Our stay at Amara Cay Resort was not as expected. The location was nice, and the personnel friendly. However, there were several areas that could use significant improvement, especially considering the price. My biggest concern was the pool area. There was no personnel supervising the pool, and I saw several guests getting into the pool wearing dirty sandals. I also saw a large dog sitting on a pool chair, and later its owner used one of the pool towels provided for guests to dry the dog. This is a major sanitary oversight, and after seeing this, I did not feel comfortable getting into the pool or using the towels. There isn't much of a beach, and it could use better cleaning and maintenance. The water was only ankle-deep, making it impossible to swim, and there was also a significant amount of sargassum. I think the resort could do a much better job maintaining, cleaning and improving the beach. If you're looking for a peaceful stay, be aware that there is live music near the rooms facing the pool from approximately 6–10 PM. The noise was disruptive and made it difficult to relax or sleep. After complaining, the staff moved us to a room facing the sea, where the sound did not travel as much. The other room option appeared to be facing a parking lot, which was unacceptable. We did not eat at the hotel, so I can't comment on it. Amara Cay was not the escape we were hoping for, and the resort experience left us feeling that there is significant room for improvement.

We had an amazing stay at Amara Cay Resort! The property was beautiful, clean, and relaxing, with an incredible waterfront setting and a true tropical Keys atmosphere. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout our entire stay. The pool and outdoor areas were perfect for relaxing, and the location made it easy to enjoy everything Islamorada has to offer. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would absolutely recommend Amara Cay to anyone visiting the Florida Keys. We’re already looking forward to coming back!

The front desk staff & the shuttle drivers were amazing. As for the bartenders outside in the pool deck, they weren’t the nicest nor attentive & other guest had made the same complaints. We understand it can get busy, but they wouldn’t pay attention to who’s been waiting for the longest to get helped. Aside from that, the A/C on both rooms booked, were not cold at all & had been locked. We sweated the whole night through. Lastly, I did find a tiny roach near the coffee machine in the room. Oh! Ziggie & Mad Dogs was terrible! 8 of us & not one order came in good. I highly recommend you go elsewhere.

Love this place, but it needs to be better maintained. Up close, everything is looking tired – chipped paint, rusty equipment, busted fixtures. It could go from 3 to 4/5 stars with more attention to detail.
