Seashell beach resort was really nice. Right on the beach like most spots down there but what made it even cooler for me was that it had a dock going straight out into the ocean and free kayak rentals to take out during your stay. I booked our room and within an hour we got there unloaded our stuff (first floor) stepped outside hopped in a hammock and chatted before we left for key west. The room itself wasn't anything extravagant but it was nice, clean, and exactly what we needed for a good price. Would definitely book again.

Stayed here to make a day trip to Key West and experience the Seven Mile Bridge. The staff is eager to help and the oceanfront is clean and beautiful, As with all of the Keys do not expect a sand beach, waves or swimming, but it would be a good place to do some wade fishing, or kayaking. You could just relax in the chairs they provide or nap in the hammock. The pool area looked nice but we did not try it. Or only complaint and the reason for "Very Good" vs "Excellent" rating is if you have a room near Hiway 1 like we did the traffic noise is noticable and constant. It did not keep us awake but is annoying if you are just hanging out. Our friends had a waterfront room and loved the place. We would stay here again.
