Clean grounds with beautiful winding tropical garden paths leading to cottages, tiki hut with live music in the evening, and a taco truck with authentic Mexican fare welcomed us. Friendly staff and clean, well-maintained grounds. A bonus for us was a resident cat. It felt like home.

Beautiful, quiet, secluded cottages. Very comfortable and clean. Close to everything, just off the main road. The only reason for a 4 rating instead of 5 was that we could never catch anyone at the Tiki Bar or catch the food truck open. Was not that big of a deal for us as we were there for relaxation but drinks at the tiki hut would have been fun one of the nights. I would still HIGHLY recommend this gorgeous property!

The tiki was never open for service. The food truck never opened for service. The beach area was not a swimming area, looked like a dumping ground. The cottage was nice and the air conditioning worked awesomely. If you are looking for just a place to sleep this is not bad.

Tropical Cottages is everything you dreamed a stay in the keys would be. We stayed in cottage 3, with the two queen beds. It was adorable. We were both impressed with how spacious the room felt, even with the adorable little kitchenette they built in to the space. The room was clean and well taken care of. You can feel the pride of ownership radiating through the space. Will definitely be staying here again when I come back to the keys.
