This is a nice little motel. Typical of the Keys in the 70s or 80s. One room, tile floor, had 2 beds, small round table, full size fridge (which was great to freeze our cooler packs for the next day travel), small stove, sink and a coffee maker and a TV. The bathroom was large with a new walk in shower, vanity was small and the toilet was clean but old. There was a small screened in porch in front that was nice for coffee in the morning. The room was clean but older. That didn't bother us. We only stayed for two nights. They had a pool, but we didn't go up to look at it. The price was reasonable, and that's why we chose Kingsail Resort. I'm not sure I'd call it a resort! But it was very quaint and reminded us of our time in Marathon from years ago. I would recommend this place if you aren't too picky. Like I said, price was a factor in our choice.

Staff was wonderful. But I wonder what it takes to be called a resort. This is a mediocre motel anywhere else. Room is old and while I’m sure it was clean, it did appear to be dirty. The outside areas are nice. Right on airport approach so plan to wake up early with that first plane flying low over head. The roosters were a bit confused with the crowing beginning at three in the morning. Okay stop over on the way to Key West, but I’m sure there might be a bit better choice out there.

We specifically booked this room because it included a kitchen. We wanted to eat in but weren’t able to use it adequately. It started with a snarky sign saying dishes are a curtesy. Really? One of the bowls had a crack, stove was dirty/rusty and felt unsafe to use. NO cooking utensils. Limited cooking pots that looked old and dirty. Newer coffee pot provided but no coffee or filters. But packaged stir stick and napkin was provided???? Only way to get coffee was a long walk to dock area, Very inconvient in morning. Microwave was clean and newer, but ON TOP of the refrigerator. Hard to reach and use. Cleaning supplies were lacking- 1 dish towel but no wash clothes, drying rack or things needed to wash dishes. Bathroom had a fantastic shower area. It also had the only small mirror in facility to use. Hair dryer disconnected and laying under sink. It was dirty and difficult to use. Had a burning smell when using. Only 2 small thin bath towels. THe pool area was beautiful and clean. Great lounge chairs. BUT NO pool towels and we had to go buy some. Outside area, loved seeing the manatees but docks badly in need of repair. Nice tiki huts and table area. Overall, facility felt adequate at best. Is not a place that we would recommend or stay again. VERY disappointed. :(

This place was top notch. Very hospitable when we checked in. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, the coffee in the morning by the water was delicious and peaceful. The resort has kayaks and I was able to take one out in the morning and there were manatees that swam around me. It was beautiful! We had dinner down the street at the island fish company and it was one of the best meals we've ever had. Highly recommend all of it!

The room was large and nicely appointed. The staff was attentive and friendly. But, the “waterfront” description of the property was a stretch. It’s on a small creek that had a lot of smelly seaweed floating at the hotel property. In addition, it is located at the south end of the airport runway, which definitely affected the resort’s tranquility. I would recommend this place, but only for a night.
