Because of the immence pressure at the bottom of the ocean the water is unable to turn to gas so does not actually boil. It remains in a super heated liguid state and quickly rises through the colder water until the water presure is such that the water can expand into gas or cools to the temperature of the water around it.

Water boils at lower temperatures under high pressure, which is the case at the bottom of the ocean where there is a significant amount of pressure exerted by the weight of the water above it. This higher pressure increases the boiling point of water, allowing it to boil even at lower temperatures than at the surface.
