    Beautiful view!

    Had an amazing stay here, customer service was top notch! The place was clean, comfortable, and they had everything you could need! Place was 10 mins from pretty much everything.

    Absolutely great hotel, located in good proximity to the island adventures. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Amenities were great. The 3 room 3 both suite was AWESOME. One master king bed on bottom floor, one cali king suite with glass shower bathroom, and a 3rd suite with 2 queens with matching bathroom. 3 balcony exits for a front and rear balcony. Pool was clean and had good toys for kids to play with. Complimentary water and sparkling organ spritz on multiple areas of hotel. Would return here again.

    The rooms were very clean and spacious! The kitchen was filled with enough culinary to cook. The AC was nice and cool! The pool area was very nice and equipped with bottles of water, cold towels, and pool towels. The facility was very clean and the staff were very kind! The water in the shower did not get super hot unfortunately. You can see the ocean from your balcony, but it did not have beach access. The road between the water and hotel was sometimes loud. It is a 10 minute drive to Duval street! Ride sharing was always available and inexpensive! Overall it is a great place to stay!

    Great for large groups and very nicely decorated and clean. The staff are very friendly and attentive. We had a 3 bedroom suite and it was just the right size. The room and bathroom sizes are spacious. When we called the staff for extra toiletries, they attended us quickly. I also liked the amenities at the pool which had water and sodas as well as cold face towels. I would definitely vacation here again. It's not close to Duval street but it's easy to get a shared service car or taxi.

    I live in las vegas and come to key west every December for my birthday, the Laureate Key will always be my home away from home! The service, rooms, cleanliness, and all around experience is 5 stars for me. It's close to downtown Duval street, shops, restaurants and grocery/shopping centers. This is one of the best hotels in key west (imo!), you will not regret staying here! (When I say close, I mean it's within a 5min drive..not necessarily walking)

    Waited about 20 minutes to check in and wasn't even properly greeted which wasn't a very welcoming feeling. Once we got checked in parked in the back, parking was free. Room was nice, clean , came with a kitchen which included plates, pots , pans sponge and soap, mini fridge , and a little lounge area within the room. Definitely a nice room. Would stay at again if it wasn't to pricey.

    Stayed at the Laureate in Key West from 10/23/23 until 10/27/23. Like the chickens, the roaches must be on the endangered species list since they roam about freely at night and hotel staff live communally with them. When told of the issue, hotel staff took a confrontational approach with the guest(s) while defending the hotel's nocturnal population, bugs. The rudeness, lack of professionalism and curt behavior made the trip less than ideal. I support the endangered chickens. I would like the ban repealed regarding killing roaches. Laureate, please get political and join me in removing bugs from guests rooms! Seriously, the pests were a problem but the staff exacerbated the issue. Not coming back to bug fest. See photo of killed bug and bill indicating $50.00 dollar roach discount/ credit!

    Giving a solid 4 stars. Honestly its much easier to list what could be improved. And considering…read morethis environment, I can only think of a couple. 1. Hot Tin Roof Restaurant. The breakfasts for the price taste dismal and lower quantity. 2 eggs bacon, toast, and chopped potatoes a bit over $20 as most other dishes plus smaller sizes if you just want a donut or similar. The vibe I get is for breakfast this place is for guests who have a hotel package that includes free breakfasts. They also charge a 18% mandatory "service charge" and of course another line for the tip. We didn't do dinner here. I hope its better than the breakfast. 2. We booked under The Edge Chase Sapphire Reserve so its $100 property credit and free breakfasts for 2. When you consider "service charges" tips, taxes, and determine what the credit can be used for, it becomes a bit confusing. I know for a fact that laundry is not included, neither is the $50/day valet parking. Sort of an resort advantage to keep the guest guessing. Drinks food, spa i know are included with the $100. The valet guy was cool and informative. Considering the small island size and the cost of everything, this was a great stay. The room and balcony overlooking Malery Square plus the ocean and Sunset Island were fantastic. I have stayed at many locations over the years and this was by far the best. Pegasus on Duval is a dump. Both Hyatts are nice but on east side of the island so transportation becomes an issue. Do you really want to drive close to Duvall....if you can find a space, then pay for parking? This place is 2 blocks from Sloppy Joe's, Hogsbreath, next to Malerly Square and sunset pier. Walking distance to the hot spots at night.

    Terrible hotel building with terrible customer service…read more Building is old and consist of few buildings combined. Need to change elevator 2 times to go to your room. Rooms are nicely decorated but not what you expect for $1000 a night. They are way over priced for the quality. Front desk staff is terrible. Don't know how to handle issues which you will have plenty. We didn't have AC 2 out of 3 nights and they didn't even feel bad about it. They said basically it is what it is and we have to deal with it. One night they moved us to another room and they were acting like they were doing us a favor. It was major problem for us. second night they moved us to our room which has broken AC And gave us boxed fan to cool off. Front desk manager is clueless and don't know how to handle issues and he has kids working for him who do not know how to handle anything. They are like teenagers. I would never ever stay there again and warn anyone not to there. Oh you will wake up 5am because of dumpster trucks getting the trash and it takes like 20 min. Another thing is their damn roosters , they start 4am and won't let you sleep. Jesus, it was 3 days of hell!

    Another fantastic stay at Opal Key! This was another return visit for us, and once again, we…read moreabsolutely loved it. Check-in was busy when we arrived, but the staff remained friendly, patient, and accommodating. We've stayed here several times over the years, including during the renovations, so we've seen the resort through all its phases. It's wonderful to see everything almost completed, and the property looks great. Throughout every visit, the staff has always gone above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. One thing we've learned is that if you have a special request, just ask , they're happy to help whenever they can. Our two-bedroom suite was perfect for our family. We love the layout and found it incredibly comfortable. While many guests prefer the ocean-view rooms, we actually enjoy them, even with the occasional cruise ship in the harbor. Besides, you're in Key West! Take a walk and explore, you'll find gorgeous ocean views all around the island. The location truly couldn't be better. You're within walking distance of Duval Street, Mallory Square, great restaurants, shopping, and so many Key West attractions. We also had dinner at the newly decorated Lolita's Coastal Cocina, and it was absolutely delicious. A special thank you to Damir K., who has been wonderful throughout our stay. His hospitality, along with the rest of the staff, is one of the many reasons we keep coming back. Keep up the great work, Opal Key...we're already looking forward to our next visit!

Also watch out for the valet guy. I rolled down my car window to find out where I should leave me car while checking in and despite being less than 10 feet away from me, he ignored me and walked away. After I checked in and tried to get my kiddos situated in the lobby with our luggage so I could go self-park the car I finally got his attention by him calling out "hey, can you move your car?" To which I replied "As soon as I'm done doing what I'm doing. And for the record, I tried to ask you where to park and you ignored me and walked away so... sorry, not sorry?"

    The hotel is in a beautiful, picture-perfect setting…read more The check-in process was unpleasant with the clerk seeming to be very annoyed with us. Our room was down a hallway off from the main building and reminded me more of a Days Inn than a resort. The bed was comfortable and the room spacious, but not on the level of a resort.

The hotel is in…read morea great location--about a 20-minute walk to Duval Street--and they offer bike and golf-cart rentals as well. Check-in was easy, and the lobby was very clean and inviting. The property has a bar, café, concierge, and a small restaurant serving breakfast. Our room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable, and the shower had excellent water pressure. We also enjoyed having pool access. The pool was definitely the highlight. It is saltwater and has separate adults-only and children's sections, which was a huge plus. The pool attendants were wonderful, and the pool manager did an exceptional job. Their service is the main reason I would give this hotel three stars instead of fewer. Unfortunately, housekeeping was very slow. Our room was not serviced until around 4 p.m. most days and was not serviced at all on Sunday. This was especially odd because housekeeping staff could be heard speaking loudly in the hallway very early in the morning. We also had one very uncomfortable experience at the hotel bar. A heavily intoxicated gentleman was yelling racial slurs while another woman played country music loudly from her phone. The bartender was alone, and there did not appear to be any security support nearby. We left immediately. Ironically, we had planned to attempt a little ghost-conjuring of our own one evening, given Key West's spooky reputation, but our plans were quickly interrupted by the very drunk man in the lobby yelling racial slurs. It was certainly not the supernatural encounter we had in mind. The hotel does have beach access, although we avoided the beach because of the significant seaweed issue, which was not the hotel's fault. Overall, Casa Marina has a beautiful pool, comfortable rooms, and a convenient location, but the housekeeping delays and bar incident made the experience feel inconsistent.
