Opal Key Resort & Marina
Particularly popular with foodies, couples, nightlife lovers and located at the doorstep of Mallory Square – Key West’s most iconic gathering place – Opal Key Resort & Marina is a destination buzzing with style and spirit. For those who crave dynamic energy and front-row access to Key West’s nightly sunset celebration, this is the place to be – especially since the property recently renovated its lobby, pool area, and on-site restaurants. That’s especially true in the spicy new dining outlets unlike anything else in Key West, starting with Lolita’s Coastal Cocina, an upscale Mexican restaurant where bold flavors meet sleek ambiance.
Dine indoors under the colorful bar mural or head out to the all-new Lolita’s Pier Bar, perched over the water with unbeatable views and fresh ocean breezes. The new pool bar, Ka’Teen, is the place for cool drinks under swaying palms, perfect for midday lounging. But, perhaps most exciting, the new rooftop deck, Elevate Skye Bar & Lounge, serves up lofted views of that famous Mallory Square sunset from a variety of sophisticated seating options, including the wraparound bar, high-top tables, couches, loungers, and even private day-bed cabanas (rentable for resort guests only).
Sunset Key Cottages
Tucked away just 500 yards off the coast of Key West, Sunset Key Cottages, is a private island sanctuary accessible only by ferry. This 27-acre retreat remains a well-kept secret, offering barefoot luxury and unmatched privacy in a lush tropical setting. Palm-lined pathways wind through pastel-hued cottages that pair island charm with residential-style comfort.
Mornings begin with a basket of fresh pastries delivered to the doorstep. Days unfold at each guest’s own pace – sip a cocktail at Flipper’s Pool Bar, swim in the zero-entry pool, lounge on the private sugar-white beach, or slink away to on-site Opal Spa. As the sun begins to set, guests and locals flock to Latitudes, Sunset Key’s acclaimed waterfront restaurant. With refined coastal cuisine and some of the best sunset views in the world, it is a culinary experience that defines the island’s magic.
Don’t pass on the Key West Shrimp Quesadilla for lunch or the Key West Pinks on the Dinner menu.
The Laureate Key West
Taking inspiration from the laid-back lifestyle of Key West’s famous mid-century literary heavyweights – Ernest Hemingway and Tennessee Williams – The Laureate is ideal for travelers who like to stay awhile and travel on their own terms. This all-suite hotel features full kitchens, spacious living areas, and bayfront views, all just a short drive from the heart of Old Town.
The Laureate is designed for extended stays and group gatherings (grocery delivery through the resort is also available so your kitchen can always stays stocked). Plus, guests enjoy exclusive access to pool and tiki bar at sibling Opal, The Capitana, just a mile away.
The Capitana Key West
Overlooking Key West’s bay, The Capitana is a boutique retreat inspired by the famous shipwrecks that dot the shores off the Florida Keys. Not only do you see that in its name (it’s named after the famous shipwreck from Spain’s 1733 Armada known as “La Capitana”), but in the way the island-inspired hotel suddenly appears like a tropical oasis and serves as the perfect anchor for exploring the colorful and storied town of Key West, whose history goes far deeper than Hemingway, Williams and former President Harry Truman’s “Southern’’ White House.
Guests of The Capitana stay in a suite – or opt for a spacious two-bedroom/two-bath cottage ideal for families or friend groups. Many accommodations come with bunk beds and full kitchens. Grocery delivery service means the fridge can be stocked before guests arrive.
