Beware!! Worst experience ever!! After responding to the hurricanes that had hit Florida, my crew of traveling emergency responders desperately needed a place to stay. The booking showed to be available and we booked it. A couple hours after the payment went through, about 2 hours before our 18 hour shift was over, the owner contacted us and said it was not available, that they had the boats parked elsewhere but they were willing to tow them into their usual location if we could wait. She told us it would be available around 8 pm. She continued to contact us and push back the time. We were exhausted and needed a place to rest so we agreed. Next, she told us that we would have to take a John Boat from an undisclosed location and pay $25 per person to get to the booking, and $25 per person in the morning to get back to the parking lot. She then told us we should cancel and find another place because it would not be available until late. Everything else was booked within a 50 mile radius, and we had to start the next shift in 5 hours. After that she proceeded to text and ask how much money we make at work, and asked if when we got off work if we could help her clean up her personal property. We decided to attempt to cancel, which was not possible due to Expedia’s 24 hour cancellation policy. We did not go, and put a stop payment on the credit card used to book the listing. Expedia turned around and handed my information to a collection agency for the deposit.

Started with bad communication, hard to find, dirty, cold, no electricity, battery ran out, feces and urine spewing from toilet, no showers, uncomfortable bed, etc…tired to leave on the dinghy left for me and filled with 4” water. Dangerous and unhealthy!!! Wanted to charge me $50 for water taxi???

Excellent. I am in Florida for disaster relief. No other hotels available. The owner made sure I had a place to stay and helped with anything needed. Yes, you are staying on a boat however, they make sure you are able to get to your car at whatever time to make it to work at whatever time day or night with free overnight parking. I was a little skeptical at first with it being off of land and out of the ordinary but they made sure it was accommodating for me. They provided disaster relief free food and water. Electricity usage is ran off of a generator and a battery which is more than the hotel I had to pay double for which had no electricity. There are multiple boats with other guests that are being accommodated with as well. This is really something I suggest people to give it a try. I am booking the next week. After you meet the crew you will understand how working hard people despite of the hurricane put all of their needs second to assist people they haven’t even met yet. Pay it forward people! Keep up the good work sailor park antics! Thank you again
