Take the stress out of the planning logistics for your next group trip! There is no need to call multiple boat captains, hotels, restaurants, and venues… Don’t fret about handling everything from juggling deposits, & payments, meeting times, where to stay and what to do, etc… We’ve got you and your group covered!  Want to get married overlooking the beautiful Atlantic Ocean, and not worry about weather ruining your special day?  The barn at Bud n’ Mary’s has a one-of-a-kind view and is partially covered, so you won’t have to stress rain or shine!  Check out the video below to get a glimpse of what we can offer.

5 star ratingCaptain Bill Bassett at Bud and Mary’s My husband and I are boat owners and fish out of OCNJ for the past 30+ years. We came to Islamorada to fish a full day back country through the Everglades for a new experience; catch some fish new to us and see some cool wildlife. Friends referred us to Bud and Mary’s and after chatting with us for a bit, Chrissy paired us with Capt Bill Bassett saying that it would be a great fit, and she was right. Capt Bill is a master of his craft, knows where to fish, how to catch and cater to his clients. We caught snook, bonefish, sea trout, a bunch of jacks and saw some crocs 😀. He’s also an entertaining conversationalist, the 8 hour trip passed in a blink. What a fantastic experience, thanks so much Captain Bill and Bud & Mary’s Marina!

5 star ratingBud N Mary's Marina Vacation Booked a stay along with fishing excursion for my birthday. Staff great from pre-planning to actual arrival date. Suggested places to eat and other things to do. Lazy Days restaurant next door, highly recommend for dinner. Do an amazing job on catch and cook, everything is fresh and prepped to order. Also, Saylor Ashton's Sunrise Cafe is conveniently located on the premises, great breakfast and lunches prepared for your day out on the boat. The rooms are clean, and have everything needed for a comfortable stay. Close to multiple dining options, and shopping for all of your needs while visiting Islamorada. Highly recommend, will be visiting again in the future. Very relaxing time spent here.
