Colony Beach and Tennis Resort, The
1620 Gulf of Mexico Drive
Longboat Key, Florida
34228-3499
Absolute gem. Impossible to beat the price and location. The motel is on the sand, it has a beautiful white sand beach which is not a given in the keys. The room was immaculately clean, the beds comfy and the linens spotless. I keep pinching myself, a place like this for the price we payed seems like a dream. As a Florida resident, I plan to make this a regular get away spot. This is the best value in all the keys, for sure.

Discriminatory Treatment and Harassment Ruined Our Stay I have been a regular patron of the Key Colony Beach Motel in Marathon Florida Keys, having stayed there numerous times without any issues. However, my recent experience during my last visit has left me deeply disappointed and outraged. On the day of our check-out, a tradition we've followed many times before, my family and I were looking forward to enjoying the beach and amenities for the remainder of the day. Little did we know, this would turn into a nightmare. As we were peacefully soaking up the sun on the beach with my grandchildren, we were approached in the most aggressive and rude manner imaginable by a fellow patron of the motel. To my shock, instead of intervening to defuse the situation, the front desk clerk from the hotel joined forces with this individual, exacerbating the confrontation. What ensued was nothing short of a humiliating and discriminatory experience. We were made to feel unwelcome and unwanted, with baseless accusations hurled at us. It was abundantly clear that the sole reason for this unwarranted treatment was our race. As a proud US citizen, I was appalled to have my rights violated in such a blatant manner. The lack of professionalism and humanity displayed by the staff at Key Colony Beach Motel is utterly disgraceful. No guest should ever be subjected to such harassment and discrimination, especially not in a place where they've been a loyal customer for years.

Best hidden gem in Marathon. Refreshing non- corporate plce to stay. Very clean and price very affordable. We made reservations at last minute and were surprised there was availability due to mini lobster season going on. We recommend this place over any chain hotels. The beach /tiki shade area/ pool were cleaned everyday. A/C worked great, maintenance staff were actually cleaning the filters...you don't see that happening everyday! Best advice, book directly with hotel and save even more.

Booked for 1 night to check out the area as we are heading on a cruise and wanted to be out of Ft Lauderdale. The price is high for the quality. The room was clean, the plastic is still on the lamps…and staff friendly. The motel is dated, the walls and ceiling are paper thin, so we could hear everything the people around and above us said. It was very loud with guests not observing quiet hours. The wall plugs didn’t all work and the ceiling is painted plywood. The decor has not been upgraded, there were only 3 pillows for 2 people and those were flat. The AC was very loud, making it difficult to sleep. This hotel should be avoided if you are looking for value for money and a quiet nights sleep.
