A great find just minutes from Mount Dora. They have three buildings and we stayed in the furthest building from the main building. It was different but we got used to it. We had a balcony and a nice view of the lake. There was breakfast every day. The grounds are very nice. The only ding would be the pool. It needed vacuuming and I asked about that at the front desk, but it wasn’t done during our stay. The hotel is convenient to several restaurants, a nice park, a boardwalk of sorts along the lake, and community that is picturesque. If we ever come back to this area, we would most definitely stay here again

The room was comfortable and small refrigerator with coffee maker convenient. However, we were unaware that our room was in the building across the street from the main hotel. This meant that in pouring rain, we had to go outside to the main building for breakfast, which was good, BTY.

One night stay was ok. This is an older hotel but in a great location. The room has noticeably worn furnishings. Outlets do not hold charging cords well and aren’t conveniently located. The bed was comfortable and there was a really nice view of the lake. Staff were very nice.

Weather was beautiful and room view was amazing. The mornings and afternoons were perfect and pool area was great. Big pool and had it all to ourselves. My main complaint is that the night life and VERY LOUD music from the bar below us (we were right above a bar) didnt even think about how loud it might be at night. Couldn't hardly sleep the second night (Friday) and performer didnt stop playing until late night. Then the next night (Saturday) the bar, Dog House, which part of the hotel played music SO LOUD OUTSIDE and didnt stop till 2AM. Loved the room and it was clean and the view was incredible worst part was the extremely loud party scene at night.

There was a bar at the location. The music was extremely loud very late at night. It made it rough to get to sleep. We had early times to get up so that's the only thing I wasn't pleased with. And the little bugs everywhere.

I thought it was nice to have restaurants, bars & a coffee shop on the ground floor of the building. We had a beautiful view of Lake Dora from our balcony and enjoyed live music from The Dog House that evening. I did have concern as to when the band would stop. They stopped at 10:00-10:30pm which I thought was very acceptable; especially on a Saturday night.
Danni at the front desk was just wonderful! She was very polite, friendly and informative about the area.

everything was great for all the rooms we had. However it would have been nice if we were all in the same building. Three in one and two in the other. I booked this like 9 months ago it was for 5 groups to come down to attend my sons wedding. It did work out great tho. The only problem was our room was above the Dog House and the noise was unreal til after two in the morning. The front desk switched us first thing in the morning to the complete other end. They were very accommodating

We went to our first hotel room the AC was out, so they moved us to another room. The AC was also out. Luckily, we the night was halfway cool we open the balcony door. Staff were very nice, we have stayed at this hotel multiple times. We’re always satisfied. Hopefully this is a one time situation.

The room is located across the street from the lobby and you enter the elevator at the back of the building next to a bar. Not very safe for a woman traveling alone. It’s also not convenient to have breakfast when it’s across the street. The housekeeper tried entering the room without knocking - thank God the safety lock was on. The coffee pot was disgusting and there was something hard and crunchy on my sheets. Parking was also an issue. I had to park quite a ways away and haul my luggage across the street. Definitely not a good experience at all!

Second time staying there..absolutely love it!

Key West Resort is very nice property in a great location. The only drawback this property has is that the rooms are located in three separate buildings that make the check in process less than convenient. When we arrived we took our bags out of the car and went to the lobby to check in only to find out that our room was in another building and that required us to put ours bags back in the car and drive to the other building.

The room we received was dirty. There was hair all over the towels and bedding. The doors had streaks running down them. The rooms were old and outdated and smelled musty. For the price you would expect better services.

We really enjoyed our stay. We were in building 1 room 201 which is a corner king unit. The room was very spacious even in the bathroom. It had quite a large closet area and the room did include a blow dryer, iron with board, microwave, and small fridge. Bldgs 1 and 2 are across the street from the office, breakfast area, and pool but it was not inconvenient at all. We had a great seat on our balcony for the live music on Saturday night. There is a lot of good restaurants and a fishing dock all right there at the property. The resort is in the entertainment district so there is music playing most evenings but other than the special event on Ruby St., you really aren’t disturbed by the music while inside the room. We can’t wait to return again soon perhaps in the summer!

Jana in the office was super sweet and so helpful but the beds were HORRIBLE, noise was seriously terrible, not enjoyable. The only positive was the lake view.

Our stay was disappointing. The photos on their website looked much better than the actual room. The hotel is in need of a good cleaning, painting and repair.
The hotel building is good quality, but it has been poorly maintained. The view of the lake from the balcony is fantastic!

Location is great. Many activities going on this evening - corn hole, bingo, volley ball. Looking forward to using the pool in the morning.

It could be a very nice place to stay. My issues were: I am a 73 years old woman, I was put in BLDG 2, had to park across the street from the building, walk behind the building and enter an unlocked screen door to reach the elevator, not safe or convenient. My sliding door to the balcony did not lock, discovered after returning from dinner. TV volume not adjustable, remote didn't work, super nice desk lady (Ivy I believe) came over to the room took the batteries out and put them back in, volume still not adjustable but remote appeared to work until I couldn't turn it off when ready to go to sleep called office and she brought batteries which made the remote work but volume never was right. Light bulb out in the bathroom, so I changed it out for a lamp bulb that worked. I had booked for 2 people which changed last minute. Only coffee condiments in the room for 1 person 1 time. Very disappointed. If I ever stayed again I would request Main bldg and check everything before I ever unpacked anything or touched anything in the room.

Great hotel- low water pressure and shower/bath knob was backwards hot and cold, close to many bars on Friday night- very loud. Room very spacious, however back door entrance to B bldg no lighting and door open for anyone to enter. Area was beautiful,and people were very friendly.

Decor could have been nicer /mix matched pictures , lol.
Elevator was broken on our way out and had to make several trips to carry cooler and suitcases down 3 flights.
It was fixed after we actulally checked out, so I guess it was fixed fairly promptly. Within an hour.
Very loud bar patrons coming out of bar at 2 am.
4.0
Check in was good. When I opened my room the tv was on blasting loud with a broken remote, there was a dirty towel that clearly was used to remove makeup and the A/C didn’t work. The 2nd night they had some sort of party with a band directly below our room. With Children it was very difficult to sleep until after 11 when the band. Finally stopped. If we were notified of this we would have booked somewhere else. There was no one at the counter for hours to communicate with. Multiple families were upset that night. Check out went smoothly, but the over all experience left us unnerved a bit.
