It was a clean and affordable room right where I needed one. It has canal access to the Atlantic and I could moor my boat right outside of my room. The Tiki bar does live music and I could hear it inside my room at night so be aware. Nice and accommodating people who like to help.
Room was clean. Air conditioner was loud and the bed was pretty hard. But overall it was fine. Having the Tiki Bar right next door was very convenient as well as Boondocks right across the street which was a 2 minute walk.
Room was really clean and receptionist very friendly. Travelling with my son so had a nice big bed each. Balcony was nice and its only 35 mins to Key West which was oerfect
The room was fair at best, even though recently repainted. The floors were very slippery so whatever they’re using to clean the floors, made it unsafe, especially with damp or wet feet after diving the grounds were a fair at best with areas needing maintenance. The service was fair at best.
We enjoyed our three night stay. We dived Looe Key reef every day through their dive shop. Safe shallow diving with excellent storage, easy access and excellent staff. Left the afternoon/evening open to relax or go into town. About 50 minutes from Key West. Recommend car rental for your stay

This is a very REASONABLY priced lodging for the FL Keys so expect simple things. We had a great stay, room was clean, the young gent at the front desk was exceptionally friendly and helpful, ditto at checkout. The beds are comfortable. The shower head had great pressure and the onsite tiki bar is a big plus. There were no plastic cups or coffee maker in the room but there was a microwave and fridge and table with two chairs. The ice machine was not working but there is a quickie mart just next door for that if you needed it. Could the resort be flashier, yes it could but Looe Key Reef Resort offered us a cost effective comfy safe stay in a place where time in the room was not important. We did not use the pool or the dive/snorkle amenities as we came down to fish, but if you wanted that stuff it’s all here. We hope to be back soon.
The people are nice. But the rooms were horrible. Ants in one bed so we used the other bed only to wake up with bugs crawling under our sheet. The fixtures were rusty and the floor was full of sand. We would never stay here again.

Air conditioning barely kept up with the heat. Everything in the room felt damp. No light bulbs in the night stands. Limited electrical receptacles. Ice machine was inoperable the entire stay. Not hardly resort status.
Snorkeling was great and boat staff was excellent. Front desk and employees were helpful.
When booking on line the room states it slept 6. 2 queens and a pullout couch. The pull out couch was broken and unable to be used. The walls had plaster coming off of them, a whole in the ceiling, orange slim on the shower curtain, air conditioners were not working well so the rooms were hot. We turned on the ceiling fan to circulate the air and it wobbled and made a grinding noise so bad we thought it would fall out of the ceiling. And let’s talk about the clean sheets that were stained and the crumbs on the futon and couch which were probably left for the rats we saw outside. On a positive note it didn’t smell like cigarette smoke and the 4 locks on the outside door made us feel extra safe along with the dead bolt and lock on the bedroom door.
