What guests think

Across recent reviews, Chesapeake Beach Resort is praised for clean, updated rooms, a scenic oceanfront setting, and a relaxed vibe with pools, a small beach, and included water activities, while service and amenities feel mostly friendly and convenient.

Many enjoy the complimentary breakfast with made-to-order omelets and waffles by the water. Recurring downsides include traffic or neighbor noise in some rooms, occasionally loud or weak A/C and other maintenance hiccups, and a shallow, sometimes seaweed-filled shoreline that is less ideal for swimming. Service is generally warm but can be inconsistent, and there is no on-site restaurant and a resort fee applies. Expect a clean, low-key waterfront stay with strong breakfasts and active amenities.

We enjoyed so much staying at this property. The pool and beach area is so beautiful we did not want to go anywhere else. We were also available to use the marina which was a big plus. At check in we were greeted with a champagne glass which was on point. Vanessa at the front desk was super nice and very courteous. Jose at the bar goes above and beyond to serve good drinks. He also made us burgers and hot dogs on Sunday. At breakfast they have a chef making omelets and waffles which were amazing. 5 star! Overall was excellent, the only thing was we felt the double beds are more like twin beds. But after that excellent staff and property. We will definitely be back.

Very nice rooms. Comfortable beds. No restaurant on site but 2 are next door - no need to drive. Great beach. An area to walk out into the ocean with no plant life. Many of the beaches have plant life inside of clear sand. Kayaks and paddle boards to use free. A couple pools. Could use a refresh on the cleanup around the pool more than once a day but very relaxing and quiet. Upstairs units - stairs are wide and not steep. Easy if this would be an issue for you.

I was looking for a one night stay in Islamorada that wouldn't break the bank, but still be comfortable and clean. The Chesapeake Resort fit the bill! Rooms have been updated and resort was clean and quiet. It has a nice area for sunning and two pools. There isn't a restaurant or bar on site, but they do offer a very good continental breakfast with made to order eggs and a bar cart with quality liquor, beer, and wine. Also, two restaurants are within walking distance.

Centrally located in Islamorada and spotless property. Not a piece of trash anywhere. Comfortable beds, great towels. Resort seems newly built. Beautiful oceanside pool or second more private pool. Lots of loungers and umbrellas all along the beach. Accessible by boat with private lagoon. You can see and probably paddle to the sandbar from there. Only downside to me was highway noise, and neighbor noise. Seems like no soundproofing. You hear the trucks and your neighbors clearly all night long if you are in the cheaper rooms that are non-ocean front/view up closer to the roadway. Bring earplugs. Staff everywhere cleaning and fixing things up. Lots of different room and little “house” options. Property is huge. Kayaks, paddleboards there for a fee.

The room given was right by the main road so when you opened door to balcony you could only hear the sounds of the passing cars. Then there was done wall AC unit right about the bed headboard that was blowing hard and there was a thick layer of built up dust over 1 cm thick but when pointed out to front desk nobody could care less. They were not even full my guess is about 20 percent full if that. Other wise a very nice facility that has two pools, private beach and very nice water temp that we were able to really enjoy floating on the kayak

One of the pools had a dirty diaper left on a table. The staff dropped off towels but didn't look around to clean up left over cups, used diaper, etc. Granted guests should be responsible and clean up their own trash but it would be nice if the housekeeping would watch for this since I had to point it out. Other than that it was a great location and nice hotel. Two restaurants next door to the property so you don't have to drive if you don't want. Breakfast was great, made to order custom omelet, rooms had robes and slippers, there's paddle boards, clear bottom kayaks and fishing poles to use.

Dirty property not wonderful as Expedia rated . People had their dogs swimming in the pool staff did nothing about it and claimed they had no complaints . Felt like I was in a third world country not Islamorada . Shame on you Expedia for not allowing me to cancel my reservation & blaming me for contacting to late . Will never use you again or go to this disgusting hotel ! Beware is my word of caution to anyone considering this property or Expedia .

The view from my room was awesome. The public areas (to beach, pools, breakfast) were extremely convenient to get to. The only negative comment I have concerns the room amenities. There should be a dresser for more drawer space and a few more hooks or racks in bathroom for towels. Other than that it was a fantastic resort that I would highly recommend

Our stay at Chesapeake was absolutely phenomenal. The property itself is stunning—immaculately kept grounds, lush and peaceful, with a sense of tranquility that instantly helps you unwind. Everything was clean and thoughtfully maintained, from the pathways to the landscaping, which truly stood out. The room was comfortable and inviting. The air conditioning kept things perfectly cool, though it was a bit on the louder side during the night. One small detail we noticed was the smoke detector’s green light, which was brighter than expected and occasionally disrupted our sleep, even with the excellent blackout curtains. Still, these are minor notes in an otherwise serene experience. Check-in was smooth and friendly, though for added privacy, I personally prefer when room numbers aren’t spoken aloud. That said, the agent was warm and welcoming. Overall, Chesapeake offered an incredibly restful and beautiful experience. We deeply appreciated the peaceful atmosphere and how cared-for every inch of the property felt. We look forward to returning!

Breakfast was mediocre at best, the coffee not that good, the cook was super angry looking and not courteous AT ALL. The AC in the rooms very annoying-antiquated. We were promised we could stay until 12, then the front desk changes their mind. NOT WORTH THE MONEY. 2 Stars at best.

I had a terrible experience at Chesapeake Beach Resort. I stayed for three nights, but for the first two, I couldn’t sleep because the air conditioning was leaking water directly onto the bed. I reported the problem to the front desk on the first day, and they told me they would send maintenance, but nothing was done. They also said I should call Expedia to resolve the issue, which I did, but no one helped me, and my requests were completely ignored. They finally changed my room on the last night, but the damage was already done. I also requested a refund for the first two nights, and I’m still waiting for the security deposit to be returned. This situation was handled very poorly, and I wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone. It was a stressful and disappointing experience.

Chesapeake Beach Resort is an excellent choice for family vacation or couple’s gate-away. This was our second time staying at the resort. This time we brought our kids and they absolutely loved it here. The exclusiveness, the private beach, water activities, two pools, and courteous resort staff. My family was welcomed warmly by Charlsie. Charlsie made my family feel welcomed and granted my wife’s request and upgraded us to a villa facing the ocean. This trip was my wife’s 40th birthday and Charlsie made it extra special for our family. I want to take this time to thank all the staff of Chesapeake Resort. The front desk staff, the grounds keep, the breakfast crew and their engagements with the kids, and the housekeeping crew. All pleasant staff. Thank you.

The Chesapeake Beach Resort was lovely. It is a small, clean, picturesque resort. We had the beautiful beach area with pool towels and lounge chairs to ourselves. We were surprised and excited about the 2 free hours of either paddle boarding, kayaking, or fishing poles per day. The free breakfast omelette station was delicious. The front desk sells frozen shrimp for fishing. A tour to the sandbar is a must! Unfortunately we booked a different tour before check in, but saw a cheaper tiki boat tour to the sandbar at the hotel. All in all, great stay with nice beach area! Would recommend!

Staff not as friendly as it could be, especially at breakfast. Felt like getting breakfast somewhere else. Also, a lot of empty cans and empty wrappers around the property. Not a big deal but it could be better especially so close to the sea. Obviously people throwing stuff around not great but staff can walk around and clean a bit. Internet was not working well and then towards our stay it wasn't working at all. Internet has to be available and solid especially for people that might need to connect a bit.

Expedia’s pictures don’t do justice to beauty of this property. While the room was small, Walls are thin, could hear noises from neighboring rooms. Bathroom was upgraded. However, vibe of the resort and calmness triumpj over all the petty issues. The entire resort has a wonderful vibe, and the beachfront views are breathtaking. The breakfast was fantastic, and the staff were exceptional. I only wish we could have stayed longer! There are plenty of restaurants with different kinds of cuisines in such a small area.
