Loved the pool and the live music at the Tipsy Rooster! They also give you pass to get chairs and towels at the beach that is close by- which was very nice.

Great place. I was very happy with the location as it wasnt too close to the noisy/busy areas but just close enough. Check in could be a little earlier would be my only complaint. The room was comfortable, not too cluttered, very clean, not any issues with bugs or pests. A few iguanas made it interesting and fun. Pool was warm, clean and not over occupied. Id say the place is a 4.5 out of 5. Its not the ritz, but I'm picky and it was great. Wife liked it as well. Bar was good, Ana's across the street was great for a bite and amazing coffee. I'd definitely stay again and highly recommend.

All in all - a great place to stay. The facility overall could use updating. Even keeping it the 50's style - there are just broken tiles, our shower faucet was barely hanging on, chipped paint, etc that need to be updated. That said - it's very clean, the staff is friendly and the pools are nice. Nothing fancy but it's quiet and within walking distance of everything. It's not a swanky resort but they have everything you need for a good price. If we were to come back to the Keys - we'd stay there again!

South Winds was so close to Duval Street literally steps away. We went out on the town every night and even started referring to the Motel as "home" at the end of each night. Beds were very comfortable, and the rooms offered all you need for a short stay. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
