Weathered The Storm

The place is not what they said it was. The boats are not clean. No working kitchen or bathroom. In my opinion very sketchy to say the least. Do not book you will be very disappointed.. The local law enforcement is looking to talk to the owner. That is what a local sheriff’s deputy had said to us. What a joke! Don’t do it.

The property advertised the listing as a working sail boat you could stay on. Working meaning power. The amenities listed air conditioning, a bathroom, a kitchenette, etc. With those things, we thought there would be some sort of electricity. The listing also told me to call 48 hours in advance of the arrival date to get check in instructions. I was not able to reach anyone until a few hours before arrival. I was told it was a “primitive” site. However, I was also told that there would be power - an adaptor/battery would be a source of power. I was also told there was a 24 hour taxi service to get us from boat to shower and back being as though the boat itself was surrounded by water. Neither the power nor the taxi service were ever available. When wanting to get to the shore, we had to wait several hours for the host to come get us. We were finally given a dinghy. But the battery to it was taken. The host was hardly ever reachable and we were left in the water stranded for hours. The “bathroom” in the boat was a barely working toilet that begin backing up on the last night. Into our boat. Again, the host was not reachable. I was given a waiver to sign that had already been signed. We were told about several other “check ins” throughout the weekend that never actually arrived. The boat was very dirty. There was no running water or working bathroom as we were told there was. We were left stranded.
