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.

Gayot "Vacationers to Key West in search of serene and elegant accommodations will find just what the doctor ordered at The Reach... The crown jewel of the resort is its 450-foot, white-sand private beach."
Fodor's "Embracing Key West's only natural beach, this full-service resort has its roots in the 1980s when locals rallied against the loss of the topless beach it displaced." Full review

Condé Nast Traveler "Rebranded as a Hilton in 2019." Full review
