Experience The Best of Key West

History

This small island is full of intriguing historical sites and museums. Get your hands on real gold recovered from sunken Spanish Galleons and hear tales of the real Pirates of the Caribbean at the Mel Fisher Maritime Museum. Anyone with literary leanings will find inspiration at the home of legendary author Ernest Hemingway. It’s easy to see how some of America’s most iconic novels took form among the property’s tranquil gardens and peaceful atmosphere.

Fishing and Boating

Aquatic adventures abound in Key West. Hit the open water and reel in an unforgettable experience as you cast your line for tuna, swordfish, sharks and more. Even if you don’t land the big one, the thrill of the case will stay with you long after you’re back on shore. To really connect with the area’s diverse marine life, a paddleboard or kayak tour along Key West’s mangrove-lined shores will immerse you in this captivating ecosystem. Stock Island Marina is just minutes from the hotel and offers endless options for water activities.

Local Life

Maybe it’s remnants of the free-wheeling pirate lifestyle, the laid back hippie vibe of the ’60s, or a combination of both that give this island a spontaneous and whimsical charm. The best way to experience the authentic Key West is to dive into local life. Join locals, artists, food vendors and street performers at Mallory Square and soak in a spectacular sunset. Meander along quiet lanes draped in lush greenery and picture yourself watching the world go by from a hammock on the porch of a colorful gingerbread-trimmed cottage. Fort Zachary Taylor State Park is a favorite local hangout, has snorkeling spots just offshore and boasts one of the best beaches on the island. No matter your vacation style, Key West creates the ideal escape.

After Sunset

Key West’s legendary nightlife goes far beyond college parties and raucous cruises. Eclectic art galleries, historic theaters, and indie cinemas dot the island and make for a date night that’s far from ordinary. If Margaritaville isn’t on your playlist, you’ll find live music to suit any taste at one of the hundreds of bars and clubs on the island. Cozy up with an intimate performance at a piano bar or go for an eco-friendly night out at The Green Room. Stroll up Duval Street after sunset and take your pick from dozens of incredible entertainment experiences.
