I didn't like that the rate for the room stated it included all applicable fees and taxes . Then booking.com charged me an additional $29 a night ....aprox $58 more for applicable fees and room tax which I was told were already included in my original rate.

We liked the fact that it was quiet and comfortable. I must say that there’s a ferrol cat by the name of Maverick that I’m sure takes care of the rodents. She is very friendly and loves shrimp!

There was nothing we didn’t like!

We originally rented a 2/2 bungalow and the manager upgraded us to a "Lodge" which we LOVED! It was FABULOUS. We loved the full kitchen, large porch to see the glorious sunsets and the weber grill to cookout on. We took advantage of the FREE Kayaks, Paddle Boards and LOVED snorkeling from the dock. Loved seeing the manetee's everyday too. The staff was so helpful and we enjoyed it being so nice, quiant, and "old school" style place with lots of charater. Hands down we would stay here again!

PROS: very friendly front desk staff. We had flight issues and needed to stay one more night and one woman went out of her way to contact several nearby hotels to see if they had availability. <3 Cool rooms - with couch, kitchenette w/fridge, stove, micro, sink, coffee maker, kitchen utensils, etc. Within walking distance of restaurants/bars which we love! Also, a very friendly kitty on site visited us!

CONS: Pool had too many overgrown trees so it wasn’t sunny enough to lay out and tan, but there’s a gravel “beach” on the property to relax at. The only way to dip in the water to cool off is climbing down a ladder and I didn’t get off the ladder cause there’s weeds and stuff on the bottom.

We absolutely loved the opportunity to visit during a weekday and enjoy the property without many other visitors around. We live in West Palm Beach and loved how easy it was to pop down and stay a night - we already visited twice and will be back :)

I have no complaints - We loved the relaxing location, friendly staff, beautiful rooms, and sweet little property cat. We enjoyed catch and release fishing, paddleboarding, and lounging waterside. The weekend rates are a little high for us being semi-local, but I think they suite the property, and we're happy to come down on Thursdays.

This hidden gem was such a wonderful surprise! So clean, spacious with ample, close, secure parking-it was easy to navigate stresslessly. Ambiance from vegetation provided a beautiful scenery and relative seclusion. The view, private beach, wading/swimming water levels and available recreational supplies made this visit easier & enjoyable. The staff were all so nice, helpful and accommodating. It’s conveniently close to recommended eating & drinking establishments-even walkable. Almost don’t want to share this oasis, but I want to give credit to this awesome, welcoming resort.

Just a caution, some might find the bed a bit firm. Someone really knows how to make up a tight sheet bed.

The location was great and the hotel was very basic but had everything you could wish for!

We were a family of four and our kids (age 9 and 10) slept on a foldout couch that was absolutely terrible in terms of comfort! The mattress’ springs were very noticeable, the kids (even though they are very light) could barely sleep because the mattress didn’t have almost any padding… also, they didn’t leave us pillows for them. Nonetheless, the staff was great and the location was fantastic. I plan on returning but requesting extra padding on the couch and pillows!!

La Jolla is in an excellent location. Islamorada Brewery and Distillery, and a laundromat are directly across the street. Some great restaurants are within walking distance. My room was modern, clean, and quiet. Parking right outside my door.

Unfortunately it was raining during my visit. I was hoping to swim off of their private beach. But their beach is suited for kayaking not swimming. Nice spot with chairs to relax, though.

We love the look and feel of the old Florida buildings that have been kept original on the outside while completely updated inside. In-room coffee with coffee-mate creamer was a nice touch. The beach area is always well kept and free use of kayaks and paddleboards is great. The location is close to everything either on foot or by bike. We've been going for years and it never disappoints. Can't wait to return!

Air freshener scent was a little strong.

The place and the beach in front was amazing. So calm and beautiful place next to the ocean

The first day we booked we were in an amazing room, too big with windows and view of the garden. We liked it a lot so we decided it to come back and stay again. This time we payed more for the room but was a tiny room with 2 small windows without view 😔 This was very disapointing but we still love this hotel and hope to visit it again one day!
