Drop Anchor Resort & Marina

I booked a Resort Queen Family Suite with Kitchen. I thought we'd have an ocean view from the photos we saw on *******. We asked, but they said no. The room looked clean, but during the night, a cockroach came out. We couldn't sleep after that. We waited until dawn, and my husband told the front desk, and the response was that it wasn't under their control and that it was Florida. The hotel was expensive. The pool was fine, and the surrounding areas were clean.The experience was not good.

Good price and clean Great place. I enjoyed the beach area and how we could walk to a few good dive bars w live music. Very clean and included a kitchen snd good size shower. Only complaint would be the blinds did not close all the way and parking lot coyld see in at night.

On the third night of our 3-night stay and wishing we could stay forever! We splurged on a direct ocean front room and it is worth every penny. This place is by no means fancy but it is old Florida at its finest: cozy, chill, unpretentious. Add in a heated pool and a drip (not pod!!) coffeemaker and all boxes have been checked. As with most of the upper keys there is no true walkout sandy beach but you can use the kayak ramp to get in an ocean swim. Note mucky bottom so mann up or wear swim shoes! Received lovely service from Daniel at front desk and housekeeper could not have been kinder. DROP ANCHOR IS A GEM

My boyfriend and I stayed here one night on Saturday, March 8th. The property was okay...but not anywhere near worth $400 for the night..even on a Saturday during spring break. Biggest issue was the old TV in the room - the screen died after 15mins of use. It came back on after 5minutes, and then died again promptly after that.. I let the office know, and the next day they called me saying "the TV is perfectly fine." So, they don't believe their guests when they say something is wrong. No refund either. So if you stay in Room 16, beware that the old TV dies after 15 minutes of being on.

Disappointing. Not as pictured. It’s not really a beach and you can’t get in the water from property. It’s on a sea wall. Very clean. Bathroom was tiny and futon/couch very uncomfortable as a couch.
