Concierge "The exclusive Westin resort is located on its own private island a ten-minute boat ride offshore—a nice retreat when the scene in Key West proper gets too hectic."
DK Eyewitness "This ultra-private hotel is located on its own little island. The Sunset Key Guest Cottages with their whitewashed interiors, picture windows, and fabulous views, are ideal for a quiet vacation."
Rough Guide "This luxurious, car-free, manmade island – just 40 years old – features 37 elegant standalone cottages that are like private homes with maid service."

Try to nab one of the cottages on the northwest side for the best sunset views.
Gayot "This isolated beachfront property is a ten-minute boat trip from its host resort, the Hilton Key West. The price of the rooms reflects the seclusion, as well as the pampered attention you'll receive."
Star Service "Located on a 27-acre islet, this hotel is reached via 24-hour ferry leaving from the Westin's dock." Full review

Also, unlike Little Palm Island, guests here can choose whether or not to use their TVs, CDs, DVDs or the Internet.
Travel + Leisure "Guests feel right at home in these spacious abodes, where each morning sees a basket full of fresh fruit and baked goods delivered to their front porch." Full review
Fodor's "Looking for a quiet, island getaway that will afford you pampering and privacy? Look no further." Full review
The Telegraph9.0
"The most exclusive destination in Key West, Sunset Key Guest Cottages are located on the private island of Sunset Key less than a mile off the island’s western coast, accessible only by private ferry." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler Readers' Choice Award
"Sunset Key is a private-island splurge just a skip away from the mainland. The pastel buildings are surrounded by nothing but lush gardens with frangipani, sand, and turquoise blue waters." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Situated on a private, 27-acre island just off Key West, Sunset Key Cottages is "absolute paradise," according to a reader"

Concierge "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."
Fodor's "This revamped destination resort feels like an old-fashioned beach community with picket fences and rocking-chair porches." Full review
Frommer's "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
Star Service " 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
i
Avoid one through six, as these are wedged between the fitness center, the pools and the waterside units.
Rough Guide Star
"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."
Afar Magazine "Key West is tiny -- only 4×2 miles-- so just about every location is a good one." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"Parrot Key, a sophisticated bolthole that is ultra-handy for the nearby frenzy but nicely insulated from it all." Full review
Travel + Leisure "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"
