Age of Facility/Any Hurricane Damage

I'm just interested in finding out if anyone has gone to this resort recently. I'm interested in going to Orlando, Florida with my husband followed by a week in Key West (4/12 thru 4/19/08) provided someone puts their week into Redweek's new point system. What is the age of the facility and has it been maintained? Has there been any hurricane damage? If so, has it been repaired? Thanks for any help.

I don't know how old the Galleon is but we just returned three weeks ago from a two week stay. This was our second vacation at the Galleon, and we absolutely loved it. It is a perfect place for families with children because the large condos have full kitchens and washers and dryers, but the "lockouts" for two are also very nice. Beautiful views, great location (probably the best in the Island--we don't like the Atlantic), unbelievably comfortable beds, excellent Internet service, etc. Key West doesn't get too many hurricanes, but there is no evidence of hurricane damage anywhere on the island, and I have walked the entire island in every possible direction.

The last time a hurricane came through there was some roof damage and it is being taken care of in the next several months. The Galleon also has Hurricane windows/shutters which allow for extra protection. The staff stay on the grounds of the Galleon during a Hurricaine and attend to damage as it happens or right after. This is why the resort is in wonderful condition. Kudos to the resort staff!!
