No bikes. No fridge in room, it was a cooler. Heated pool was nice & hot tub too but closed at sunset. Location great. Ad says meals are free, which indicates included but $30 per day was added to fees to cover, in addition to parking. So add $50 per day, which is fine but disclose it in your ad.

I can imagine this place was a true resort at one time, but resort is really far fetched. It’s more of a motel with some extra amenities. The pool was very nice, hot tub very hot, and there is access to the water out back where you can fish. Breakfast was self serve microwave sandwiches, sometimes cereal and fruit. Went a few days without having the room cleaned to the point we had to call and even walk out dirty towels up to the front. I understand staffing can be an issue in any market. The room was very humid and damp but that might be expected for the area. We did really enjoy the bikes they let tenants use freely. It’s not terrible but far from a resort. Feels silly to pay a resort fee and parking fee when the quality is this low.

They charged for parking onsite $20 a night. Surprise. Promised in room amenities weren’t there everything had to be asked for. Towels. Room cleaned. Water. In room phones don’t work. TV didn’t work. Electrical outlets didn’t all work. Ran out of towels, coffee, creamers, cups in the room. Breakfast was horrible. Available 8 to 10. There 9:10. No food left. Served Jimmy Dean sandwiches, yogurt, cereal. No spoons, no tea, no coffee, no orange juice. Couldn’t find anyone to restock for 15 minutes then took 15 minutes to stock everything up. Rooms were good, not great. Pool was great.

We stayed 1 night. Building had a common hall/entrance. When we walked it the building had a weird odor (musty) smell. The room also has a weird odor, different than the hall but just as bad. It looked like the property was under new management trying to get the whole property looking better. Deferred maintenace on the grounds. We did like the view from the bar area. Although no quests ame to the bar while we were there. We didn't get to enjoy the breakfast. We had to take care of some business during that time unexpectantly. Over all the pool are was nice and the location was central. The room was clean enough, it was just the odors in the building.

Disliked: Amenities
The Wi-Fi was very poor in the room this was reported, but brushed off so we sat in reception to get Wi-Fi, the breakfast was awful and not worth having, and the seating area for breakfast was tatty and insufficient, plus it’s advertised with a sunset bar, but it smelt so bad we couldn’t stay, the bar served beer or soda nothing else and the sun set behind buildings not what you’d expect in the keys. We complained about the awful smell around the bar area ( we thought perhaps boats were off loading their sewage), but the receptionist said it’s just the ocean and nobody else had ever complained.Room clean and adequate.

Disliked: Amenities
I really feel - this resort could be great - but it's not quote hitting the mark right now. Plus, we had a few unexpected charges, which the girls on reception weren't able to really help with - although, once did waive a fee, I think it was still charged to us. The 'resort fee' seemed really for nothing and parking very expensive really. Breakfast was okay, various options - but to my point above of just missing - they provided all sorts of items you needed a spoon to eat, but had no spoons. The bar down by the water could have been lovely, but it didn't open as they had no staff. A movie night could be even nicer there too for e.g. On checkout they couldn't work the printer so i couldn't' see the bill - i am 100% sure I have been over charged but despite trying to contact them via expedia and directly, no -one has had the courtesy to reply. The rooms were good size, comfortable - had fridge, coffee maker. The AC was quite noisy if you need to use that or heating. The taco truck a couple of mins walk away was great. It's just off the highway so easy to find and accessible for the wider keys, and at a good budget option vs other hotels. I just felt they had some nice ideas that weren't quite followed through enough and the billing issues left a bit of a sour taste. But, a budget option that worked for us - it's just a bit of a shame as i think it would be lovely.
