What guests say
8.5 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 696 guest reviews
Coral Key Inn earns consistently warm reviews for its unbeatable beachfront location, genuinely friendly staff, and spacious, clean rooms — making most guests feel well looked after. The recurring caveat is that the property is ageing, with dated décor, soft floorboards, occasional cleanliness oversights, and noise transmission between floors being the most common gripes. Guests who embrace its 'old Florida' character and prioritise proximity to the beach over modern finishes tend to leave very satisfied.
