More about the hotel
Very private location
We had originally scheduled a trip overseas for our 30th anniversary before the world shut down. I decided to try to find somewhere in the US that was somewhat secluded but still warm and nice enough to replace our planned trip. It is an expensive place to stay but well worth it compared to other options we could find. Casa Morada is a beautiful little place to stay. There are a limited number of rooms available on a fairly large property. The private little island that has the pool, bar and lawn chairs was a great place to hang out in the sun without dealing with crowds of any sort. So we booked our trip for a week at the end of Dec/beginning of Jan 2021 The service is excellent. Each morning our breakfast was delivered to the room since they could not do their normal setup due to the pandemic. We stayed in the Iguana suite, which is one of the bigger ones and has a little private area with a couple of chairs and looks out to the little harbor and island. The room was clean and comfortable and could be made private by closing the inner doors over the huge sliding doors that overlook the harbor/island. We took advantage of their sunset sailboat cruise on the day of our anniversary and it was well worth the money. I'm terrible with names, but the captain and his mate were full of interesting information about the area while we were getting our private sail. The free yoga classes that were offered were very good and we took advantage of 2 of them. The free Bikes, paddle boards and kayaks were also very useful. You can kayak/paddleboard starting right in the little harbor. They are located close enough to many restaurants that you can just walk, so the car never moved unless we were headed to another key. I'd give them 6 stars if I could, it was just the quiet escape we needed.
Casamorada
Very charming hotel, Gorgeous room with fabulous view but the best was the staff. I particularly thank Edith at the bar she was very good. My room was beyond expectations, the housekeeping staff was efficient, attentive. but do not recall a better or accommodating staff. The pool is very nice, nice lounge chairs. Sunset boat trip is always amazing, the boat who belong to the hotel M/S Blue Mist which is 103 years is spectacular to sail with to see the sunset.Also the sailboat is a good Sunset option. A Perfect place to read a good book. I have been to many hundreds hotels and been sailing around the word 5 times, this is definitely the place to stay a few days p, 5 big stars from my side.
What a gem!!
We eloped in Islamorada and spent the next 2 weeks hopping around the Keys. We were staying at a large resort in Marathon and just weren't happy with the place so we decided to return to Islamorada for the last night of our honeymoon. We tried to get back into The Moorings where we got married and they were fully booked but referred us to Casa Morada. We are so happy they did!! This place is such a hidden gem! We love the smaller boutique style hotels. The service here was amazing! We called just 2 days before and the woman who answered the phone was so kind and helpful. She gave us one of the last two rooms available, the Wild Water jacuzzi suite in the Garden building. It was surprisingly spacious, with a separate sitting area, screened porch and of course a jacuzzi tub. This was an end unit on the second floor and we loved all the windows making us feel like we were in a tree house! The man who checked us in was kind enough to give us a tour of the property and show us to our room. We then walked down to the bar for lunch and the woman working there greeted us with fresh citrus water. We ordered some drinks and food and just loved sitting there looking out at the water and the boats. So relaxing! The property is beautiful with all the trees, plants, and hidden water features. Everyone working there was amazing. My husband requested a bottle of champagne be delivered while we were out to dinner and they set it up with candles all around the room too, so romantic! The included in-room breakfast was nice and convenient too! We had an awesome stay and wouldn't hesitate to book here again! My only regret is not having another night!!
The perfect staycation
We drove down from Ft Lauderdale for a weekend getaway to relax and enjoy each other's company. The property was tucked away off the main street adding to the relaxation vibe we were looking for. The room opened up to a beautiful path that lead to the water which added to the vibe. The room was perfect for a couple looking to enjoy each other's company for the weekend. The service was impeccable and access to the paddle boards and bikes was a very nice bonus. The location was perfect we were never more than 5 minutes away from a restaurant or bar we wanted to goto, which we recommend Mar Bar, The Square Grouper, and Midway Cafe for breakfast.
Getaway few days with husband
We have nothing but nice things to say. First, when we arrived they couldn’t find our reservation. Was sooo worried and disappointed, since we had an issue earlier in the summer for a different trip. (that’s another story in itself). Well, I excused myself (super cute boutique hotel) and had my husband figure it out. There was a computer glich during Covid and they did not receive our 3rd party reservation. Long story short, we stayed in one room and were able to stay in our reserved gulf view the remaining nights. So glad they were not sold out. They were very accommodating and continually checked on us- bought our first round of drinks, refunded some room amount, etc. Beautiful, quiet location- we will be back and either confirm our 3rd party reservation or just book directly! They also offer day excursions (snorkeling, kayaking), sunset cruises (all extra), but have for free use of bikes, kayaks, paddle boards. Location is prime Islamorada
