"We had the two bedroom deluxe suite in the Hammock Wing and loved the spaciousness of the living and bedrooms - although the bathroom was tight. The sunset from their beach was beautiful The property was pretty and loved the access to the beach where we spent most of the time. We were pleasantly surprised at the activities available each day. The place really felt like a resort with planned activities, access to a beach with kayaks and paddle boards to use included with the stay, restaurants, and a beautiful property to walk around. During our stay we went to eat at Mrs Mac Restaurant, Pinecrest Bakery, Key Lime Pie Factory, Snook’s Bayside, and Reggie’s Tower of Pizza - so easy to get to multiple places within 10-15 min. Also stopped at Publix close by to get some drinks and snacks for the room since we had a full kitchenette. The room configurations and views were great even though they had chipped paint and could use a bit of updates. Overall we were happy with the stay. The only disappointment we had was not being able to see any manatees on our Eco-tour boat trip but was able to see a dolphin while jet skiing in Islamorada."

"Staff was nice. The rooms are old. Not that clean. They need a coat of new paint too. The bathroom was dirty. The shuttle took 30 min and he didn't show up. "

"This property is very nice the grounds are well maintained, and you can see projects being worked on the further improve the grounds. Being in a protected bay on the Gulf side allow us to take advantage of the free Kayaks and swimming when the ocean side would have been two wavey. All staff members ranging from the people cleaning your room, maintaining the facilities or working the front desk was friendly and helpful. My only suggestion to anyone looking to stay here would be to understand where your room is going to be. This property offers a verity of different experiences depending on what building and room you may get."

"From the moment we checked in with Jessica we knew we’d love Cheeca lodge. Great pools, fishing dock and rooms, along with the friendliest staff "

"Great location and "

"Good location in Islamorada close to attractions and good midpoint for exploring the keys. The property has the old building, motel style by the road and newer buildings and villas a bit more modern. Breakfast gets a bit backed up so go early if you want omelets, pancakes or French toast (the warm options). There are some continental breakfast options as well. Looks like they are trying to make things more upscale but not quite there yet. They could use some hammocks by the beach, the palm trees are begging for it and some ideas to fill the empty space between old and new buildings. Overall good luck experience, but not wow."

"Excellent "

"First off the staff were amazing the woman at the front desk was so helpful and friendly made me feel at home . If you are looking for a great time on the water hit up holf tight charters his boat is conveniently located just steps away from the hotel. The captain is awesome. Rooms were clean and the beds are comfortable "

"They dont strive to serve. Our room had a sliding bathroom door that did not lock or remain closed. It took them 3 days to fix it. The last day, the entire floor smelled fish. They sprayed copious amounts of air freshener but it didnt help. Overall, its a nice place with great views and amenities but it doesnt justify the price tag. I'm sure a few years ago it did, but generally you just get the feeling that no one is trying to deliver a great guest experience."
