About this property

You'll have the entire house boat to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The View! Hidden Gem! Pristine! Quiet Retreat! Charming! Go fish! Dock a boat!

Dock Holiday, the latest addition to our "fleet" of 4. is located on Pensacola Bay in Seville Harbour Marina (facing east). This one-bedroom, one-bathroom floating getaway sleeps 4 people (queen bed + queen sofa sleeper), full bath (shower only), and features a fully equipped kitchen with full-size appliances, the bar/counter and dining table provide plenty of seating. Relax on the front porch and enjoy your morning coffee, a view of the bay, or a glass of wine at the end of your day.

You are a short walk away from Bartram Park and Seville Square, which hosts many local festivals and events in the heart of the historic district. Take in many great restaurants, local bars, art galleries, museums, Blue Wahoo's baseball, Ice Flyer hockey, shopping, Veteran's Memorial Park and Palafox Street, which was named one of America’s greatest streets. The sugar white sands of Pensacola Beach and Perdido Key are just a short drive away, as is the National Naval Aviation Museum (home of the world-famous Blue Angels).

Bring your watercraft (boat, jet ski, kayak, etc.)!! Launch at a nearby ramp and dock near your Houseboat. Trailer parking is also available. Make sure to mention what you will be bringing (type, size, water/power needs, etc.) when booking.

Additional marina amenities include the "BathMat" (laundry area and restrooms) and "The Grill Deck" (a common cook-out/gathering area) and a fish cleaning station.

Of the four, Dock Holiday has the best view of the bay from the marina and with that comes the most exposure to some swaying with an east wind. For some, it will gently rock you to sleep and for others, plan accordingly.

Please note that this Houseboat is located on the water in a marina, and you will be walking on docks that may include uneven footing. There are no railings on the front or back decks or along the docks. May not be suitable for young children, people with stability issues, or accessibility issues (i.e. wheelchair - standard door widths throughout).

Check out Baydream (#1832982), Decked Out (#2511119) and Seaclusion (#2814013), also!
During your stay at this houseboat, you're just a quick walk from Destination Archaeology Resource Center. Laundry facilities are available.
  • Free WiFi
  • Amenities include laundry facilities and a water dispenser
  • Steps from Destination Archaeology Resource Center and 6 minutes by foot from Julee Cottage

Relaxing get-away.

I wanted to stay somewhere different and this was it. We stayed busy so we didn’t spend too much time here. If I could do it differently, I would have made time to fish. Perfect for watching the sunrise while drinking coffee. The house was perfectly decorated and clean. Glad we stayed here.

THE BEST SPOT

Likely there are not enough characters for me to fully explain how wonderful our stay at the marina was. We fished in the morning, we fished in the afternoon, we fished in the evening. We caught more fish in our five day stay then we have probably this entire year. We got to see dolphins and catch MANY different types of fish. We met with other fishermen that showed us their catches. I really never wanted to leave. The house was perfect…clean, all amenities, Publix 6 minutes away, convenient to beach and restaurants. The Fish House was DELICIOUS.We came for a baseball tournament and wanted to be close enough to the beach but also give the boys something fun to do outside of sand. Ms JoDee and her staff were incredibly accommodating and responsive to any questions. She even visited us while we fished and got to see the action!I give this place a 10/10 and can’t wait to go back. The walk? What walk! Worth it.

Wonderful view and space to enjoy

This houseboat is perfect. We loved sitting on the porch looking out over the bay. My son fished off the porch and loved it! Our favorite stay with VRBO. Very comfortable, perfect for 2 or a small family.

Our stay was wonderful. We could not have asked for anything better. The unit was everything per the description. It was the best VRBO experience we’ve ever had. Clean! Well equipped! Close to everything! (We attended the Wahoo games and walked to and from) safe! Wonderful!

Fun Staycation

Only problem was tv. No local or National news. Interested in renting again in November during Art Festival. Not sure of dates yet, but would like to look at a couple of 2bedrooms before booking.

Houseboat with a view

This is the best houseboat of the four that are in this marina. It’s a walk but once you’re settled it’s worth it. Thank you Ms Jo Dee for the little gifts. It made my day.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

I can’t believe we found this place at the last minute but I’m so glad we did. It’s the furthest walk in the marina but a gorgeous walk indeed and worth it for the final view you get from the front porch. The place is immaculately clean and has SO much space. Way more amenities than a typical rental- toiletries, games, smart TVs, cleaning supplies, etc. we can’t wait to come back with the boat.

We always seek out houseboats when traveling to Florida and this location was one of the best. Very nice accomodations in a peacful, immaculate marina with wonderful views. Just a short walk to old town Pensacola and a short drive to Pensacola Beach. Definately 5 stars!

Truly a Gem

We were lucky enough to book this property for my son and my husband for a guys weekend in honor of Veterans Day. And it did not disappoint. The house is SO cool- complete with its own dock and a true house boat atmosphere. You don’t get any close to waterfront than this. The guys enjoyed walking out the front door and fishing right there. Everything was well stocked and clean, with so much within an easy walking distance- restaurants shops and more. We will definetly be booking again our next time in the area. Hosts were very accommodating and provided all useful information needed.
