Fantastic resort for families. Kim drove us on a tour of the resort and was highly knowledgeable and kind. We will be coming back.

During our wonderful stay, we met with Manager Bob, who showed genuine interest in discussing the resort with us. His grasp of family needs was commendable and his excitement contagious. We are excited about the prospect of participating in their family-oriented activities. Undoubtedly, we will return.

We loved our stay at Hawks Cay, but hitting the tennis courts was a major highlight of our stay. My wife and I booked private lessons with the onsite pro, Patrick, and we couldn't be happier. He brought amazing energy to the session and his coaching really leveled up our game. We highly recommend booking a lesson with him while you're visiting!

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!
