[ Google Review ] I am no expert on Key Lime Pie. Come to Key West and you could probably get a different recommendation for the best in the city from each local you ask. However: 1. I have had Key Lime Pie. 2. I really like Key Lime Pie. 3. And when it comes to Kermits, I can say it's some of the best I've ever had. I like the tartness that counterbalanced the sweetness. The crust is thin, but a nice crunchy texture. I really enjoyed the whipped cream on top as well. The Strawberry Key Lime Pie was also very delicious if you're looking for something a little different. It was very strawberry forward, so I think even people who aren't huge fans of the traditional would enjoy this take on a classic dessert. They also serve as a gift shop for many different key lime flavored treats. My opinion, check them out!

[ Google Review ] Great historic building with rooms dedicated to the Cuban martyrs and the cigar workers. The institute is non-profit and they rent out their nice intimate theatre for shows. Free entry for the building. Worth the detour if interested in Cuban or Key West history.

[ Google Review ] This place was amazing. Exceeded my expectations by a ton. It's pet friendly, handicapped accessible, and the staff is so nice and friendly. Everyone was eager to help and hear how my stay was going. The people at the front desk also have many many pamphlets and recommendations on where to eat and what to do during your stay. We ended up taking their advice and doing most of it and we were not disappointed at all! The pool is wonderful, very clean, and open till 11, which is very nice. Beautiful rooms, wonderfully decorated, very spacious. We had the 3 bedroom 3 bathroom suite and it was perfect. The amount of storage was amazing, a TV in every room, along with a few chairs and such. The living room was also gorgeous. The view from both balconies were amazing, and complete with deck furniture that was very comfortable and colorful. However if you're looking for a full amenity resort type hotel, this isn't it. There's no restaurant or fitness center, which is fine by us because we just bought a few groceries for the kitchen and went out to eat most nights. The kitchen is beautiful as well. This hotel is a perfect home away from home, long term stay type place. For the price, it's perfect. Definitely worth it. I loved my stay here and I'm excited to come back. To summarize: • Beautiful Rooms • Wonderful staff • Clean Pool & Bathrooms • Nice views • Very Spacious Definitely a 10/10 in my book. Also, not a huge deal, but I definitely really appreciated it, when room service came in to change our sheets, they tucked my sister's stuffed animal into bed with pillows and it was very cute and sweet. :)

[ Google Review ] Ferry on the way over is nauseating but once you get there it is magical. If you’re able to, please spend the night!! The views are incredibly of the sky. The fort is nice to walk around in but the sand and beach on the island is amazing. Walked into the ocean and immediately saw a stingray. So much wildlife among the coral reefs, it was a really cool experience.
