"Great hotel with beautiful, modern vibes! Everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The ocean was absolutely amazing—crystal-clear water with fish swimming all around made the experience unforgettable. I also loved that they provided purified drinking water throughout the property, including in the rooms. Such a thoughtful touch! Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend it."

"The resort has great potential. If you want a quiet place to get away it's perfect. It's very safe. Bring your own toiletries. The staff are so nice. The activities team are really fun, they try to keep everyone engaged. They dance and have karaoke. They jumped in the pool to play volleyball with my husband then other people joined in. It was great. The food can definitely use an upgrade. They made it up to us on Friday and Saturday. The menu was great. They need to have things like that everyday. They made a special dinner for us and it was fantastic. Everyone was really really nice. Very respectful."

Anthony's Key Resort

8/10 Good
"We very much enjoyed our stay at Anthony's Key with just a couple of exceptions. We chose this location for its beautiful cabins right on the water and safety. And this place really checks the boxes on beauty, cleanliness, and helpful staff. However food options are very limited to their single breakfast, lunch, and dinner location, or the bar restaurant with limited times. Other food options require transportation as the roads are to crazy to navigate on our own. Now I understand this part is on me for choosing the location and not the resorts fault. However, keep in mind what you are looking for when booking. We did not scuba dive but this is the perfect place for a diver."
