Amara Cay Resort

The resort’s motto, 'Get your toes in the sand and a drink in your hand,’ sets the laid-back tone at this nature-orientated seaside rendezvous, with a casual elegance befitting its semi-tropical setting in the middle of the Florida Keys. Informal may be a way of life here, but Amara Cay keeps it classy.
