6 hotels · Updated February 2026
South Beach
The only resort on Key West with direct Atlantic Ocean beach access — a Hilton Curio Collection property with a distinctive Caribbean colonial design, three pools, a full-service dive shop, and 150 rooms facing the most swimmable ocean water on the island. The Rêve Spa and beachfront dining at their best here.
Key West Harbor
A modern boutique resort on the harbor designed with a zero-waste philosophy — solar panels, electric boat charters, and a marine conservation partnership — without sacrificing any luxury amenity. Three pools, a water sports center, and 96 rooms with harbor views make it Key West's most thoughtfully conceived newer property.
Old Town
Key West's most romantic address — a collection of four historic buildings connected by half an acre of private tropical gardens with a freshwater pool, koi ponds, and a 60-year-old bronze orchid collection. The 17 rooms are individually furnished with antiques, and the absence of TVs is a feature rather than an oversight.
Old Town
A Key West institution since 1968, anchoring the corner where Duval Street meets the Gulf with a private beach, full-service spa, and 142 rooms ranging from poolside cottages to Gulf-view balcony suites. The Chart Room bar — a wood-paneled mariner's bar that hasn't changed in 50 years — is where every Key West visit should begin.
Old Town
Key West's finest full-service waterfront resort sits at the foot of Duval Street with a private dock, sunset-view pool, and 100 suites facing the Gulf of Mexico — the preferred address for those who want resort facilities without sacrificing the soul of Old Town. The rooftop Hot Tin Roof bar is one of Key West's best sunset perches.
Old Town
A magnificent 1888 Conch Republic Classic House listed on the National Register of Historic Places, with wraparound verandas, a clothing-optional pool area, and 18 rooms that retain genuine period character. The location on Caroline Street puts Sloppy Joe's, the Ernest Hemingway Home, and the Historic Seaport a five-minute stroll away.
