A simple driveway in a small residential neighborhood leads you to private, quiet oasis. The grounds are well maintained daily by the staff. At night, lighting shows all of the property features. Coral stone pathways line the area. You can enjoy the firepit, pool, read or play a game of chess in the outdoor lounge area. The updated rooms are... More

We stayed here one night on the way to Key West. As soon as we checked in, I knew that was a huge mistake and we should have stayed longer. What a fantastic little gem. The saltwater pool is great, the two cabanas are just the right amount of private, the beach and the hammock were ideal and the firepit... More

Our stay at the Ocean House was incredible! The rooms are beautiful, clean and very soothing. The bed was extremely comfortable with pillows and bedding that were heavenly. The kitchen was equipped with a granite countertop, stainless steel appliance, and the refrigerator filled with items we found indulging. Breakfast brought to the room each morning………………..fabulous! The gardens are incredibly gorgeous... More

What an incredible place. The owners have built a wonderful, charming place that we can all appreciate. Details in the construction of the lodging, landscaping are perfect. It makes you feel like it's your place in this romatic key of Islamorada. My wife and I have traveled the world and stayed at quaint B&B's to 5 Star resorts of the... More

We wished we stayed longer. We were there with only one other group - 1 family in 2 rooms - so it was very quiet around the pool and out at the back. The pool and 'beach' were very nicely done and lovely to relax around. The free kayaks and bikes were great as well. The staff were also really... More

Just finished staying there this week and I was disappointed. There were many things the resort fell far short to be considered called a "luxury " resort. The resort's definition of a private beach and mine are miles apart. There is no private beach except a very small entrance by way of rocks and seaweed to get to the ocean.... More

Thank you for your comments. Our resort is designed to appeal primarily to adults for a stay in a quiet intimate atmosphere. I’m sorry that you were disappointed with our beach. Because our reef protects our shorelines, the Florida Keys do not have large wide and long beaches that you see on the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts. However, it is... More

The grounds are spectacular and it is very private. I realize you do not spend TOO much time in your room, BUT you do have to sleep...it is quite loud if you have a ground floor room and the beds really are terrible (and I am not picky about my bed!) We both woke up with a sore back. We... More

Just returned from Ocean House, this resort is almost perfect. Very upscale, very private, and very relaxing. The staff went out of the way to make the stay perfect. If you have high expectations, this place is for you. We took the complimentary bikes and toured about 5 other resorts on Islamorada and nothing compares except maybe Checa Lodge, and... More

We just returned from an extremely relaxing and quiet vacation in Islamorada Key at the Ocean House Boutique Hotel. It's recently been renovated, and they did it right! The grounds are beautiful, with a nice clean and very private pool. In addition, the sandy ocean front lounge chairs were so relaxing where you get a nice breeze and endless horizon... More
