The hotel

Tucked away on the small secluded island of Duck Key, this is your private slice of paradise. Think swaying palms, saltwater lagoons, and five glistening pools, perfectly paired with laid-back island vibes and upscale comforts. The hotel's commitment to the environment is as strong as ever - with a dolphin connection programme, so you can learn all about your stunning marine surrounds before you explore them in person. Relax in the spa or at the adult-only Oasis Cay if it's just the two of you. Or if you're with all the brood, they can let loose in the pirate ship pool. The hotel offers options right up to waterfront villas, so whoever you're travelling with, there's something for everyone. And from sunrise yoga to sunset cocktails, all your Florida Keys wishes can be met.

Love this bar! Amazing vibes! We were in the resort celebrating our 5th wedding anniversary. We mentioned it casually chatting with the bartenders Jacob and Mehmet on our first night and they made sure our stay was super special and fun. If you’re there, be sure to look them up!

The tiki bartender was amazing! Not only were the drinks beautifully crafted and full of flavor, but the presentation and attention to detail made the whole experience unforgettable. The energy, friendliness, and passion for mixology really stood out—every cocktail felt like a work of art. Thanks to Jacob and Mehmet
