The resort was great, staff was awesome, food was pretty good! While the room was mostly great there were a few things that could use attention. 1. Shower had some mold spots. This is most likely due to not having a bathroom exhaust fan in the bathroom. 2. The pocket door was pretty much a two person job to open and close. 3. The slider didn’t lock. As for the resort, overall was great. Kept clean, lots to do. The market place was expensive but it is what it is. The hours were a little off and it was odd that the marketplace was locked with chains from the inside. The coral cay bathroom was dated. Needs some touching up from the peeling paint. Can totally tell that it was the original area for the pool bath.

We stayed one of the rooms with two queen beds. The room was fairly clean, but the design of the bathrooms leave a lot to be desired. The door, specifically was very difficult to open and close. I love the design of it, but it could have been so much better, for instance, how about adding a handle so that you can actually close the door? The toilet and shower area should have been separated by a door as well so that the sink area is usable by one other person. The shower has no hooks for hanging clothes or towels and no handles to hold onto in case an older person, such as myself needs assistance in and out of the bathtub. Essence, these bathrooms need to be updated for safety and convenience.

This is our 3rd time staying at Hawks Cay and we can’t speak highly enough about the resort, and its staff. It is the perfect middle point in the keys - providing you with the ability to explore north and south. The staff are friendly and accommodating. We accidentally left a life jacket on a chair near the marketplace and it was still there the following morning! It is clean, safe and perfect for families traveling with small children. We CANNOT wait to be back again! My only tiniest complaint would be that it cost $42 for 2 margaritas- where back in 2022 it was $30. Needless to say, that was the only time we had a drink by the pool. Otherwise a truly amazing experience yet again.

I liked having two pools one for the kids and one for the adults. The third pool was closed for unknown reasons. Check in at desk took way too long. We were okay with waiting until the Villa was ready but then we were told we needed to go back to reactivate wrist bands which we did only to be told it didn't matter. We go back to villa (walk) and bands don't work. We were unable to unlock villa and told to go back to front to activate wrist band but then maintenance let us in. Had dinner at restaurant with over an hour wait and the food took way too long and was way overcooked. Would never go back. Very pricey.

Staff was really friendly and accommodating. Overall grounds were nice. We stayed in one of the town homes. A couple of nights the neighbors were up late and being loud and inconsiderate. Disappointed on the people staying there and the amount of random trash they left. Great place for younger kids, there were a lot of them. The amount of elementry age kids was a distraction from the overall beauty of the place.

Really a great place for families to stay in the Keys. We were here in peak season (spring break) and found it difficult to find chairs by the pool or lagoon. The wifi was really poor in our lodgings. The villa was clean and comfortable but a bit dated. I loved that they offered on site activities- we were able to enjoy the dolphin experience and the snorkeling adventure. Onsite restaurants were very good. Staff was friendly and helpful.
