The hotel room and front desk staff were fine. Room was clean and bed was comfortable. The bar area was disappointing. Smoking is permitted everywhere and there were many smokers. Pew! It is also truly a locals bar so the bar tenders were attentive to their regular customers making us wait quite a long time to be served. We liked the live music but stood in the pool area to hear them to avoid the smoking stench. The experience was disappointing because we booked Dolphin Key because they had the tiki area with live music. If you don’t mind a place filled with heavy smokers this is for you.

Bar and Grill was their best feature. A bit rowdy but if that's the vibe you're looking for, it's a fun place to stay. Rooms are fine, it's a motel. However, husband found it too humid

It was ok.

The highlight of my stat was definitely the lady at check-in—super sweet and friendly. The room itself was a bit of a letdown; it had a weird smell, not very fresh, but it was clean enough and did the job since I was only there for one night. I wish I had known there was going to be a band playing, though. At first, I was happy that my room faced the pool area, but that just meant I had to listen to music until almost 10:30 at night. It kind of ruined the relaxing vibe I was hoping for, like reading and chilling out. Also, the pictures online made the place look nicer than it actually was, which was a bit disappointing.

The room was nice, clean, bed comfortable. It had a mini fridge but no microwave. Good hot water supply. Facility is a motel with a patio and pool, beside the Tiki Bar. Ice machine out of service, but ice was available at the Tiki Bar. The Tiki Bar had very loud music playing in the evening. They turned down the volume or shut if off at 10 pm. The Tiki Bar brings in a lot of outside patrons and my wife said, "I'm not swimming in the pool with all those folks in the tiki bar watching me."

This is our second time at Dolphin Key Resort, it is easy to get to, the staff is helpful and friendly and reasonably priced. There are tons of places to eat around the resort, they even have entertainment and food at the Tiki Bar which is right on the property. The pool is always clean and not very busy and they provide you with pool towels. It would be nice if they had a small microwave in the rooms. Our shower was pretty hot this time.
