Ever been somewhere and feel there's something very important you have to do? Maybe it's fishing or scuba diving or nothing at all. The subtropical ambiance of the Kon Tiki Resort is that kind of place. You can enjoy swimming, fishing, diving, snorkeling and boating all year round. You'll be in paradise while soaking up the sun next to our heated freshwater pool or on the sandy beach of our private lagoon. more » « less

My husband and I stayed at the Kon-Tiki resort from March 28-31, 2008 and found it to be just what the doctor ordered. We stayed in Unit #2 which was perfect for what we needed. It was clean, the bed was comfortable and the deck was a lovely place to watch the sun dip while sipping a drink. It has... more

We have been coming to the Kon Tiki for years. Every year the managers attitudes are worse but the prices keep going up! It starts with the managment, they are un-freindly with no hospitality or customer service skills. We feel like year after year that they could care less that we are the customer. This last time the boat docks... more

Returning home from a 4 day fishing trip to Islamorada was such a bummer! The best fishing spot on the East Coast has to be the waters surrounding Islamorada. My accomodations at the Kon Tiki Resort were just perfect. Not the Ritz, but very comfortable and clean and just what I was looking for. This was not my first stay... more

I just enjoyed my 25th straight year at the Kon Tiki Resort. My husband and his family have been going to the Kon Tiki for about 40 years. We have raised our family of 3 boys with summers at the Kon Tiki. There is no place better to chill out and relax. Very casual atmosphere. Great fishing. The pool was... more

My family and I have been vacationing at Kon Tiki Resort since 1996. I have been going there long enough to see a fair share of property and office managers come and go over the last 11yrs. Kon Tiki is now under new management and the changes are breath taking! The grounds are imaculant and landscaped beautifly. The staff is... more

First off, i must say that i live in South Florida and i go to the Keys quite often. After reading a couple of the other reviews, i just have to laugh because i'm not quite sure what some people are expecting driving south of the Last Chance Saloon. The Ritz, The Omni??? Give me a break. People go to... more

If you are expecting a laid back property, clean but of an era on independant hotels in the Keys, this is it. It looks like it was built in the 60's and other than good maintainance, nothing much has changed. Its old Florida, not a Hampton Inn or a mega resort. Bring friends, a laid back attitude and appreciate the... more

We enjoyed our stay, but our room was a little worn. Nothing that ruined our stay, just a few minor annoyances which management promptly addressed. We would definately consider staying there again. The units are all individually owned and part of a condo or co-op operation. That may explain the variation in condition between units, individual owners being reluctant to... more

We only had one night in Islamorada and many resorts were booked and I was a bit nervous about the Kon Tiki given the mixed reviews, but was pleasantly surprised by the cleanliness of the room and the lovely grounds. We had a double motel room, which was small but spotless. We saw one of the bedroom/kitchen units and it... more
