We absolutely LOVED our stay at Lime Tee Bay Resort in Layton, Long Key FL! No, it's not an…read more$800/night all-inclusive resort in the keys, but that's why we chose it. However, we were completely blown away by how wonderful it was, with so many great amenities on property and beautiful views. We stayed 4 nights in April. This resort is spread out along two sides of the main highway. We chose a king suite with canal view, instead of the waterfront gulf view. The waterfront rooms looked like they have a great view and very easy access to the pool and dock, but we were delighted with our big deck and access to the additional pool area on the canal side. Our room was so spacious and very clean. We took advantage of the free kayaks, and the beach area was surprisingly fun for snorkeling - we saw so much ocean life! This was our first trip to the Keys, and honestly we were so happy just chilling on the deck and taking in the view and breezes, and visiting the beach, that we could have just stayed at the resort the whole time. Staff is super friendly and helpful. We had the "privacy please" tag on the door for most of our stay as we don't require regular tidying and aren't towel hogs, but the cleaning staff saw us on the deck and still asked if we needed anything. Very nice! Front desk staff were great at explaining all the available amenities and answering any questions. The onsite restaurant Florida Boy was just okay. They do serve breakfast, which is very convenient before heading out for the day. We had a fantastic trip to the keys at Lime Tree Bay and can't wait to book our next trip!

This is a great place to stay on the Keys if you want a real laid back experience. It is quiet and…read morepeaceful, except you do hear all the busy traffic. That can't be helped since it is right off the main road! The hotel has a small beach area and a dock. There are plenty of lounge chairs, tables and even a hammock or two. They provide complimentary access to kayaks and paddle boards. There is a nice swimming pool and pickle ball / tennis courts right across the street. The only restaurant in Layton is part of the resort and the food and drinks are good. And of course, the beautiful FL Keys sunsets are part of the package! We had a two bedroom, two bath unit on the second floor. It had a private stair entrance and a large patio that does have an ocean and pool view. The unit is very roomy, on the outdated side as relates to fixtures and appliances, but the beds are comfortable. There is no dishwasher and only one hair dryer. One bedroom has an en-suite and the other bathroom is next to the kitchen, so a bit of a walk during the middle of the night. But, not a big deal for us. Our request for improvement is that the tile floor was filthy, your feet bottoms were black after walking barefoot. Otherwise, we would stay here again. There was a nice mix of families with young kids to retirees.

The kitchen is plenty spacious with all of the kitchen necessities you will need. There is even a half bathroom near the kitchen and living area. Upstairs has a washer and dryer and even detergent. All of the bathrooms were new, nice and have hair dryers. The beds were comfortable. They provide parking for 2 cars which is nice. It was a short walk from our villa to the pool area. There is a covered section with tables and a cute little pool. Right behind the pool is the dock and a grill area. We will certainly be back!

Our only complaint would be that the ice machine on the property did not function well at all. You could only get a few buckets of ice first thing in the morning or you were out of luck. This was definitely inconvenient when we were trying to get the boat ready for a day of fishing. All in all, I would 100% recommend Little Basin Villas. We would love to visit again!

We recently stayed at Sunset Inn in Islamorada and had a mixed experience. On the positive side,…read morethe room was clean and well-maintained, and the check-in process was very smooth and hassle-free, which we appreciated after a long day of travel. However, we felt that the property is quite highly priced for what it offers. Unfortunately, our comfort was affected by a few issues in the room--the bed made noticeable noise even with slight movement, which made it difficult to get a good night's sleep. Additionally, the air conditioner was quite loud, adding to the disturbance. Overall, while the cleanliness and easy check-in were definite positives, the noise issues and pricing did not quite match our expectations.

Well known and respected member of the community, the Sunset Inn was an interesting stay…read more Easy with check-in, parking was a breeze, and the unit was accessible to physically challenged. The hotel itself was very clean, and the room looked like it was recently remodeled. The bed had a European style bottom on it where I kept hitting my ankle and toes. The mattress was kind of soft, but the pillows were really nice and comfortable. The bathroom looked rather old, and the shower itself didn't have a door on it. So you risk getting water onto the bathroom on the floor when you're just taking a normal shower. I liked the rear room door which led to the pool area. The pool was a saltwater type and very inviting. This was a major plus for this Inn. Get the towels from the front office and pick a nice spot around the pool. This area really was well done Shopping is a breeze with the Publix grocery store just one mile south. Many great choices for restaurants are all within 2 miles. There are no places to cook inside the unit, but there is a microwave outback in case you wanna warm something. A small refrigerator is provided along with a coffee maker and Keurig coffee pods. Try not to book a room facing the street, as it gets rather noisy at night. Also, foot traffic during was rather loud up until midnight. There is a great value in staying here as the price for rooms are very reasonable. I think I paid $136 for the night. The two women at check-in were very polite and attentive to my needs. Questions were answered, I think I would stay here again if I didn't have a room up against the highway. Be sure to inquire first.

The entire property was renovated with high-end materials, furnishings and decor. We got The Beach front cottages next to each others, some good friends of ours traveled with my husband and myself. It was perfect. Very low-key. They recommended Midway café, and oh my gosh, such a great find! Maybe a 3 to five minute walk from the cottages! They also gave us recommendations and I don't remember the name. We walked across the street for dinner the first night the second night we Uber to another place down the road. We'll be back!

Pines and Palms retirement community!…read more We've stayed here for a few years and always had a great experience... last year (2024) we were told that the resort would undergo a renovation and would be featured on HGTV's Restoration Island. We were excited about the new changes and rebooked for 2025. Fast forward to 2025, we arrived and were pleasantly surprised by the new look! the property looks great! Now to the bad.... the pool/bar. The property doesn't have a liquor license. therefore, if you like anything other than beer, you're out of luck. If you do happen to have a preloaded yeti with your favorite mixed drink, watch out! The pool boy will promptly call you out and ask you to stow it. Additionally, at 8pm the pool closes !!!!! No evening dips. I was told that was due to no attendant present. However, the beach is still open and "swim at your own risk" as if that's safer at night.... seems as if the unavailability to charge you $10 for a drink has out weighed your ability to use the pool. Additionally, pines and palms charter is no longer here, I was told the boat was sold, I was given a number to a captain that provides services to the resort, snorkeling/fishing and such. That person doesn't answer... You're better off going elsewhere. In the end, I'm sitting here writing a review while at the resort at 9pm, disappointed. It's a bummer, this place was a hidden gem.

We got the junior suite and the size was more for a solo traveler. We had two large suitcases and…read morewhen both opened, there was no walk space so we were climbing over the bed to get to the bathroom and reach over the small fridge provided. The bathroom had everything needed for a good shower (hot water, shampoo/conditioner, body wash, towels) but the shower was constantly flooding to our ankles so we had to space out our showers to wait for it to fully drain before the next one. The AC kept the room cool but water leaked out occasionally so we turned it off when sleeping which was unfortunate because it got super hot at night in the rooms. The ladies at the front were nice for check in and check out. The best part about staying here though was the little private beach in the back and picturesque scenery. We enjoyed some moments there just before leaving!

Despite this - PERFECT STAY
