"It may look like a misplaced paddleboat from the Mississippi—or a tourist trap—but this floating double-decker eatery serves terrific food, and to a mostly local crowd."
Frommer's
"The setting for this unusual and very laid-back restaurant is a houseboat built around 1960 that floats at permanent anchor from a pier beside Freeport Road."

"Half the fun of eating at The HouseBoat is the location: a floating restaurant that’s permanently moored (and softly rocking) at a pier overlooking the Montego Bay Marine Park."
