We've stayed at the Barnacle six times over the years and loved it. It was full of various colors…read moreand interesting knick-knacks that helped create a wonderful "Keys funky" atmosphere. It sits on its own beach and is very quiet and serene. Breakfasts were an "event" with hot egg and meat breakfast dishes, fresh fruit and a variety of breads along with juice and bottomless coffee served in an atrium that was open to the skies and full of rocks and plants. The Barnacle is now under new ownership and the atmosphere has changed dramatically. We recently stayed there for six nights, from a Tuesday to the next Monday. Gone are the varied colors, rocks and plants. The atrium is now roofed over and has all the charm of a high-school cafeteria. The color is primarily beige as is the experience. Breakfast is now serve-yourself cold continental. Saturday and Sunday were "special" because, without any warning, explanation, apology or compensation, there was no breakfast at all. Not a scrap to be found nor anyone from management or staff to provide it. We were left completely alone to our own devices. Good luck. There are some other changes to the Barnacle as well, specifically the posted warnings "This property is under 24-hour surveillance" with cameras to boot. There's even one on the rooftop sundeck which seems not only intrusive but not a little bit creepy as well. All this was ours for the premium price of $450 per night. They get two stars because it was clean, the AC in the room worked and the bed was comfortable. But that's where the "good news" ends. Over the years, we've recommended to many people that they should stay at the Barnacle. Now, and it pains us to say this, we have to recommend you don't.

She makes it so easy to plan our entire trip and gives the best deals too! We never have to stress about any details either. She definitely knows everything to do, eat, and stay at in The Keys. We've had amazing trips every time!

**the owner has called and threatened to sue me for $25,000 for leaving my honest review**…read more We booked this hotel months in advance, and exactly one week before arrival the owner called asking us to change our dates. We couldn't due to flights, work, and pet care already arranged. He then informed us he needed to cancel our final night due to "maintenance," but refused to explain what the maintenance was or consider rescheduling it. They did book us another hotel for the final night, which was nice, but it was about $100 less per night than what we originally paid, the room was much smaller and didn't have any of the amenities we had originally paid for-and we were not refunded the difference. We were required to check out at 11 AM (only extended to 1 PM after I asked twice), even though the new hotel's check-in wasn't until 3 PM. I had to arrange early check-in myself to avoid being stranded in Key West with luggage. We also had to pay for our own transportation and lost a large part of our afternoon packing and relocating. No apology or gesture of goodwill was offered. Further, despite being given a 1pm check out, the owner started calling me at 12:30pm asking if we were out yet, making us feel rushed and adding another layer of unhospitality to our experience. He THEN told me to be sure to leave a tip! Are you kidding? Additionally, the hand soap in the bathroom was watered down, and most concerning, the private pool deck -- one of the main reasons we booked -- was severely caving in and felt unsafe to walk on. I'm attaching photos of that. We were not informed of its condition before we booked. I've since requested a partial refund (50% of the final night) due to the inconvenience and price difference, but the owner has not responded to my emails or text.

Let's talk about parking and having to pay for parking, I get that it's a small area but the unused parking lot in the back should be open to hotel guests.

I was really impressed that the happy hour for guests is not significantly "nerfed" down, with plenty of options available in every category of wine, beer, and mixed drinks so there is sure to be something you'll enjoy that is included. The key lime martini is quite good and you should definitely give it a try!

It was just my husband and I staying here for 2 weeks, and before half of the first week went by we ran out of toilet paper and paper towels. We were treated like we were really imposing on them to request enough for our stay. We also requested the linens be changed and the cottage cleaned after one week which created a complete uproar. Were told we would need to have the "dog" sheets put on the bed if we wanted them changed. These are sheets used by people who rent with dogs. The boat does not have a bimini top as pictured, or a ladder to get in and out. We had to purchase an umbrella and ladder. Kitchen is not even stocked with basics such as wraps and foils etc. First Aid kit is stocked with items that expired in 2005, or earlier.
