2.5 stars Very slow service. Staff very nice, but perhaps understaffed. Waited 1.5 hours for lunch at tiki bar. Took an incredibly long time to get a drink at the Tiki Bar during the day. The other outside bar was never opened during our week’ s stay. WiFi very spotty. Water turned off in resort for 2 hours. Again, staff was working hard, just not enough to run a busy resort well.

I paid for a room at the hotel. They said they "upgraded" the room to a villa. It was not an upgrade. Far walk to the hotel amenities. Parking was limited at the hotel. I paid for a hotel. To wake up in the morning and get a decent cup of coffee. The villa was dirty and old. I feel like i got scammed because they over sold the rooms.

The view from our water view king studio were spectacular! The room was extra large with everything we needed and more. The staff were wonderful. We would definitely come back. The only minor negative thing we experienced was Thursday night dance party at the outdoor bar near our room. The music had our room thumping when we were trying to get sleep.
Key lime tart at salt and ash restaurant. We had 11 different key lime desserts on our trip. This was one of our favorites.
One of two fire pits. Very large and put plenty of heat. So cozy.

We stayed 6 nights at Hawks Cay Resort in the Family Oasis with our two kids and overall enjoyed our stay. The resort felt like a 5-star property from arrival. Check-in was quick, the bellhop was helpful, and our room was clean, well-located near the pool, and ready early. The family atmosphere was wonderful; guests looked out for each other’s kids, which made us feel safe. We loved the lagoon, beach, and watching dolphins, though interaction wasn’t allowed. We were aware the kids club and one pool were closed. Food and drinks on-site were expensive and sometimes sold out later in the day. We had a 20% discount that wasn’t applied automatically, which caused frustration but was eventually credited. The resort became crowded by the weekend, making pool service slow and café lines long. Dining highlights: Angler & Ale was decent and convenient; Salt + Ash was disappointing, food arrived out of order, and portions/quality didn’t match the steep prices. Tiki bar staff were hardworking, and portions were family-friendly. Off-resort amenities are 15–20 min away; we enjoyed a day trip to Key West. Overall, beautiful grounds, strong family vibe, and enjoyable daytime experiences, but high food costs, delays, and discount issues were drawbacks.

Room was nice, people were lovely and kind and resort beautiful. Sticker SHOCK at the resort fees (daily) parking fees (what can I do once I'm here?), the food and drink prices - outrageous. All of this and one of the main adult-only restaurant/bar wasn't even open and no service on the adult side of resort. Unfortunately final cost of stay precludes us from returning.

The villa was exceptionally clean, though not well equipped (lack of kitchen ware, not salt/pepper). We had difficulty with the WiFi the entire time we were there. The staff were wonderful and friendly. There was streaming services available in the individual room but not in the common area of our villa, not allowing for family movie night.

Room was nice, although it was missing a lot of basic necessities. No trash can liners, no hand soap for the bathroom, no conditioner, ran out of soap and coffee even after asking the front desk we never received them. Wasn’t aware of the pool policy to close at 6 so that was also extremely disappointing, along with only 1 pool that kids were allowed in out of the 5 advertised
