We stayed at this hotel for 1 night on the way back to Miami from Key West - and from the moment we saw the beach & pool area we were over the moon with our choice of stay. We had booked an Ocean View room - and were extremely glad we had - the beach is truly gorgeous, with... More

We aim to please! Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us and with your fellow travelers. The ocean is a mighty draw and I don't think anyone tires of it; so relaxing, yet invigorating! We'll see you on the flip side! More

I wrote a review of this place when we discovered it in March 2009. We loved it back then, but love it even more now. The view and location, as before, are absolutely perfect. The grounds are still immaculate and very well maintained. It is located off the beaten path, in a relatively residential area which makes it quieter and... More

I stayed here after the rooms had been completely rehabbed. My room openned to the ocean and many nights I slept with the window open and AC off. The pool and beach were fun to use. Guests can use the Bar B Q on the side of the building. the lobby has pieces of fresh fruit in a bowl.

We stayed at this hotel for 2 nights in April and it was a great choice for us. The hotel is undergoing extensive renovations from top to bottom. Our room was small with 2 queen beds but overlooked the ocean and the pool. It was very clean and new from bed linens to fixtures. No morning breakfast but we had... More

We are very glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. Our location and ambience are truly beyond compare; close to everywhere but no mass of people to deal with and all the comforts of home and then some! Thank you for mentioning the need for additional towel hooks; we listen to our guests and will be providing them soon.... More

We go the the keys on a regular basis as we live in Ft.Lauderdale and are always looking for a nice hotel. Like to try out different ones but we will definitely return to this one. The service we have received was beyond expectations and the rooms are just phenomenal. They re-opened a few weeks ago and therefore everything has... More

Been coming to the Keys for over 30 years and staying everywhere. We wanted to stay at Hawks Cay but couldn't get a room. Initially we were disappointed but upon checking in were very pleased. No restaurant here but one right next door and many others very nearby. Renovations are spectacular, attention paid to every last detail. Our room has... More

This property was just gutted and renovated and only opened the week before we arrived. There were still a few units on ground floor under renovations but we were on 3rd floor so any noise they were making didn't bother us except there was quite a bit of drywall dust around our unit and the floors hadn't been washed since...

We so appreciate that you came and stayed while we were still working out a few "kinks"! I especially appreciated your suggestion of a hand towel ring by the sink. That makes sense and we plan to implement it. You'll be very happy to know that our WiFi works perfectly now! (after getting a whole new system!) It is great... More

Lovely newly renovated rooms. Still tweeking things, but don't go during season cause it gets quite pricey for just a "motel" room. We travel for business and chose the wrong week to head to the Keys and couldn't find a place to stay till someone suggested we try the Glunz Ocean Beach Hotel & Resort.

Been there many times we love the place but just looked at the prices after the renovations have been completed they have more than doubled and out of our range. Will miss ocean beach our favourite place in the keys we will rent a duplex which will be so much cheaper and hold more of our family in one accomadation
