This place is a hidden gem in the Keys!! It was clean, well furnished, the staff was pleasant and they had great amenities! Saw several families playing pickleball, we enjoyed the pool and the chairs by the dock. Bathrooms were clean and well stocked, rooms were spacious. The beds in our room were a little tall, but some of the best hotel beds we’ve ever slept on! Wonderful stay, we will definitely be back!

The Bonefish Motel and RV park exceeded my expectations. My wife and I stayed in the motel, but there are also mobile cabins on site. The property was clean, rooms were large, and the location on Marathon Key was perfect. The pool was in good condition and it was fun to paddle around the cove on the complimentary kayaks.

We stayed at the Bonefish Motel and were genuinely impressed. We do not typically stay at motels, but this little gem exceeded our expectations and was better maintained than some four star hotels we have visited. The room was extremely clean, thoughtfully arranged, and very comfortable. The beds and pillows were excellent, and the split air conditioning system kept the room at the perfect temperature without any issues. The kitchen was well stocked, and there was plenty of coffee available. The location is also very convenient, especially if you are visiting the Key Colony area. This is a charming, well cared for property, and we would absolutely recommend giving it a try.

We stayed in the main building of the property. The room was spacious and well appointed including a hair dryer and kitchenette with microwave.They have free bikes and canoes available for guests. The ladies at reception were very helpful and nice. The place is close to the Marathon Lady docks where we took a fishing trip that was great fun. There is a pickle ball court, bbq and a pool. It was scorching hot so it would be nice if they planted more trees for greater shade. We had a nice stay- thank you!
