I love this place, this is the second year we've visited and had a great time. You feel as if your in the Caribbean. The resort is a great place for families, water sports, fishing and the bay is a great place for swimming, especially for young kids. The maximum depth is 7'. If you want a quiet, relaxing place to go, this is the place to go. Hotel is nice and clean.

If you are looking for anything that might have a pulse, this isn't the place to be looking. Restaurant menu very basic - just about ok for one evening's dinning, but not more. Pleased we are only staying one night!

My family stayed at the Key Largo Grande after our first trek to Bahia Honda State Park. We were very impressed by this hotel. I had read several reviews and was a bit hesitant but luckily I followed my instincts and kept my reservation.

The property was beautiful. I especially liked the hammocks in the wooded area. The beach was small compared to the public beaches but I prefer intimate settings off the beaten path. We had a balcony that looked onto the wooded area so we didn't see much of the beach. Next time, I'll have to get a room on a higher floor. The rooms were very comfortable and well furnished. The beds were awesome. One of my relatives remarked that the sleep sofa was the best one she'd ever slept on. I slept very well and had a great shower. At the end of the day, that's what you really want right? A comfortable bed, soft pillows with a great view...

The resort does have a restaurant on the premises although we didn't eat there. My husband said the restaurant was really nice though. Next time, I'll have to try it. We went to this seafood buffet that was supposed to be something special. It was something alright. My family was quite disappointed because we figured with being right there on the water, we should have been able to get great seafood...but I digress....

The pools, rooms and beach were awesome compared to some of the places we saw while we were there. It looks a bit like a motel as there weren't any hallways. That threw us a bit but when we walked into the rooms, it was classic Hilton. Don't let some of these folks deter you from staying here. If you want a great hotel with an uncrowded beach and pool so that you feel like you're the only folks there, stay here. If you want a loud party scene, this aint it (thank God!!). I would highly recommend this hotel to families traveling with children. It's just enough to keep them busy.

Overall we had a good trip. We stayed 5 days.

The good:
Location (quiet but convenient)
Water Activities (Caribbean Water Sports staff were great and reasonable prices)

The bad
Room Maintenance staff did the minimal (make bed and pick up towels, token wipe down)
Noise (walls are paper thin and when the neighbors went in and out of their balcony, it shook our room)
