The Key Largo Holiday Inn
An Insider's Guide
The Key Largo Holiday Inn is a popular spot for visitors who want to experience one of our Key Largo hotels in style. It is located at MM 100 in what many consider to be the town centre of Key Largo.
The Holiday Inn provides easy access to activities like offshore and backcountry fishing, diving, and snorkelling as well as being a comfortable setting to relax and dine.
Location and Setting
The Holiday Inn at Key Largo is about 65 miles or about a 1 hour and 15 minutes driving from the Miami International airport. To get here from the Ft. Lauderdale airport you’d need to allow an additional 30 minutes of drive time.
This hotel has been created in a style that reflects the luxurious tropical setting of Key Largo, with palms and thatched-roof cabanas surrounding two sparkling blue swimming pools and a jacuzzi. With over 130 rooms at the hotel and a social layout and atmosphere, the Holiday Inn is a great setting to meet other holiday-makers who share your interests. Several other hotels, bars, and restaurants are within an easy walk without having to cross the very busy US1 highway.
The rooms themselves are ideal for single travellers, couples and families, with every room having a minimum of a king-size or two double beds.
Dining Options
Bogie’s Cafe is the on-site restaurant at the Holiday Inn, providing opportunities for dining inside or outdoors in the tropical breeze. Bogie’s is open all day to enjoy any meal in the open air poolside or to have items from the menu brought directly to your room. The Tiki Bar, located in the pool area, also allows you to enjoy an evening drink and soak up the scenery of the swimming pools and tropical gardens.
Other Features
The hotel also boasts a fitness centre loaded with modern equipment for your cardio or weight training needs. Many people indulge a little when on vacation—but if you’re a fitness fanatic, the gym will help you maintain your shape even while you relax in paradise.
Each room also contains the essentials of a luxurious lifestyle, including cable television, a coffee maker and a small refrigerator.
Nearby Attractions
There are plenty of attractions within a short distance of the Key Largo Holiday Inn that will keep you busy during your stay. The most popular of these is snorkelling and scuba diving—after all, Key Largo has a reputation as one of the best dive locations in the world.
For those who don’t like the idea of getting in the water or who want a more passive and relaxing holiday, there are plenty of other options that will allow you to stay dry. Land-lubbers will enjoy just taking a chair poolside and cooling off with a beverage of your choice.
You can also see local reefs via the glass bottom boat located right at the Holiday Inn marina or opt for an eco tour of nearby Everglades National Park. The glass bottom boat tour is obviously not for those who get seasick easily—but for those with the stomach for it, seeing the ocean through the bottom of a boat is a stunningly beautiful experience.
Visitors looking to sample the incredible local fishing will find numerous offshore and inshore fishing vessels right at the hotel marina with trips leaving daily. You can spend less by taking a place on the party boat or enjoy your own private excursion by chartering a smaller boat for your family.
