Room, Palm Partial Ocean View

This room has a partial ocean view that frames the Atlantic horizon. Amara Cay Resort sits on the oceanfront, sunrise side of Islamorada, so the water is part of the outlook. If you want the widest views, the resort's zero-entry pool and Lighthouse Beach sunning area offer open views toward Alligator Reef Lighthouse.

The room has 2 queen beds and sleeps up to 4 guests in 345 sq. ft. Each bed has a pillowtop mattress, Egyptian cotton sheets, a down comforter and hypo-allergenic premium bedding. It suits two couples, friends travelling together, or a family.
