Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Jane the manager was always quick to respond to me whenever I contacted her even though they were having wifi issues. When we arrived to our cottage, we had #7, we opened the front door to the freshest smell of CLEAN! No chemical smells like you would expect from a dog friendly resort where deep cleaning is necessary, but instead everything just smelled fresh and clean. Our entire cottage was immaculate and stocked with everything that we could need besides groceries. They even provided a little welcome gift of wine and water bottles and fresh flowers were everywhere. They have literally thought of everything to make your stay with your pets the best ever. There are dog water bowls everywhere and the dogs and humans too can walk right in to the crystal clear water. The owner Raymond lives on property and is the sweetest man you will ever meet and his little dog Mr. Fred is the property mascot. We have already booked our stay for next year, can't wait to back to Paradise!

I fall more and more in love with White Gate Court each year I visit, this being our 5th year visiting I am always so amazed. Where to start... the location is great, it's so quite(which I love❤), the cottages are fully functional complete with fridge/stove tops/coffee maker/toaster/silver ware/personal BBQ grills. The same housekeeper has been there since we starting visit and she is awesome... I greatly appreciate her, hands down a hardworking lady!! The staff always provide the best experience, they are always working so hard, keeping up on providing fresh linens, maintaining the grounds, constantly cleaning, verifying needs are met, all while respecting guest's peace and privacy. The beach is such a great place to relax and watch the water and swim, the nightly fires at the beach are a wonderful touch. Jane the manager has a special place in my heart, she is so very thoughtful and truly makes sure our stay is the best. Being from central Ohio and having no ties to the Keys I feel lucky to have found this place, I will always choose White Gate Court for my vacation. I appreciate the hospitality that is shown and want to thank you all so much for all you do!!

My wife and I stayed here Sept 2021 with our close friends in rooms 4 & 6 for almost a week. We both brought our boats and the dock is fantastic and well laid out/equipped with an amazing 5-10 min run to either channel north or south. Excellent swimming area right by the dock for the dogs as well (just be careful walking down the entrance ramp to the water) White Gate is the most dog friendly place I've stayed in the Keys. The rooms were very well equipped, clean with the perfect Old Keys Charm that we like. The location and landscape is phenomenal with everything you might need from Bikes, kayaks, swimming floats/toys, Ice machine, grills, shaded tables and sitting areas, amazing dog walking area, boat trailer parking, etc... The hosts, owners and the entire staff of White Gate Court are 1st class, very kind ,very friendly, we felt like family our entire stay there. Amber and I plan on being back much sooner than later,

Thank You to the Entire White Gate Court Family,
Shane & Amber Lemley Stuart, Florida

If you like small private places where you are at peace and enjoy fishing, snorkeling and having your pet with you, then this the place to go!.
Jane will help you book the right property for you and answer all your questions. I love her!
Been here about 3 times in the last 10 years. After the hurricane in 2018 they added a tiki hut and you have plenty of space in one of their cottages.
I've personally stayed on the big one and the 2 smaller ones close to the water. Their kitchenettes are fully stocked and you can cook or bbq outside (whatever you catch you can also clean it on the spot and cook it!).
They have kayaks but I would suggest taking your paddleboard. You can also come with a boat.
They are clean and convenient. You won't find super modern furniture or appliances (except microwave and coffee maker) and the have a stove top but it's plenty for a 4-day or 1 week stay.
We always take our cooler with supplies but now there's a publix nearby so no need to worry.
They have good beds but I suggest you take your own pillows if you usually have issues with that wherever you go.
Their facilities are clean (they even change your grill covers after each use) and you can park you car next to your cottage.
I recommend packing some off or mosquito repellant (sandflies is an issue in the keys).
I love that I can always take my furbaby with me. They provide towels for your dog as well and towels for the beach.
In the beach area now they have plenty of seating and umbrellas (but you can take your if you want).
You also have your own sitting area with bbq and citronella torches in each cottage.
If you like a quiet, non-crowded place where you can forget all your worries, enjoy nature and just relax, this is your place!.

My husband and I just returned from a 5 day vacation here with kids and grandkids. We have been here before with them and always love coming here because it is a quiet, small, private resort with many nice amenities. We all bring our boats which we can dock at their private dock. Great access to waterways and reefs. They have a private beach, and kayaks, paddleboards, and tubes that are available at no charge to guests. You can swim, scuba, snorkel and fish off the beach and the docks. The 7 efficiency cottages are clean, well supplied and you can cook your own meals inside or on the gas grills provided outside each cottage. Its a wonderful family atmosphere where pets are welcome. The management is outstanding and always available if needed.

My husband and I stayed a week for our anniversary and it was so beyond wonderful. All preventive measures were taken in regards to covid-19, I had no worries at all. Everything was sparkling clean when we arrived, a quick stop at the grocery store and we had everything we needed to maintain a low-key getaway during this pandemic. Between the kitchenette and grill we were good to go.This place is phenomenal, the grounds are well kept and the beach and dock are so peaceful. I sincerely appreciate all Jane has done for us the past several visits, she is definitely top notch!!! Our house keeper was so very courteous and did a wonderful job everyday making sure we had plenty of essentials. Always on the last day of my trip I am planning my next return, I love White Gate Court and the amazing people who make the place the BEST!!

Sadly we learned Jane passed away just recently. For 16 continuous years we had been loyal customers in Villa 7 during lobster mini-season. We were always asked before we left if we would like to have Villa 7 again for the next years mini-season. We always said yes and we said yes again at the end of the 2022 mini-season. We told Jane we were coming back and she said we have the first right to the unit. So here it is February of 2023 and we were expecting to have Villa 7 as usual. I had not heard anything so I called and spoke to Mayra. I was informed Jane had passed away and Villa 7 was already promised to someone else. Needless to say I was and remain furious that this new management team did not reach out to long time customers. Now the new management will not honor the commitment they made to me and my family. In addition to their lack of detail around reservations, the new management takes no action on dock control. There was always a standing policy of bow in/stern out docking. Now it is first come first served with most boats taking two or three dock spaces by side docking. This has resulted in arguments amongst those docking boats. The management does not instruct new comers on how to do bow in/stern out docking. The boaters do not come with the ropes or protective bumpers they need to dock properly. One year the Cargnelli family (the owners) asked us to do a favor and take their nephew, visiting from Italy and working at the resort for the summer, out lobstering as they felt he would be safe with us. We did this, using our time, boat and gear to make this young man have a more fulfilling Keys experience. He came back to the dock all smiles with a six bag limit. Now they just throw us under the bus. So Goodbye WGC, and a special goodbye to Raymond who was very helpful and enjoyed the wine we would bring every year.

My husband And I, along with our doggies, stayed at White Gate these last 5 days. It’s about our 8th time going and it keeps getting better each time. This time we took our pontoon boat. We were able to dock it right behind our cute cottage. Easy access to the Bay and the ocean. Fishing, snorkeling and swimming were amazing. We even had a doggie birthday celebration for the owners dog, Fred. He turned 5. The staff was great as usual. We felt comfortable staying there during this time. The cottages were spotless, signs posted for social distancing and masks worn when necessary. The fact we had our own private beach made it even more welcoming during this pandemic. We felt like this was a true getaway without a worry in the world. Would highly recommend to dog owners, boat enthusiasts, and anyone looking for A relaxing, peaceful time in the Keys! Below are a few pictures of our vacation.

What a serene location! We absolutely loved the calm atmosphere, the friendly staff, and all of the amenaties! Snorkeling (lots of fish to see), kayaking (plenty of boats and paddels availible) , grilling (very clean), swimming (high tide was perfect!) , or just plain ole realxing ocean side; we loved how much there was to do just a few steps from our room. Also a fantastic place to bring pets, and one of the few pet friendly rooms I’ve found. The room was also immacualte and we really appreciated having cleaning service and laundry services available! We really enjoyed our time here and we look forward to returning!
