The Boat House was a lovely old family owned motel. Property is clean & fresh. Room was freshly painted & updated. Beds very comfortable. Walkable to a few restaurants with good fun & food. Check out Snooks & The Boardroom & Smith’s Restaurant. Loved Marco Island. We would definitely stay at The Boat House again.

I can’t say enough good things about this place. It has so many amenities that chain hotels neglect to include- real coffee mugs, a comfy seating area, fridge and freezer, space to eat, multiple pillow types, ample closet space, reliable internet…plus there is a charming outdoor mall with cute shops just steps away. We can’t wait to stay here again. Staff was very friendly too!
