Very Good

Very convenient location for exploring the Florida Keys. The room and grounds were exceptionally clean and private. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly.
We enjoyed this resort because it was quiet! It is right on the ocean so, amazing views. When we were there, there were a lot of mudflats right in front which meant birdwatching was fabulous. The daily breakfasts were top notch!
Room was nice clean and everyone was really friendly breakfast was really good also had a wonderful time

We overall had a nice experience with the staff and the beachfront at this resort however one problem we did run into is there were a lot of tiny bugs in our room that got into our luggage
Staff was great!! The Oceanside room was amazing and very comfortable well put together.
The first room we had was not as great, Room 24, it has no natural light, no couch in the livingroom, no tv in the bedroom and unfortunately we were there on a record cold days, so weren’t really able to be outside and enjoy the property and thus the 4 star.
The back of the property with the ocean was amazing. I was able to fish off the back when the tide was in. The breakfast was delicious and the people working were the nicest people. I’d stay again especially on a budget.

Room was clean and very comfortable. The shower was large and towels were of nice quality and the bath wash was fabulous. Breakfast was good and hot. The pool was warm which was nice because the air was sometimes cool.

Was greeted by Stacie and she was more than helpful. Room was clean,very friendly staff, nice beach area, breakfast was great. Pool was heated and clean loved the hot tub. I would definitely stay here the next time I am down in the keys.
We loved staying here so much, we plan to come back in the future. The ocean was about 50' from our french doors. Extremely quiet beach, much of the time we had it to ourselves. I love to ride my bike every day, the Florida Keys Overseas Heritage Trail bike path is directly across US1 from the resort, so convenient! This will forever be our go-to in The Keys, just perfect for us.
