Houseboat Rentals in Miami

Houseboats in this market mostly look like luxury yachts tied to a slip. Book My Boat lines up overnight stays on yachts and a small number of true houseboats. Most options include the cabin, the kitchen, and a private slip with parking. Stays run 1 night or longer. Captained day cruises can be added to most bookings.

About

What Counts as a Houseboat

True houseboats are flat-bottom vessels built for living, not high-speed cruising. Inventory in this market is thin. Most overnight options are full-size yachts that stay docked overnight at Miami Beach Marina, Sea Isle, or Dinner Key.

You get the cabins, the galley, and the private deck. The marina handles power, water, and parking.

What Our Guests Are Saying

Real reviews from guests who booked overnight stays through Book My Boat.

Staying overnight on the yacht was incredible. Woke up to the sunrise over Biscayne Bay. The marina was quiet and safe.

Rachel M.
Couples Getaway

We did the day cruise + overnight. Best decision. Explored the bay, then came back to a private dinner on deck.

David L.
Family Trip

Rented the mega yacht for a group of 14. Crew was amazing, cabins were luxurious, and the rooftop deck was perfect for stargazing.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Few true houseboats exist here. Most overnight bookings are luxury yachts tied to a slip. The yacht layout still gives you cabins, a galley, and a deck. The marina provides power, water, and parking.

Small overnight yachts start at $300 per night. Mid-size yachts run $400 to $700 per night. Larger 70 to 80 foot yachts run $1,000 to $1,500 per night. Day cruises add on at a separate hourly rate.

On the boat. Each overnight comes with linens, towels, A/C, and a stocked galley. You can cook on board or order in. The marina has restrooms and showers as a backup.

Yes, but it requires a captain. Dock stays do not need a captain. Adding a 4 or 8 hour cruise during your stay activates the captain rate plus fuel.

Some yachts allow small dogs with a cleaning fee. Cats are case by case. Service animals are always welcome. The listing notes the pet policy clearly.

Yes. Every marina slip includes one parking spot. Some marinas allow up to two cars at the slip. Extra cars use the marina visitor lot at a daily rate.

Yes. Most overnight yachts allow 4 to 8 guests for dinner. Larger gatherings need approval from the marina. Catering can drop off at the dock.

Different, not safer or less safe. Marinas have 24/7 dock security and gated access. The boat itself locks like any home. Treat valuables the same way you would in a rental property.
