Coconut Cay Resort & Marina is praised for its budget-friendly location in Marathon, excellent guest rooms with comfortable beds, and a wealth of complimentary water sports equipment. While the general consensus is highly positive, a few recent reviewers noted occurrences of 'funky smells' and minor maintenance issues, particularly regarding dead bolts.

Hidden gem location with peaceful canal views and manatee sightingsGenerous complimentary amenities (kayaks, paddleboards, bikes, keurig)Superior cleanliness and comfort of guest rooms with new linensFriendly and responsive staff that accommodates requests quicklyGreat mid-island access for exploring both Key West and Key Largo

Coconut Cay is a nice small older motel that serves Marathon, Fl. While not cheap, it is less expensive than other hotels/motels in Marathon. The rooms are spotless and well maintained. The bed was excellent. Access to the interior courtyard and pool was through a sliding door; there were chairs and a small table on a small patio at each room. Furniture is a bit dated, but perfectly fine. The staff was very helpful and professional. We had a sticky lock on the door and asked for a repair, which occurred within 10 minutes of our request. Coconut Cay provides customers access to kayaks, paddleboards and bicycles at no additional cost - a real rarity for the the Keys. I recommend it for budget conscious travelers.

Overall Coconut Cay is an excellent choice for someone wishing to stay in the Keys without the bustle of Key West while maintaining all the amenities. Stayed here with a family member as we were spearfishing in the area. Room was very clean and well put together aesthetically. Bathrooms were just what we needed; sink shower and fan. Beds were extremely comfortable with extra pillows. Rooms were cleaned daily, had new TVs and we even had a mini-fridge for cold drinks. Parking was a little bit of a challenge but not a problem. Canal in the back is a nice place to sit during sunset and smoke a cigar or eat a small lunch. Publix is close by and they just built a huge new SurfSide store. Key West is less than an hour away. Overall location is excellent, we were also upgraded at no cost. Would 100% stay here again. A no-frills, clean and safe hotel to stay at when in the Keys without spending $$$$ on a room. They also have onsite laundry for $5! Also a note, regarding the other reviews, there was No “sewage smell” anywhere on the property. We stayed there for a week and all we could smell was the salty air from the Keys. And the airport, yes, there is an airport. Not a big deal. If you have a problem with 2-3 TINY planes flying over for 10-30 seconds I suggest to stay at the Casa Marina for $1,400 a night.

Location, Location, Location! Stayed at Coconut Cay for 4 nights had a good experience. The staff were friendly and the room was spacious and clean. The only issue was I booked through Expedia and on Expedia it showed that the room I chose had a canal view when it really didn't. It was no big deal but if you are booking through a third party I suggest going on to the Coconut Cay website to check out what your room looks like and where it is located on the property. The hotel is on the Overseas Highway US1 so finding it is no problem. There plenty of free parking, just make sure you register your car and get a parking permit to hang from your mirror of leave on the dash. Location, location, location! If you want to have access to all the Keys Coconut Cay is pretty much right in the middle. Marathon is my favorite key for that reason. You are close to Bahia Honda beach and only about an hour away from Key West to the south and about an hour and 15 minutes away from Key Largo to the north. There are also many great places to visit close to the hotel. If you need coffee and breakfast Dunkin donuts is across the street. Also a few gas stations and mini markets are minutes away. In the canal located in the back of the building we saw a few Manatees and many pelicans. You could also go fishing there as well as many other spots near by. There is also a boat ramp on the property for small boats and kayaks for those wishing to go kayaking. If you have a boat on a trailer you could tie your boat on the dock. Our room looks like it was newly renovated, it was clean, it has a mini refrigerator with a freezer, a coffee maker a big screen smart televisions which was great because we used it to watch Netflix. Our room had a porch in the front with two big cottage chairs and a table, made it great for having drinks outside and great for sitting outside to have a cigarette for those who smoke. Smoking is not allowed in the rooms which is great. Also if you prefer not to use AC the windows open all the way to create a nice breeze in the room. The bed and pillows were comfortable and clean. Overall had a great experience and would definitely stay again.

It is a wonderful place and is located in a city thats nearer to the Key West, but not as expensive. Amazing restaurants and parks around. The room's AC placement felt quite distant from the bed. I think it could be inconvenient during warmer days but I was visiting during Christmas so did not have as much an issue. It is most importantly budget friendly, with free bikes and kayaks that we can use. The staff are very friendly and I would like to specially mention and appreciate Jocelyn Rochon for her support. She was so friendly, and accommodated every small need we had. Me Andy wife really had a great time here.

The staff were very friendly and helpful, and the room was spacious. We were pleasantly surprised with a complimentary room upgrade. There is a pond behind the property where you can see wildlife such as manatees, which creates a very relaxing atmosphere. The common areas are well maintained and include lounge chairs for guests to enjoy. Overall, the price is very reasonable and offers great value for money.

In the hub of Marathon, this little gem gives you everything you need at an affordable rate. That's astonishing for the Florida Keys. The rooms are clean, well attended and the staff is amazingand incredibly accommodating remember it's a local place, there are sometimes issues with small things but don't forget about the big things. The coffee is amazing in the lobby but you also have a Keurig in the room. The beds are amazing, pillows are extra comfy And the towels are actually bath towels lol. The pool is clean but again it's about location, location, location. Keep in mind there is an airfield right next door, if you don't enjoy aviation, this might not be the place for you and if you need ground floor you should ask because some units are upstairs. It's hard to find affordable places to stay anymore in the Keys. I am a local and really appreciate the opportunity to have a place I can get away to nearby. Thank you again to Anastasia the front desk clerk. She is friendly and attentive and so was everyone else.

Absolutely loved this place! We had a family of 8. We got 2 rooms on the bottom of the 2 story buildings. Everything was great! Room large everyone had enough space. Loved the bikes, kayaks, pool & being right on the water. Coffee was fresh and hot every morning. Office staff was very nice and helpful. Highly recommend!

I stayed at Coconut Cay Resort & Marina for a week! Drove from MA to here and was able to do an early check in which was great. The communication was five stars from check in and all throughout my stay- housekeeping was available to clean the room daily and the room was very throughly cleaned before and during my stay! All staff at front desk were kind and accommodating. The location of this resort was also great and easily accessible. Was able to adventure to Key west within 45 min- an hour! Bed was comfortable and a.c was cold! I will definitely be back!

I feel that this hotel was a hidden gem. It was very quiet, despite being near the road. I loved the free bicycles and kayaks. I was thrilled by the roosters visiting the patio every morning! The bed was comfy, the shower was toasty warm, and the room had nice amenities(microwave, coffee maker, mini fridge). While there's no breakfast, there are several restaurants extremely close by that you can walk to. The free coffee in the office was very tasty, and the desk staff was friendly. The pool was clean and the water was warm. I will definitely come back when I visit the Keys again.

We were on a road trip from NJ and needed a place to stay last minute and found Coconut Cay resort and Marina. The receptionist at the front desk stayed late to allow us to check in after hours and was back 1st thing in the morning to greet us with a smile for our morning coffee. The staff did a great job keeping the property clean and helping us with the complementary paddle boards. They have a pool, gas and charcoal grill, paddle boards, bikes and kayaks all free to use with your stay. We look forward to staying here again on our next trip to the Keys!
