On our recent trip to Islamorada, we stopped in for breakfast at the Green Turtle Inn. We had…read moreactually ordered delivery from here earlier in the trip, so we already knew the breakfast was going to be good. I ordered The Turtle Breakfast with eggs over easy, added an extra egg, sausage, and bacon, and swapped the toast for a side of biscuits and gravy. Everything was cooked perfectly. The bacon was thick-cut, salty goodness, the sausage was packed with flavor, and the biscuits were light and fluffy. The sausage gravy was some of the best I've had, rich, hearty, and loaded with flavorful sausage. Whether you're staying in Islamorada or just passing through, I highly recommend stopping by Green Turtle Inn for breakfast. It's a great way to start the day in the Keys.

The atmosphere at Green Turtle Inn is by far the best part. I ordered the Turtle Breakfast, which…read morewas fine, but the service ruined our visit. This was our third time giving this restaurant a chance, and unfortunately, nothing has changed. We were seated, received our coffee right away, and then no one checked on us for about 25 minutes, even though the restaurant wasn't busy. What made the experience even more disappointing was watching every other table receive attentive service, water, and condiments without asking. We were the only Hispanic guests, and the difference in treatment was hard to ignore. Whether intentional or not, it left us feeling unwelcome. From the hostess to the servers, the staff was rude and unwelcoming. There are much better restaurants in the area where guests are treated with respect. We won't be recommending Green Turtle Inn or returning.

Almost felt like you took a step back in time. We did have to wait a few hours to check in. A little disappointed as our room was ready (they had our phone #, but we never got a phone call). Almost felt like they do that so you sit at the bar and spend $$. At least that was the story that was going around the bar as everyone else had gone through the same thing. Bartenders were super nice and attentive. Your bill includes the gratuity, which we had to remember a few times. Really cool private pier that you can walk out on. The rooms were the perfect size. Tons of outdoor space. We could see the ocean from our back door, which was an added bonus. Really enjoyed our stay!

The entire team was welcoming, professional, patient, and truly cared about my success and safety. From the very first day, I felt like I was part of the family. A very special thank you to Michaela. She went above and beyond in every possible way. She helped me find a hotel, recommended great restaurants, gave me directions, answered all of my questions, and even helped me find childcare so I could focus on my training. She also personally helped care for my child during part of my three-day course, which meant the world to me. As a parent, that kind of kindness and support is something I'll never forget. Her generosity, compassion, and genuine heart made this experience so much easier and more enjoyable. My instructor, Tarek Salem, was exceptional. He is patient, calm, knowledgeable, and an excellent teacher. He explained every skill thoroughly, made sure I understood everything before each dive, and gave me the confidence I needed to succeed. I always felt safe and well taken care of. I also want to thank Elara Moultrie. She was friendly, patient, encouraging, and always focused on everyone's safety. Her positive attitude made every dive fun and helped create such a welcoming environment. This wasn't just a place to earn certifications--it was a place where people truly care about their students. I left with my Advanced Open Water and Nitrox certifications, wonderful memories, and friends I'll never forget. If you're looking for a dive center with outstanding instructors and people who genuinely care about you both in and out of the water, I highly recommend this team. I'll definitely be back for more training and more dives. Thank you all for making this an unforgettable experience!

This was the second time I did one of River of Grass Adventure's boat tours. Both times, my guides…read more/ boat Captains were great. They are passionate about the Everglades, preserving it, and really love what they're doing. For about hour, we zipped and stopped around the park, through channels in between the high saw grass, over grassy flats, and within a few canals dredged many years ago. The fresh air felt great and I think maybe my blood pressure eased for a few moments. We saw wildlife, including a peregrine falcon, other birds and of course, many alligators, either resting on the grass or swimming off to do whatever it is they do. The guides I think know pretty much where to find the alligators, some of which have names. River of Grass is one of the first swamp tours west of Miami off of highway 41 past the casino. The boats take you pretty far into the Everglades where you don't see or hear any civilization, only the quiet rustle of the grass, i.e. when the engines are not powering the boat thru the glades (why can't they make a quieter engine?). The pictures I took really don't do it justice.

Bonus--the bus had great AC, which we were very thankful for! When you arrive at the park, there are clean bathrooms, areas to walk around, and even a little general store for snacks, drinks, and souvenirs. Since the day was overcast with a light drizzle, we lucked out--apparently when it's too sunny, the gators dive underwater to cool off. This weather was perfect to see them out and about. Before boarding, they snap a professional photo that you can purchase later, then it's time to hop on the airboat. Our guide was a vibrant, knowledgeable young lady who clearly loved the Everglades. She knew her birds, plants, and most importantly--where to find the gators! At one point, we were surrounded by five gators swimming around us. We even spotted a vulture feeding on a deceased gator on shore--it felt like being in a National Geographic special. After the boat, the gator show begins. It's a slower pace but fascinating. The "Gator Boyz" are humane gator trappers who rescue and house these animals. Watching their interaction with the gators was both educational and thrilling. Huge respect for the work they do. The experience continues with a mini zoo featuring turtles, crocs, snakes, and monkeys. I couldn't resist snapping a photo holding a baby gator and even an albino snake! Keep in mind, the staff makes their living through tips and photo sales, so plan to tip your airboat captain, the gator show crew, and your driver. For the value of spending four hours exploring one of Florida's greatest natural wonders, it's more than reasonable. We had an unforgettable day surrounded by wildlife and the natural beauty of the Everglades. Highly recommend this tour if you want a true Florida adventure!!
