The Royal Plum Club worked great for our family vacation! We had six adults and one baby with us - me, my wife, our grown son, daughter-in-law, daughter, friend of the family, and our 8 month old grandson. Our condo overlooked the pool and ocean, and was clean, convenient & comfortable for the whole family. The club and the staff there are wonderful! Kevin, the maintenance manager, takes excellent care of the grounds, and was always there with a friendly recommendation on local activities & attractions. He even let me borrow some fishing gear to try an catch some barracuda I saw snorkeling out front! It was also great having the pool to cool off, especially after a day of adventuring. There is a deep and shallow end.
We rented a paddle-board and a few kayaks for three days from Wheels-2-Go (which were delivered) and had a blast with them! One morning we took the kayaks east to the end of the island (basically at the end of Coca Plum Dr), past the abandon mansion, near Curry Hammock State Park. We tied up the kayaks and did some snorkeling by the rocks there. The fish were beautiful and we even saw a number of very large lobsters!
It was nice to have the sandy beach area beyond the pool, but we didn't spend much time in the ocean there, other than on the paddle-board and kayaks. You'll find at this beach, and in may places in the Keys, there is quite a bit of sea grass - the natural habitat of turtles, and lots of the native sea life. That said, since the condo is in the Middle Keys, there are a number of beaches and state parks nearby, and both Key Largo and Key West are just an hour or so away. We took a day trip to Key West and spent an afternoon at the beach at Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park. That is definitely worth the trip! Water shoes are nice to have, since the beach has lots of shells, but the beach, shade and snorkeling there is great!
Here are some other places and things we'd highly recommend: The Island Fish Company, Sparky's Landing, Tarpon Creek Bar & Grill, Diving with the Abyss Dive Center, Snorkeling out at the Sombrero Lighthouse (a *must* for snorkeling lovers), and the Turtle Hospital!
All-in-all, the Royal Plum Club, staff and location was perfect for our vacation! If you're looking for a safe comfortable place - a second home, away from home - I'd highly recommend it!response / report this review -

Our stay there was amazing! We loved everything about it.
Our facility was beautiful and fully equipped with all you could possibly need.
The girls in the office were helpful and super friendly. The manager Kevin was very friendly and helpful as wella very hard worker. But always had a smile on.
The grounds were well maintained and beautiful!
Oceanfront. Private. Beautiful beach. Peaceful. Amazing staff!!
I daydream of my stay here! I can't wait to return!!response / report this review -

Facility is dated. Grounds are poorly maintained. Each of the condos in individually owned but the manager, Kevin, is pushy and arrogant. There are many better places to stay around Marathon. Especially with the new Hyatt open. Or try Indigo Reef.

We enjoyed the stay in the apartment which had two bed rooms, two bathrooms and a nice big living room with a balcony. It is right on the beach, a nice big pool with a deep end, about 8 feet deep. So you can easy check your snorkel gear and train the people in your group that have not a lot of experience in the water.

A mile and a half off the main road, The Royal Plum Club is a little piece of Heaven. There are no words to describe the beautiful views, the moon rises and sunrises, and the perfect location. The cost was half of any of the hotels and we had a two bedroom 2 bath with a screened in porch facing the ocean and the pool. Becky and Megan were also very helpful in advising us as to were to eat, shop, rent paddle boards and wave runners. If you have the opportunity don't miss a visit to this peaceful and beautiful place.

We rented two of the 2 bedroom condos in August 2015. The condos were amazing. Very spacious and clean. The natural beach was beautiful and kept very clean and wasn't crowded. The manager, Kevin, was very extremely nice and very helpful. They also have kayaks you can rent daily right there at the beach. Staying here made our vacation! We will definitely be staying again next year!
