Great budget place to stay in the Keys

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 20 Oct 2024
A budget holiday that exceeded our expectations. Basic, but very clean and comfortable rooms with small kitchen ( only thing I would have requested would be a small hob) and a good size bedroom and bathroom. The pool and bar were much used and the staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Jason the bartender was great at cocktails and chat. It’s not an attractive looking hotel from the outside and our balcony over looked the car park rather than the lovely boats on the other side of the building . That being said, it was a great location half way down the Keys to explore everything and a 15 minute bike ride from a super quiet beach, as well as being just around the corner from the Publix supermarket. Breakfast was included, which for the price , was a bonus . It was a basic set up ( plastic knives and forks etc) but the eggs etc were good . The pizza from the pool side bar was excellent and far superior to a pizza for double the price in Miami. All in all would highly recommend the place for a budget holiday. If you have a car it’s a great location , but they do have bikes and kayaks you can borrow if you want to stay local.

We only come here because of Lynn and the activities. She does such a wonderful job keeping our kids feeling welcomed. Thanks Lynn for all you do for the kids. My sons always talk about the times they hang out here. Also the food is absolutely amazing

Extremely entertaining trivia. Just not my genre of knowledge. The game was incredibly enjoyable even with multiple tie breakers. We learned a lot of new, fun trivia facts and we are excited to come back to try again for a possible future win!

Having a great time at Skipjack Resort and Marina. While here having lunch they had someone doing trivia. Kevin was our trivia wiz. He was fantastic! I loved that having someone passing the time away on a beautiful sunny afternoon was awesome. Hoping to return again soon. We had a great time! Jay our bartender was amazing and having Entertainment was a plus.

Such a beautiful resort with amazing staff and food! Katya made our visit extra special at the pool with games and her sweet way of making us feel at home. She is a great asset to the Skip Jack family! The grounds are well kept and the property is only a few minutes to the beautiful park and beach.

Katya was awesome with getting everyone involved in activities. We had a blast! We played golf, bucket pong, and pictionary. She even included the little kids in the games which was really cool! You get a free drink when you win a game. We will definitely be back for more poolside fun.
