While we were in Key Largo, we stayed at the @watersidesuitesandmarina for the duration of our stay. Initially when we pulled up, we weren’t impressed. We were anticipating the traditional hotel, which of course is relatively large and somewhat fancy. Pulling into this hotel, left is somewhat lackluster. The hotel “lobby” is essentially just a desk in a room with someone behind it. The pool is pretty small and nothing really special. At the time, there appeared to be an issue with the pool pump, so a garden hose was in the pool in order to keep water circulating. Yes, if you’re wondering, it meant the pool water was actually pretty cold.
However, once we walked inside our hotel room, we fell in love. The hotel rooms are basically private condos. The main bedroom and main bath are upstairs while the living area is downstairs. The rooms were clean and spacious which is important to us since we have all our dive stuff. The bed was amazingly comfortable and the shower was really nice! Having the bedroom on the top floor gives you amazing views all throughout the day. There was also a second bathroom on the bottom floor, next to the kitchen. The kitchen had a stove, fridge, freezer, sink, and essentially anything else you’d possibly need or require. We loved staying there so much, we actually extended our stay by another day.
A large component for us when we travel is hotel price, we refuse to spend $300 dollars a night just for a hotel. That being said, we also aren’t looking to stay in a hotel that has roaches and rats or is in a bad area. We thought that for the price, which was extremely reasonable, this hotel really had everything we could ask.
This little hotel is an absolute gem, hidden in Key Largo. We had a great time, even though we had a minor issue with our room keys. Every day we we were there, for some odd reason our room key would stop working on our room door. We had to go do the lobby daily to get the keys changed. Even though this was a minor inconvenience, the staff was extremely helpful and immediately got us new keys. In any case we think this hotel is⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. We hope that if you’re traveling to Key Largo, you check out this little hotel!
