The first island you’ll hit as you drive through the keys is Key Largo, most famous for it’s watersports with reef snorkelling, diving, and glass bottom boat tours out of John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park as must-do activities. Neighbouring the state park you’ll find Playa Largo set on 14.5 acres of secluded shoreline, providing your own piece of paradise to stay whilst exploring this part of Florida’s famous archipalageo. The private beach is the only thing between you and the sparkling waters of Florida Bay, where you can enjoy a range of watersports right from the hotel as well as venturing out to nearby attractions (of which there are plenty). There is a laid-back feel to the resort, perfectly in keeping with the area, but that doesn’t stop the facilities and service being up to standard. From a beach shack restaurant to a ceviche bar, all tastebuds are catered for, La Marea is a particularly great choice for locally sourced seafood and freshly handmade artisan breads and pizzas. When you’re seeking serenity after all the activity, book in at Ocean Spa where you can try specially formulated scrubs using coffee grounds, sugar, and salt. The top class service doesn’t end when you get to your room, an iPad is on hand to offer on-demand services to ensure your stay is up to scratch.

Grab a waterfront seat at Sol by the Sea for Caribbean flavours done right, or kick back with ceviche and a cocktail at Las Olas—just steps from the sand. Fancy something fancier?

I cannot say enough about our stay. It was absolutely amazing - from the staff to the activities to the atmosphere surrounding the place. I highly recommend it. The day we arrived we were greeted with smiles from the valets and such friendly fun service from Elena, the manager, who checked us in. The bartenders at the Sand Bar were very observant and took care of us with remarkable service. We took the mixology class with Matt and highly encourage you to do the same. His knowledge on the history of the drinks and preparation was fantastic. Ending the evenings with s'mores by the pool and/or Eventide by the beach was perfect. Dinner at Le Marea was phenomenal with Denise taking care of us. You must go and have the beef stroganoff. Everyone here always had a smile on their face and made it seem that they wanted to take care of us. We are definitely returning in the future.
