Amazing trip

We stayed here after spending 4 nights in Key Largo. The property is an older vacation resort in a great location. We enjoyed hanging outside with a fantastic water view better when the tide is up. The smell of the seagrass at times was a bit harsh, but when you have breezes it's not as bad. The pool is nice and a great place to cool off. We very much enjoyed our 5 night stay here before heading to Key West.

The location on Marathon Key is great. The motel is quiet and on a little stretch of beach and a nice ocean view (although there is no water access). The pool and hot tub were nice additions. However, our room smelled very strongly of mildew, so much that it was a little hard to be in there for long periods of time and sleep comfortably.

Beautiful old school resort!!! The staff was very friendly and welcoming! We chose the onsite restaurant Hideaway Cafe for our 5 year wedding anniversary supper date, and couldn’t have made a better choice! The food was EXCELLENT along with our waiter!! The whole supper staff went above and beyond to make sure our first visit there was memorable, and to top it off they surprised us with delicious fancy dessert at the end! My husband and I loved it here and definitely plan to come back next winter!
