Kimberly, 6-night trip

10/10 Excellent

We had an excellent experience at Rainbow Bend. Staff was friendly, hospitable. Property was nice. My only “complaint” would be about the sargassum amounts, but that’s not resort’s fault. We would definitely come back!
Stacy, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Property is right on the Atlantic side of the island with beautiful views. And amazing for sunrise viewing. Sunset views are just a couple miles south of the resort. Staff was great and always asked if there was anything we needed. Onsite hot tub and pool were great as well. The onsite restaurant was amazing as well. Highly recommended for a quaint keys vacation
Robert Michael, 6-night trip

8/10 Good

The property was nice, secluded and quiet. Some of the wiring was exposed and more work needs to be done, but very nice quaint place.
Jessica, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Our room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The shower was also good. The onsite restaurant is excellent! Unfortunately, the seaweed made the beach area unusable.

magdy, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

The rooms were very updated. The only issue was the sea wall was not cleaned. It was full of trash. Besides that, breakfast was delicious and the overall place was beautiful!
Lori, 2-night trip

Beautiful property! The staff were very attentive, with excellent communication. Very relaxing stay, I’d recommend!
Lori, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I absolutely loved our stay at Rainbow Bend Resort! Our room was super cute with an incredible ocean view. The night sky was breathtaking, Mornings were just as beautiful with serene, calming views. The room was very clean and cozy (yes, the walls are a bit thin, but it didn’t take away from the experience). What really stood out was their customer service truly incomparable. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful.
Carolina, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Love the vibe. The property is gorgeous, with fishing, kayaking, and the pool. We loved sitting outside under the palm trees at night. The breakfast was delicious and the staff were great. 100% will come again.
