About this property

Floating House ~~ Jupiter, FL

Our 44' Gibson cabin-yacht is docked off the banks of the old Jupiter River, a tropical paradise. (two upstairs landings). 2/2 with three beds. On waterside, queen bed and a full bath (shower). Below deck; second bedroom (2 full beds + its own full bath (shower). Tropical vegetation. No wake zone. Occasional paddleboards and slow-mo small boats. Being here makes the heart brighter and the soul lighter. It's a Zen experience where you'll notice the relaxing results the second you step aboard.

Houseboat with a view
Nice. Loud Friday & Saturday nite with band and music at restaurant next door. Super convenient location. This is a houseboat, with small spaces for 2 toilets, and old school pumps… For father and adult son weekend trip this was fun.

Perfect get away!
Yvonne’s houseboat was well appointed with many convenient features - good shades for privacy and sun control, localized fans for cooling and very comfortable beds and sheets. We loved her kayak and listening to the live music coming from nearby Guanabanas. What you need to understand is this is a boat and has boat plumbing - with all that it entails.

Jupiter house boat
Views great.. very very convenient to walk to restaurants.deli etc. Could be updated ..less clutter..BIG BED AND COMFY....2nd bedroom misleading its a crawl space none of my visitors would stay there. A rather large person would have trouble walking on the narrow side of boat for entry or to go to the LOVELY decks. I had to leave early due to no cems bugs..I was bitten alive..and possible smell on boat..A C and fan works GREAT but boat does get very hot in the afternoon.. needs better direction re: television....It was an experience..like camping on the water...if you don't get bit by bugs easily ..this maybe your place...

About the host

Hosted by Yvonne and Dominic Addairo

Host profile image
Yvonne And Captain Dominic Addario. We have been Jupiter residents for over 20 years. We are authors and locally known as undersea explorers and owners of a 17th Century Shipwreck just off Jupiter inlet. Captain Addario has been a marina owner and knows the boating business to help those who wish to fish, dive, snorkel or pleasure cruise/sail. We both run and maintain commercial property known as Explorers Vacation Club at 'The Jupiter River Inn'.

If you wish to invite more guests than this our cottage can accommodate, you may consider also renting our 2019 RV. It sleeps four+ with one bath and one bedroom and it is next door to the cottage. It is listed on VRBO #1794355 as Waterside Retreat.

Why they chose this property

On the water! Private back deck. Everything is close; churches, restaurants, shopping, entertainment, and the beach. Yet, we live in a tranquil tropical type setting which makes our place unique.

What makes this property unique

Living under a live oak hammock on a scenic river bank creates the prefect relax location of our house boat. It sits far enough away from A1A/Ocean Blvd that it becomes hidden from the outside world. Experience Old Florida as it use to be. A slice of Paradise Found.

TRANSPORTATION: You can fly into two airports. The closest is West Palm Beach PBI, then take a 20 minute uber ride to Sea Chateau. Or fly into Fort Lauderdale for less money, but then you would have to rent a car or take a 60 mile uber ride. Use Zeek's 6 -seater golf-cart taxi if you don't care to walk. He works for tips only ! Bikes for rent on property.
