Overview

Rating

The Drift Hotel offers a central location on Key Largo, within easy access of most of the attractions guests might want to enjoy. It’s also within easy reach of the rest of the Keys, including Key West, as well as Homestead and Miami. Area attractions include Laura Quinn Wild Bird Sanctuary, Founders Park and Beach, the John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, the Dolphin Research Center, and Everglades National Park.

There are 21 guest rooms on the property, all of which are designed with light, airy colors to evoke a traditional Keys theme. Guests can choose between standard king and standard two queen rooms, king or queen suites, doubles, or the ocean view suite. All rooms come equipped with luxury bedding, climate control, blackout curtains, Wi-Fi, private baths, coffee makers, and more. Suites include additional living areas.

The Drift Hotel is located right on the water and actually has its own dock with a boat ramp for guests who prefer to arrive by water. The property also offers free Wi-Fi throughout, free parking, fire pits for cooking or relaxing, sun decks where guests can soak up the rays, and access to the beach. For those looking to add a bit of adventure to their stay, the hotel can rent bikes, kayaks or canoes, snorkeling gear, SUP gear, and more.

There is no dining option at the property, but guests will find plenty in the surrounding area. Blog Giraffe Key Lime Pie Factory is a great stop for a sweet snack, but there is also Café Moka, Key Largo Fisheries Backyard Café, and What the Fish Rolls & More.
