Unforgetabble week-end

We noticed that the reception is particularly neat. The rooms are comfortable. Food is correct and the restaurant on the beach is a great moment of pleasure. The two swimming pools are really of beautiful size and well maintained. The activities suggested also make the charm of the stay and the beach is a true place of relaxation.

Nice days off !!

This trip was very nice and relaxing. I met nice people in town. I was there for only 3 days. The hotel wasn't far from the main attractions. People working at the hotel was very gentle and helping. The restaurant was excellent, it was open outside so we could eat right on their private beach ;). I didn't get their best room but it was perfect for me. I really recommend this hotel to everyone. I would definitely stay there again if I go back to Key West again.

Beautiful & clean - service mediocre

The facility is beautiful and well maintained. It was a nice setting to meet and celebrate the 50th birthdady of a friend. Unfortunately the wait staff was 0 for 2 in getting simple food orders correct. Housekeeping could show up anytime between 9 and 5, seemed to take forever - and had difficulty communicating in English. We'd definitely like to go back to Key West - but will try a different place next time.

The Perfect Vacation

We stayed in a room with a large balcony and we couldn't have had a better time...the hotel was beautiful, the pools were amazing and the view from the room was spectacular. We can't wait to go back next year and stay in the same room. So phenomenal!!!

The perfect vacation begins here!

Casa Marina is a beautiful hotel. The location is lovely and the staff could not have been friendlier or more accommodating. The grounds are kept clean. [...] at the front desk was wonderful. We stayed for seven days and six nights. We enjoyed the local restaurants (especially Azur), shopped, listened to music on Duval Street and relaxed by the pool and beach. We can't wait to go back and wouldn't change a thing.

Azur was recommended to us by the staff at Casa Marina. We went there for breakfast twice and dinner once. It was fabulous! We also enjoyed the Banana Cafe for breakfast.

Great time

My only complaint is that the bathroom in the room (single king bed) was a little small. Otherwise, the whole thing was great! Gorgeous view, very helpful and friendly staff-readily available. Daily hotel fees so you don't have to pay for each and every little thing- internet, towels by the pool- etc. Room was clean, we rented bikes and got massages, no hassle. Thank you!

Money-saving tip: Long walk from hotel

To the end of Duval, Mallory Square, is about a half an hour walk. So wear comfortable shoes, or rent bikes. It's an easy ride. We took one of those bike pedaled taxis, $28! for a short distance! so walk, or ride bikes.

Great relaxing vacation

This location is a beautiful resort with access to all you want for a relaxing vacation, pools, beach, great friendly attendants and great atmosphere. Resort offered fun little perks and programs. All of the staff were friendly and helped make the vacation! This is a great way to stay in a resort but still be close to all the downtown key west experiences with quick bike ride, cab or walk.

Casa Marina evaluation

Hotel location is far from the Duval street "action". Quiet. Although barely occupied, service was below par. The room was "ok" and when asked for a payable upgrade they said the hotel was full. Judging from the "crowds" it had less than 10% occupancy. There are better restaurants outside. Hotel restaurants offer standard fare but they are convenient. Nice sandy beach.

Nice hotel but has its downfalls

The hotel was nice, rooms clean, and customer service was good. It was a little far from Duval Street which is one of the main attractions, it also means less options close by for food. But that did make it a quite location. So as long as your up for walking or taking a cab (which was around $12 a trip) I was not impressed with the private beach, there was a lot of coral so you had to walk on the peer before jumping in the water. The biggest mistake we made was eating breakfast at the hotel which cost $20 a person for a buffet set up. I also suggest if you want to rent a moped don't do it from the hotel, there are a lot of other cheaper options.
