“A family-friendly spot with its own marina, this resort clearly emphasizes recreation. I like that it balances updated rooms with outdoor amenities geared toward enjoying the Florida Keys, but some might find the overall effect more casual than luxurious. It's a solid base for active travelers who want to be on the water.”
