Dockside Boat & Bed Long Beach

This was a great and romantic experience.. The owner was super nice and respectful.. Everything was walking distance and the environment was joyful and beautiful.. I would highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in experiencing living in a boat.. its was nice.. i loved it and would definitely do this again..

Beautiful location. Excellent communication and customer service. Very clean. Looking forward to staying here again.

Was looking for a unique lodging experience with my 10 year old son, and this was a winner! Very peaceful and comfortable with a stunning view. Communication with Kent was great. Wished we could have stayed longer.

It was clean, quiet, restful. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, it was exactly what we needed to rest up. The location is perfect and I would stay here again for sure.

We had a wonderful experience staying on a mini yacht. The accommodations were comfortable and much larger than expected. The sunset views were absolutely breath taking. There are numerous restaurants, places to shop, and entertainment choices including the Aquarium within walking distance. We will definitely stay again!

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The area and experience was great. Overall the stay was fantastic.

Spent two nights here while at a conference at the convention center. Super convenient not just to the convention center but to the multiple restaurants nearby. Dock 5 is located just behind Gladstones so if - as I did - there's a hospitality event there it is a 100' walk to bed from the venue. Brilliant! If you are familiar with RV or travel trailers this will be similar, just on the water. Only real difference from a traditional hotel are the toilets and showers which are RV-like but work just fine once you understand their operation. As they describe, self-parking nearby is the way to go. Be sure to pull a self-parking ticket (not valet) which you can pay for at a machine between Outback and Chili's. Several boats here, we were on the one shown on the website which had a queen master with its own bath, another berth forward with a bath, interior seating kitchen and dining areas, and two outdoor decks. Several of the other boats looked even larger.

The host was so personable and explained everything in full detail, made sure we had snacks and fruit, and made our stay very pleasant!

The stay was great & could have been excellent had their not been a big eyesore of ship blocking the Marina which was essentially the entire view. Maybe we should have been notified & comped the parking, a free drink coupon, discount off the next stay… but the mere response of it is what it is was a bit of a turn off. Other than that the boat itself.
