Loved the resort, we actually arrived a little earlier than the check in time but we were able to enjoy the amenities. Took the bikes for a little ride around, hang out by the pool and grab some nachos at the bar (amazing) definitely will come back on my next visit.

This was a wonderful place to stay in Islamorada! The staff was super helpful and friendly. They allow dogs so we were able to bring our Maltipo. Pool, restaurant, roosters, all were perfect. You also get to go to their other properties which were amazing. Rooms were clean and very comfortable. Location is perfect! We are already planning our next trip.
View from our balcony.
Great place to sit, relax and look out to the gorgeous water.

Pool and beach area were extremely nice. The room was nice and clean, but you can tell it was an older hotel that they are working on remodeling. In some areas you could tell there was some deferred maintenance.

We had a great view of the courtyard and pool. The pool was warm. The bartenders are the best! Everyone there was so nice! Beds and pillows a bit hard. The gym was recently remodeled with new equipment which is a plus. Overall a great resort!
