"Property and room was immaculate! Beautiful and modern decor. Welcoming in every way. Everything you need to relax. Many close restaurants and shopping to bike to. Prime location!
Highly recommend by all 4 of my family members. "
"While Expedia listed our room as “not in main building, canal view”, there was no indication on the map of the property that our room would be in a building across a road with vehicles traveling 55+mph. The staff was kind and the property nice, but we were disappointed to have to either watch for speeding vehicles or get in our car to drive and park the car in order to sit by the water. The main property was relaxing, but it felt stressful to know we couldn’t walk out of our room and get to the beach, on site restaurant, or amenities without crossing the busy main road, especially at night for dinner. With my two sons along, I didn’t feel comfortable sending them across to the main areas without accompanying them. The one bedroom was large and our outdoor balcony was very nice and spacious. It may have been on me to figure out that we had to cross the street to get to the water, but the map was definitely not clear upon booking. "
"Ok so couple issues!
We luv Checca but this time was just meh!
1)So not huge issue but while fishing hook came off only had use one rod for more than half of time. When returned we advised situation and personnel clearly to bust to be bothered. It’s not about the cost issue it comes down to basic customer service issues! For a place like this and for the rates they charge the experience should be close to spectacular!
2) food? Hmm where do I begin? Normally we would never complain and say sometimes it’s part of it, but when there’s an issue more than once it’s not a fluke!
Service at pool and beach always busy. Not really staff or server isssue, but if your waiting an hour -1hr 30mins for food that’s an issue. When you wait that long and it’s cold! That’s another issue. When it’s cold and u get FF that are never good cold, when they arrive looking like they were basted in oil soggy dripping with lifelessness especially when that’s all u order sides of fries? Really how hard is it to fry fries? B4 responding my family owned and operated seafood and steak restaurants for 30 years and I worked every station often so I know the answer!
3)so golf in pretty ruff shape from tools to use to maintenance of the course. I know it’s a luxury item not professional course etc but it should still be maintained with a standard that it clearly isn’t!
4) the mattresses in the bedroom were toast! You sank well I could continue but I’m just not going to!
This trip sadly not a great experience "
"Ocean view, clean and spacious. Convenient parking out front. Staff was very friendly and was available to answer any questions.
Disappointed though that the restaurant was not operating nor the Tiki Bar. Our cottage was not outfitted with a blender or kettle. "
"Incredible location, peaceful and beautifully maintained surroundings, fantastic “Old Florida” charm, and very clean rooms, kitchen is a huge bonus, water views are truly special."
"This was absolutely horrible! Amara Cay overbooked us, tried to blame Expedia, ruined our trip and moved us to their sister site even though our friends were staying there. "
"This is not a very great "resort" or hotel be any means. Cleaning is minimal. Found hair all over the linen, so it wasn't washed. Kinda yuck.
Staff: says front desk is open 8a - 4p. A sign on the door says 9:30a to 4p, but they don't open until sometime way after 9:30. No vending machines. No way to get any equipment or towels because the office is closed so much.
No idea what the wifi password was. Couldn't find it and office was not ooen to ask.
AC window units are rough, rusted out. Rooms are tiny, best for only 2-3 people.
Nice pool and view of ocean. You CANNOT SWIM at the beach. There is a seawall. But that is the theme for most of the Keys.
On a scale of 1-10, my wife, daughter, and I all agree it is a 5 to 6."
