What guests say
7.8 / 10 · Good on Booking.com, from 564 guest reviews
Amara Cay Resort earns consistent praise for its attractive waterfront setting, genuinely friendly staff, and strong lineup of complimentary activities — making it a pleasant Florida Keys base. However, recurring frustrations around overpriced food and drinks, slow service, worn room conditions, and one notable security concern bring the experience down a notch. Guests looking primarily for beach swimming should be aware of sargassum season and limited direct water access.
