The hype
Guests love the tropical grounds and sunset rituals but consistently groan about the 'nickel and diming' fees and occasional service lapses.
Playa Largo Resort & Spa, Autograph Collection
$450-900 / öö
Broneeri, kui You want a full-service Florida Keys resort bubble where you can sip cocktails in a floating cabana while your kids tire themselves out at the pool.
Miks inimesed seda armastävad
- The 'Eventide' sunset celebration where guests burn their worries on floating paper
- The Hammocks: secluded bungalow-style villas that feel like a separate hotel
- Water Tables at Sol by the Sea—dining literally ankle-deep in the bay
Kiire kokkuvõte: It’s a beautiful, bustling factory of relaxation that charges five-star prices for a four-star experience that occasionally feels a bit mass-produced.
Vaadanud @ettevi_wanderlust: I surprised my partner with this water table dinner and it was unforgettable. Sipping cocktails with our feet in the ocean while watching the Islamorada sunset was the ultimate romantic experience. Definitely the highlight of our stay at Playa Largo.

- Maintenance: The property is aging slightly; expect occasional chipped paint or a slow drain.
- Linens & towels: Standard Marriott quality—clean and crisp, but not ultra-luxury plush.
- Odors & scents: Lobby has a strong signature scent; some lower-floor rooms have a faint damp/musty smell.

Enne broneerimist
Head teada
- The water is bay-side, meaning it's calm and shallow—great for paddleboarding, bad for surfing.
- Resort fee includes bikes, but they are first-come, first-served and go fast.
- You can book a 'Water Table' at Sol by the Sea to eat dinner while standing in the water (book weeks in advance).
Mida kaasa võtta
- Water shoes (the bay bottom can be seagrass-y)
- Bug spray (no-see-ums are real in the Keys at sunset)
- Insulated tumbler (drinks melt fast in the humidity)

Ruumi soovnimerja nõid – kopeeri ja kleebi
“I'd love a room on a higher floor, away from the elevator and main pool noise. If available, a Bay View that isn't directly above the bar would be ideal. Please ensure the room has been recently aired out.”
