What is surprising wonderful Little Jewel we found in the rainbow. I liked it so much. My wife and I booked Labor Day already. We asked for the same room that we had and we and they gave it to us. I had to spend the evening with some of my local friends. They all raved about the restaurant there the next morning I had breakfast, which was fantastic and all the guest I met raved about the meal they had the night before, so when you do stay here make sure you plan at least one meal that lady is wonderful.

Enjoyed our stay.
Enjoyed our stay at The Rainbow Bend. It’s an older place that has some areas for improvement but the property is great. The restaurant on premises didn’t look like much but after doing some research it sounds like it’s one of the better places in the keys to get some really good food.

The property and staff are amazing! Breakfast is included and cooked to order. The views from the private beach are breathtaking! The only gripes are about the thin walled rooms, you can hear your neighbors every move, and no conversation is private. The rooms have been nicely updated and modernized with new bathrooms, flooring, and paint. If I was not such a light sleeper I would go back.

Out of all of the properties we have visited, this has a beautiful location and I love that it was dog friendly. If I could suggest some things, I would suggest the property condos are spruced up a bit by paint and upgrading the furniture which would turn it into a 5 star for me. Also, the dining area was great and the service was phenomenal, however, coffee cups were tiny and the food was not good. If I were to suggest just putting in a continental breakfast with a waffle maker, that would be better because after trying it the first day, we didn't even want the free breakfast. Or, you could upgrade the food to a better quality and even charge, but the free breakfast was not even hotel free breakfast quality. The pool and hot tub were beautiful and well kept as well as the grounds and they offer glass bottom kayaks and bikes. Great amenities for the area. The blankets needed upgrading as well, so upgrade the lotion, soaps, furniture, blankets and pillows and paint the walls and base boards and use a great odobon cleaner or something because dogs pee in the units obviously and you have a 5 star property. The staff was also top notch I just know that I have puppies and we will be coming back to the keys and this could be so much more with those small upgrades. Thank you for a wonderful time to everyone who works there.

4/10 Fair

So let me start by saying that we have stayed here before., and had a wonderful time. My wife just had her 2nd birthday beating leukemia and this was how she wanted to celebrate. We traveled from Philly area starting at 4:30 AM and got to Rainbow bend around 3:30 after a nice stop at bass pro for lunch and shopping. when we tried to check in we were told the room we reserved was not the one we were getting. she (Jeanette) stated we reserved thru Expedia, and that was the issue. I told her we also called the lodge to confirm. She was not hospitable at all! She wanted to put us in a room facing the road. I asked if there wass one facing the ocean and her response was if there is it may cost more and we would have to pay for it! this woman should never be allowed to talk to guests. Her response was - she was having a bad day. I told her to get over it and solve the problem, She had a crappy attitude so i got right back at her and she asked if we wanted to cancel our reservation. At that point my wife (the reasonable one) asked to see her manager. The manager (owner) came and got us into a very nice room facing the beach. the beach is very nice with corn hole games and kayaks. the grass in the water is a bit smelly and totally not swimmable. the pool was very nice and always clean. it is a nice place but i don't think at this point we will be back. If you go, call the place and schedule directly with them.
