Classic old Florida 2-story, outside door motel. Neat, clean, comfortable, well decorated rooms with easy accomodation for extra guests. Nice pool and really nice docks for fishing or lounging. Quiet and peaceful, well away from the busy, expensive hotel strip on main beach. 1/3 cost of beach hotels. Close to downtown and many amenities. Little surprise guest gift bag that... more

Our family stayed at the Boathouse motel during our Spring break trip through the Everglades and Keys. We were very happy with our choice and would recommend the motel to friends and family who share an appreciation for simple pleasures and family adventure. The reviews here on Trip Advisor sealed the selecton for us. We liked the Old Florida atmosphere,... more

We stayed in the Gazebo House (2bed 2bath unit) solely on the basis of Trip Advisor and we were not disappointed. It was a long journey for us from the UK, via Miami, but it was worth it. Parking right outside. The jetty and dock area were fabulous. The pool area was great too and we appreciated the privacy from... more

I will have to agree with the previous comments for June, 2009 up until June 17, which was when Mr. Black and I left. Yep, getting to bring along my lab mix really made for a truly relaxing, wonderful visit. Bringing your stress along with you? You won't be taking it back home after you leave The Boat House Motel.... more

We had the pleasure of spending a couple of days at the Boat House Motel on Marco Island. The room was extremely spacious and very clean. Even with the king and a twin bed there was plenty of room for two large comfort chairs and an ottaman, a dining room table, refrigerator, and microwave. The pool area was peaceful, and... more

Our room was surprisingly spacious, more so than it looked on the website. It had a small fridge and microwave as well. It was very bright and cheerful, and the a/c unit was relatively quiet.. We were within walking distance of a great little place for breakfast, and also several other restaurants and shops. The staff was very friendly and... more

Our family stayed in the Gazebo House and absolutely loved it. The house is built over the water with a private dock completely surrounding it. The pool is right next door to the house making it close and convenient . There is a locking privacy gate that seperates the house from the pool area and the motel roooms which makes... more

We enjoyed our clean, well appointed room and comfortable bed, sipping wine at sunset, watching the kids fish from the docks and walking to dinner. We are accustomed to staying in "known" chain hotels to avoid surprises but on Marco we feel that there is no better place or value than the Boat House. We just loved that "old Florida"... more

This motel is one of the best bargins on Marco Island. The room we stayed in was a tad small for 2 adult fishermen; however, it was the least expensive room with one queen bed and one day bed. The room was clean and quiet with a frig, TV and coffee maker. There is a small swimming pool and a... more

Great service, the room was very comfortable and spacious, what ever you need is in less than 10 min, is located where you could look the sunset and that give us a great moment, we don't get any trouble, so... more
