"If you don't mind being a short drive from Duval Street and the Old Town action, this quiet resort is made up of typical Conch-style bungalows set among lush tropical foliage."
"This revamped destination resort feels like an old-fashioned beach community with picket fences and rocking-chair porches." Full review
"Parrot Key's waterfront Conch-style cottages, suites, and rooms are the epitome of beachy luxury and are the largest available in Key West." Full review
" It is waterfront, but not beachfront—however, there is a narrow manmade beach abutting the bay. There are four nicely landscaped pools just in case." Full review

"One of the most luxurious resorts in town, with tranquil Conch-style houses (one-two-and-three bedroom) with back porches, whimsical furniture, full kitchens and plasma TVs."
"Key West is tiny -- only 4×2 miles-- so just about every location is a good one." Full review
8.0
"Parrot Key, a sophisticated bolthole that is ultra-handy for the nearby frenzy but nicely insulated from it all." Full review
"This may be the ultimate Key West hideaway — hidden off a main drag and completely enveloped in lush plantings and holding three (count them!) swimming pools as well as a beachy stretch"
