Tucked between Old Town Key West and the ocean, Pier House Resort & Spa has been a beloved Florida Keys escape for nearly 60 years and it’s easy to see why. With its private beach, island-chic rooms, award-winning spa, and some of the most iconic watering holes on the island, this resort blends relaxed Keys spirit with effortless luxury. Here are five reasons why we selected the resort as our Destination of the Week.

1. A Private Beach in the Heart of Key West

Pier House offers something rare on the island: its own private, white-sand beach. Guests can swim, sun, sip tropical cocktails from the beach bar, and enjoy uninterrupted Gulf views steps from their room.

2. Island-Chic Rooms and Suites for Every Style

From traditional guest rooms and garden-view Lanais to roomy one and two-bedroom suites, accommodations are designed for easygoing comfort. Many offer ocean views, oversized layouts, or direct waterfront access.

3. Three Distinct Dining Experiences

Start your day with coastal favorites at the waterfront Harbor View Café, linger over tropical bites at the laid-back Three Palms Beach Bar, and savor refined island cuisine at the signature restaurant One Duval.

4. Key West’s Only Full-Service Spa

The Spa at Pier House is a serene retreat with a full menu of massages, facials, and body treatments including couples’ options. It’s the perfect place to unwind into a true Key West state of mind.

5. Iconic Key West Culture at the Chart Room

A legendary hideaway frequented by Jimmy Buffett, Mel Fisher, and Louis Armstrong, the Chart Room Bar is pure, old-school Key West.

Whether you’re chasing sunsets, craving relaxation, or looking to immerse yourself in classic Key West charm, Pier House Resort & Spa delivers an experience that feels both timeless and totally transportive.
