Luxe Houseboat at Barefoot Landing

Where the Grand Strand Meets the Water. FLOHOM 15 - Palmera

FLOHOM 15 - Palmera is a luxury houseboat docked at Barefoot Marina on the Intracoastal Waterway, the first of its kind in this market and the southernmost property in the FLOHOM fleet.

Designed for up to four guests, Palmera offers a warm coastal-modern interior, a full rooftop deck with fire pit, resort pool access, and a front-row seat to one of the Grand Strand’s most vibrant waterfront destinations.

Step inside to an open, sun-filled living space anchored by a quartz kitchen island with gold pendant lighting and bar seating for four. The king bedroom is calm and considered, dressed in Parachute linens with waterway views out the window.

Upstairs, the rooftop is where the stay lives. Fire pit, dining for eight, deep lounge seating, and sweeping views of the Intracoastal in every direction.

Barefoot Marina Resort, House of Blues, and Alabama Theatre are directly across the water. The Atlantic Ocean is one mile east. The Marina Bar & Grill is steps from the dock. You are in the middle of everything and completely on the water.

This is not a beach rental. It is not a hotel room. It is something else entirely.

Live shows and nightlife nearby: catch a concert and Southern-inspired eats at House of Blues, or a polished variety show at Alabama Theatre, both at Barefoot Marina

EMBRACING THE WATER’S RHYTHM

FLOHOM properties offer a gentle, natural sway in harmony with the water’s movement. Most guests find it adds to the experience. If you are sensitive to motion, we recommend Dramamine or a Relief Band for added comfort. In rare cases of strong wind advisories, we will reach out proactively to ensure your safety and comfort.

The water is the point. Palmera just gives you the best place to be on it. Welcome aboard. We will see you on the Intracoastal.
To ensure a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, and with respect to the love and intentionality we have poured into making FLOHOM 15 - Palmera an extraordinary stay, please take a moment to review and follow our rules.

Quiet Hours
To maintain a peaceful environment for all guests and nearby boaters, quiet hours are enforced from 10 PM to 7 AM. FLOHOM 15 - Palmera is equipped with indoor and outdoor noise monitoring sensors to measure decibel levels, but these are not active listening or recording devices.

Occupancy Limit
The maximum number of overnight guests is four, and the total number of people on board at any one time is limited to ten, as enforced by the marina. Failure to comply with this rule could jeopardize our ability to operate within the marina.

Parties & Events
Parties and events are prohibited. We welcome small gatherings to celebrate special occasions, such as hosting friends or family for dinner, as long as you respect our quiet hours and adhere to the occupancy limit. Please notify us in advance if you plan to host a gathering so we can inform the marina and ensure that our team is aware of any non-overnight guests accessing the private marina.

No Smoking Policy
Smoking (including cigarettes, e-cigarettes, cigars, and marijuana) is strictly prohibited inside the boat, on the front and back decks, and within 20 feet of the entrance. Smoking is permitted only on the rooftop and docks, provided it’s done at least 20 feet from the entrance. Guests must leave no trace of smoking paraphernalia. Violating this policy may result in a cleaning fee of up to $500 to restore the space to a smoke-free condition.

Decorations
Third-party decoration vendors are not permitted. However, we offer curated decoration packages, and our concierge team can work with you to create custom packages based on your needs. This policy ensures our space is well-maintained, the appropriate materials are used, and excessive cleaning is avoided, preventing disruptions to other guests’ reservations. Decoration packages can be reviewed in your personalized guest app after booking.

Children Policy
FLOHOM 15 - Palmera is designed primarily for adults and is not ideal for families with young children. Children 10 years and older are allowed. Our aim is to create a peaceful, relaxing environment that is best enjoyed by adults.

No Pets Allowed
Pets are not allowed.

Water Safety
For safety reasons, jumping, diving, or swimming from FLOHOM 15 - Palmera or the marina piers is strictly prohibited. While the water is tempting, this rule is in place to ensure the safety of all guests and avoid accidents or injuries.

Rooftop Safety
Please refrain from leaning or standing on the rooftop railings. While the rooftop offers stunning views and a relaxing atmosphere, exercising caution is essential to prevent accidents or falls.

Dock Lines
For the safety of FLOHOM 15 - Palmera and its mooring, guests are asked not to adjust the dock lines. Our dedicated concierge team or marina staff are available to assist if needed. Should you notice an issue with the dock lines, please contact us, and we will promptly resolve the situation.

Doors and Windows
Please close all sliding doors and windows when leaving the boat to ensure security and prevent damage from the elements. Additionally, keep screen doors and windows closed while on the FLOHOM to prevent insects from entering.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in following these rules. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
