Great Old Florida Charm!

Cute old Florida motel right on the water with it's own private beach. The room was very clean and updated, the grounds are very tropical and well maintained, the staff was super friendly and helpful and the late check in process is very efficient. We will definitely stay here again.

10/10 Exceptional

Our room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The shower was also good. The onsite restaurant is excellent! Unfortunately, the seaweed made the beach area unusable.
Mindy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Property is right on the Atlantic side of the island with beautiful views. And amazing for sunrise viewing. Sunset views are just a couple miles south of the resort. Staff was great and always asked if there was anything we needed. Onsite hot tub and pool were great as well. The onsite restaurant was amazing as well. Highly recommended for a quaint keys vacation
Robert Michael, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Staff was very friendly. Resort was clean and very dog friendly. Perfect for nice quiet getaway with view of the ocean right in front of the room.
Regina, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I absolutely loved our stay at Rainbow Bend Resort! Our room was super cute with an incredible ocean view. The night sky was breathtaking, Mornings were just as beautiful with serene, calming views. The room was very clean and cozy (yes, the walls are a bit thin, but it didn’t take away from the experience). What really stood out was their customer service truly incomparable. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful.
