8/10 Very good

Our accommodation was clean, well furnished and something just a bit different that we thought we would try. The area was okay, but our boat #1 was a little to close to the neighbours and their barking dog. The office is located across the island and house boats at this end are definitely in a better location. Overall good and glad we gave it a go

Great place to stay. A small area but otherwise a nice place. I would suggest a plunger for the

Just ok

Pretty small. Main bed was in need of some help as it was sagging. Not enough towels for the number of the guests listed.

Eric, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a wonderful time in our cabin! It was very clean and had everything we needed. This is more of a "simple" stay so don't expect a ton of frills but the ac was cold, the little sitting area by the canal was nice to sit at, and the guest passes to the Cabana Club were so nice to use for a pool and beach day. It is a great cental location as well. The management was so responsive and kind as well. Amazing budget-friendly stay in the heart of the keys!

Right next to the ocean at boat docking.. can feel the ocean breeze..

We enjoyed staying here. The first night was windy and we had a LOT of banging during the night. Our second night was much better the wind died down and it was nice during the night.
Off the front of the aqua lodge.

We absolutely loved this stay. We were in the golf side and it had amazing views with Iguanas and beautiful sunsets. I would absolutely recommend this as a great little stay.

10/10 Exceptional

We had an amazing experience at the Aqua Lodge! The space was super clean and smelled great as soon as we walked in, it’s clear they take cleanliness and attention to detail seriously. The lodge was fully stocked with everything we needed: kitchen essentials, towels, and even organic products for the shower and sink (which they kindly ask guests to use). Everything was thoughtful and well prepared. Overall, we had such a fun and relaxing stay, we’ll definitely be back!

Like that it eas a houseboat. The only complaint is the house next door were a bit loud.

We absolutely loved the houseboat! The little area by the water for sitting could use a little upgrading but overall it was an awesome stay! Staff- best I’ve dealt with so far.

Location Location Location

We needed a place to stay that we could park close to being that we came to dive and had a lot of gear. The closest neighbor greated us upon arrival, the atmosphere was quiet and peaceful. The boat gently rocked you to sleep at night on the comfy beds, couldn't have asked for more honestly and plan to come back.
Ryan, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had a wonderful time. So much to do in the area. We enjoyed the Cabana Club beach only a short drive away and included in the fee. We were there for the coldest week of the year. The maintenance gentleman, Scott and his assistant were kind enough to bring a hard to find space heater that kept us toasty warm as well a giving spot on recommendations for great places to eat. Some construction in the area but tolerable. Hope to return someday.
Debra, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff was great to work with. Had usage of kayaks, bikes, even a private beach and pool. Great view of the sunset every evening. We had a great view and a 2 bedroom with bathroom, kitchen and front room and deck.

Marathon Disappointment

Aqua Lodge has two locations that were not mentioned in the listing. We were at the 47th Street location and it was poor at best. The boat was fine for two people for a few days. The property is not very well maintained. There’s a 45+ foot yacht permanently moored 10 feet in front of the boat completely blocking any view and there’s dogs and cats roaming the property leaving feces everywhere! The yacht haven location is much better while the 47th Street location is very poor at best!
Jerry, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We absolutely loved our stay here! The boat house was very cute and very clean, not a single issue the entire time. Yes, the boat will rock a bit depending on the weather, but that is to be expected when you’re floating on water. The people in the area were very friendly and the woman who we rented the boat house from was extremely nice and accommodating. She answered any questions that we had and had excellent communication. We would absolutely stay at the aqua lodges again the next time we visit Marathon! 10/10 would recommend to anyone with a small family visiting the area.
Kevin, 4-night trip

6/10 Good

The toilet smelled horrible whenever flushed and then whole boat would smell like septic for hours. I complained and the office manager told me that’s normal because it’s like an RV septic tank. I’ve been in several RVs and they don’t smell… I would not stay again!
Johannah, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The houseboat itself was not too bad. The toilet seats didn't fit the toilet so they kept sliding around and the smell was terrible. Also, outside other people who lived in the area would let their little dogs poop on the patch of grass right in front of us and then the groundskeepers came and shoveled the dog a hint of the water. Also right in front of our faces also, the walls were so thin. I could almost distinguish conversations going on in the next houseboat to the point where it kept me awake late at night
