What guests think

At Reefhouse Resort and Marina, travelers highlight bayside views, sunsets, and the convenience of on-site amenities like the pool, small private beach, watersports, marina, and restaurants, making it an easy, family-friendly place to relax without leaving the property.

Many find rooms spacious and comfortable with balconies and sunset views, while others note dated elements, weak shower pressure, noise from the pool or roadway, and maintenance problems like sticky doors or running toilets. Cleanliness is generally strong, but some guests report lapses around the hot tub or pool and occasional room issues, including a few pest concerns. Dining is widely considered tasty and convenient, though prices can feel high, menus limited, and service slow at busy times. Expect a scenic, activity-rich stay with a lively family atmosphere.

Loved this place! Lots to do - beach volleyball, basketball, cornhole, pool table, ping pong, etc - along with a nice swimming pool, beach areas, jet skis and parasailing available plus boat trips from their marina. Tons to do, good food in their restaurant, plenty of parking, etc. No need to leave really. Nice staff as well.

A very nice property, but the upkeep of the pool and hot tub is poor. The hot tub water level was not high enough to go through the skimmer. The water was green and there was mold growing under the ledge surrounding it. People didn't seem to notice though and were using it. We talked to the manager about it and it was closed for about an hour only to be opened again in about an hour, but still in poor condition. There was a lot of oil from sun lotion on the pool water and it was questionable how safe the water quality was. Our room was nice, but not updated. The door was in poor condition and did not close well. The balcony is a real plus. The "private beach" is very small and the water sports there made for frequent noise and exhaust fumes. We finally found a better area to the east of the restaurant where it was nicer and had the outdoor fire to sit by at night. I've seen too many places that look so wonderful when you see the pictures online, but they often aren't as nice as they look. What it really comes down to is would we come back to stay here? The answer is that we would not. It was expensive not worth what we paid.

We are frequent visitors to the Keys, but this was our first time staying at The Reef. This was by far our favorite place to stay. The property was very clean and well maintained. Also the view from our room was amazing. We enjoyed the small beach and on site restaurants. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Special kudos to Carlos at the beach bar for making us the best Mai Tai’s and to Tia at Gus’s for her exceptional service. We will definitely be back 😊

I travel to many different places and have gotten bedbug bites in the past from various hotel experiences. My main priority when booking hotels is cleanliness. Well, I got bedbug bites for the second time out of more than 30 different hotel stays, not to mention that the room had no hair dryer. The door needed to be fixed. The swimming pool was fine, but the hot tub was very dirty, with dead skin floating in it. The staff was nice, and room service was good.

We woke up after night one covered in bites. Discovered a bed bug, caught it and brought it to the front desk. Management "lost" the bug and claimed that the inspectors found no evidence. We have ample photographic evidence. Additionally, the property is run down, moldy and in dire need of a facelift. This was not the resort experience we expected for the nightly rate. I recommend staying somewhere else.

We booked for two nights and left the next day after check in, simply because the bathroom of our room was really dirty to shower in. Also, we saw what seemed to look like blood stains in one of the couch pillows. Overall the resort is okay, but they definitely need to invest in cleanliness .

Loved this place. Our room was on the top, 4th floor, so our partial bay view was amazing. If we were the 1st floor it would’ve been mostly blocked by the one restaurant. Private beach and pool were amazing. Another area had games, volleyball and hammocks that were a fun option for walking around. Water sports bookable on sight which was a convenient option. Rooms were cleaned daily which helps with all the sand. Drink and food service and towels were always available. It wasn’t very busy when we went. My guess is the pool and parking would be very crowded if the hotel was fully booked.

Need better restaurants - overall nice feel fairly ok work out room - tiki pool bar nice - lots and lots of kids around pool - if that’s what u want then this is place for you- we have 4 and are empty nesters just this year and so would have liked an adult pool option

Where do I start? 1. Rooms have no sound insulation. You hear every word from people in room next door, above or from people sitting on their balconies or walking the halway-and I mean every word. Have not experienced anything like it in well over 30 years of traveling. Took videos of noise kevel at 5:30 am. 2. No charm. The main bar is fully enclosed-- in the Keys!!!. Everything is very dated 3. This seems completely overpriced . At that price level, I have experienced much better in the Key's

We had a wonderful stay at the Reefhouse. The checkin and checkout process was super easy and quick. We had a great time relaxing on the beach with a tasty drink. It's walking distance to Sundowners and Big Chill where there is great food, live music and fun. I took away a star for the lack of water pressure in the shower. At least for our room, the shower water pressure was very weak which makes shower not as enjoyable. I hope they can fix it soon.

The hotel definitely has that classic, old-Florida Keys charm, which I understand is part of the concept and appeal. That said, I think some of the facilities could be improved while still keeping the same “style.” The beds, for example, were not the most comfortable. On the positive side, the location is fantastic — with its own private beach and beautiful views, it really makes the stay worthwhile. The food was good, and while the service was standard (nothing exceptional), it was overall a pleasant experience. I also really appreciate that the hotel is welcoming to kids, which makes it a nice option for families. For a weekend getaway, I would definitely recommend this place.

The resort is lovely and room was very nice. It seems like they are transitioning so there are things in the room that are old but other amenities that look updated. For example, bathroom shower doors look from the eighties but the floor and shower tiles have been updated. The room we had a running toilet so the door needed to be closed so that we could sleep. The main door to the room would stick since it looked like they painted over the paint but never stripped the old paint prior to repainting it. Opening the door took a bit of man power to get in and out of the room. The biggest disappointment was the bed mattress. It was either old or they purchased an extra extra soft mattress. It was like sleeping in a hole. It was so bad I left the place with a sore back and stiff neck. Nonetheless, the place had a great view, two restaurants, and felt clean (for the most part). Staff was great and helpful. Not sure if I’d go back again because of the bed but if that was addressed, I would definitely consider it again.

Upon check-in we were charged more for the resort fee than was stated in the Hotels.com booking. It wasn't a huge amount, but I questioned it and they gave me "Expedia got it wrong" like I'm just supposed to accept that I'm paying more than the agreed upon and expected "resort fee." Then they told me that they usually have complimentary refreshments in the lobby, but were out. The WiFi didn't work well, so was unable to use the Peloton bike in the fitness area, and we were given three different closing times for the pool. At one point, a guard of some sort kept coming by about every 15 minutes about an hour before the pool was to close to remind us. Mostly I don't recommend due to the bait and switch on the price, though.

We have stayed at many Opal resorts. On this trip alone this was the third Opal resort and by far the least accommodating. At check- in there was no one to assist with luggage or even tell us where to locate a trolley to put our suitcases on to go to our room. No one at the check-in desk gave us an overview of the resort or told us what was available. No one smiled, said good morning, good afternoon or good evening. Staff was hard to find. Considering the cost of our room this was a very negative experience for us.

The only thing I did not like was that I was told we had free breakfast when checking out after 5 days. My girlfriend went to the lobby and asked what all was included with our stay and breakfast was not mentioned. When checking out there was a very nice girl that told me about breakfast which kinda sucked because it would if been so helpful to get breakfast for my girlfriend with that much convenience. She needs to take her morning medication with food so I had to get food delivered every morning. Other than that, the resort was very safe. The whole key largo area was amazing and when ever we had some type of an issue the staff responded rigth away. We even had an issue with the food at the restaurant and the manager made us another plate! We went snorkeling, jet skiing and hit the bar. Amazing time!

There were 2 people working on Sunday later that afternoon, and the place was empty. Meanwhile, at the pool side bar that day there was one person trying to handle a lot of people. I even mentioned to the bartender at Breezers that the guy at the pool bar could use some help. The food is ok, definitely did not meet the description as far as "chef inspired" quality. Overall, the property is very clean, and the entire staff are very friendly. I would stay here again.
