Floating In Paradise On The Azul Project

About this space
Float with Us To Save the Water & Save the World! The Azul Project concept was created in 2010 by James Douglas as an effort to bring awareness to the importance of Conserving Water! In 2018, we thought how else could you get closer to the concept of water's significance then by floating on it, near Atlantic Ocean Beaches, & calling it your home away from home! Float with us while remaining plugged into your own personal WiFi!
The space
The Azul Project, a 2004 44' Gibson Houseboat!
Soak up the sunshine or stay tucked inside cuddled up with your favorite book and enjoy the North Carolina fresh salty air!
The Aft Master Stateroom has a Vanity, Dresser Storage, adjoining bath with electric head (toilet) and sink! (NOTE: Shower onboard is not for use. Just steps away from boat are two showers located in Marina building next to laundry room. There are also several other showers with regular indoor plumbing located in the Clubhouse that you have access to during your stay. These spaces are maintained by the Marina and not your host.)
Also, on board is a well equipped kitchen with refrigerator and freezer (bring your own ice), microwave, pantry, double sink, 3-burner range & dining area! You will notice oven in picture but it is NOT an offered amenity.
Located in the Salon is a sofa with Roku Smart TV, DVD player with several DVDs and AM/FM radio! Note - cable/satellite not provided.

Carpet on stairs and LVT flooring throughout the rest of the boat!
Lots of outdoor decking! NOTE - No outdoor shade coverage due to high winds that can creep up on us in the OBX and could cause a safety issue.
Guest access
Full access of the boat and all its noted amenities with the exception of the ability to drive boat! Able to park car for free in parking lot...just steps away from boat!

OPTIONAL - Stand up paddle boards rental for your use at your own risk - paddles and life vests provided! Location is close by in Nags Head. Ask your host to arrange for this extra amenity during your stay!

Discounts to local businesses included with your reservation!
Other things to note
The houseboat is floating at a slip where tide fluctuates - therefore you may have to step down or up to enter the boat.
Please remember this is a boat and therefore water pressure is different then what you may be used to with the indoor plumbing in your home! As mentioned earlier you have access to several full bathrooms with private showers with hot water. Hot water does not flow on the boat sinks!
Split type ductless system provides Heat & AC on boat.
Please ask your host if pool is open during your stay, if the pool is important to you, as it is maintained by the Marina and not your host.
Please bring your own beach/recreational towels.
One bath towel and wash cloth provided per person.

Houseboat Vacationing
I very much enjoyed this unique experience of houseboat living. I knew I would enjoy the marina life and being on the water sounded wonderful. However, it really is not really dependent on the tides as to how your are able to board the boat. You WILL have at least 3 feet to step/jump over to get on the boats deck. As a single person, I found this not to work very well. My suitcase and groceries were difficult at times to bring onboard by myself. With that being said, the last day there, one of the bags I was bringing with me ended up at the bottom of the sound with my Jeep Fob in it. Make sure you keep your keys on a floatable keyring. Not just this case, but I feel these sites do a horrible job with check-in directions in general. Terrible. I had no idea where the boat was and I was coming in late at night. Gia, as host, was great. Quick responses and very helpful. If you are not aware of septic systems that cannot accept anything but waste, no paper, no nothing...that takes a little getting used too. Overall, it was a nice time....My only real issue with how to get on and off the boat easily, L- Wallace

Christmas night getaway
My sweetie and I got a chance to run away on Christmas Day and so I decided to surprise him with a night on the ocean in a boat,,, the furthest thing from our mountain farm. It was perfect!!! Roomy and tons of windows, the waves rocked us to sleep and the sunrise woke us up. I can’t wait to book again for a longer stay in the summer when I can use all the decks to take naps. Thanks for your speedy response to my questions! Love love love it❤️
