Resort is Old Florida Style! Surrounded by oak trees dripping with Spanish moss with a beautiful lake as your backdrop. Pontoon boat rentals, little store in the office. Staff is extremely friendly. It’s a true gem that brings you back to being on a lake as a kid. We will definitely be coming back for more weekend getaways.

The 1 bedroom I stayed in was very clean and was just perfect for me and my dog to have a little stay-vacation. This time of year the place isn’t even a quarter full which makes it very peaceful and serene. It is a nice shady hidden gem on a lake with a pool. The staff were very friendly and accommodating.

This place is a bit of Old Florida. It's had that charm of Old time lake vacationing. The rooms are clean and are set with a kitchenette. The property people are all friendly and eager to help you out if you need something. We will definitely be returning in the near future. Pool, basketball court, shuffle board, corn hole, fishing and pointing Pontoon boat rentals. Everything in one place to enjoy your stay.

This place was really cute and clean. Shibed was comfortable. I slept like a baby. The bathroom was big and we had a full kitchen. The people in this area are super nice. And so quiet there, You can't hear people coming and going. Nobody knocks on your door to bother you. It's amazing!

A real secret gem. Quiet, but just a short drive to Deland. Attractive lakefront; fishing and boating. We needed separate bedrooms and this was a great option. Cheaper than two rooms at other hotels, and simpler. We were looking for a quiet getaway in the area, and this was perfect.

What a hidden gem! Yes the property is older but it’s clean and has a beautiful view of the lake. The trees surrounding the hotel with the lake is true “Old Florida” We will definitely be going back to rent the pontoon for the day.

This is the second time staying on Lake Beresford and this place is just so peaceful with a feeling of camp cottages. Campfires, pool and pontoon boat ride were some of the activities they have available and we did them all. The rooms are comfortable. The kitchens are old but functional.

My husband and I stayed 3 nights. We were given 3 old but clean towels and 2 washcloths. The attendant told us to come back if we needed more. The office closes at 5 so after the second day we stopped in yet there was no one around. There is no housekeeping which was fine. The room was clean enough. Don't expect any extras. We had 2 spoons and 2 cups which was fine. We are used to camping and we just needed a place to sleep. The pool area was quite nice. It was quiet, It looked like a great place if you are a fisherman. Also, the laundry was out of service. It was a great location if you want some quiet time and still close to town and the highways. For the price it was a good deal

The pictures in the listing for this property are not representative of the "resort" - they are pictures of some other hotel, most likely many other hotels. These are pictures posted by the owners of this establishment. Very shady and borderline scam behavior. This property is WAY too expensive for what it is. The rooms are quite outdated and they don't look clean. We found old food on the floor from a previous stay and the bed linens were stained as well. We were very disappointed.

Tropical Resort and Marina is a quaint, friendly, old Florida property at the end of a dead end road, right on Lake Beresford. Love that the motel rooms offer a kitchen, a nice sitting area in a patio with beautiful, nature views. Lovely shade under Live Oaks and nice marina. Very happy that the rooms have smart TVs and WiFi was very good the weekend we stayed. The stove was a bit delicate because the knobs were replaced and I had be careful to make sure it was off. Minimal pans and nice, basic kitchen ware. Mini split AC was good. Only an 18 min drive to Blue Springs to see the manatees. We will definitely come back in the future and most likely bring our fishing boat. Thank you for a great stay!
