We really enjoyed our stay here. We got the family suite. The double beds were comfortable, but the sofa bed needs a new mattress. Didn’t get much sleep there, but the room was cold enough to sleep comfortably. Everything was clean. Loved how open and welcoming it was. We had a minor issue with our toilet, but staff got it fixed quickly. The area was quiet. We got to enjoy some time out in the lawn chairs. The beach is accessible, but I’m assuming the time for seaweeds is around so we didn’t get to go in the water. It is a little hard to get to restaurants, but we got food delivered to our room. I would recommend staying here for couples, but not with kids.

Beautiful attention to detail at this tiny beach resort. Clean, beautiful beach area with hammock, pool, and parrots! The only lack here is that the only outlet to charge your tech is one plug in the bath.

Sands of Islamorado is a hidden gem. It is a very well maintained piece of Americana. Rooms are updated, spacious and very clean. The pool / lounging area is very well maintained. Got there late and did not meet staff but you can tell they take pride. This was my first time actually stopping in the Keys on the way to Key West and was not let down. Next trip will include several nights at the Sands of Islamorado.

Disliked: Staff & service
I never had any direct interaction with staff, as none of my calls were returned. After some difficulty, I was eventually able to locate the key on my own. I went to sleep feeling uneasy about the parking situation, which was never clarified. Additionally, the bed felt unstable and uncomfortable. Overall, the experience lacked communication and basic comfort, and I would not choose to stay here again.
