Sewage stench
The stench from sewage near our “premiere king” room is nauseating. Engineering “cannot find anything wrong”. Housekeeping staff do not speak or understand english so it was frustrating when they were knocking on our door at 8:30am as if we were supposed to check out on day 1. Resort is very pretty and has nice amenities but if we have to smell sewage for the entire week I would think they would do something about it instead of an apology blaming it on the tide and saying hopefully it will dissipate. Going back to Cheeca Lodge in the future and advise not staying near the oasis adults only pool here if you decide to book a room. I am pretty sure this is an ongoing issue and that is the real reason they cannot fix it.

Looks great but accommodation standard is variable.
This is a beautiful looking resort. A lovely pool area and great sport facilities. Only downside for me was the town houses ( self catering houses) are all actually privately owned. This means the standard is variable. Unfortunately on arrival our private pool was filthy dirty, we only had 1 broken sun lounger for 4 guests, kitchen cupboards didn't fit properly and had only basic kitchen kit. The furniture was quite tatty. Only the lounge tv worked, none of the bedroom ones. We even had an exposed electrical socket by the main bed. I went immediately to discuss these issues with the reception to be told they couldn't do anything out it because they didn't own it! My son spent hours cleaning the pool so we could use it. By midweek after much nagging the hotel finally lent us 2 sun loungers. i was very disappointed by their response to my complaints. I felt as I booked with them they should be sorting out the issues and getting on top of the owner to sort the house out for future guests. The resort could also do with a small grocery store. For self catering it was nearly 10 miles to a large supermarket. A small grocery store would have been extremely helpful.

Beautiful, clean, friendly staff!
Absolutely beautiful location and pool! Stayed for a charter with Captain Dylan Bryan on the B n’ M out of Islamorada (I’d highly recommend btw, look him up on Google/Instagram). Pros: The staff were all super friendly and helpful! The rooms were clean and very spacious! Cleaned and restocked daily. Nice balcony, and views were beautiful even out of a standard room. Golf cart transport for getting around the property. Small water play area with water slides for the littles was a big hit! Mini golf, volleyball, and kids activity center was a nice bonus. All the food we had on property was excellent and a great variety of options! If you’re looking for a real resort feel this is your place! Cons: Pool closes at sunset. The Tiki Grill and Pilar Bar stop serving food at 5. This leaves the Angler and Ale or Salt & Ash your only option for dinner without going to Marathon or Islamorada. Both of which require reservations or you’re going to end up with an hour + wait if even possible. Must plan ahead for dinners. No fishing allowed, and we were not allowed to launch our personal paddle board from site, but there’s plenty of places you can close by. Also, you trade out some of the authentic keys feel for the resort vibes.

Sad what has happened to this resort
I have been coming to this resort for decades but sadly this will be my last trip. The resort is in beautiful surroundings but it just simply isn’t maintained. There is no doubt a major sewer problem that has yet to be repaired and has been an issue the have been “working on” for years. The scent is overpowering. Can’t miss it. When asked about it - the girl at the front desk said she would send housekeeping to spray air freshener. The air freshener they are using is so strong I can taste it. The staff has some amazing people that try so hard but some that are just clueless and overall they are understaffed. Room service was not an option this morning and all ordering services that are advertised through their site with the menus around the property say it is unavailable at this time. For the prices they charge- you expect more. It is just sad what has happened here.

Nice outdoor property but service needs attention
There are lots of nice amenities for kids , pools lagoon etc . Service however sadly lacking . Not sure where the breakdown occurs . I called three times for additional towels due to family group of 10. Finally went and got them myself at front desk . Everyone who answered phone or I met at desk very pleasant but no action . Also requested first night someone to come and vacuum as floor was gritty in bare feet . Requested three times as well / no one came . The villa we were in - the Sanctuary was advertised as 4 bedroom . Was really a 3.5 as one bedroom was a connector room with no closet . Furnishings are in sad need of replacement as almost threadbare on chairs and sofa . Lastly electronic key system always breaking down. I had to get the bracelets re keyed several times . This is a lovely property but needs t be updated and service needs to be attended to . There was one great employee at the bar named Jason who was very kind and helpful . Others at the bar not so much . We won’t return sadly until upgrades occur and service improves .
