About Ocean Key Resort – A Noble House Resort
Ocean Key Resort sits at Zero Duval Street, at the harbor end of Key West’s most famous street. It is right next to Mallory Square, and its Sunset Pier is one of the best places in town to watch the sun go down.
With 100 rooms, every one with a private furnished balcony, it feels like a boutique waterfront hotel more than a large resort. It suits couples and friends who want to be in the center of the action, with harbor views from their room and a pool bar with ocean views.
