On a quick visit to Islamorada we stayed at La Jolla Resort. We weren't sure what to expect as a few of our close friends highly recommended this place. But as soon as we arrived, my husband and I felt very welcomed. Our room was a tad small but it served its purpose. Amazing views from the grounds. A couple... More

The location is perfect, does face the bayside. Has great dock area and boat ramp. Extremelly well managed by Ana and Scott, great team. We have been staying here for sooo many years. Consistently good. Very clean, comfortable beds, amenities are good. Three units have front bay view, the others still have a nice look to the grounds which are... More

Stayed here for Easter weekend. The place was full but astonishingly we were not stepping on each other. This is a keys resort, not the ritz, or a grande waileah in Maui. Many of us like it this way. So if you need the ritz you will not wanna come here. If you want superb customer satisfaction and great views... More

My request: Garbage Disposal The wife's: Hairdryer The kids: Heated pool and more hammocks! (They loved them) Besides that, I can't think of anything i would change about this place. My family absolutely fell in love with La Jolla (pronounced "la hoya") the moment we drove through the front drive. What a perfect place to call home. We stayed here... More

We were in the Keys, 4 kids, Spring Break and didn't have a room. All the major ones were full so we were cruising north and looking for Vacancy signs. We came across La Jolla Resort on Islamorada and it had a Vacancy sign. It looks a bit 70's from the road but we couldn't have been more pleasantly surprised.... More

The resort is a very well placed location close to Lorelei Restaurant and the staff were kind enough to lend us bicycles to ride down. The hotel is very old but well maintained and has a classic keys charm. The room was fine and the bed was very comfortable. When we arrived and walked into our room the smell of... More

From the moment we checked-in I knew this hotel was going to be great! The staff was amazing, helpful and accommodating. They could tell us where to eat, what to do, and were very flexible with helping anyone that needed it. Our room was great, lots of storage and the bed was huge and comfortable. The only downside would be... More

In response I would first like to say that this is our first bad review since I have been employed at La Jolla Resort so responding to it is quite difficult and upsetting because during this guest's stay we were not informed of any problems or concerns. If we know of a problem we always take every step possible to... More

This property is small, but cozy and comfortable. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They have kayaks you can use for free, which was a bonus for my travel group. The property is peaceful! I agree with other reviwers, the rooms are not decorated in the typical "tropical" syle. The beds were extremely comfortable. The location in Islamorada is... More

Our room unit N was clean with a great cold mini fridge and our bed was a comfortable memory foam. The water pressure... More

Thank you for the great review. We are pleased that you enjoyed La Jolla Resort. Just wanted to let you know that the problem with the plumbing was due to a clogged pipe which has since been repaired. We hope to see you again soon at La Jolla! Take care. More
