The space
Before she retired, LYLA belonged to the Fluke Family of Bellevue. Every summer, spanning from 1968 to 2020, LYLA spent endless hours cruising the waters of the Puget Sound and beyond.

The boat has recently been completely restored - here you will find quartz countertops and beautiful woodwork throughout. The interior boasts a beautiful salon and galley with views of the harbor in every direction. The pilothouse, or mid-ship, is outfitted with a wine fridge and cappuccino/espresso machine. In addition to these amenities, enjoy sweeping views of the harbor from above deck, BBQ and lounge on the many exterior decks (season permitting), and spend time kayaking around the harbor in our complementary kayaks.

LYLA sleeps up to five people comfortably:

- The Captain's Room: has one queen size bed and closet

- The Bunk Room: has two extra long twin beds, bunk bed style

- The Pilot House: has one extra long daybed
Guest access
We are available through vrbo for any questions - we live nearby so we can assist anytime!

A great first visit to WA!!!

I got sent up last minute to Gig Harbor for work. Quickly learned there aren’t many hotels around. Wow was that a blessing in disguise. Found this boat and said, “yep, I’m in.” Literally the best work trip I’ve her had. The boat was roomy and comfortable. The harbor is phenomenal and beautiful. All but one afternoon there was a bald eagle flying really close by. Every morning walking out on the stern and smelling the water was awesome. To top it off the shower was hot, the bed was warm, and the fridge was cold!!!!

Love! Love!

Oh my goodness what a beautiful boat! I stayed here for one night with my boys, I wish we had more time. It was so nice and convenient to use the kayaks. The beds were super comfortable. The boat was warm and clean. I was ecstatic to see an espresso maker-I actually have the same one at home! My kids were so excited to have stayed here, definitely one of our most rememberable experiences! I can’t stop telling others about your place.

Great location, beautiful boat

We stayed on the Lyla for 4 fabulous nights. The boat was warm, cozy and nicely furnished. Most everything we wanted to do was in walking distance. We would stay there again in a heartbeat. Hosts were also friendly and helpful. A fun, unique experience was had by all.

Unique Stay in Gig Harbor

We had a wonderful stay on LYLA in Gig Harbor. The boat was just as pictured and comfortable. Great attention to detail on the remodel and has all the amenities one could possibly need staying on a boat. Wonderful location with lots of places in town to walk to. Would stay here again in a heartbeat. Owners are great and responsive.
