Reviews for Hawks Cay Resort
Washed up resort
I have been visiting this resort for more than 20 years. Unfortunately while the staff are nice the resort has continued to go downhill. The villas, while finishes look nice they are dirty. Floors are gross, ac barely works, dirty furniture. Yuck. We are supposed to stay 5 days and changing our plans to go home after 3.

Best Resort in the Keys by far.
We vacation at Hacks Cay Resort last week and had the best time ever. The pools were amazing, the food as well. I was very impressed with Danielle from engineering, I called to ask if we can get light checked in the room and she was the nicest person. We had someone in the room within minutes. Thank you to all the employees and staff. They work so hard. The resort looked amazing. Great value for the money great locations as well. I’ll definitely go back.

Justin AS a great addition to the staff!
Been here 75+ times and we love when we come across a great employee! Justin AS Visited us and was super welcoming and asked us if we needed anything! This is not a normal situation or experience here at Hawks. We are used to Island time service which is what it is. Justin had us clean towels and reloaded the bin that was just nasty and loaded with dirty ones. Hes a keeper 100%

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!
-Erika S.
A wonderful place to totally relax and enjoy the beautiful water of the Florida Keys!
