I want to first brag on the housekeeping. They were very polite and the rooms were very clean. They tried to help as no one was in the office the whole time we were there. I left a message, at least 3, with the office we would like to kayak one or two days while we were there. They did not return the call. The kayaks were all under a tarp put away. The pool was dirty on the bottom. No one ever cleaned it up. No one ever came to clean up the beach area.

If you are looking for a hotel on the smaller side, this is a winner. The room was nice and very clean. Small pool, some beachy area to sit, bbq’s, and a parrot enclosure that was entertaining. It’s in a good location for Islamorada restaurants. If you’re looking for a large property and pool with lots of amenities, this isn’t for you. If you’re looking for quiet and clean in a good location, I recommend this hotel.

Cute place!

Loved the location of our room-we could easily get coffee and head out to sit and watch the sunrise. Ice machine broken so that was a bummer but the staff was phenomenal especially when allowing us to check in early.
