Sunset Key Cottages offers a delightful experience with its stunning sunset views and serene atmosphere, making it an ideal family vacation spot. The private island setting provides a unique escape, although the rocky beach might not be suitable for everyone.

While the island itself is beautiful and well-maintained, my stay at the resort was marred by several issues. The air conditioning in our cottage was insufficient, which significantly disrupted our comfort. The service left much to be desired, with slow responses and a lack of available maintenance staff. However, the overall setting is lovely, and I appreciated the effort put into the landscaping and natural beauty of the area.
