Amara Cay is for the doers—the take-it-all-in, never-miss-a-moment crowd. It’s for those who do more than appreciate life’s little moments; it’s for those who make the moment. It’s the resort for the social. The initiators. The soon-to-be best friends. Amara Cay is a constant hum of laughter and conversation. It’s beer garden casual, island-style. Never rowdy. Never too loud. Refined but not uppity. Hip but not hipster. Always welcoming—inviting you to join in and satisfy your craving for more.
Meet for fluffy waffles and bubbly mimosas in our Lobby Dining Room, or grab your go-to espresso drink from Coastal Cup before heading out for the day’s adventure. (Some days, the plan IS brunch, and we’ve got an interactive take you’ll love.) With two restaurants and bars on property, plus in-room dining, you’re set for lunch and dinner dates, too. Our recommendation? Follow the hum of laughter and conversation to the Tiki Bar for cocktails. Then follow your craving to ReelCatch, where eats and drinks pair best with good company.
Eat + DrinkWhen you stay at one of the resorts in the Islamorada Resort Collection, you'll have access to explore the unique amenities, events, and restaurants of four resorts. Guests enjoy free shuttle service between each resort as well as nearby attractions.
Bring your friend group (or make a few new friends while you’re here). Gather the girls, or the family for that reunion you’ve been talking about. Treat yourself, and your guests, by celebrating your wedding or other event on-site. Even meetings are more engaging here. That’s because Amara Cay brings people together. Maybe it’s the tiki bar, the lawn games in the courtyard or our social spaces that invite you to wander in and join in. Whatever get-together you’re planning, we can help you curate the experience.
Plan a Get-Together“Love, love, love this place. Everything is pretty, well kept and clean. Palm trees by day & fire pit by night plus all the lawn games, pool, & tiki bar. Do yourself a favor & stay.”

“Highly recommended this hotel. No need to drive all the way down to Key West. Islamorada has so much to offer. This hotel is a true example of that.”
