We had such a great time at Aqua Lodge. Kitchen was clean and equipped with everything we needed. Some of the tools are brand new. The public beach was a short drive so we went to see sunrise. You can also experience sunset from the dock within the property.

10/10 property and boat was clean. It was perfect for my family with 2 littles.
We really enjoyed our stay. The view from our porch was amazing. Our cabin was clean and looked brand new. The free use of the kayaks was a wonderful perk!

We enjoyed staying here. The first night was windy and we had a LOT of banging during the night. Our second night was much better the wind died down and it was nice during the night.

Our accommodation was clean, well furnished and something just a bit different that we thought we would try. The area was okay, but our boat #1 was a little to close to the neighbours and their barking dog. The office is located across the island and house boats at this end are definitely in a better location. Overall good and glad we gave it a go

We had a wonderful time in our cabin! It was very clean and had everything we needed. This is more of a "simple" stay so don't expect a ton of frills but the ac was cold, the little sitting area by the canal was nice to sit at, and the guest passes to the Cabana Club were so nice to use for a pool and beach day. It is a great cental location as well. The management was so responsive and kind as well. Amazing budget-friendly stay in the heart of the keys!
Great place to stay. Brand new cabin. Still smelled like new inside. So close to the water. They had kayaks to take out. Places to sit around the fire pit. Bench to watch the ocean and see the sunset. Can even snorkel around the rocks on the jetty. We even rented a pontoon boat from the place go out and explore. Nice place.

We needed a place to stay that we could park close to being that we came to dive and had a lot of gear. The closest neighbor greated us upon arrival, the atmosphere was quiet and peaceful. The boat gently rocked you to sleep at night on the comfy beds, couldn't have asked for more honestly and plan to come back.

The boat house was nice, but there is no pool or beach in the property you have to drive about 5 miles you use pool in another location
