Largo Resort

Beautiful!!! Best family vacation. Incredible week with everything that we needed. And the beds were amazing — an added bonus. Our family rented the main house and then ⁴⁄₆ of the bungalows. We had 22 total people including 11 kids ages 2yo — 18yo. Perfect location, amenities & private. Kids could run around safely. It was like our own private compound and it’s perfect for events such as weddings and big parties. We can’t wait to go back.

I’m hesitant to post a review because that means other people will find out about this place. It’s the kind of private spot you want to keep all to yourself.
We stayed in the most expensive option, the waterfront unit, which has a private porch that looks out over the beach and the bay. It was perfect. There is a beach area and dock with chairs and tables for all the guests to use but it was still very quiet and felt very private. We hired someone to come and give us a massage on the back porch of our unit with the wind rustling through the trees. Very cool. The grounds are gorgeous — lush and green.
It’s not fancy. But I would much rather give up some of the amenities of a chain hotel to stay here in this private oasis. The waterfront room has a small kitchenette. The overall room is a good size with a king bed, a desk, a chair, and the kitchenette. The private porch is a nice spot to eat a meal or two. The bed in our room was comfortable. The bathroom was dated, but was a good size and had great water pressure.
I feel like it was a great bargain for the money. The money we saved staying here was much better spent on the massages, glass bottom boat tour, and sunset sail. If we go back to Largo, this is where we’ll stay.

Von der Haupstrasse abgebogen und im Urwald gelandet!
Absolut coole Location, direkt am Wasser. Von den ca. 9 oder 10 Zimmern haben aber nur eins oder zwei Blick aufs Wasser. Die anderen befinden sich in kleinen Häuschen entlang der Zufahrt.
Alles war tiptop sauber.
Leider war es bei uns eher ein Regenwald, statt Urwald, es hat die ganze Nacht geregnet und das hat auf dem dünnen Dach getrommelt, so dass wir schlecht zum Schlafen kamen.
Man könnte noch gratis Kanus ausleihen, was wir bei dem Wetter nicht gemacht haben. Am privaten Strand (kein Sandstrand, sondern Steg) hat es eine (vermutlich) gemütliche Sitzgruppe. Ich denke, da gäbe es einen tollen Sonnenuntergang zu sehen, schreibt es mir dann…

We stayed at Largo Lodge for the first two nights of a honeymoon trip. We loved the atmosphere and appearance of this jungle paradise of a Hotel. The owners keep their amazing tropical garden grounds in an immaculate, natural and «wild» condition that makes you feel as if you are in your own private rain forest. This is not for the traveler that wants to be guided around for a resort experience. Additionally, this resort is not for children, which should be a bonus for adult travelers. This hotel is on the beach, bay side. They have a very charming water front dock and beach with chairs, and kayaks that you can take out. Try paddling over to the nearby Dolphin rescue facility, just a few hundred yards around to the right. One example of the charm of this hotel, is that the owners apparently keep a wading pool with feed at the waterside to help shelter a flock of Avocet birds that are there every morning. The rooms are also very nice and clean, and include «garden rooms» and some separate cabins. Strongly recommend!

If you’re looking for a resort that is going to pamper you with a poolside tiki bar and a spa, this is not the place for you. Turning into the driveway, you’ll wonder if you’re in the right place despite the fact that you just drove past their sign. It looks like a private residence with a heavily wooded stone driveway. It’s located close to everything you’ll probably need. Pennekamp State park is less than a mile away, as is a Publix and a liquor store. Lots of restaurant choices just up the road as well.
The whole motel only has 8 or 9 rooms and they’re pretty small, but they’re really nice. Most of them have screened porches. They all have flat screen tv’s (with only the most basic cable channels), microwaves, fridges, safes and are stocked with wine glasses, corkscrews and silverware. The rooms all have free wi-​fi and have enough bandwidth to stream netflix. Like the rooms, the bathrooms and shower stalls are a bit small.
What this place lacks in size, it makes up in beauty. There is a small garden with plants and flowers. The yard has decorations and cool lights that are turned on after sunset. Speaking of sunset — there is a jetty with enough lounge chairs and tables to accommodate all the guests as you watch the sun set in the distance. It’s not over water, but it’s still really nice.
Aside from lounging around, the only other activity that the lodge offers is the free use of their kayaks and their small launch.
The only complaint about this place is their beds. Sleeping on the floor might be more comfortable than sleeping on those things. I’m talking so uncomfortable that I almost considered docking a star off their rating.
If peacefulness and tranquility is more important to you than being waited on hand and foot, this is the place for you.
