“Repeat Visitors”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

We just finished another visit to the White Sands Inn on Grassy Key Fl. Location is key here...out of Marathon just enought to make a quick trip to the market easy but allowing one to enjoy the privacy that this property affords. Janice & Rachel run the place with casual ease...available if you need something - "Just ask!". They allow you to relax in their backyard which is ocean front, palm trees and a heated pool. Morning sunrise and evening sunsets are spectacular, especially sitting out on the dock. The rooms/suites are all different, having once been a fishing lodge years ago. They are done up in cool conch keys colors and are very clean with some recent updates too. We just love the laid back feel to this place and will continue to stay on this little key with the island feel whenever we go down to the Keys!!

Room Tip: Big deck upstairs in room 7 overlooking the water. Full moon on the beach is awsome!!

“My Island Hideaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012

Lovely little inn. Clean, quiet and nicely situated on a small private beach with a nice little pool on premises. I come here to clear my head and enjoy some "island time." I loved the room I stayed in so much the first year I requested it the next year when I returned. I miss my cat when I travel, so it is a plus for me that there is a sweet little cat named Gimpy, looked after by the inn's owners, who comes to visit when I am there. But the best part is lying in a hammock or going out on the dock at night and watching the sunset, then gazing at the millions of stars in the sky.

You can't beat the location.......half way down the keys.
Easy to get to Key West from there.
The hotel is clean, the people friendly.
You have both a pool and the beach.

“I love this place!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2012

This is a super cute little hotel. We love staying here. It is so quaint and quiet. The views are amazing since all the hotel is steps from the ocean. I also love how the hotel is run by a family and they are all so nice and helpful. You should check this place out if you are down in the Keys.
