The condo was beautiful and was everything and more for our vacation. Everyone was so friendly that lived in the condo and the host was fantastic to say the least about them.

Outdated and under remodeling but my room was Clean comfortable and friendly. The beach, beach bar and rolling smoke are fantastic. I look forward to going back when the construction is over. The kitchenette was a must have for my grandkids in the morning. I sure hope they don’t get rid of it.
Simple hotel, not fancy, even though it is in need of repair it was perfect for my family of 11. We reserved 4 rooms. Very clean, nice and comfortable beds. Very affordable, the beach was perfect, and the ferry was very reliable.

Room was clean, the young lady with the multicolored glasses was extremely nice!! The hotel is outdated but clean. The only issue is that I had to wait for the room I actually paid for...but they made an effort. Also the AC was leaking in the room but it was on my last day, so I was not really bothered. Yes I would return, knowing what to expect. The hotel has a nice beach and tasty wings.
Fun place to stay! Great BBQ and drinks and the view is stunning!

1.housekeeping needs to be done daily instead of every other day.it’s the beach and who wants sand in their bed. Biggest gripe also is beach towels. There were never any clean ones. We went 4 days with the same towel. On fifth day early that morning I was requesting clean beach towels and they just kept saying they are at the laundry. Finally they brought us towels after dark. Why in the world would it take 5 days to get clean towels?
2. Stairwell behind the bar that takes you to 3 rd floor needs lights working. It was completely dark and it is a trip/ fall hazard. They also need to be clean daily.
3. This place has potential to be a 5 star resort if they would just put more work ethic into the place. Love the island and the views from the rooms are amazing.

Amazing location. Island views. Really nice beach.
Amazing location. Really nice beach. Careful on your balcony. Our handrail was in dangerous condition. Staff was friendly.
T treated my family to a short weekend stay at the Kay and it was lovely. The beach was beautiful and the bar alive with guest. The room was spacious enough to enjoy the beach weekend and had the basic essentials for our short stay. However, the old-empty water fountain & pool outside were eye sores, obstructing out view of the beach. But overall the beach was beautiful and for a short family stay the price was not too bad.
This property is perfect for people who Love
The beach! The beach is right out the door!
View out of hotel room is amazing.
If you like fancy and no beach then I would try
Elsewhere.

Being on the cay was very unique. Property could use some love but friendly staff made up for that. Water taxi was always fast and easy. Enjoyed our stay
The view from the room was the best part, waking up and hearing the water was mesmerizing. This place could use some updating but the accommodations were doable for 1 night.
