Went here years ago and had a wonderful experience. The tour guide wasn't boring and so informative. While coming back from Key West with my father and young son we stopped on a whim. Definitely worth it and was incredible to see.

The castle was neat and it's interesting to see what the original builder was able to achieve by himself; however, the tours are extremely packed and rushed with barely time to take pictures much less actually enjoy anything.

When we arrived and bought our tickets we were rushed into a group already departing where we were treated like toddlers for being "late". The next 30 minutes we rushed from "sight" to "sight" without an opportunity to go back inside.

The site is much smaller than expected but it is superbly maintained and the surrounding grounds are beautiful.

Best part of the visit was meeting the security guard in the parking lot. Cool cat.
The tour was obnoxious at best. Our tour guide, Andrea, spent the entire time yelling at us, repeating exactly what we had just listened to from the video we were forced to watch. If she had been able to converse, it might have been better but I doubt it. Also, the video was so amazingly bad it’s almost worth watching for the cringe. Tickets are far too expensive. Save your money, go to the beach.

I just love this place and the history of it. I was here when I was a young boy and never forgot it. Was able to take my fiance, now in my older years. Its changed a bit with an updated colorful floor and since a hurricane damaged some things years ago, not everything works anymore. But still, a fantastic place to visit.

Experience began with a video that was long, may have seemed longer than reality due to the heat and humidity (Summer time). Once the video was done, the guided tour began where the guide literally just repeated the information from the video, but tried to add his humor, though not funny and just made the time standing in the sun longer. They did provide umbrellas to carry for shade, but due to number of people (about 15) and close space they kept us in for the outdoor tour, the points of the umbrella kept stabbing others so many stopped using the umbrellas. Weren't allowed to see the indoor quarters at all. Feel the experience would have been more worth the money paid (almost $60 for 3 adults) if they had just had the guides available for information and supervision stationed around the grounds and let people just look around on their own. Summary: hot, expensive and wish I had my $60 back. I saw and learned nothing that wasn't on the website, that I looked at in my air conditioned house.

A spontaneous road trip led me here today. What a great place with a cool history and funky vibe. The grounds and gardens are gorgeous. The castle itself is a true marvel of engineering. The story that inspired the castle is a sad but beautiful tribute to love. However, the tour guide Andrea, made the tour. She was so funny and engaging. She had me laughing the entire time. Definitely worth checking out.

Coral Castle was oddly intriguing. To wrap your head around how this guy (small in stature and build) was able to do what he did.mind blowing! You have to check this place out, seriously!

Fun and interesting but not worth the price of admission. This place is only really selling the 'mystery' of how a man built things that are pretty straight forward to build, even back in his day.

Cute tour at a very interesting location. The structures are very cool and the tour guide made it very interesting, giving stories for every structure. The story of the place is very interesting and I would recommend checking it out.

Short but informative. Great marvels of creativity sitting in the hood, what ashame. The good thing about it is, no one can steal anything because its too heavy.
