Best Resorts in Islamorada

"We had the most amazing stay at Amara Cay in Islamorada for our honeymoon! From the moment we arrived, everything felt effortless, relaxing, and truly special. The property is absolutely beautiful—clean, modern, and perfectly captures that laid-back luxury island vibe. The rooms were comfortable and well-kept, with stunning views that made it hard to leave. The pool area and private beach were highlights for us—plenty of space to unwind, with crystal-clear water and the most peaceful atmosphere. It never felt overcrowded, which made it even more enjoyable. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive throughout our stay, always going out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. You can tell they genuinely care about the guest experience. The location is also perfect—close to everything in Islamorada while still feeling like a private escape. Whether you're looking for a romantic getaway or just a relaxing trip, this place checks every box. We’ll absolutely be back and couldn’t recommend it more!"

"We loved our stay, the staff was very friendly specially the 2 gentlemen that were in the breakfast. The hotel was very well maintained and peaceful. Our room was excellent the only complain I have is the A/C hitting our bed directly. But other than that I would stay here again."

"Great place but needs new beds to noisy bother neighbor plus definitely needs a blender for making drinks 🍸"

"Let me start by saying that this hotel has a convenient location, the pool will typically be yours during the morning hours and the marina staff and prices are very affordable compared to nearby marinas. It’s overall so cute and could be something really special with some minor updating and increasing staff. Now for things that could improve. Overall the property is dated and needs some updating. Pool towels are so thin and fraying. Additionally they are stocked as they should be. On two occasions I stopped at the office to pick them up and was told to come back in 45 minutes. Chairs at the pool are falling apart. The fabric at the seats is separating from the frame on 80% of the chairs. The pool area isn’t maintained. The same beverage cans sat on the ground during my entire stay. The stairwell in the tower is crumbling and there were huge chunks of concrete in the walking area that was not safe. Our ceiling in our bathroom was leaking which produced this gross brown stuff on the shower floor each day. They advertise having kayaks and paddle boards. There’s 2 kayaks and 1 broken paddle board. There’s no private beach! There’s chairs set up at the jetty’s that you can sit in but can’t access the water that way. The floor in our room was slippery like it had a film on it or possibly dim sunscreen that wasn’t cleaned off. The nightstand had a film of dirt on it that I thankfully was able to clean with the wipes I brought with me. I would not stay here again. "

"Dallas the owner of the site was awesome, he was always available to talk. My wife had her ear drum burst while scuba diving and he was able to give us great information from when he was a pro diver. I planned to rent a boat from his fleet but was unable to due to my wife's issue. That being said they are great looking boats and they are available at a very fair price. When we go back to the keys, we will be staying here again."

"Lush, tropical paradise! Resort was beautiful, room was tropical modern and perfectly clean, bed and pillows were comfortable, food and drinks were great, pools and amenities were wonderful. Highly recommend!!"
