The view and location on the beach was great, however the property is older, for a property that charged $500 per night, we expected more. I asked for bottled water and was told I would have to go down the road to a store to purchase, no snacks available, very basic toiletries and towels etc. Nothing wrong with that, if the price point was better.

A Middle Keys GEM!
From the minute we walked in the front door we felt like we were home. The welcome was warm and friendly, and very accomodating! While we were several hours early for check in, we waited at the Havana Jack's restaurant next door, and to our surprise the room was ready very quickly! The room was fresh smelling, spacious, clean, airy, and they offered refillable Shampoo, Conditioner, and body wash in the roomy shower(no more plastic bottle waste). The fridge was big enough for our drinks and the ice bucket (anyone who's been to the Keys knows nothing stays cold)! The view of the Atlantic, the perfect little beach, and pool with comfy padded chairs made us so happy! We said we wanted to get in the hot tub, but never did as it was a bit cool and rainy.

Mixed feelings about Glunz! We only got to stay one night but if we had had time I'm not sure we would have really liked to. The property was beautiful, staff were awesome. There's some signs of weathering from ocean air but nothing awful. The main problem was we splurged for a room which opened out right onto the beach (which was absolutely beautiful. I wish it had been warm/sunny enough to get in), and wanted to keep the sliding doors open but a couple of times someone was smoking somewhere and the smell came into the room and then was so hard to get rid of. Also for >$800 a night I wasn't expecting one of the chairs to have a large stain and significant signs of scuffing/wear. Otherwise very clean though. The restaurant could be a little loud but they stopped the music pretty early, and there was a really nice fire pit going for late-people to enjoy. The redeeming factor too was they sent a message requesting feedback and when I mentioned these things, I expected a usual "Thank you for comments we'll take into consideration etc." but it seemed like a real human being read them and responded specifically. So would we go back to Glunz? I think we would give them another try. Especially if they designated one building non-smoking or something. You can very quickly fall into relaxation and the peace of the ocean and would love to catch a better warmer week when kids could actually just run out and play on beach/water. The heated pool was excellent though!
