A lovely little gem tucked away, with kind and friendly staff. Nothing was too much trouble for them

We love going to the Keys, but noticed how expensive it is now becoming, sadly, so this was a decent price for a decent product. Drop Anchor was just lovely. The sun area to the rear of the property was a huge bonus and beautifully kept. If I stay again, I would like a room at the rear of the property because I like to relax in the sun, whilst my husband goes out fishing a lot. The cooker and fridge/freezer were really good. And there was a container of ice in there already for us to use.

Nice location and facilities. A bit of an old 80's vibe, but in a good way. Spacios room. We took a kanoo for some time and it was very nice. Nice and welcoming woman in the reception.

I enjoyed Drop Anchor enough to revisit but disappointed with the additional charge, when I feel we already paid a fair

Excellent location with beautiful views

Forced to pay additional “resort” fee of $35!

The bed was comfortable.

Terrible experience.

This property charges a non refundable fee for 'resort amenities' without telling you first (unauthorized charge) and even if you don't use the 'amenities'. There's no mention of this fee in the property description. When you ask them to remove the unauthorized charge for 'amenities', they will lie and say that they told you at check in. It's such a scam. If the fee is mandatory and not refundable, why don't they just include it in the nightly rate. Stay away from this property. And don't be mistaken, this is by no means a resort, it is a simple motel.

Everything was fine except for the light entering the room, which made it difficult to sleep well. The price was also no

Good location and tranquility.
