Nice stay at Hawks Cay
4/5 stars
By and large we had a very nice time at Hawks Cay. The accommodations were nice. We did feel the need to wash the sheets before using the beds though. We were somewhat disappointed that the wooden dock along the canal behind our townhouse was closed due to the poor condition of the structure. We did however spend some time on other canal docks in the resort so all was not lost. All in all in was a nice time with family and the accommodations were nice.
- Roy

"Thank you for sharing your feedback and for choosing Manatee Bay for your family time. We're glad you enjoyed the accommodations and the resort's amenities. We apologize for any inconvenience with the dock closure – your comments will be shared with the resort for improvement. We're pleased you had a nice time overall and appreciate your visit."

Lovely, Comfortable Hawks Cay Villa
5/5 stars
I was here with a girlfriend on an annual "girls" trip sans husbands and families! We have stayed in various Hawks Cay villas over the years and this was the loveliest of all. The unit was spotless, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable, and it appeared to have been recently painted. The management company was friendly and responsive both before and during our stay.
- Nancy

Nancy thank you for the review! We are glad you enjoyed your stay at Manatee Bay at Hawks Cay. We hope to host you again for your next annual girls trip to the Keys.
