“The Port Hotel And Marina captures a certain authentic charm, making the most of its prime waterfront location on Kings Bay, where you can genuinely witness manatees swim by from the rooms. While the property shows its age, the direct marina access and on-site restaurant that itself sits right on the water provide a grounded, appealing experience.”
