What guests think

At Casa Morada, travellers praise the serene waterfront setting, romantic vibe, and relaxing, low-key atmosphere, with beautiful sunsets, quiet grounds, and complimentary kayaks, paddleboards, bikes, yoga, and a continental breakfast frequently noted as highlights.

Staff are widely described as friendly and accommodating, with helpful check-ins and thoughtful local recommendations. Rooms are often comfortable and spacious with great views, though a few guests found some units dated, occasionally noisy near the kitchen, or missing conveniences, and one reported spotty Wi‑Fi. Amenities feel boutique—there’s a small pool and beer‑and‑wine bar, and while most enjoyed breakfast, some wanted more variety; rare closures or service gaps were mentioned. Expect a peaceful boutique retreat ideal for unwinding by the water.

I stayed with my wife a few years ago and felt that the experience was better then. This time the pool was closed one first of our two day stay. Breakfast could be better adding cheese ham etc. the hotel manager was very kind but I felt the price is high for the overall experience

Stayed overnight while attending a wedding on Islamorada. Room was comfortable and the property was beautiful! Wish we were able to stay for more than one night. Was pleasantly surprised to learn of the morning yoga class on Sunday mornings! Felt great to stretch and practice mindfulness. Will definitely stay at Casa Morada again in the future!

What a great place for a romantic getaway, quiet, secluded, friendly staff and visitors. Having kayak, paddle board, bicycles, yoga classes, breakfast, all complimentary and right on site was so nice and convenient, never had to wait or have a time limit for any of them. Nice sunset sail with a very nice Captain Bill was an added bonus. Would love to visit again!!!

A hidden gem. It feels like we have the whole place and it’s quiet and peaceful. So many free activities you can do. They have their own paddle boards and kayak so you can do it for free when you stay with them. Definitely coming back again for our summer vacation

While our stay was short, what a nice experience. After leaving the hustle and bustle of Key West, it was great to unwind at this quaint quiet boutique hotel. Loved the pool, beach area and small private bar in back while enjoying ocean views. Saw manatees, dolphins and beautiful sunsets! Will go back to Casa Morada again!

We picked Casa Morada from a hotels.com search. We didn’t know much about it going in. It’s a small resort which surprised us - in a good way! The setting is picture prefect and just what you want in an ocean front resort. The amenities are nice, pool, bar, bikes, walking paths, etc. Wish the bar was more than just beer and wine. The staff is small but mighty. Our room (the sun suite) was great - overlooked the ocean, pool and little bridge. The room was huge too - with a really cool love seat balcony. Highly recommend walking down the street to a cool Beach restaurant for dinner. Live music, decent food and a short walk from resort.

The view was 10/10. But unfortunately the actual room was lacking. There was no microwave, no fridge. The mini fridge that was in there was filled with sodas and drinks and had no room for my own drinks. There was no ceiling lights. Only an old lamp with a broken switch. Had to unscrew the bulb to turn off one side. The shower was very slippery and very high up. The WiFi was very spotty. It’s definitely a shame because the view was spectacular but everything was not great.

This is the most expensive hotel we’ve ever stayed in, so our expectations were pretty high. They were generally met, with just a little room for improvement here and there.

This is a laid back place arrived in cold windy weather. No heat In our room. No bar or lunch service or activities. Expensive at $650 a night and the kitchen prep woke us at 6:19 every morning. How ever the bed was excellent, the view good, staff friendly and our mood improved with the weather. By the end all was well.
