We have been staying at Tranquilo over the past 5–7 years, and we always enjoy our stay and truly love the tranquility of the hotel. This was the first time we’ve experienced any issue during our visits.

Unfortunately, the gentleman on duty Sunday evening placed a green parking violation sticker on my car even though our parking pass was clearly visible on the dashboard. That was definitely disappointing and unnecessary.

That said, I can honestly say this has been the only issue we’ve ever had here, and overall we have always enjoyed our stays at Tranquilo.

The hotel was clean, but it needs immediate renovation. Everything is outdated. Kitchen cabinets peeling off, dining table stained. It's a shame because the rooms are spacious, but they need to invest money on renovation. We checked in on a Friday and took the ferry to Bimini next day for a one day trip. When we came back at 11 pm our room door was open. Housekeeping brought towels and left the door open all day! Luckily nothing was stolen. Front desk staff said they were going to report it. Not even sure that means. Nothing else was said or done. Didn't even ask if anything was missing. Overall I can say the room and pool were clean

I had the worse experience at that hotel.
First they put me in a dark room all the way in the back. The refrigerator was in the bathroom and so old. I complained so they put me in another room. Much brighter and bigger but the furniture was terrible. The kitchen table all the paint was pealing the bottom of the table was black it looked like it was bought used. Then coming back that night I realized that the sheets were stained.
It’s just terrible I complained so they changed the sheets. The floors were old and walls not clean. Even going up the stairs to my room there was a bunch of dirt hair I dunno It was there till I left. I guess they are not even cleaning the property properly. I usually never write such a bad review but this time I really thought I had to. It really ruined my vacation in Lauderdale. Obviously I will not stay there again.

Don’t come to this stuip motel! Very dirty! When I checked in I found the toilet wasn’t even flashed. And the front desk agents said the housekeeping cleaned it before I came. I also found pee steins on bedsheet! And the overnight front desk agent was unprofessional he went to do something but then left the front desk empty! The afternoon shift persons told me I can check in later tonight

Terrible property. When we arrived, there was no hot water in the room. Staff came and checked it out and said they would let supervisor know. No one got back to us. The room smelled terrible...like they tried to use some kind of deodorizer to cover up other smells. Everything was old and very sparse. They also charged $10 for parking. The only positive thing was that it is located very close to the beach...just a couple of walking minutes away.

However, the rooms didn’t quite seem like the picture we had a couple of issues with the Wi-Fi was not working and it’ll work and then it wouldn’t be working overall it’s a great area. You’re two blocks away from the beach.

The propriety looks sort of like a prison. And it’s hard to tell it is a hotel because there doesn’t appear to be a sign. The room was clean and the bed was excellent. The staff were nice…when they were there. The office was always locked and we had to use a ring camera to rouse them. Most of the time they were coming from a different property, as if they don’t staff appropriately. I had to stand outside in the heat waiting for them to come back to assist me. But they were nice and allowed us late check out.

My room style was overbooked and I was originally moved to another of the sister sites which I was not happy with due to having other friends coming to Tranquilo, but they eventually upgraded our room so that we could stay together. The room was generally clean, just a little sandy on the floor. The air condition units in each of the separate bedrooms/ living room were run by separate remotes. We couldn’t find some of them. I requested at the front desk that they at least turn the temp down and they came immediately. Room had plenty of towels and fresh ones were brought each day. Each of the pools were clean.. Overall not a bad place to stay near the beach.

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL location very close to the beach and some restaurants. The high cost did not match the cleanliness of the rooms and resort though. If you're going to charge this much, your rooms should be spotless. I didn't feel like they were clean enough, and I have pretty low standards.

The place was in a great location in walking distance to beach and restaurants. The place was underwhelming. The room was a little banged up. Lots of chips on the tile floor, the cabinets in bathroom were in bad condition and the remote for the TV wasn't working properly. The staff was excellent and very accommodating. This place would be amazing if the owner put a little TLC into the property.

It was ok for a basic cheap motel. The bed was meh and had no support. The bathroom didnt have a fan and when you took a shower, you would have to open the window and expose your naked body so that the bathroom wouldnt be completely covered in water from the steam (yet it still was). The walls were kinda dirty too. Other than that, it was quiet when we went and the housekeeper ladies were nice and friendly. Had a pool that was clean and fresh towels in the lobby. Probably would spend a little more to get something nicer but if you are just passing through, its decent and close to the beach.

I had to pay extra to get into the room earlier than 3p, even though the room was ready. The property needs a lot of attention. The pools were a mess with debris all over. Once in the room, it was filthy. The floor, the walls haven’t been wiped down. The dust and hair on the baseboard was disgusting. The bathroom was run down. There was no hot water when I went to take a shower and when I called, 4 times, they sent someone an hour and a half later. Only for the shower head to leak while using it, so the shower was a trickle at best. I do not recommend this property at all. The only commendations are the girl at the front desk was nice , it’s a couple minute walk to the beach, and there are many restaurants that are in walking distance. There are many other places in the area that are much nicer and cleaner. I won’t be back.

Location is fantastic. It is quiet but only a few minutes walk to the beach and Main Street. The room has everything you need and the a/c unit works great. They accepted luggage check prior to check in so we could enjoy the beach that day. Highly recommend and great value. Also, the communication from the front desk via text message was very convenient.

The location is amazing, walking distance to the beach and super close to great restaurants and bars, which makes everything really convenient. The staff was also incredibly friendly, and the bed was comfortable, which I always appreciate.

That said, the rooms feel pretty outdated, even though some of the furniture has been updated. It just doesn’t fully come together. Also, not having curtains in the kitchen is kind of surprising and doesn’t make much sense.

Overall, great potential because of the location and service, but the rooms could definitely use a refresh.

We had a two queen bed studio with a small kitchen. The room was clean and well maintained. I chose this hotel for the reasonable rates, proximity to the beach and it's family friendliness. It met my expectations for the type of hotel it is. It's not a Marriott, Hyatt or Hilton so don't expect that and you'll be very happy with this hotel. I would definitely stay here again.

Where to start…?
We booked a last minute two night stay because of a storm that canceled our flight.
First, we were double charged for resort fee by both Expedia and the hotel, but that was later corrected by a more experienced employee.

Second, this “resort” is basically a motel. While the location is good and the pool was quite nice, nothing else about this place is inviting. People who have called the room dated are being very generous. The rooms are in terrible shape - door lock not working, kitchen sink was dripping into the cupboard and wetting the floor, living room light was flickers and thus unusable, window handle broken, walls are dirty and have water damage, barely any furniture (no closet at all), kitchen appliances and pots/pans are rusty and disgusting. The bright side - AC was very good and TV was smart.

Lastly, due to the storm we ended up only staying one night instead of two because our plans kept changing. No one entertained the thought of refunding us for the second night. So not only this was one of the worst hotels we ever stayed in, we paid for a night we didn’t stay.

Would highly recommend to avoid!

They said they had until 4 for checkin despite me showing them their correspondence. No compensation offered. No towels for pool, no toilet paper in bathroom change area. Once in room it was ok, not enough towels for each guest. Noisy through night outside room. Would not recommend.

The toilet mechanism failed in the middle of the night while we were sleeping and we woke to a completely flooded room. The staff told us this morning that they would call us and say what they could do for us… they never did…we just contacted them and they said we could only get a 20% refund for one of the rooms. Which is completely unacceptable. We want a 100% refund to make this right. The other room we booked was dirty and had stained sheets. In addition … upon our arrival we walked around the grounds for about 10 minutes with 2 staff members trying to find our rooms. They seemed uniformed about where the rooms were located. We are very dissatisfied with this property
