If going to the Keys and golfing is a top priority you have to go to either Key West or Key Largo. They are the only two Keys that have golf.

You’ll find more and better golf in many other areas of the Florida “mainland” - places like Miami, Naples, Bonita Springs, Amelia Island, Boca Rotan to name a few.

I just left marathon in the keys last weekend. I’ve been going to keys my entire life stayed everywhere. This resort just opened up! It’s brand new! Absolutely gorgeous! Sunsets , tiki bar Oceanside, marina and spa and restaurant in gated property. Has 5 or six pools. No I don’t work for them lol! I just want to go back. Marathon is mid keys. You could drive to key west for the day and come back as well as drive to Islamorada iif desired. Keys is not the place to golf but to relax snorkel fish and have fun! The sombroro reef is a lighthouse 3 miles off shore that most the snorkel tour boats go to! I highly recommend. From this resort if you don’t want to spend resort prices for lunch or dinner there is a walkable restaurant I think it’s called sunset bar and grill. Spectacular sunsets off the dock live music and manateees were swimming around the dock the night we ate there. One hr jet ski tour was fabulous. We did not do tours thru hotel. Overpriced. We used Big Kauhuna Watersports 2 miles down the street. I’m 47 so I like the finer things in life and this place was five star all the way! I think the prices are pretty low for how nice the resort is due to the fact it just opened in January’s. I would take advantage of that!

Key West Golf Club is located on Stock Island, and might be where you want to look for a home to rent through VRBO.
