I went for my birthday and absolutely loved the place! Is very cute, well maintained, the staff is very friendly and is an excellent option....if you don’t want to spend $300 per night in a hotel. The most important factors are that is affordable and clean. I work for the hotel industry and selected this motel based on the trip... More

The motel is centrally situated in Marathon and very handy for Sombrero Beach and other local attractions. Our room was spacious, clean and well equipped, with a very comfortable king size bed. The staff were very helpful, especially Ryan who was there when we checked in and the night before we checked out so helped us sort out various queries... More

What a find! This charming, old fashioned motel has great character! It's clean and lovingly maintained, and very comfortable -- we didn't want to leave! Our room had an extremely comfortable king-sized bed ... I haven't slept that soundly in a motel/hotel in years. There was a small fridge, a microwave and a coffee maker. Tile flooring, rather than carpeting,... More

The structure of the Sea Dell Motel is showing its age, but our room was equipped with an eye to detail and comfort. It had quality furniture, lovely soft blankets and brilliant bedside lighting (whose heat was noisily counteracted by a bulky air-conditioning unit). The decent-sized room also had coffee-maker, a fridge, and a small microwave oven: it was ideal... More

Sea Dell Motel, Florida Keys...affordable, lovely and everything you could hope for that has that old traditional Keysie feel. The owners have put a LOT of TLC into this little place. After having stayed in a variety of places over the years, up and down the keys, it is so refreshing to see that everything isn't being gobbled up and... More

We have used this motel for several years, during dive trips to the keys. It is an old Florida Motel, but in great shape, nice appearance and constantly improved by the hard working owners. Clean, nice people, friendly and alert staff. A remarkable value for the money, as well as a pleasant place to stay. Perfect for Divers, as the... More

I ended up at the Sea Dell motel because my dive shop is next door and this was one of the last places that had any rooms available for the entire week. I wasn't looking for anything special, just a place to crash to be ready to scuba dive. I was so surprised at how nice the room was (since... More

Stayed (and reviewed) 4 years ago; just got back from our 2-night second stay - in the same unit, even! We stayed in #23 which is one of their "extra large double" rooms - it was an accessible/handicapped unit but gave us the room we needed for our family. I am happy to say that the quality and my recommendation... More
