This hotel is perfectly located for exploring the Keys, with easy access to great activities. The ocean view from our spacious room was stunning, but some cleanliness issues like roaches and mildew were definitely a letdown. While the service was generally good, it lacked attention to details like changing sheets. All in all, it's a mix of beautiful views and some needed improvements.

I had a lovely stay at the resort. The beach is beautiful, and the staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout my visit. The rooms were clean and comfortable but didn't have that luxurious feel I might've expected from a high-end resort. The dining options could use some improvement, especially around breakfast. Overall, it was a great family getaway, particularly for those wanting to explore Key West without the fuss of staying right in the city.

I had a pretty good experience at this resort. The townhome-style rooms were spacious and had everything we needed for a family stay, including full kitchens and laundry. However, the nearby service area was a bit noisy at times, and some areas of the resort seemed like they needed maintenance. Overall, it was a decent value with close access to the beach and pool.

The hotel offered a truly fantastic experience, with a beautiful beachfront location and well-equipped accommodations. I loved the cozy, comfortable rooms that made me feel right at home. The surrounding areas were scenic and well-kept, but the dining options could use some improvement. Overall, it was a great value for the price, but I felt that the Wi-Fi could have been included rather than being an additional cost.

I recently stayed at this hotel and found the location absolutely beautiful and relaxing, perfect for exploring the keys. The rooms were incredibly clean and made for some great pictures, but I felt there could have been more assistance with baggage given the distance from parking. The service was warm and friendly, but some staff seemed a bit disinterested at times. Overall, it's a lovely spot with some room for improvement, particularly in maintenance and room assistance.
