The staff, especially the front desk, were great! We booked an extra night after original booking but there was only availability for a different type of room. The front desk kindly did their best to make the transition smooth to the other room on night two since they were sold out and cold not offer the same type of room. Our first room did not give us a great impression at all (room 122). It desperately needs painted and had paint patches all over the walls. The nightstand looked dirty but needed painted. The bathroom could use a little extra scrubbing on the dirt build up. Our second room made up for it and gave us hope that Kingsail is aware of making improvements. We will return, but will request a room that "feels" cleaner with updated paint and less patchiness. Pool and lagoon were quite enjoyable as well!

Kingsail is the classic economy motel for a Leys trip. We had room 120 which did have some questionable blinds in the room, particularly the one directly next to the door. You could essentially see into the room which was less than ideal. Served its purpose, but that purpose being solely just a place to land our heads during a very difficult trip through the keys (Homestead wildfire) which had nothing to do with the hotel. So fairly, it’s a place to rest your head on the economy scale. Clean rooms.

The desk staff is very friendly. Room very clean. Also very nicely decorated for a simple place. Room was more spacious than expected. Love the outdoor morning coffee service. Yes, there’s coffee in the room as well. Comfortable beds. Pet friendly. I’d definitely stay here again!

This is a motel. Do not believe the “resort” aspect of this place. It’s a motel with a broken dock that’s dangerous along with wood boards giving out under your feet as take stairs up to the pool area. The pool is nice but that’s about it. I booked a suite and the pictures were beautiful. Lies. Save your money. I then booked a night at “El Patio” motel for the next night. It was double the experience for the same money and I would go there instead anytime!

Never again!!

Dirty! needs painting. Mold in AC unit visible. Shower needed to be cleaned. Blinds on the windows were dirty and one blind had a broken slot which we had to cover window with paper for privacy. Shower pressure was next to nothing. I have long hair and would not have been able to get the shampoo rinsed out if I had tried, that's how bad the pressure was. WE WILL NEVER STAY THERE AGAIN!

Great Location

This was our 2nd trip to the Keys and we liked the Marathon location (on the water!). Our room was very spacious except for a very tiny bathroom. Everything was clean and comfortable. Our only "complaint" was roosters crowing throughout the night and waking us up multiple times. Seems the wild chickens are becoming more prevalent here and probably not much to do about it unless you stay in a high rise.
