We swung by the bar after our dinner to celebrate our 3 years anniversary and Jacob was our bartender. He was a delight! He was the best bartender we had. He treated us like family and we had an absolute blast. Drinks were strong and delicious. We will be back for sure!

We had such a great time touring Hawks Cay Resort. As locals from Big Pine Key, we stopped in on a super busy, really hot weekend without an appointment and the wedding team still made time for us and made us feel really welcome. At other venues, we toured prior to this we’ve often felt like we were bothering people, but at Hawks Cay we felt totally taken care of. Big thank-you to Magda for making the visit so easy and helping us feel confident in our decision. After we booked, we found out Magda is actually the new Director of Catering, but you’d never guess it. She felt like a longtime island local, super knowledgeable about everything from the restaurants to the best local seafood and even what’s going on seasonally for a November wedding. We’re so excited to have booked our wedding for November 2026 with about 45 guests. This is a second marriage for both of us, and Hawks Cay just feels like the perfect place to start this new chapter. The pricing was also really reasonable. Thanks again, Magda, we can’t wait to celebrate at Hawks Cay this November!

I took my husband here this year for his birthday and we stayed 10 nights! The place is absolutely perfect! From the grounds to the staff, everything is top notch!

This year was our first visit to the Keys and therefore first time to stay at Hawks Cay. People, please listen, this is a great place to vacation! The service is impeccable and the staff was not just helpful, but truly friendly and wonderful to interact with. We didn't catch names very well, but the lady responsible for our room was lovely in heart and soul as well as the tram driver. Great, great place. And for me, the food the entire week was awesome, top-notch, delicious and I'll certainly come back.

This resort is magnificent. We stayed here for mini-lobster season and it was phenomenal. The room was so big and the bed was very comfy! The staff were so nice to us and it was very easy to launch our boat. Can't wait for the upcoming mini season! We'll definitely be staying here again!
