The hotel

Key West's historic Old Town has an enchanting ambience with its pretty, tree-lined streets and ornate architecture. The Ocean Key Resort is one of the only hotels to be located right on Mallory Square, overlooking the ocean and giving you front-row seats to the spectacular sunsets. Myriad street entertainers make the square come alive and you can wander between jugglers, 'statues' and performers — or simply retire to the hotel's fantastic Sunset Pier bar and grill, which serves delicious chargrilled seafood and refreshing cocktails with which to toast the setting sun.

Unbeatable location on the meeting place of the ocean and the vibrant end of Duval. Staff was excellent and the one-bedroom suite was clean, spacious, and well appointed. Resort amenities were great. Stayed with a child without trouble. If you want to elevate your stay in Key West, this is the place to do it.

Love this hotel. Key West is our little getaway place from life and go down practically every couple months. We have stayed at many hotels on the island, and this by far was our favorite. All the staff was super attentive and on their game. You feel very tended to and pampered at this hotel. I mean, you really can't beat the location as you can… Read more
Love this hotel. Key West is our little getaway place from life and go down practically every couple months. We have stayed at many hotels on the island, and this by far was our favorite. All the staff was super attentive and on their game. You feel very tended to and pampered at this hotel. I mean, you really can't beat the location as you can stumble out to Mallory Square and Duval (no need for an Uber), and cannot say enough good things about this place. Thank you Ocean Key!!! You made it a really great experience for my family. We will be back. Read less

We enjoyed every moment of our stay here at Ocean Key resort. We cannot wait to return and would not stay anywhere else. The staff was so accommodating and friendly. The location was perfect and the hotel was beautiful! Hot tin restaurant was delicious and sunset pier was beautiful. We can’t wait to come again!

Woo Hoo! Just got back from an amazing stay at Ocean Key and had to shout out! On our very first trip to Key West we stayed at one of the 'value' hotels. We took the Bone shuttle to see the sunset at Mallory Square and saw the Ocean Key, situated right next to Mallory Sq. and the Sunset Pier, right on the ocean and said 'let's stay there next trip'. Fast forward from that next Key West visit, we are now 20+ years along, tons of visits, we never stay anywhere else! Highlights... Enjoying morning coffee and evening drinks on our balcony (you can even hear the live music from the Sunset Pier from your balcony!) (No matter what your price point, all rooms have amazing balconies overlooking Mallory Square and the ocean, or Sunset Pier or Old Town). Watching the street performers and sunset from Mallory Square which is literally right next to the hotel, or if you prefer, seeing the sunset while enjoying a cocktail in the oceanfront pool! Being less than a block away from the bars and restaurants on and around Duval St. There is even a CVS also less than a block away from the hotel. An amazing concierge who can book your watersports, etc. and saved us a bunch of money over booking directly with the company. Welcome cocktail at checkin. Amazing friendly staff! Thanks Ocean Key!

Its a fantastic location. The rooms are fun. But it's a confusing set up. Bad access to rooms, through a dark parking garage at night felt unsafe. There were bugs and lizards in the elevators and room. Also a large number of extra costs you can't opt out of. Fun concept but poorly executed.
