Key West (FL) hotels & places to stay

The 24 North was a lucky find for us and exceeded all our expectations; the cleanliness, bar, relaxed atmosphere, pool and gym, and location we’re all ideal for us to explore Key West. The hotel sits on ‘Rooster Row’, which is fairly aptly named, and shared a shuttle bus into Key West town with 3 other hotels adjoining. This goes every hour until 3pm, then every 20 -30 minutes until 11pm. Although there is no on site restaurant, the bar serves food and there is a converted Air Stream onsite called ‘The Blind Pig’, serving breakfasts, lunches and dinners out on the lawn. I would definitively recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to explore Key West.

Pros: Quiet resort Multiple pools Great marina views Extremely friendly housekeeping staff Spotless bathroom Beautiful blue and white decor Cons: Some buildings face oil tank reserve for Keys (so ask for good view) Shuttle to Key West only runs from 9:00 AM - 9:35 PM.

The Casa is indeed a great place to relax on the beach and get a tan, swim in the pool or play in the sand. The hotel is clean and the rooms could be better, but its Key West after all. The beach is not great for swimming unless you have swimming shoes, due to the rocky nature. There was also lots of seaweed. There are only a few beachfront hotels in Key West, so the Casa is almost in a league of its own in terms of real estate. Roosters will awaken you at 5:30am each morning? Dont ask why.

It is difficult to find reasonably priced hotels on Key West, and this hotel is no exception. But at the Key West Doubletree, in February 2019, we had a room at a *relatively* good price. The rooms are large and clean. The swimming pool is exceptionally pleasant, surrounded by palm trees, clean and warm, with unlimited towels. We enjoyed it every day. Breakfast was average, with all the standard ingredients except waffles. Priced at $15 per person, that breakfast was reasonable. Parking is plentiful, and their shuttle service (to/from downtown) is frequent enough (once per hour from 8:00 am to 11:00 pm). The staff is friendly and well-trained. Frozen cocktails at the bar are $10-14 which is the same everywhere else on Key West. They offer free umbrellas at Smathers Beach, but Smathers Beach itself is not a place to swim. It's merely a place to sit and walk. (My favorite beach on the island is at Fort Taylor, but you'll need wet shoes due to rocks mixed with the sand underwater).

I booked here the first time for my mom Big Birthday. We arrived pretty late like 10pm, but its no trouble at all for check in. Room was in decent shape, 2 Queen Beds with basic needs, coffee machine, TV, Free Wifi and Free packing. It's a great place for staying, we were basically out whole day. quiet and I love there's a big pool, no time to try but it seemed pretty nice. Will come back and will recommend for a stay in Key West. Remember it's not close to downtown, better with your own transport.

My husband and I were looking for a higher-end relaxing hotel experience in Key West. When we got to the hotel to check in we were hit with an additional $60 a day for "resort" and parking fees, neither of which were included in our final booking price. This was quite upsetting and we were eventually able to get them to remove it but only after a lot of stress. Our "garden view" room had views of a parking lot, a bunch of exhaust fans, and a very busy street (Duval). Absolutely no garden. We were lured in to this place by the picture of the long dock with beach chairs stretching out into the ocean. It looked very peaceful, tranquil and relaxing. The reality of this place was much different. It was not relaxing at all. There is loud music blasting everywhere and rowdy guests. We might as well have been at the Jersey shore. If you want spring break for adults then this is a great place for you. It was not quite the vibe we were looking for.

Freshly renovated Parrot Key was a delight for our family of four. Our suite was light filled, decorated with a modernish islands flair, and very clean. A lot of details were smartly thought through, right down to plush bath towels and robes, and bath sundries by L'Occitane. All units face a lushly landscaped courtyard featuring 4 pools, each in it's own little leafy world. The luckier guests also have water views in the other direction. On-site watersports center rents jet skis, paddleboards, sea kayaks, and bikes. The only hitch is the location: There's a Home Depot across the street and a Walgreens next door. None of that is apparent from inside the resort but busy Roosevelt Drive is unavoidable to reach the old sections of Key West.

We really liked this hotel. The pool was awesome, the food truck and drinks were really good. Employees were very friendly. They had a shuttle to Duval street every hour which was great and free parking which is big in Key West. The only downside was we got a handicap room (but it was in a great location) and one day they were really late in cleaning the room - we had to call them at 5:30 or 6:00pm. Would definitely stay there again.

I had such a great time at The Perry hotel this past weekend with my husband and my son. The hotel is so beautiful, the decor is gorgeous, and the pool and the outside area are breathtaking. The rooms are very modern and super nice. We had a room with a balcony facing the pool and the view was spectacular. The staff is so friendly and professional. I cannot say enough good things about this hotel and the staff. My stay was so pleasant. I think it has to have been the best hotel stay I've ever had. The food at the on site restaurant is also very good, we had brunch at the Matt restaurant and it was very delicious. The crab benedicts were great. I can't wait to go back!

Good value for the money. A least you get more than towels for Resort Fees. I am no fan have resort fee and they should be banned because too many hotels charge you resort fees for towels, use gym, pool and internet the basic you get before resort fees. At least Fairfield Inn & Suites Key West resort fees you get a free RT shuttle service to tourist spot in Key West, 2 free drinks, ice cream and of course internet and free towels. The staff was very friendly, rooms are clean, swimming pool was nice and I love the roosters and chickens running around the grounds.

Setting is fab. Bar area great, with hammocks. Pool is small and could do with a net nearby. Jacuzzi lovely. Rooms are small but very authentic. Could have done with a kettle. Free drinks in lobby and at happy hour. Free coffee, iced tea and water and free sun cream and insect repellant - both essential. Staff very human, quirky gift shop. All good. 10 minute walk to Finally St.

Definitely not worth saving money to stay here- it was very dirty, the ladies dormitory bathroom was full of cockroaches, there were only about 4 working outlets in the room, and the single ac unit failed to keep the rooms cool. There was not enough parking so cars had to park on the street- the attendant said it was fine but a guest told us that the cops will tow cars for parking on the street. Do not recommend this place.

It was my third time to stay over the last 8 years. It is next to a dance club so you must take that into consideration when it comes to the noise level. If you are staying there is it really to be in the heart of Key West. However the rooms are nice and the staff are very friendly so that is of course a plus. Having a back bar and pool makes for a good time and a back cafe. Also conveniently located next to tons of quick food or restaurants.

Hotel is conveniently located near the entrance of Key West. There is a hotel shuttle that drives you every hour to town and a restaurant on premises overlooking the bay. Beach in the back has hammocks and is so relaxing.Also, you can rent kayaks right in front of the hotel which was an awesome time. Only complain was no closet available in the room or room safe. Everything else was ok for the price. I would rent here again to
