, inviting outdoor spaces, and the charm of waterfront living, Baycation offers a holiday experience that’s anything but ordinary.

Adventure Right Outside Your Door

One of the best things about Baycation is that the fun begins right at the marina!

Enjoy convenient access to jet ski rentals, kayak rentals, snorkelling excursions, and fishing charter boats. Explore colourful coral reefs, discover the beautiful waterways, or spend the day soaking up the Florida sunshine.

Prefer a slower pace? Relax on the rooftop deck, enjoy complimentary paddleboards, watch boats come and go, or keep an eye out for fascinating marine life around the docks.

As evening arrives, underwater dock lights offer another opportunity to watch the fish swimming below.

Walk to Dining & Island Fun

Leave the car parked and enjoy the convenience of six restaurants within walking distance!

Start your morning at the Latin Cuban Café, open 7:30 AM–3 PM, for breakfast, lunch, and a taste of local flavour.

When evening arrives, stroll to Old Tavernier Restaurant, open 4 PM–10:30 PM, or explore the nearby dining and entertainment.

Fresh seafood, tropical cocktails, casual island atmosphere, and memorable evenings are all part of the experience.

Your Own Floating Retreat

Inside Baycation, relaxed coastal charm meets thoughtful comforts.

Enjoy a wonderfully comfortable queen bed with luxurious bamboo sheets and silk pillowcases, additional sleeper accommodation, a cosy living area, and a full bathroom with a spacious shower.

The fully equipped galley includes everything needed for leisurely breakfasts, home-cooked meals, and waterfront happy hours, including coffee makers, an ice maker, drink cooler, blender, cocktail accessories, and charcuterie essentials.

Outside, the spacious, semi-shaded rooftop deck invites you to enjoy morning coffee, afternoon lounging, and evening cocktails beneath the stars.

Fire up the Weber grill, enjoy outdoor games, or simply unwind surrounded by the sights and sounds of marina life.
