Best for
This resort suits travelers seeking an upscale, activity-rich base for exploring the Upper Keys, particularly divers and snorkelers drawn to nearby John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and Molasses Reef. Couples and families will appreciate the on-site water sports, two pools, spa, and proximity to dolphin encounter attractions like Dolphin Life Key Largo and Island Dolphin Care. Its bayside dining and suite options with kitchens also make it a good fit for longer leisure stays.
Travel tips
The resort is located directly off the Overseas Highway (US 1), just a few hundred meters away, making it a convenient base for driving to attractions throughout the Keys. John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park is about a 6-mile drive, so booking reef tours or snorkeling trips in advance is worthwhile, especially in peak season. Given guest reports of long waits at the on-site restaurant during breakfast, arriving early or planning meals with some flexibility is advisable.
What guests say
Guests frequently praise the resort's location on Florida Bay, along with friendly and attentive staff, with several reviewers specifically naming standout employees for excellent service. The pool and beach areas are generally described as well maintained, though some guests note the Coconut Wing is kept in better condition than the Hammock Wing. Recurring complaints center on dining, including long waits for breakfast, a limited on-site restaurant menu with requests for simpler food options, and confusion over restaurant hours. A smaller number of reviews describe serious issues with front desk service, including room cleanliness concerns, construction noise disrupting a stay, and a poorly handled dispute at checkout.
