Best Service in The Keys!

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 9 Oct 2024
My go to place in the Florida Keys! Hurricane Helene took the trip with us and did its damage that marred the property…but the staff worked efficiently and made our stay as comfortable as possible. They did their best to accommodate us as if we were part of their family! Special thanks to Savannah, Shelby, and Hailey for their care and attention to us! You made that stay that much better for us!

Very nice hotel in beautiful neighborhood in Key Colony, FL. Peaceful beach and nice pool by the seaside. The property was recently hit by the outer bands of Hurricane Helene, but the staff was working diligently to put everything back together. Definitely coming back.

Room tip: Spacious parking is available for guests. There is a restaurant in the hotel serving fresh catch and drinks.

Not sure what others saw that we apparently missed in our visit to the Glunz Resort. Because it is apparently the "off season", the restaurant was closed. Then there was the lack of cool water from the faucets on probably one of the hottest days of the year. Finally, there was the small room over-looking the residential area (i.e., not the ocean) which failed to impress us. Over-all, it was disappointing and a poor value for this time of the year in the Keys. And to top it off, even the palm tree in the beach side of the hotel has been battered to the point of appearing as an eye sore. Over-all, we apparently missed the resort everywhere but in the room price and resort fees...

Room tip: Negotiate a better price at check-in. There weren't many guests there while we were visiting, so they may be willing to make you a deal.

Mr. 320RobertS,

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are sad that this trip was not the experience you were looking forward to. Thank you for bringing the cold-water issue to our attention. We have since sent our maintenance team to evaluate it. We do have rooms that offer ocean view as well as larger rooms than the one you choose to reserve. Mother nature is very brutal especially with plants that grow in direct wind. We do hope that you will give us another chance to give you that "Resort" experience that you were looking forward to.

Really lovely hotel with super staff, clean and spacious rooms with good facilities. Get the ocean view rooms for the amazing views, the hotel is on the beach and the ocean was lovely and warm in September. The pool and hot tub are clean and chilled.
We went early September, Havana Jacks bar next door was closed for maintenance but the walk to the Key Colony Inn, the Island Fish Co and Sharkeys landing are all very doable.
Really really enjoyed our stay, we can’t recommend the Glunz enough, we will certainly be back.

We had a great time here, we got an excellent room that walked straight onto the beach. We felt safe in the area and routinely got to experience a very care free time. The pools were both excellent, including a very nice hot tub. The restaurant within walking distance to our room was also fantastic, would recommend the burger. We also had a great time with the staff who were always kind and helpful when we needed anything, in particular, Savanna was great whenever we needed anything after hours. I would fully recommend visiting.

Pleasant surprise
We enjoyed the pool mostly and the thunderstorms the other day.

Nice staff in office

Beach looks nice but a little rocky and has sea grass on shore but that was typical all over the keys.

The room was standard but we had a view of the ocean .
Bed was comfortable but pillows way too high for my neck. Ended up using a towel rolled up for a pillow.
I could have used more of a comforter on the bed, they had a sheet and a very thin cover. I was cold. Husband was fine.

There are bikes to use and paddle boards we did not take advantage of that.

We hope to come back another time.
