I spoke to the manager (who later claimed to be the owner when I tried to report him) for over 30 minutes about making a reservation for one night. When I called back to book, he claimed I could not stay for one night (even though he assured me this was possible before). Then he proceeded to hang up on... More

We made reservations by phone and negotiated a price. When we arrived I tried to pay them right away but they did not want a check which I thought was quite strange. Upon check out, they had a prepared receipt for 430 dollars more than our agreed upon price. I have no doubt about the price as when I confirmed... More

it is old...but what a beautiful location! I would not recommend room 7 the bed was broken and the shades were filthy! I think this could be a charming motel with a little paint and TLC! It is located right on the beach and the staff is friendly! Just needs a little care!

It's old... but if you can stay in Cottages 5 or 10 on the beach or Cottage 14 just across the street... then it is well worth it. The beachfront cottages have 2 BR, 2 full baths, living room, full kitchen, brkfst area and covered patio for $200/night. Cottage 14 has 1 BR downstairs w/full bath, a private loft BR... More

If you are looking for a resort...this isn't it. If you want basic accomodations in a quieter location; it is. We stay on Casey Key a couple of times a year and decided to try here. This place is older and quaint. Here is my review. I would have given it a 3 1/2 overall for what it was. On... More

When planning a trip, I rely heavily on tripadvisor to scope out interesting destinations to visit and cool places to stay. Over the course of the years, I’ve posted a lot of questions and have gotten a ton of terrific advice from the trip advisor community, but to this point haven’t really contributed much in the way of relaying my...

I will start off by saying I do not need the Ritz, I just want a clean, fresh room. First off when we came inside our room it smelled so bad of cigarette smoke, I mean 50 yrs worth of cigarette smoke. I checked the beds and the bottom mattress was filthy and there looked to be blood on the... More

For the price they charge, there needs to be at least a door that locks, sheets and comforter that don't have holes in them, looks like something you would not even take to a thrift store. Lights that work without it making a sizzling sound like wires burning. The plus, a nice beach across the street, we would have been... More

Our family has spent several weeks here every summer for 10+ years, so we know the place and the owner well. There are no chain hotels on Casey Key, so what's there are small mom & pop style motels. If you want an upscale resort & spa with room service, Casey Key may not be for you. But, if you... More
