The place is a 2 star, it needs to be updated badly. The bed wasn’t comfortable. Beach is covered in rotting sargasm, the free breakfast was tasty but the options are limited.

I absolutely loved our stay at Rainbow Bend Resort! Our room was super cute with an incredible ocean view. The night sky was breathtaking, Mornings were just as beautiful with serene, calming views. The room was very clean and cozy (yes, the walls are a bit thin, but it didn’t take away from the experience). What really stood out was their customer service truly incomparable. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful.

Property is right on the Atlantic side of the island with beautiful views. And amazing for sunrise viewing. Sunset views are just a couple miles south of the resort. Staff was great and always asked if there was anything we needed. Onsite hot tub and pool were great as well. The onsite restaurant was amazing as well. Highly recommended for a quaint keys vacation

The property was nice, secluded and quiet. Some of the wiring was exposed and more work needs to be done, but very nice quaint place.

Room was not clean. There was coffee stain on the drawers, trash already in the trash can. Poor lightning. Almost no lights in the room. One window with shutters closed. Property advertised having a private beach and a pool. Beach was extremely dirty, impossible to get in the water and bad smell coming from it. Pool closed due to not following some code. I had to bring my family somewhere else to be able to get in the water.

Love the vibe. The property is gorgeous, with fishing, kayaking, and the pool. We loved sitting outside under the palm trees at night. The breakfast was delicious and the staff were great. 100% will come again.
