    Nice little place. Peaceful and so quiet. Neighbors are friendly. Water is beautiful. Just a stones throw from the open ocean.

    Just completed the sale of my Condo in Islamorada and it could not get any better then this. I know…read morethe agent, Rhonda Simonds-Brewer who I believe to be the most well connected broker in the Keys thru her network of agents and Friends. Me and my wife decided to see what the market was like and asked Rhonda to work up a portfolio and price out the property. In a day I received a complete overview of the local market along with some of own personal suggestions. After agreeing to go ahead with the sale I called Rhonda and told her that I would be leaving the following morning at 10:00AM sharp and please see what she could do. The next morning she called me and said that she had three perspective buyers and she would be in touch. At about 1:00PM we get a call as we are driving back up to our home that she has just sold the condo at full listing price as I almost drive off the road. Folks, it just doesn't get any better then that. Her insight and diverse network, make her the only broker to use in the Keys.

    We worked with Walter Ceballos to sell our home in Marathon. We interviewed four different…read morecompanies. All of them except Walter gave us "off the top of their heads" value assessments and very vague comments about what's selling in the area. Walter requested a day to pull together some information and then came back with comps from our neighborhood (not very useful since the values on our street range from multi-million to under a million) and listings of homes in the area similar to ours. He helped us set a realistic price and made some suggestions on staging the home for photographs. The photos were amazing. And the house sold in less than a week. His thoroughness and professionalism throughout the entire process from listing, to showing to negotiating made a great impression on us. We'd highly recommend him.

    This was our second year staying at the Amara Cay, and what an enjoyable experience both times. We…read morewere allowed early check in which is such a nice amenity. Check in was quick, and very friendly with recommendations. Our room was on the second floor again, this time an ocean front and wow - it's worth it. We had the courtyard view last time and it's also a very pretty view - you can't lose. The pool area and bar is so wonderful - very scenic, and the service at the bar is great. They have a great menu for lunch options that they bring out to you. The room was very clean, modern, and spacious. You can request a microwave if you need too! There are bikes, paddle boards, and kayaks for rental for free. Lots of things going on in between the three resorts - we wish we'd had a chance to try the yoga! We will be back for years to come.

    I have been staying at Amara Cay for more than a decade, going back to when it was still a Hampton…read moreInn, and it has always been one of my favorite places in the Florida Keys. Unfortunately, this experience was extremely disappointing. The day before my trip, I came down with a cold and decided not to travel. At the same time, I accidentally dropped my phone in the pool and could not make calls. I immediately used my tablet to email both Booking.com and Amara Cay to cancel my reservation. Despite my efforts, the cancellation was not properly handled. When I finally got a replacement phone and called 24 hours later, I was passed back and forth between Amara Cay and Booking.com with no resolution. I was ultimately charged for both nights as a "no-show." Even more frustrating, according to the stated policy, a no-show should result in a charge for one night, not two. Amara Cay later emailed me twice saying they would look into the matter, but no one ever followed up. After more than ten years of being a loyal guest, I am very disappointed. Unfortunately, this experience has caused me to cross Amara Cay off my list. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend this hotel to others.

    We had a wonderful experience at Sea Bird Marina! A special thank you to Lynn and the entire staff…read morefor all their help along the way. Everyone was friendly, considerate, and incredibly helpful. We especially appreciated how much they care about protecting the environment. They took the time to assist us with launching and retrieving our boat in a way that helped prevent any unnecessary impact or damage to the surrounding environment. We highly recommend Sea Bird Marina and truly appreciate the care and service we received!

    Go here if you enjoy high prices and rude owners…read more We rented with them in Oct 2023. We rented a 23' Ft Key West (largest they had- only one engine). It was in rough shape. Despite being fellow Floridians, they treated us like pirates. Due to the poor condition, we were nervous to take it too far. We returned the boat free of damages, and they refused to give us our deposit back. *Be warned if the boat breaks down (even due to their negligence) it's YOUR cost. We're headed back to the Keys this month. Since we believe in supporting local, we wanted to give them another shot. Note, that the lousy first experience wasn't enough for a review. My husband spoke to the owner direct and explained we were staying this time in Marathon. The owner argued we couldn't keep a rental boat in Marathon, despite pointing out their black and white content on their website (see image). Again, they were rude and their prices are outrageous. Congrats, now you have an honest review exposing your incompetence and corruption. Thanks for your lack of manners. We were able to rent a higher quality, newer, two-engine, larger boat for cheaper elsewhere.

    This realty company is not ethical. They misrepresented a vacation rental to us. It was a dump…read more Following is my review of 106 Bayview to TripAdvisor: "This place is a dump and the web site was a complete misrepresentation of this rental. We were embarrassed that we had invited relatives to go on this vacation with us. The house stunk. It looked as if there had been an attempt at renovation but someone gave up. Outside, there were construction debris and a trash container with a hideous odor (which had obviously been sitting for some time beside the street). There were mold and holes in the walls both upstairs and downstairs. Some lightning fixtures were installed too near the ceilings and the paint was burning off. We were afraid to leave the lights on for too long a time. One load of clothes in the washer and dryer took a very, very long time to cycle. The linens were threadbare and the mattresses uncomfortable. We were seriously overcharged for this rental and will never return to Islamorada."

    I have used Freewheeler Vacations and recommended Freewheeler Vacations off and on for many years…read moreand have found them to be very accommodating. It seems to me that if someone has used a service successfully for 20 years and a problem arose that couldn't be rectified, that seemed to be fault of the client, is a pretty good track record. Sherry G and Courtney N and their 4 other guest should have gone to enjoy Miami or Fort Lauderdale. If given lemons, make lemonaid.
