We arrived early but were able to use the pool. Lovely cannon firing ceremony at sunset with a sunset shot from the bar. We ate wings and a pretzel from the bar which were both delicious. Room was large and the bed was really comfortable.

Exceeded expectations!

We’re a family of 5, so we’re always using sofas and pull out beds, these were very comfy and everyone slept well. Didn’t use a lot of the amenities, but place was very clean and everyone was super friendly.

I was not happy about not having a dining room or bar as advertised, for the price I should have been notified in making a decision before booking. Everything else was good.

It was very frustrating that during our cumulative total of eight days stay, seven nights, the housekeeping plan was to only clean our room one time and it was on the seventh night. When we asked about this three days in, they said OK we can probably fit in one cleaning for you midway through your stay but that will be the only one, if you desire any additional cleanings that will be $150 each. When they cleaned the room, I would hardly call it clean. That was a little bit frustrating. Beyond that, we thoroughly enjoyed the property and our time at this particular Bluegreen resort.

Check in was quick. We stopped on our way down to Key West but the room wasn't ready, it was about 2pm. We were fine with that we told them we would be back late. We got back about 11:30pm. Check in was quick but the gentleman working had just started his ahift but not trying to be mean he smelled horrible. It was hard to stand there and sign the paperwork. The room is beautiful !!!! Clean and free bag of popcorn. TV in bedroom keeps going out. There is no storm outside but the inclement weather sign keeps coming on....ugh. Wanted to watch tv and relax before to sleep.

Loved the spacious apartment & balcony, nice big beach towels, pool & hot tub were lovely, enjoyed Barnacle Barney's mostly though food choices a little limited. Would've been nice to be able to borrow beach chairs & umbrella for Sombrero. We like having double sinks in the bathroom but we're spoiled :-) Bed was very comfortable. Great location in Marathon -- we had a wonderful vacation.

I liked that it was quiet and set back from the highway. Felt very secure. Staff were friendly and supportive. The kitchen was small but we only cooked breakfast. Could have used a Keurig. Lobby coffee ran out fast! MaryJo at Barnacle Barney’s and Pamela the activities director were outstanding

Nice!

Rooms were nice size but sofa cushions was not comfortable and kept sliding off under you . Beds were awesomely comfortable. Very clean and quiet. Good location. Shutting down pool at 8pm sucked. Smells from seaweed was horrible. Need more options from tiki bar..liquor and meals.., not a resort more like a hotel...and where were the hammocks??..staff were very nice and accommodating. Will refer.

Can't recommend highly enough

The Bluegreen is a great place. The staff was excellent and our suite was spacious, clean and nicely decorated. Our bedroom and bed were huge and our boys were very comfortable on the pull-out. Everything you need is there- the pool, the tiki bar and programming for the family. In the evenings you can hang out on the dock when the fishing trips come in and cut up their catch. It draws the tarpon, pelicans and even some nurse sharks in. My sons loved it. Highly recommend this place for families. We will definitely be back.

Great place to stay!

Very nice! The room was clean, beds were very comfortable, tiki bar relaxing, hot tub and pool area also very nice. I wish the coffee would have been available earlier in the morning. Check in was a bit of an irritation. We were a little early and were told our room would be ready by 4:00, and if sooner they would text us. We were able to relax and have a drink at the Tiki bar, then the hot tub, then we got the text our room was ready. However, we had to wait while the person in front of us decided to chat up the check in person so he could stall until 4:00 and get his room. This was not the hostess’s fault, but there should have been an easier way for us to get our room rather than making us wait, dripping wet in the lobby without towels to get into our room that was ready. Overall, very nice!
