The Galleon Resort Reviews & Ratings

Stayed in united B53 and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Units are nicely layed out, furnished well and clean. Pool area was well kept up and location was close to many restaurants and to the main street of Duvall. We highly recommend the resort. Staff was helpful and the resort is attended to. Parking was the only problem if you bring an automobile, however, you won't need it as everything is within walking distance.

I stayed Christmas week 2006. Location is perfect. Park your car here free and walk just about anywhere in Old Town. I stayed in a studio which is on the small side with no view, but it was clean and had a modest kitchen (no stove or oven, but good microwave and half fridge). Non-English speaking Staff offered clean towels and sheets almost every day, but no daily housekeeping service. The room had a safe that was big enough for my widescreen laptop. Wireless was available, but outrageously expensive and anemic , $60/wk. (Yachts in the Marina behind the building had wireless for $30/wk.) Outgoing phone calls are limited to 15mins before a 50cent/min surcharge so forget dialup internet. The Key Lime pie shop across the street has free wifi. Washer and dryer was available for $5/load. In spite of all the challenges, I would return here anytime. You just can't beat the location even if you have to overlook a few of their blemishes.

Stayed for a week from December 30th to January 6th, 2007. The location is amazing. The property is excellent. Can't say enough.

Galleon is a beautiful resort.Been there twice already and love it. Everything is right there to do. I would recommend anyone to stay there.

Stayed June 24 - July 1, 2006. Units are large in size with all the extras. Location is the best in Key West. You can be in the mix of downtown or be at a quiet beach or pool. We watched the sunsets from our balcony. Oceanside bar with lounge chairs over the water is a beautiful place to unwind at the end of a day of diving, snorkling, sailing, etc. Would not stay anywhere else in Key West.

As many others have said, this is the place to stay in Key West. We had stayed at four or five other places on the island, discovered the Galleon, traded into and rented there a few times, loved it so much we now own seven weeks. While our son is still in school, we rent several of the weeks in November and December, two of the best months weather-wise in Key West. When you stay at the Galleon, and if you are boater, rent a center console at Key West Boat Rentals, and head out to Boca Grande, and all the island mangroves in-between, or on a calm day fish or snorkel the reefs on your own. It is truly the way to feel like a local, and enjoy the sweetest asset of Key West - its' water.

Spent a week there Jan.21 to Jan.28,2006. Nice location. Unit not very cleaned. Maid changed sheets once during our stay, but no cleaning was done. Bathrooms where dirty. If, we stay there again, will comlain and make sure unit is up to par. The unit could stand to be updated.

We have owned for 20 years and haven't missed a year because we love everything about the place. Great location on the harbor and yet close to the old town. It's a tropical paradise without having to leave the good old USA. Minutes to Mallory Square and great restaurants too. Parking is tight but everyone gets a spot. Rent a small car if you need one.

Absolutely fantastic! Beautiful no matter what room you are staying in. Fun outdoor Tiki Bar. Have stayed there off and on for over 10 years.

We own 9 weeks at this world famous international/marina resort. We have owned for 25 years, we spend two months out of the year there, although we LIVE IN FLORIDA!

The Galleon has the most eye popping views to compare to anywhere in the world. The only place in the U.S. where you feel the tropical flavor of some foreign tropical island. Drop your suitcase in your two bedroom/full kitchen and enjoy the conch way of living. Mallory Square, Duval Street, Cruise Ships all less than 5 min. walk. Bicycle around the island; tour the cruise ship Truman annex, park your car and walk. Galleon has it all.

This will be the best vacation you have ever had. You may even end up buying there at the resales, although they are hard to come by. I have a unit for rent B-31 Week 12 up for rent for 2006 now and the only reason we are renting it in March is because we stay there in Nov./Dec in our other units. We were going to buy a home in Key West but found the Galleon was the only place with the best views! See my unit under rental section B-31 week 12 Joanne Jerome. Additional information on unit upon request.

Have been an owner for 2 years; just purchased another week. Best location in Key West -- is in walking distance to everything yet tucked away for some needed solitude. The front desk and service/cleaning crew could do a better job, but overall worth the price of admission.

Wonderful resort, close to everything. Although the parking is tight, leave your car parked and you can walk anywhere. Really don't need a car. Can't find better place to stay in Key West. We love it!

The Galleon is the best of all possible worlds in Key West. Close enough to Duval Street and Mallory Square for easy enjoyment, but tucked away on the marina, for nice quiet nights. The service is always outstanding, and the owners association is constantly upgrading the units and the common facilities.

The best location; in the heart of Key West. Within walking distance of all activities. The weather (in early January) was fantastic, and the views are fabulous. After renting for the week, I decided to buy, and am looking forward to next year.

there's no parking you can't get out because someone is park not in a space. unit wasn't clean well and when ask to fix anything never happen the whole week. pool was small and full all the time no chairs.

As they say: location, location, location. Right on the water. You can walk to any place in a matter of minutes. The deck and beach is screened from the street crowds.

Have been an owner for five years.

This is the best place in the whole world for warm water and fresh air!

We had an enjoyable and relaxing week with our children. Location is the key to this resort. I found that the flooring in the unit was very dirty even after washing the ceramic floor, thus indicating that the carpets were filthy. Parking is very tight, better off just leaving your vehicle parked and walking or renting scooters. We stayed in a 2 bedroom unit with a loft overlooking the marina and it was enjoyable sitting on the veranda and listening to music at night and the chatter of people at the restaurants in the Historic Seaport area.

Traded in here and ended up buying! This is the perfect location to be in Key West! Great location, private beach!

Units have recently been redecorated, most unit views are spectacular! Even the marina side with the boats and the Key West bight! Parking is very tight in the garage, rent a small car if you can of just keep the car parked for the week, you can practically walk to everything!

Owner since 1984. Great Scuba Diving, Shopping, Entertaiment, and great Pubs, Plus great eateries. Dont miss walking the Board Walk!- located at Galleon Resort and wraps around Harbor. You can walk to most every event. See Sunset at Mailery Square- Free, my kids love it.

Nice, well-kept property. Walking distance to most 'places of interest'. Nice boardwalk, pool/beach area, and outdoor stairwell 'greenspaces' on site.

Parking was 'tight', the staff was 'cool' in demeanor, and while helpful, somewhat slow to respond to maintenance requests.

The upper 3 bedroom units facing the marina are spectacular. But, if you trade in, don't accept a 'lock-out' unit unless you enjoy 'hotel room with a kitchenette' vacationing.

Location is key in Key West and this one can't be beat. Oceanfront, off the beaten path enough to be quiet, pool AND a beach, on-site Tiki Bar with afternoon entertainment (and a Terrific staff), sunset deck on the roof for owners, sunset pier away from the Mallory madness and crowds and after a while you get to know your fellow owners, some who've become lifelong friends! Plenty of rental income potential as well for the weeks you can't make it. Highly recommended.
