This was our second time coming to The Boat House, we love it here!!! Simple and comfortable, no hussle, bussle, just easy going. If you fish you'll love it here, we don't, however enjoy watching everyone fish off the dock. Our favorite is every morning, make a cup of coffee, head down to the deck, sit and enjoy the boats...

A bunch of my fishing buddies and I stayed there for a few days in May 2013 and had a great stay. Quaint little place, a bit old, but clean and well kept. We really enjoyed our stay. I will stay there again. Walking distance to a great seafood place and bar. The manager/owner is very friendly and accomodating.

You can walk to a few good restaurants and the Everglades are just a short drive. I personally had a blast fishing from their dock. Got some live shrimp down... More

We have been to Marco many times in the past but this was the first time that we stayed at the Boathouse. Management was very friendly and attentive. The room was very nice and was everything we needed it to be. We stayed 2 nights, then our 3rd night in Florida was at Rodeway Inn and Suites in Ft. Lauderdale... More

We did not want to leave! The staff was warm and friendly. This was our first time at the Boat House Motel. We are frequent travelers to Marco Island and we definitely be staying at the Boat House again. The property is tucked away and private right on tbe water... yet walking distance to great places to eat and entertainment.... More

We arrived on Marco Island whilst driving around Florida and went on a search for a place to stay for the night - we weren't keen on a big resort type hotel and came across the Boat House in Old Marco - absolutely perfect! The owner Desree was so welcoming and gave us lots of handy tips on places to... More
