Everything was great until your cleaning staff decided to use a leaf blower at such an early time of the morning, as we were the only guest on the property and were trying to enjoy mimosas and breakfast snacks sitting outside. They had not one care of it being right in our face and around us. That right there turned it all sour Really?

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.

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.

I liked the place — it was very clean, and the pool was nice. There’s no area for kids, though. The king bed upstairs with a water view was perfect. Unfortunately, the sofa bed smelled strongly of marijuana, so we all had to sleep in one bed and barely got any rest. The smell and the pillow were disgusting. We also left a cooler behind, called the hotel, and were told they’d call us back — but no one ever did. Overall, I don’t think I’d return. It’s just too expensive for what they offer.
