Default Key Largo, where to stay ???

We have all the trip plans made just don't know where to stay in Key Largo?
So far we have Key Largo, Marina DelMar.....

Just want some info to make sure it is a nice place to stay for a couple nights.
Thanks

I don't know all the names/places/locations, but make sure you have plenty of water in the marinas where you will be stopping. Some of us have found out the hard way how shallow some of them can be at low tide.

Your taking a boat.. We stay in Islmarado..(sp) just about 10 minutes south of Keylargo.. We found a house... Slept 10 couples $2500 week.. $250 a couple for a week. We trailered down the boats and lived like Kings... Not sure what your plans are but You probably could find a nice house,condo pretty cheap to lay your head!!
When I am in my office tomorrow, I will look up some things from our past trip and forward them to you...

Good luck... I won't be in FL to the Sarasota Opener in March...
Your so lucky!!

I agree the Marriot is nice. Marina DelMar isn't much.

PenneKamp is good. Cheap and safe but is a decent walk to anything outside of park. Marina Del Mar is ok, more expensive but lots of stuff around.
