Casa Morada

The hotel was in the mist of redoing it's landscaping by adding gaint palm trees and some new boat docks, but it didn't interfere with the overall feel of the place. We enjoyed the free paddle boards and pool. Its also located on a beautiful part of the Keys

My room was the Twilight garden view suite. My travel companion stayed in the waterfront Manatee room. Both are sparkling clean, had plenty of bath linens, and a good supply of drinks and snacks. We kept the car in the very convenient parking directly below my suite. There is also plenty of parking at the waterfront rooms. My bed was really comfortable with a variety of pillows for most preferences. The bed linens are good quality. I used the bed in the sitting room for reading and a little TV watching. Malin and Goetz toiletries are fabulous! Nice rain shower and personal shower. Housekeeping staff are lovely. The grounds are lush, gorgeous Old Florida natural with native plants galore. Live, blooming orchids grow in many trees The landscape design is perfect for strolling with my tiny dog. Plenty of seating areas for relaxing, scenic pauses. This feature is one of the reasons for my selection of Casa Morada. I am an 82 year old native Floridian lady who grew up on the Florida Gulf coast. The native plants were a welcome rejuvenation for me. The water front is beautifully designed and I spent a lot of time in the island pagoda. Shout out for receptionist and General Factotum Sam. She was 2 minutes away when my friend had a night time glitch with his TV. Casa Morada is quiet, no elevator noise or raucous partiers. It is adults only. It is not a 5-star hotel. It is a perfect retreat. We really did not want to leave, and plan to return in the Fall.

I liked the quiet atmosphere and tranquility. I liked the no hassle feeling from the staff. Everyone smiles!!!

My husband and I stayed here for a quick weekend getaway and I am so glad we did! The rooms were very clean, the staff were all friendly and helpful and the property is beautiful! We loved that it was a small resort and tucked away from the main road, which made it comfortable and quiet. We enjoyed having breakfast overlooking the Bay and all of the beautiful flowers and trees on the property. We are already looking forward to another getaway here! I highly recommend this place for couples.
