Top Dolphin Research Center Hotel Reviews

Hawks Cay Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great place for vacations"

Grassy Flats Resort & Beach Club

10/10 Excellent

"When we arrived we were greeted by Mia. Such a nice young lady and very helpful! We had dinner at The Rhum House and the food and service was fantastic! Our room was very clean and spacious. We were disappointed by the beach but came to find out that is common in the Keys. Also liked how the resort was centrally located."

Rainbow Bend Resort

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful older hotel which has been updated. Rooms were large, clean and tastefully furnished. The staff were friendly and very accommodating. The free breakfast was provided by the restaurant (Hideaway Cafe) on site. I had delicious lemon ricotta pancakes with a side of sausage for breakfast. We enjoyed dinner there as well. The owner, Chef Freida made it a point to come to our table and introduce g herself to us. Dinner was excellent. Thoroughly enjoyed the entire stay. I would definitely stay at Rainbow Bend again."

MILLION DOLLAR VIEW very private 4 bedroom resort with pool, pier, kayaks, spa

10/10 Excellent

"Such a beautiful home! Our family enjoyed snorkeling, fishing, relaxing, swimming and all the things this home has to offer! So much wildlife under the dock and beautiful sunsets! The owner was great with communication throughout the entire process! Highly recommend!"

Fully furnished studio, 50 yards from ocean, shared pool, fishing-jetty

10/10 Excellent

"Room was exactly as advertised. Very clean and perfect location for me. Close to Marathon but not in the middle of everything so it was quite, but still very convenient. Hans was great to work with and easy to reach. I'll be back!!"
