Great spot. Perfect for dog lovers. Good prices too.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
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. LolGenuine Hotels.com guest review
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 betterGenuine 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
"Nice place but not what we were told."
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 moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Get whatcha pay for"
Property was nice considering the money savings. Pool and cabana were desolate...wish the pool was heated, it was too cold to use.Genuine Expedia guest review
"ok if not spending too much time in the hotel"
Room smelled like a wet dog. Location was convenient and price was good. Hotel staff was nice. There is no real beach even when they have water front.Genuine Expedia guest review

"Good Value"
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.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Older resort with a fresh coat of paint"
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 moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"It Would Take So Little to Make It Better!"
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 moreGenuine Expedia guest review
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.

"Good value for price and location"
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.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Not the best, Not the worse!"
At first glance, the room was very lovely. However, looks can be deceiving! The hot/cold water faucets were put on backwards so hot meant cold and cold meant hot. I discovered a roach crawling near the refrigerator. Ugh! The bed sheet did not quite fit on the mattress, and the boxspring cover was ripped. Also, our phone did not work and the maintenance […] had to come and swap it out. They did not offer WiFi except in the main lobby, which was a bit of inconvenience. The grounds were nice. I really enjoyed the beach setting in the back. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"awesome people"
Thr hotel was nice it was clean which is important but the people at the front desk were amazing. Really made my trip easier and possible booking everything for meGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Time for some work"
The hotel is nice overall. Location is good. 2 Miles from Duval St. just far enough to be with the local shopping. So you don't have to pay top dollar for everything. $10 cab ride to the action. A great bagel place in walking distance for good breakfast and good lunch sandwiches at local prices. Goldmins I think it is called. Back to the hotel. Needs […] to have so upgrading done to the rooms. Bathrooms have wallpaper coming of the walls and needs to be fixed.. I have stayed 3 times in the past 4 years still the same wallpaper still the same problem. I like the place just hope they see it is time for some work in the rooms..

"Grounds and pool beautiful, rooms need updating"
The area has road construction right now that will be lasting for nearly 2 years that made getting to this hotel a nightmare. The office was hard to find once there because it is not connected to the building. The room was clean but needs updating. Bathroom very dated, had to buy allen wrench to tighten lock screws on room door because maintenance never […] responded. The pool is gorgeous with a jacuzzi and a private beach area and gazebo. Nude sunbathing at the pool if desired since it is very very private. But for the price it is a good value as other hotels in this area with less amenities are more than 30-50% more $$. There was an adequate continental breakfast and a small fitness room. WiFI is only available near the pool or in the continental breakfast room since they only have simple wireless router. Overall for the price we would stay there again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Inexpensive Hotel for Singles/Younger Fit Crowd."
Hotel was very reasonably priced, so if you're not into all the bells and whistles it's an ok stay. There is some exercise equipment available and pool is small but clean. Hotel is about a $15 cab ride one way to Duvall Street and that is where the majority of the action is, so plan on approx $30 extra expense per day for transportation costs. It was […] too far to us to walk and definitely would not make that walk at night. A younger couple may be ok with this. Construction on main road in front of hotel also made cabs more expensive. Rooms are not updated but were basically clean. Housekeeping was prompt in making the beds and changing out towels, but bathroom was not cleaned daily. Rooms have sofa and 2 chairs, small fridges and microwaves and single cup coffee makers which were all nice amenities. Also had a separate sink in the main area so did not need to get water from bathroom area and had nice counter and mirror space to help multiple persons to get ready at the same time if time is short. Mattress on bed was ok - but became more uncomfortable to sleep on as the week went on. It is an adult only hotel, and that was great. Not a lot of kids running around - very quiet/peaceful place.

"Road Construction Zone"
Bed and television nice and up to date. Rest of the furnishings a hodge-podge collection. Peeling wallpaper (and black mold) in bathroom. Plumbing hooked up backwards (hot is cold and cold is hot) and leaking faucet on wet bar. Quiet location and spacious room.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Okay hotel for price, a little older hotel but not"
Slidding glass door the lock was broken and the door could not lock, but there was a bar available. Grounds could use some care, it's an older hotel but not bad for the price paid.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Not bad but nothing great either"
The room was comfortable but quite run down. Wallpaper tearing off the wall in the bathroom. Housekeeping changed the sheets and towel but never vacuumed the room. Left empty beer bottles on the table. Took 4 days to get a Blow dryer that worked. Wife wasn't to pleased with that. Was told originally that they didn't have a spare and that was that. Location […] wasn't too bad but Roosevelt is still all tore up. Not the Hotels fault though. Price wasn't too bad and may stay there again. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Banana Bay not quite what we expected"
We expected a little nicer place than we found at Banana Bay. It is an older hotel and needs updating. The wallpaper was torn in our bathroom. The room was clean. The breakfast offered a lot of carbs and the only protein source was milk. It is an all adult hotel - primarily for young adults. We had a balcony with a pool view which was nice with a tropical […] feel from the landscaping. The beach is located on the other side of the island. There was road construction which made it a little harder to get in and out of the hotel which was not the fault of the hotel. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Be careful of what you are expecting"
We arrived early to the hotel and they found a room for us, very nice. Got to the room and it hadn't been cleaned yet. Since we were just dropping off bags and heading to town for lunch any ways, we just told them to have it clean for when we got back. Can live with that. They advertise a poolside tiki bar. they closed it down. Bummer. The only wi-fi […] available is in the office, as far as way from our room as possible. So we never used it. They pool and grounds are not bad, they keep them kept up pretty well. The whole place is a little dated and could use a remodel, but it isn't in bad shape. One thing they do not advertise, that I found, is that the pool is clothing optional. We did have a few ladies take advantage of this to our dismay. We had a barking dog in the room next to us. One day we got back around 4:30, going to shower and get ready for the night and our room hadn't been cleaned yet. So we ahd to track down the housekeeper to get some towels. Oh and since the tiki is not open, pool towels have to be obtained from front desk, no where near the pool. The overall experience was ok, but we will never consider staying there again.

"Clean"
The room was beautiful The view not so much. There isn't a restaurant near by.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
Hotel was a little run down. Could not get wi-fi in our room. Called and was told to go out on patio. It didn't work out there either. Got in bed and smoke alarm started going off randomly for no reason. Called to get help with it and security guy came and basically did nothing and blamed us for smoking which we weren't. So we took it off the wall. […] Other than that not a bad place. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"It was ok."
The quality of the hotel service was very good. Everyone was willing to help and were very nice when approached. The rooms were very clean and very comfortable to be in when we weren't outside by the pool or by the water. The things that we didn't enjoy were the construction in the front of the hotel which made it difficult to get in and out of the […] hotel, the mention of a beach at the hotel (which was only rocks with the view of the water), and the surrounding neighborhood appeared neglected. We didn't like the fact that in order to have access to the wireless network one had to be at the main office in order to use it. Other than the things mentioned above we enjoyed ourselves very much at this resort. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"high potential but poor execution"
The place is really nice but it is not being taken care of. The Tiki bar was closed which also meant that towels at the great pool did not exist. Regular bug spraying would have made sitting long the shore with its beautiful view tolerable. The breakfast room needed a whitewash. And an offering of fruit and/or yogurt was needed. Only grain items were […] offered. The wallpaper in our bathroom was missing in big chunks and some was crumbling along with the wall behind it. Though the bathroom was clean and nicely provided for. The carpet was a "no touch" item. It should have been replaced years ago. Yuck. The refrigerator would do nothing but freeze everything that was put into it. We had to ask for more pillows (no extras in room) and for extra towels... which continued to dwindle was the week wore on. The construction on the road in front of the place made it difficult to get it. But in spite of all of these fixable items, the place is in a great spot with a wonderful waterfront view with a tropical village feel. The room was large with beautiful bed and spaciously laid out with a great balcony overlooking the pool and the bay. A little TLC would turn this place into a gem.

"Not a family hotel"
Bathroom needed serious renovation. Staff was not friendly. A few palmetto bugs, but I guess that should be expected in the Keys. Overall fair at bestGenuine Expedia guest review
"Stay here only if you want a cheap place"
Hotel picture looks great from the pool view. Beware the code words (for all hotels in Key West): "Waterfront", "Sunning Beach". There are NO beach front hotels in Key West and there are NO beaches in Key West. The nearest acceptable nice beach is 32 miles north at Bahai-Honda. As for the hotel, the lousy "Continental" Breakfast was carb-heavy, no other […] option. The "Breakfast/Break/Internet" room door was not operational the entire week I was there. Internet was only available sitting outside in the heat on the deck, or walking up to the lobby. It also went down the last day. The pool was inexplicably HEATED (92+) so it was not refreshing. Only stay here if you want a cheap home base and like to do things elsewhere during the day. Key West is geared toward water activities like boating, sailing, etc. Not for beach people.

"too expensive for the services provided"
Room was not ready until after 3 when checkin was 3. A/C in first Erin was broken and had to move rooms. Bed was hard as a rock. Not worth what I paid for the room even during off season.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great little place"
Staff was great especially Violet, Jonathan and James... except for some that did not speak english but they smile at u. hotel was great because it is within a mile away from everything: Beach was close by, convenient stores and fast food places, cinema, gasoline station, airport...close by everything. Breakfast can save you money by having to eat there […] for free... there's a pool could use some cleaning.. great view while u sun bathe... they also have a gym which we did not get to use just because we didnt have the time... could use Wifi in each room. had a coffee maker, microwave and a small fridge which was so awesome because you can buy grocery at walgreens or Publix which was really close by... ask one of the staff for someone who they know that you can rent a bike or a moped... moped is the best way to go... easy to find parking anywhere, fast, and does not need that much gas... three bucks would do it for the entire week... so cool to travel with it as well... overall i would recommend Banana Bay Resort to anyone... just ask the staff to put in a room with a pool view.. we stayed upstairs... once you are there and unpacked all your stuff you would be lazy to move... bathroom needs some fixing... wall paper peeling off... so make sure to ask before hand to be put in a room with a pool view... would make a big difference in your stay... enough said we got our monies worth... good price...

"Pictures are misleading"
The hotel condition, location and price were fair.You have to drive to Duval. Their beach is tiny and not really for swimming. The jacuzzi had broken jets, the pool umbrellas were broken. The overall condition of the hotel was fair. The room where they served breakfast was old and mildewy.The room was ok. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone because […] there are other name brand hotels in the area for the same price and in better condition. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"More kids than a few"
I was quite surprised to see some pre adolescents and teenagers going though the place And there seemed to be lots of confusion about the clothing optional policy. The proximity to Duvall St.was not as far as I thought that it would be. After taking a $12 taxi the first few days I decided to walk and it took me only about 35 minutes. Plenty of time […] to work up a thirst and take in the architecture. The gym and breakfast room were flooded and musty, but I only went for coffee anyway. Wifi in the rooms would have been great when the weather was not good Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
this hotel advertises itself as clothing optional.... thus the reason for my booking. while the signs were still posted around the pool and beach areas ... so were several children. i was mislead and not happy about it. the hotel is a good distance from town and caused me to use taxi service several times only because i chose to stay at a clothing optional […] hotel.

"Overall Okay... Not worth of Price."
I stayed hotel for 1 night. Hotel is having old building. Cleanness and pool facility was good. But bay and marina is of no use as all chairs were dirty near beach side.
