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).

    We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this houseboat! The views were stunning and so peaceful waking up on the water felt like a dream. Everything was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully prepared, making it feel like a true home away from home.We especially loved the serene atmosphere at Seville Marina and the unique experience of staying right on the water. One of the highlights was fishing right off the dock and even catching rainbow trout such a fun and memorable surprise!It was the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. We’re so grateful for the memories made here and would 100% stay again. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful, beautiful getaway!

    Everything was perfect! You won’t find a better place to stay in the downtown area. It’s exceptionally clean, very safe, and everything is better than advertised. There is a well known restaurant adjacent to the marina and the shops and restaurants on Palafox are within walking distance. The Blue Wahoo ballpark is within walking distance, as well. The manager/ hostess JoDee is always available and responsive. There are no issues. There is a great view from the boathouse and shade in the afternoon. It doesn’t get any better than this!

    The unit was very clean and comfortable. It is safe, within walking distance to downtown restaurants and the ballpark, and very private. There is a popular restaurant which is not part of the marina, but right there. The fishing is great right off the front porch! The manager is very accommodating and responsive to any request. This is a very special spot. You won’t regret staying in Doc Holiday.

    This was THE BEST place we have ever stayed, the house was immaculately clean, very well stocked and just so relaxing and welcoming. We will definitely book Dock Holiday again next year for our annual end of summer trip. The view from the front porch is stunning from watching the sunrises, distant thunderstorms and if you're lucky you can catch the dolphins feeding between the marina and the bridge. The fish lights at night were definitely my favorite. So many big fish all around and if you look closely there are so many tiny marine critters hanging all around the pilings and porch, they are fun to watch. The marina is very private, quiet and peaceful and in a great location. I would give this property 100 stars if I could. Check in was a breeze!

    The boathouse is better than advertised. It’s as clean as anything you’ll ever find, within walking distance to downtown and the baseball stadium. There is excellent fishing from the porch. ( sea trout and mullet) It is safe and secure. The hostess is readily available and very responsive and genuinely concerned about your stay. There is a great restaurant next to the marina. I doubt if there is a better rental for the money anywhere. It’s as good as it gets.

    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.

    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.

    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 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.
