I stay at Seashell Beach Resort year after year. Its the real Florida that I remember as a boy. If you think going to Orlando is visiting Florida than stay out of the Keys. If you like quiet and beautiful views this is the place to be. Take a spin in the Kayack. Grill some fish and share it with... More

My wife and I just returned from a 5-night stay at the Seashell Beach Resort. After reading all of the mixed reviews online, we wasn't sure what to expect. We were both very pleasantly surprised. We stayed in Room 9, which is the King Studio with ocean view. It is a basic room but has recently been renovated so it... More

If you're in need of a place to stay overnight, this hotel is ok but I wouldn't stay for any other reason. It's not a resort, they don't have a pool or any amenities. The room was extremely outdated and dire need of just even some minimal sprucing up. The bed was extremely uncomfortable, it was sunken in the middle... More

This is a small hotel on North side of Marathon ( Grassy Key) if you want the Ritz.. go to the Ritz, but if you want a quaint laid back place to stay ( only 60 miles to key west) 10 miles north of 7 mile bridge this is a nice place. The beach and grounds are more white coral... More

I have a very bad experience with the responsible persons about sales department, they are very lazy, very arrogant, late to respond and not efficient at all. We are a very big company used to make big activities, I do not know what they are doing with the small companies.... They have to revise their strategy or they will lose... More

View: Spectacular, ocean front (we were in room 10, two bedroom suite) Location: Excellent. Convenient and close to all convenience stores such as CVS, Winn Dixie, Publix. Quiet? During the day yes, but if your bedroom is facing the ocean side with windows, around 2-3 am hotel guests love to hang out in beach chairs under your windows and talk... More

We stayed @ the Seashell during a horrific storm where everything in the keys was flooded from key largo to key west. Tho there was some flooding in our lovely little inexpensive sea level room, we were offered a top shelf room for the following nights @the same price. Well appointed, w kitchen, & well decorated w beautiful ocean view... More

Rooms here are small and the property a bit dated, but it was acceptable for me by myself. I probably wouldn't stay with my girlfriend. There's not really a beach to speak, more like just a shore and you probably won't spend any time on it. I'd go to Bahia Honda State Park for the beach just to the west.... More

The motel is a concrete block on a bay where the trash is swept by the tides. The decaying seagrass and ocean trash smell awful. The only escape is at the end of the dock. The AC is classic window mounted and noisy. It's also on the overseas highway so it's really noisy. The good side is that it has... More
