We had a cozy cottage with kitchen facilities done in 50's style. All the cottages were snugged in dense tropical foliage. The orchids in front of the office are spectacular! The garden has been lovingly planned- there's nothing quite like it in the area. There is a wonderful view of Florida Bay from their beach complete with many Ibis birds... More

WOW, I was only looking for a place to sleep and get ready for a meeting the next evening. Since you can't see the place from the road, I had no idea what to expect when I pulled off the road, through the mangroves at their main entrance. This property is absolutely gorgeous and meticulously maintained. The entire property is... More

We stayed in the bungalow. It was clean and comfortable. The Lodge is located along the highway but is situated in a 'jungle' of foliage. The beach area is private with plenty of seating for lounging in the sun. They have recently built a tiki hut to protect you from the sun if you so choose. Also, a nice place... More

We stayed in garden room. Outdoor setting was lovely and tranquil. It reminded us of our recent trip to Costa Rica. The inside of the room was old Florida decor but was clean and comfortable except for the hard mattress and we could have used some more or fuller pillows but the office closes at 6:30 so there was no...

I actually hate to write this, because I'm afraid I'll never be able to get back in once its discovered. This is the classic Keys resort beautifully cared for and well staffed. It's tiny (hence my desire to keep it secret) - beautiful- and relaxing. We sat on the dock every evening with a glass of wine- six nights in... More

We were there for three nights during the fourth week of January 2013, part of a general tour of the Keys. Stayed in bungalow #2, two over from the parking area. Bags of space (bedroom, living room/kitchen, bathroom, screened porch) for just two of us; it was like moving into another house. Noise from the highway – at most places... More

We stayed at one of the garden units for a couple of nights, and it was the size of a small NY city studio without the amenities. The room was just enough to fit a bed with wall-mounted TV, and the microwave and minifridge were tucked in the closet. The room featured large porch doors to the grounds and thick... More

That's right: a small army of tame squirrels come free of charge with the accommodations. You have to buy your own bag of nuts, but its well worth it to wile away a couple hours here and there, mostly there, feeding the little critters by hand. Throw in utter privacy, a secluded and sandy beach, a pier with comfy seating... More

A scant 1 hour and 15 minutes from Miami International and you can be sitting on the dock of the bay on cushy, quite fancy lounge chairs letting the world go by. We loved the kayaking and swimming in the cleared out area next to the dock, as well as watching the sunset, drink in hand. Or Tai Chi in... More
