    This place suits me perfectly with its free parking, heated swimming pool, and beach access. The staff once helped me find the route to a nearby attraction, which I appreciated. I’m coming back for Christmas!

    charming resort with room for improvement

    The property has a wonderful waterfront view which enhances the overall ambiance. The pool area provided a comfortable retreat from the heat, making it a great spot to relax and unwind.

    The lack of a swimming beach was disappointing.

    cleanliness issues
    ac problems

    We had an amazing time with friends! The property has great amenities, including kayaks and a lovely pool to cool off in. We visited the Theater of the Sea and enjoyed the outdoor vibe. Perfect spot for a fun getaway!

    We were disappointed with the room's cleanliness. there were hairs in the bathroom and issues with the AC unit. It made the stay less comfortable than we hoped.

    I absolutely loved the charming, vibrant decor and well-maintained grounds at Drop Anchor Resort & Marina. The accessible outdoor areas, complete with picnic tables and hammocks, made it easy for me to relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings.

    Bathroom could use more ventilation for humidity.

    The room was clean and comfortable. It had a good shower and plenty of towels. The mini fridge and coffee pot with coffee were nice touches. The A/C worked great, which is a must in Florida. I liked the island vibe, really made it feel like a getaway. Overall, it looked just like the pictures online and was perfect for a quick stay.

    My partner and I enjoyed our stay at Drop Anchor. The heated pool and complimentary kayaks made for lovely afternoons. While our room showed some wear, the sunset views from the balcony were lovely. I'd recommend this charming spot for its unique character and cute atmosphere!

    park access
    local dining

    perfect spot for park visits and city exploration

    I loved being just a short walk away from the beautiful Windley Key Fossil Reef Geological State Park, which made our weekend strolls so enjoyable. The nearby History of Diving Museum offered fascinating insights into the area's maritime heritage. even though it wasn't a gourmet restaurant, I had the best, most mouthwatering sweet potato fries at a local eatery, with friendly service that made for a pleasant dining experience.
