Perfect getaway

The boat was very nice, it is in a quiet area. We sat out on the deck for happy hour and watch the sun set. Everything was very clean with over the top attention for detail. We will return for sure.

My husband and I have never stayed on a boat before and I can promise you that we will be rebooking with Chris the next time that we are in St Augustine. Chris was the absolute best host that we have ever had with VRBO. He answered our phone calls and text messages pretty quick. The funshine was clean, organized and well stocked with everything that you needed. We really didn’t need to bring anything extra with us. Sitting on the back of the boat while the sun was setting was my favorite. It was so beautiful! The bed and seating area was so comfortable. Probably the best nights sleep in a while. Even though it was pretty windy, you couldn’t feel the rocking of the boat from the inside. We were worried about the location but we were a mile from the main parking garage downtown. So we thought that the location was great! The restaurant next door (hurricane patty’s) was great as well. Yummy food and great service!

Nice overnight trip to st augustine

We had a very relaxing night in the boat. The bed was very comfortable. There was a coffee maker so we had a nice hot cup of coffee to watch the sunrise. It was very cold outside but the heater in the boat kept us very comfortable.

St. Augustine Staycation

Visiting St Augustine and did not want to be driving especially with all the traffic! The Funshine is close enough to downtown to comfortably walk to. So no driving, access to the old city, the fort, etc. The yacht was wonderful to stay in. Excellent accommodations and a great host. Plenty of room. Shower is small but I am comfortably over 6' but and can manage easily. Small item to get used to for great location and accommodation!

My husband and I are looking forward to buying a boat to live on. This stay helped us with knowing what it would feel like living in a marina on a boat. It was research and We loved it, just a cozy stay on the boat is all we needed. It was great!
