Banana Bay Resort and Marina - Key West

The hotel was very clean and the room was very sufficient for what we needed. The best part about our room was the balcony that overlooked the pool and marina. We were pleased overall but the only disadvantage about the resort was the location. If we were to return to key west we would definitely look into a hotel that was closer to duval street.

Hotel has nice quiet location on bay but you could be anywhere...not in old town...need car to go anywhere....Major 2 year road construction out front cuts you off from everything...were not working directly in front and we were there on the weekend so noice was not bad but beautiful location, NO TIKI BAR in operation and staff laughed when we asked […] about it, Staff is very friendly and helpful, room furnishings, carpet, bedding newer and comfortable, pool furniture,outside furniture on balcony dated, bathroom vanity, doors are old & not replaced in overall and beatup, a lot of rust on light fixtures and anything metal. Breakfast was nice and 3 hours with plenty of waffles, pastries, juice and coffee. Internet service does not work without a password despite front desk staff saying no password required and on last day another staff person informed us when she saw us struggling with trying to get on. Very nice and quiet with own beach on bay (no swimming in bay) but no children under 16 so peaceful. Read more

Overall, we were very pleased with the hotel, our room and the furnishings. Bathroom could use some updating but room was very large and clean. Nice bar/kitchen area with refrig, microwave, sink and coffee maker. Office personnel very pleasant and helpful. Trolley pickup just across the street. Would definitely stay here again.

Great spot. Perfect for dog lovers. Good prices too.

The street in front of the hotel was under construction. We passed the entrance. The hotel is no where near Mallory Square or Duval Street. The pictures on the website do not look anything like the hotel. I was not satisfied the least bit and would not recommend to anyone.

Nice cute little hotel. Room was a good size. The canopy bed really nice touch although very squeaky. Nice pool and landscaping. Very relaxing. Wouldn't really say it has a beach or anything but still nice. The tiki bar was nice to see by not open during our stay. We didn't see any naked people which was nice. Lol

HOTEL FOR THE MOST PART WAS GREAT... ROOM CABINETS IN NEED OF UPDATE BUT OTHERWISE HAD A GREAT TIME... WOULD STAY AGAIN AND HAVE RECOMMENDED TO FRIENDS ALREADY...

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The hotel and room were great - comfortable, quiet, clean, nice balcony overlooking the pool, comfortable bed, nice places to sit by the water. The only downsides were the distance from town - and the construction out in front was a bit of a hassle. Once we figured out where to park in town ( the lot behind city hall was cheap and convenient and the […] one over by the pier activity also) everything went pretty smoothly. Read more

AS MENTIONED WITH JUST A LITTLE TLC THIS COULD BE A REAL WINNER! THEY HAD ADVERTISED A TIKI BAR IT WAS INOPERABLE,THEY MENTIONED A BEACH BUT IT IS NOT A BEACH WHERE YOU CAN SWIM! OVERALL THE STAFF WAS COURTEOUS AND PLACE WAS CLEAN BUT A LITTLE MORE EFFORT IS NEEDED TO MAKE THIS A FOUR STAR . THE CONSTRUCTION OUT FRONT OF THE HOTEL IS SHEDDING A VERY […] BAD LIGHT WHEN YOU DRIVE UP NOT THE RESORTS FAULT OVERALL VERY NICE Read more

Place needs updated..no tiki bar..no wifi in rooms or pool area morning breakfest needs help ..this place is for iternational people ..for what you pay fore ..you can get better

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Room was awful, wallpaper peeling, shower was awful, hot water would get extremely hot every 10 seconds... Just a poor experience...

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Our room was not very comfortable and needed some fixing. The light and shower were broken. The light switches didn't work. We paid for a room with a king bed, but only got one with a double, maybe a full, I don't know, but it was very small. The room could use a remodel, as it seemed run down.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The suit is clean and comfort, the marina is very beautiful for viewing the sunrise. However, the air condition is noise and the bathwater isn't big enough for us. The price is a little high.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Room was nice, but no wi-fi in room and when taking a shower water went from cold to hot the whole time.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We only had a problem with a college party that went on next door till 1:00 am. The room was otherwise very comfortable.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Pros: We found it to be clean and pleasant. Nice pool area and sandy area on the channel. 40 minute nice walk, 15 minute nice bike ride to Duvall. Cons: We were promised a water front view with a balcony or patio. We got an inside corner room with a view of a canal if you were sitting on the patio. Also, carpet in room is very worn and frayed around […] the door. A little TLC wouldn't hurt. Overall a good choice, price was right. Read more

Construction in front of the building. As for the roomstay the bedroom there were two windows together and each window had a different set of blinds. Both of the night tables we beat up and the tops were nicked up. In the front room the two lamps were the same style but different lamp shades. In the kitchen area the freezer door was rusted at the bottom. […] The photos are very misleading. There is a little beach area and that is a nice asset as well as the complimentary breakfast in the morning. However for what I paid this was way over priced. Would I stay there again NO. Read more

Enjoyed the stay. Room was very attractive. Not new looking but pretty well kept. Hotel grounds area was nice, and particularly liked the outdoor patio with tables and chairs beside the breakfast room where you could eat and enjoy the view.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

the banana bay resort was better then I expected... I would stay there again. even though it is close to a busy road, it is tucked far enough back that it seems secluded from the business that's actually happening. front desk women was wonderful, she was able to change mine and boyfriends room closer to our friends. quite at night, no trouble sleeping. […] pool area was very nice...rooms were comfortable... we spent most of our time out and about, so the banana bay suited us well for our intentions, good price and decent lodging.

the hotel is much older than I expected the rooms were clean but the bathroom was old. overall it was okay but it I wouldn't call it a resort

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The room was lovely and comfortable. The bamboo king size canopy bed was a very nice touch. We had a very nice water view. The downside was the road construction that made it more difficult to get around, but I can't blame hotel for that.

This is a hotel, not a resort, but for Key West it represents a pretty decent value. The lot is a little crowded, and the furnishings are getting a little older, but it's clean, and the price is decent. Would stay again.

I guess the old saying ' You get what you paid for" applies to this hotel. The place really gave me the creeps. The room was a good size and it overlooked the pool and water, which was great. It is in old shape , the mattress and box spring were disgusting. The wallpaper was peeling off the wall in the bathroom, and the room smelled like cigarettes. […] I didn't complain because the price was low, and really didn't have any place else to go. The pool area and the sand appeared to be in decent shape. The breakfast that was offered had a large selection. We couldn't get the tv to work and someone was up in 5 minutes. So I guess I am just used to a nicer hotel. I also wasn't aware that it was an adults only hotel, which is fine with me, except there was a sign when you leave the pool area and go to the beach area, "clothing must be worn" that made me a little nervous, haha Read more

great place ,close to all key west has to offer.cant wait to come back again

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

My husband and I got there and the room was nice, clean, worth coming back again, construction on the roads sucks but other than that...everything was fine.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Rooms great, pool clean and refreshing, beach raked and awesome, construction didn't bother us BUT ....... Why is there a bright light on the building right outside our room window? It was so bright that it was as if we had a night light ( 100w) left on all night, when I called the desk she said it couldn't be helped ! Also the tv had to be turned on […] and off by the button on the set, not the remote, I'm lazy and want to have a sleep button on the remote :) Read more

I love the room, the view and best of all the canopy king size bed. It was a very pleasant stay.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The room smelled terrible when I arrived. The breeze from the ocean allows you to keep the balcony doors open and the smell disappeared. There is major construction in front of the hotel for 2 more years, but it didn't hinder me. Clothing is option by the pool, hence the adults only rule. The wallpaper was peeling off the bathroom walls which shows […] black mold growing. The shower is a little unpredictable with hot and cold water. For the price, it was fine considering other prices closer to downtown. The room was nice and big. It is a waterfront resort, but you can't swim. Read more

Genuine Expedia guest review

I don't pretend to make a two star hotel to be three or four but having to wait two hours for room to be ready and pay full price (179 plus taxes) when surrounding area is under construction is, at least, questionable.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Nice place to stay; appreciate it being pet-friendly. A little taken aback by the clothing optional pool; was not aware of that beforehand, but no big deal. Good continental breakfast choices.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

We chose this hotel because we were looking for something that would take us away from the party atmosphere of downtown Key West, for the night. We also expected that it would have access to the water, as it was shown to have a beach. It turned out to be a little too far away -a $15 taxi ride each way, and the beach was man made with no access to the […] water in front of it -- there was a rock sea wall and the water was very weedy. Still, the setting was very beautiful and tranquil. The room was nice and clean, but dated. The staff was very nice and did cater to our needs. Additionally, this is an "Adult Exclusive" property, something we didn't know until we got there. Read more

We stayed here 1 night. Price was good for the area. Nice location and clean. The room we had did need some cosmetic work...upgrading. The balcony overlooked pool area and it was reallly nice. The staff was really nice and helpful. We would stay here again.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

after reading several good reviews I decided to book this hotel and am glad we did. first it is an adult over 16 hotel which we didn't know, it was out of the hustle and bustle of downtown key west but not too far yet it was peaceful and quiet. for the price it was well worth the money

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

I am sorry to say I would not recommend your motel. The room had a damp wet smell, wallpaper was was coming off the bathroom walls and the TV was broken. The "breakfast" room was also damp and had a bad smell. The young lady that checked us in did not offer any suggestions on how to get to the more active part of town or if there was anyplace worth […] seeing right around the motel. When I made my reservations I was not told the outside bar would not be open. With a lot of hard work it could be a nice place. Read more

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

The Banana Bay was reasonably well maintained, but it is definitely out of date. The paint, tile and furniture are all clearly quite old. I appreciate that it is fairly well maintained, but be forewarned - don't expect anything new, and certainly don't expect a flat screen TV (though you are in Key West, why watch TV?). The pool area is nice, although […] the tiki bar was not open at all the week we were there. Read more

They don't lie when they say its on the water, but it is deceiving. The man made beach in the shade leading up to the breakwall is basically useless. Unless you are allergic to the sun. The location is good if you don't mind a five minute ride to Duvall Street. The shower temperatures are not consistent so you may find yourself frequently surprised […] at the sudden chill or scalding of the water when your neighboring room decides to flush their toilet or wash their hands. The continental breakfast is always fresh and well stocked. This is a great place to stay for the money, if your intention on your trip is to be downtown or at the beach. Read more

Banana Bay Resort & Marina is definitly an older establishment in need of updating and additional maintance. That being said,its location close to downtown KeyWest ,the pleasant surprise of its attached Marina and its reasonably price make it a good budget choice.
