Motel style a bit old, didnt feel very clean although was ok. This was one of the most expensive places we stayed on a 3 month holiday around america and it really wasnt worth the money, nice pool though and a couple of nice hammocks right on the water, there are places for boats to moor. TV didnt work or... more

First I want to say I am not one to bash a hotel- I have stayed in Islamorada for the last five years on the return trip from Key West- So I am aware that we are in the Keys and everything is very laid back (actually this is the reason we keep coming back). When I called I asked... more

Drop Anchor is a well maintained motel and suites. The grounds are meticulously kept, the buildings have a fresh coat of paint. The Ocean side water frontage is calm with a lot of seating for relaxing and enjoyment. The pool is new. The rooms are clean, the pictures on their website are relatively accurate. The staff was friendly and helpful.... more

I just returned from a 3 night stay in room 12 and it was absolutely wonderful. I'd like to start off by saying that the website pictures were a 100% accurate representation of both the room and the gorgeous grounds. The resort is older but the only parts of the room that showed the age were the bathroom and the... more

We stayed at the Drop Anchor for four nights in April, and we wish we could have stayed a couple more. This is a pleasant and peaceful place, whether you are sitting on the beach, at the pool, or in your rooms. The rooms were uniquely decorated and very clean. Even though there were no vacancies during the time we... more

We just got back from the Drop Anchor Resort in Islamorada, FL and had a wonderful stay. Upon arrival, the owners greeted us and were very helpful, they continued to be accommodating and helpful for our entire 5 day stay, helping us with directions and places of interest. We stayed in room #2, ocean level and were not disappointed. The... more

I am not so enthusiastic about this place as other reviewers. The location is fine and the outdoor area is immaculately maintained with a good pool. hammocks, barbeques and plenty of seating and tables to eat at if you wish. It is in walking distance of a few bars and restaurants and we heard little traffic noise. However you do... more

Cute and convenient little resort priced right for two families on a budget with 5 kids total. We enjoyed using the grill and kitchen and eating at the picnic table for dinner. We all enjoyed the hammocks and chairs and watched the birds feast in the evening when the tide was low. The kids were able to do some fishing... more

We stayed 2 nights at the Drop Anchor in Room #4. The property has a lovely small beach and pool right outside your door. It was quiet and restful. The resort is old but very well maintained and very CLEAN. The young lady running the front desk was charming. The price is great and we would definitely stay here again. more

I remember the Drop Anchor Resort over 20 years ago and was amazed at the transformation since the new owners' purchase and remodel. It is a small place, but loved that almost every room had a view of the ocean. We had two rooms and found them both to be a good size and quite comfortable with king size bed... more
