We had a great short stay at La Jolla Resort! The beds were comfy and the resort itself was nice. We took advantage of the paddle boards, kayaks, and snorkel gear. Also catching the sunset from the back on the hammocks was an added plus!

I travel to Islamorada every few months to go diving with Key Dives. I usually stay at Amara Cay or Hawks Cay which are closer to the dive shop, and often overpriced - even this time of year (April) for FL residents. LaJolla is comfortable, quiet, has great beach area and docks, plus kayaks, swimming, and lots of beach chairs. Ver relaxing, and $100 cheaper!

Way overpriced. Terrible road noise and poor windows and door make for sleepless night. Mold on the ceiling and very humid in the room. Pictures on the website are misleading. This is a two star motel. I don’t recommend at all. What a waste of money
Response from Lajolla Resort Team on Mar 27, 2024
Dear Francois, it is unfortunate that you did not have a great experience with. We take cleanliness in our resort very serious and we inspected your room for mold and we did not find any mold in room. And unfortunate that you did not bring anything to us while you were here so we could address it momentarily.

This was enjoyable for our one night stay. Quick, easy check-in. Beautiful, large room - ground level unit K. There were many cars and we saw other guests but didn't hear any noise from neighbors. Although the road noise was very noticable while sleeping. A quick walk across the street to the Islmadora Brewing Company was a great way to relax and enjoy a flight of beer and cocktails on their back patio: the frozen key limei cocktail was wonderful. We also took advantage of the kayaks and paddle boards for a morning paddle on the calm bay.

Smooth check in. Nice property. Buildings are typical older Key West but have been nicely updated. Our room has a great view of the Gulf. Wish it had a deck instead of just sliding glass doors that are permanently shut.. Property grounds are very nice with a new dock.

Outstanding gem in Islamorada!
Our stay at La Jolla Resort was fantastic. The rooms are really nicely updated and have outstanding mattresses. The location is awesome for anyone who enjoys Islamorada Brewery and Distillery as it's right across the road. We often felt like we had the place to ourselves. The staff was helpful and friendly. We would not hesitate to stay here again in the future!

Feeling ripped off!
I would like to say that the room was clean, however given the condition and how chopped up the room was, certainly is way off base for the nightly rates that they charge! Broken glass in office entry, stairs to climb, and a room that had ceiling so low that I felt I had to duck. 2 steps up to enter the bathroom! Shower was nicely tiled. But this was ridiculous rate of 289. Per night. Never again!

Older buildings; however, once you walked behind the office, the location is amazing! Our passwords didn’t work, had to go ask twice for the new password. Attention to detail… Both receptionists were very friendly and helpful. Comfortable beds; nicely appointed and comfortable. The showers were plumbed backwards, so took two cold showers. Overall, it came down to LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION!
