It's a 1960's looking Florida resort. A throwback to happier times, but all the rooms and buildings have just recently been refurbished. New flooring and fixtures and bathrooms, all freshly painted. Sits right on the Gulf, with excellent sunset views. The property also supplies kayaks, paddle boards, fishing rods, safety vests, snorkeling gear, etc. They have a pool onsite along with gas and charcoal grills. Hammocks, lounges are there, too. Easy parking and the staff is wonderful and helpful. They even put out fruit and cookies in the lobby for quick, and free snacks. A very nice touch! I was very pleased and would return the next time we go fishing in Islamorada.

Recommended. Lovely hotel

Little diamond of a resort on Islamorada. We had room T with a bay view, and 'what a view' !! Room was clean and modern and front desk team were very friendly and helpful.
