Was a great stay with a touch of old style Florida. Very clean rooms, quiet grounds, great views from the water side. Plenty of parking available. Close to a bunch of restaurants and bars. This was one of our stops along to way to Key West and it worked out perfectly. Our room number was given to us before arriving so we were able to just walk right in with ease.

Couches need to be replaced. Very old. Need to be updated, especially since the only tv is in that room. The bed was very comfortable . The girl at the front desk was very nice and very helpful. This is our third time going there we would go again. Please update the furniture.😊

We love this beautiful little hotel on the water! The sunsets here are epic! The rooms are clean and comfortable. The staff is friendly and their communication is great! We’ve been here a couple of times. During our most recent visit, the staff was in constant communication before, during, and after our visit to ensure everything was comfortable. We loved our stay and will be back again, and again, and again! Close to attractions and great restaurants! There are even complimentary kayaks on site for guests to use. The true Key Largo experience!
