Great central place for a vacation. I stayed here 4 weeks. The Manager, Meghan always was friendly and on top of everything, one of the best managers I ever met. I'll probably be back in the future again.

Spring Training and Break

Great place to vacation. It’s a bit dated but is adjacent to a lively Tiki bar with live music. Place was hopping. It is spring break after all. Though most of the clientele is well beyond college age. Pool separates the bar from the hotel. Convenient to the spring training homes of the Twins and Fed Sox.

Great atay

We had such a good time at dolphin key! Meghan at the front desk was friendly and helpful she even helped me pick out a tiki hut t-shirt for my hubby! And at the tiki hut free fresh coffee every morning and good prices and good food with a smile first thing in the morning from Julie and live music every night! Can’t wait to go back again next year!

Had a great stay here

Hotel staff here is fantastic. Tiki Bar on the property was super convenient for dinner on arrival and great breakfast the next morning. They do have live music so just be aware- I think they wrapped up around 9:30 or 10:00 so it didn’t affect sleeping for us. Pool was really nice too. Everything clean and friendly here.

Cape Coral Stay

Nice place, great location. I can’t speak to the inside, courtyard rooms, but the outside rooms are very noisy. Street noise, guest leaving at 6:30 am on Harleys noisy. A microwave in the rooms would be great for reheating leftovers. Staff was very friendly and accommodating.
Paul, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The bar and restaurant that is located on the hotel grounds had good food and terrific live music Thursday through Sunday. I don’t require much when I travel and this met all of my needs. Walking distance to a robust night life
