Chokoloskee Island hotel rooms a the Independent

"The best place "

"The rooms are nice and clean, and the pool is one of the best we’ve seen at a small resort! "

"This is a somewhat difficult place to give an accurate review. We were given instructions with a code to enter our room. I attempted the code several times with no luck. I reread the instructions and the next paragraph (which I had not read) said to ignore the above instructions and go to the front desk. The front desk had a hard time finding my reservation and when he found it, he handed me a regular old-fashioned key. I asked for a second, he told me no. The room was straight out of the 60’s. It did have a smack kitchenet that looked fine. Everything was clean in the room and the hot water was good. The air conditioning was fine and there were plenty of towels. Breakfast was the smallest I have ever seen. Nothing hot, not even a toaster. The pool was large and clean and there were plenty of pickle ball courts. The bar and dining opened at five. The menu was extensive and the dessert that they said were made in house, were exquisite. The food was equally good, apart from the escargot which was marginal. "
