The Islander is a great place for families with lots of activities to keep the kids busy. Our only problem was that the bed was like sleeping on a concrete slab. The staff was very helpful in trying to make us happy but they had no other mattresses or rooms they could accomodate us with so they did not charge... more

We enjoyed our stay at the Islander Resort. We had adjoining rooms with our kids, that were accessed through a screened porch. It gave us the right amount of privacy, but allowed us to be together as a family. My kids had a lot of fun fishing off the pier. We also enjoyed snorkeling in the enclosed swimming area. It... more

The resort was very disappointing. We had two rooms. When we checked in one of the rooms had ants in it. I mentioned it to the front desk and they sent someone to spray for the ants. They killed some of the ants but did not take the time to clean up the dead ants. When we returned we not... more

I knew it was going to be a great place from the beginning. As soon as we walked in to the front desk, the staff was very nice. The room was spacious and had an awesome view (room 411). The screened in porch was a definite plus. Very cozy...Had everything we needed. The location was great; it seemed like everything... more

I was at the Islander from May 24-May 27th. Upon arrival check-in was easy and very informative on the hotel grounds and given a map. Went to the room and it was to me as pictured online, no complaints there. For me and my sister it was a large room and we were thankful for the large fridge/microwave ;0) My... more

We had booked our reservations based on the website, which depicts a beautifully renovated hotel and describes the accommodations as "classic elegance". When we arrived and looked at the room we were very disappointed. The room and bath were small, very spartan, with a substandard bed - clearly not "elegant". We had stayed at many other FL Keys hotels and... more

Our large family has been going fishing in the Florida Keys for over 40 years. We wrote a glowing review of The Islander 3 years ago but we were extremely disappointed this trip. Management was never seen. There was loud, blasting salsa music coming from several rooms>some outside so you could hear it everywhere. One night I went to the... more

Went for Memorial Day weekend.........what a mistake! Neighbors had about 12 people in a room designed for four. Garbage consisting of empty beer cans and water bottles greeted us outside our screen door every morning. Loud salsa/bongo music at night until 2AM, then started again at 9AM. Unfortunately, this does nothing to dispel the typical stereotypes of Latins, etc. It's... more
