This place is super ghetto, I can only conclude that the positive reviews are all bogus. It is old, run down, dirty, noisy, and smells bad. The mattress was blown out and ancient, I just hope that we didn't get bedbugs but I would not be surprised. There were insects in the room, hair in the sheets, and the bathroom smelled of mold and mildew. There are chickens roaming the property, so be prepared for an early wakeup - assuming that you slept at all with the constant road noise through the paper-thin walls. The wifi doesn't work and cell reception is bad, so forget about distracting yourself with internet. If you like a third world vibe maybe this place will appeal to you, otherwise spare yourself. Just yuk!

Better than expected.

I had read some negative reviews and several good ones, so I wasnt sure about this place. However, it was better than I expected. The bed was very comfortable. The shower was nice. You can tell the age of the resort around the baseboards that needed cleaned and a good paint job. Honestly though, I would stay here again. It was right off the highway in a good location. The pool looked clean and the sitting area on the water was very nice. And yes, there are roosters roaming! We loved them! Not too expensive for the Keys, especially the end of March and first week of April!

Very convenient & charming place to stay, I appreciated the helpful staff, the guest laundry, and the pool. Be advised there are a lot of chickens around the hotel that might be annoying to the light-sleepers in your party. (This may be a common problem in the Keys.)

Kayaks you can take out, manatees on the dock, friendly staff, clean sheets ... The rooms themselves weren't a five-star resort but for the price we couldn't beat it. We had those stupid wild chickens outside of our room at 6:00 a.m. which was annoying but they're also protected so you can't do anything about that 😂

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!
