Location: Islamorada (Cheeca Lodge & Spa) vs Key Largo (Amoray Dive Resort)

Cheeca Lodge & Spa – Location

Cheeca sits at Mile Marker 82 on the Atlantic side of Islamorada with direct beach access and a long fishing pier.

  • 1,200 feet of private white-sand beach and a 525-foot fishing pier
  • On-site boat transfers and arranged excursions to nearby islands and reefs
  • Nearby walkable attractions include Florida Keys Brewing Co. and the MoradaWay Arts & Cultural District

Cheeca is a destination resort on Islamorada with broad on-site programming and beach access.

Amoray Dive Resort – Location

Amoray is a small waterfront resort in Key Largo, a short walk from John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park.

  • Address: 104250 Overseas Hwy, Key Largo, FL 33037
  • Within roughly 0.8 km (0.5 mi) of John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park per supplier listing
  • On-property opportunities include boat tours and easy access to local dive operators

Amoray’s location is convenient for diving and visiting John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park.

Rooms: variety and scale

Cheeca Lodge & Spa – Rooms

Cheeca offers a broad mix of room types and larger suites across a large property.

  • More than 240 rooms and suites across 27 acres (multiple bungalow, suite and oceanfront options)
  • Family-friendly room configurations and multiple oceanfront suites
  • Complimentary resort-wide Wi‑Fi and in-room amenities; parking and shuttle services available

Choose Cheeca when you want a wide selection of room types, family suites or oceanfront bungalows.

Amoray Dive Resort – Rooms

Amoray is a much smaller property with 31 individually decorated guestrooms and a range of studio and suite options.

  • Room types include Standard Room, Standard Double Room, Deluxe Studio, Studio Suite, Superior Suite and multiple oceanfront suites
  • Accommodations are straightforward and often targeted to divers and active travelers
  • Daily housekeeping and in-room conveniences such as coffee makers and cable programming

Amoray suits travelers who want compact, no-frills waterfront rooms near dive operations.

Dining & drinks: variety vs simplicity

Cheeca Lodge & Spa – Dining & drinks

Cheeca has multiple on-site restaurants and bars covering seafood, sushi, Italian and casual beach fare.

  • Atlantic's Edge (seafood/Caribbean) plus Nikai Sushi Bar, Mia Cucina (pizza/Italian), Pierre’s, Tiki Bar and 25 South pool bar
  • Breakfast, lunch and dinner options with live music and family-friendly venues
  • In-room dining available daily

If you want multiple dining choices without leaving property, Cheeca is the clearer match.

Amoray Dive Resort – Dining & drinks

Amoray’s supplier listing does not detail signature restaurants; on-site food/beverage options appear limited compared with a large resort.

  • Supplier listing highlights general amenities but does not name signature restaurants
  • Small-property dining tends to be simpler; guests also have easy access to Key Largo's restaurants off-property
  • Front desk hours are limited per supplier listing and multilingual staff are available

Amoray is focused on diving and waterfront access rather than a wide restaurant program.

Pools & beach or signature amenity

Cheeca Lodge & Spa – Pools & beach or signature amenity

Cheeca combines multiple pools with a long private beach and a prominent fishing pier.

  • Three outdoor pools: two oceanfront family pools plus an adults-only relaxation pool
  • 525-foot fishing pier with complimentary fishing gear as part of the resort fee
  • Wide beach (1,200 feet) and a saltwater snorkeling lagoon

Cheeca is set up for varied seaside recreation — lounging, family pool time, fishing and water sports.

Amoray Dive Resort – Pools & beach or signature amenity

Amoray provides basic pool facilities and direct waterfront access that supports diving and snorkeling trips.

  • Number of outdoor pools listed as 1 in the supplier listing
  • On private beach per supplier listing and easy access to boat tours and dive departures
  • Pool hours and detailed beach services not specified in the supplier listing

Amoray puts you on the water for dive departures; pool and beach facilities are modest compared with a large resort.

Wellness, nightlife & on-site activities

Cheeca Lodge & Spa – Wellness, nightlife & on-site activities

Cheeca’s on-site spa and activity roster are core draws for relaxation and active stays.

  • The Spa at Cheeca Lodge: 5,700 sq ft, six treatment rooms, adults-only lap pool, open daily 9:00 AM–6:00 PM
  • Sport facilities include executive 9-hole Jack Nicklaus course and six lighted sport courts
  • Live music, evening entertainment at Atlantic's Edge and the Tiki Bar

Cheeca is appropriate for guests seeking spa treatments, fitness classes and evening resort programming.

Amoray Dive Resort – Wellness, nightlife & on-site activities

Amoray emphasizes dive and boat activities over a broad wellness or nightlife program.

  • Scuba diving on site and boat tours listed among amenities
  • Bicycle rentals and ecotours available per supplier listing
  • Multilingual staff and a limited-hours front desk; detailed spa/nightlife info not published

Amoray is practical for diving and daytime water activities; it does not compete with Cheeca on spa or nightlife options.
