Travel + Leisure "All 150 breezy rooms at the Reach Resort have coconut-shell headboards, bathrooms with abstract art, and private balconies." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Near Duval Street, the Reach Resort sits on stilts and overlooks the water. Rooms are large, light, and furnished in wicker. Try to book one with ocean views."
Star Service "The air-conditioned lobby is a cool retreat in the sweltering summer months. The decor is bold, theatrical and contemporary, and has much in common with current South Beach trends." Full review
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
Jetsetter "Historic style with Waldorf Astoria polish on Key West's only stretch of natural beach." Full review
Condé Nast Traveler "Rebranded as a Hilton in 2019." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The perfect place to plop down near all the fun of Old Town, but with a sweet bit of beach, a romantic pier to stroll, and a beautiful restaurant and bar with a broad terrace for taking the breeze."
