Island Hotel & Cedar Key

A very cool experience that everyone should experience! The island is beautiful. The food and coffee are wonderful and everyone is so nice. We loved the wildlife and weather was perfect! Would recommend staying at the Island Hotel for all your relaxing needs!

Cedar Keys on the Gulf of America

We had a quiet and relaxing stay, most of the staff was polite, and helpful. We really enjoyed eating at the restaurant at the hotel Island, the cook did well on almost every part of the meal. We will be back.

Was a fun place to stay. Though they really did crank the heat during our Thanksgiving stay. My 80 year old mother found it quite nice. My 50 year old wife did not. So it is all subjective. Neat hotel. Coffee in the morning, thank God.

Classic Florida

The hotel is great. People were friendly and courteous. Would stay there again. Only negative thing was my room had a private bathroom across the hallway. I guess I didn’t read the listing completely. Otherwise I loved the hotel.
