When we checked in we pay extra fee for $108 plus what we already paid for the room. Extremely expensive for their services. The room have a weird smell, the AC unit was not working properly and we were very hot the whole night. Thank God we only stayed one night. The breakfast was nothing but orange juice coffe, small yogurt and a frozen sandwich nothing good to eat. Please don’t waste your money and stay away from this place

Check is was rough, we had to change rooms due to our toilet being broken and it took almost 3 hours to figure it out. The shower just spilled out water, and everything was just constantly damp. The people at the front were accommodating for trh most part. Complimentary breakfast is a joke, microwave sandwiches and some cereal, no fruit or pastries so I’m not sure what the $35 a day resort fee is for and the $20 daily parking is insane! I didn’t understand the tiki bar hours. The bartender was super friendly and fun when it was open! Overall, most likely won’t stay there again.

This is not a resort, but is trying to be. It took us over half an hour to check in because "the new system" wasn't working. Clerk had to go through emails to find reservation because it was not in computer. We had had two rooms reserved for over three weeks, but put us in separate buildings at least 300 yards apart. The room was spacious and the bed was good but floor was not really clean. Shower leaked because of design so water came out onto bathroom floor . Water pressure in sink was poor. Breakfast was abysmal. First day there were no plates--just napkins. Microwave was dirty with melted cheese on it both days. Only highly processed and sealed in plastic products were available, except for some good Chobani yogurt. Bottled juice was ok, but no fresh fruit (in Florida!). Room itself was dark. Staff were friendly but uninformed. Clerk told us about Happy Hour but when we walked to bar, there was no happy hour and not much to choose from. Check-out took at least forty minutes, and we were supposedly refunded one our of four resort fees--have not confirmed that yet. It was not enough. Every other customer we interacted with was unhappy as well. I think the staff means well and the property could, with a lot of work, become a pleasant resort, but now it's a mess. We are currently at a Travelodge for less money but it is far superior.

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.

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.

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.

Groundsmen and cleaning staff were nice and helpful but the staff at the front desk were terrible. The two girls didn't even know what the fees were for upon check-in, and nobody was there upon checkout. The office hours as posted on the front door were 7am to 11pm. At 7:30, no one was there and the doors were locked while I needed to checkout and get a receipt for the charges they couldn't explain to me. Walked around the back of the building and found a staff member with headphones in making coffee. Finally got her attention to help me checkout. Front desk staff is useless and incompetent.
