Where to stay

Best areas in Islamorada for a hot tub stay

Not every area in Islamorada hits the same vibe. Here's where each verified property actually sits, and what each pocket feels like at night.

Overseas Highway MM 82 (Upper Matecumbe Key)

On the Overseas Highway at Mile Marker 82 in Upper Matecumbe Key, two of Islamorada's three hot-tub-search hotels sit close together. Casa Morada (4.6, 1,447 reviews) is the small oceanfront boutique — pool, free breakfast, direct beach access, bicycle rental, yoga classes and pet-friendly rooms — with a strong pre-renovation 4.6 reputation but candid recent 1-2 star flags on the current renovation state. Multiple 2024-2025 reviews report 'scam! buyers beware... hotel is under renovation,' 'total trash. Everything is under construction and roped off,' construction workers everywhere, and a 25-time-repeat guest (married there 2004) writing 'a love letter, a lament and a hope for return.' Islander Resort (4.3, 1,364 reviews) is the mid-range beach-resort at MM 82 — pool, bar/lounge, direct beach access, bicycle rental and pet-friendly rooms. Islander is the safer MM 82 pick during Casa Morada's renovation.

Overseas Highway MM 85 (Windley Key)

On the Overseas Highway at Mile Marker 85 in Windley Key, Coconut Cove Resort and Marina (3.7, 435 reviews) is Islamorada's value marina property — pool, free parking, beach, fishing, BBQ facilities and free WiFi. Subratings 3.6-4.5 with location (4.5) strongest and rooms (3.6) softest. Candid 1-star flags on 'run down and overpriced' property, 'rusty shower head, rusty hinges, cracks and chips in the shower' bathroom condition, and closed-down bar and restaurant. Book only for value-first Keys visitors accepting the property's condition.

Things to do in Islamorada

Beyond the hotel room

Sport fishing is Islamorada's identity — the village bills itself as the Sport Fishing Capital of the World. Bud n' Mary's Sportfishing Marina and Whale Harbor Marina host most of the offshore charter fleet — sailfish and mahi in spring, snapper and tarpon in summer, and sailfish tournament season January-March.

Robbie's of Islamorada at MM 77.5 is a famous tourist stop where you can feed live-fed tarpon (100+ pound Atlantic tarpon that congregate at the marina) from the dock — a must-do family activity. Theater of the Sea at MM 84 is a small marine-mammal park with dolphin and sea-lion encounters.

Anne's Beach at Lower Matecumbe Key (MM 73.5) is a small public beach with shallow warm water and picnic tables. Islamorada Beer Company and the Islamorada Fish Company are local Overseas Highway dining stops.

Alligator Reef Lighthouse offshore is a top diving and snorkeling site with reef fish and rich soft coral — accessible via charter from Bud n' Mary's or Robbie's. Windley Key Fossil Reef Geological State Park at MM 85 preserves ancient quarry walls showing 125,000-year-old coral fossils.

Beyond Islamorada — Key Largo 30 minutes northeast for John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and the 5-hotel Keys gateway cluster; Marathon and Seven Mile Bridge 45 minutes southwest for the classic Keys drive; Key West 90 minutes southwest for Duval Street and Old Town. Winter is snowbird peak; spring is sport-fishing tournament season; summer is snapper and lobster mini-season; fall is the quieter shoulder-season.

For couples

Why a Islamorada hot tub suite works for romance

For couples, Islamorada is a Keys sport-fishing and marina destination rather than a couples-luxury address. Casa Morada is historically the couples-boutique pick (small oceanfront, pool, yoga, garden Twilight and Manatee waterfront suites praised), but the current renovation makes it a risky booking — confirm completion at booking. Islander Resort is the mid-range safer pick with beach and bar. None of the three properties advertise in-room jacuzzis. For a marketed romance-and-jacuzzi Keys stay, drive 30 minutes northeast to Key Largo for Playa Largo Autograph or 90 minutes southwest to Key West for the Casa Marina Waldorf Astoria. For a marketed in-room-jacuzzi Florida romance property, look at Sybaris-style couples resorts outside the Keys cluster.

Many of the Islamorada properties below offer extras on request — champagne service, rose-petal turn-down, or late check-out. Mention your occasion at booking; most front desks try to help.

Casa Morada

4.5·293 Google reviews

"Casa Morada is a real gem in the Keys. Surrounded by lush gardens, it feels like a bubble of serenity and peace. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, the pool is beautifully laid out and never too busy. Breakfast is excellent, and the Thai food truck open for lunch and dinner is a unique highlight. I highly recommend it!"

Islander Resort

"The rooms and atmosphere was lovely... Very clean. The only issue with the room was ... No microwave. The beach isn't a nice swimming beach but still beautiful. The pools are very nice. The activities are good. Restaurants don't give much food for price but tastes very good. Bed comfortable, towels plentiful, grounds beautiful"

Getting here

How to reach Islamorada

Islamorada sits along the Overseas Highway (US-1) at Mile Markers 73-91 in the Upper Florida Keys, about 90 minutes south of Miami and 90 minutes north of Key West. Miami International Airport (MIA) is the primary gateway — about 90 minutes north via US-1 through Homestead and Key Largo. Key West International Airport (EYW) is about 90 minutes south. Casa Morada is at Madeira Road just off MM 82; Islander Resort at MM 82; Coconut Cove Resort at MM 85 on the Overseas Highway. A car is essential — Islamorada is a stretched island chain along US-1, not walkable end-to-end. Bicycle rental at Casa Morada and Islander Resort works for short-radius exploration around MM 82. The Overseas Highway is the only route in and out — expect southbound traffic Fridays in season and northbound traffic Sundays. Once you have arrived, plan to keep a car for day trips around the region; most attractions are an easy drive, and parking at the hotel is straightforward.

Tub types, explained

What's the difference between a jacuzzi, whirlpool, and soaking tub?

Jacuzzi

Technically a brand name, but used generically for any jetted tub. In hotel listings, "jacuzzi suite" almost always means a private in-room tub with built-in air or water jets. Heat is usually preset; jets are user-controlled.

Whirlpool

Functionally identical to a jacuzzi — water jets circulate heated water for a massage effect. The term is more common at Marriott, Hilton, and Wyndham brands. Most "whirlpool suites" hold two adults comfortably.

Soaking tub

Deeper than a standard bathtub, usually 18–22 inches, but with no jets. Common in boutique and luxury hotels — quieter, more spa-like, and better for a long hot soak than the jet-driven hum of a jacuzzi.

Hot tub

In strict use, a standalone heated tub holding 100°F+ water. In hotel marketing, often used interchangeably with jacuzzi or whirlpool. A genuine in-room "hot tub" with full thermostat control is rare outside cabin-style resorts.

Every listing on this page specifies which type you'll find in the room. We list only properties with the tub in your room — not in a shared pool area or the lobby spa.

For Sport-fishing charter guest Which Islamorada hotel is best for a sport-fishing charter trip?

Islander Resort (4.3/1,364) at MM 82 is currently the safer pick with pool, bar/lounge and direct beach access — its near-perfect 4.8 location subrating and staff-by-name praise (Sara, Angela, Janelle, Vin, Vincent, Marissa) work well for anglers arriving late from charters. Coconut Cove Resort (3.7/435) at MM 85 has a fishing marina directly on site but candid property-condition flags. Casa Morada is currently under renovation — book only after confirming completion. For sport-fishing tournament weekends January-March, book 3-6 months ahead.

A 25-time-repeat guest married at the resort in 2004 wrote 'a love letter, a lament and a hope for return' — signaling that longtime fans see the current state as a temporary disruption. Book only after confirming completion; otherwise consider Islander Resort next door.

For Keys value traveler Is Coconut Cove Resort worth the value rate?

Book only if you plan to eat off-property and accept the property's condition.

Why trust us

Hand-verified. No AI filler.

Every hotel on this page has been personally verified to have a private, in-room hot tub or jacuzzi — not a shared pool tub, not a bathroom soaker, not a spa amenity you have to book. We cross-check three sources for every listing: the hotel's own room photos and descriptions, recent guest reviews on TripAdvisor and Google, and direct confirmation from the hotel where unclear. We don't take payment for placement, and we don't generate listings with AI. If a hotel's tub status changes or a property closes, the page updates the next time we re-verify the city (Dothan was last checked May 2026).
