1. Stay at the opulent Casa Marina – A Waldorf Astoria Resort
The Casa Marina was named after the famous hotel built by Henry Flagler. It offers tourists a completely alternate lifestyle than the Old Town. The 'Casa' as it is colloquially called by the locals, has streets with wide boulevards, massive lots, and large homes. The Post-War Modern architecture style was developed in the 1950s and today has many luxurious estates and exclusive mansions that stand in the area.
Casa Marina is walking distance from the Duval Street area and the Atlantic Beaches. There are two restaurants here – Sun Sun and Ramblers, both of which offer spectacular views of the Key West marina. While Sun Sun serves International cuisine with a Key West twist, Ramblers is more of a patisserie that dishes out breakfast pastries, Lavazza coffee, salads, sandwiches and gelato.
2. Order a prime cut of meat at Prime 951 Steak House
Prime Steak House in the Old Town District has a menu that boasts of prime cuts of meat, seafood fresh off the boats, and a grand selection of wines and tropical cocktails. Your steak will be served to you on a traditional cutting board with a side of juicy, melt-in-your-mouth roasted head of garlic, fresh rosemary and a red-wine demi-glaze. You'll find it hard to choose between the filet mignon, the ribeye, the New York strip, the porterhouse, the veal chop and the surf and turf.
3. Go all the way at the The Spa on Sunset Key
The exclusive 27-acre Sunset Key has a spa as luxurious as the resort itself. If you are in need of indulging and spoiling yourself, you are in the right place. This oasis has a team of skilled therapists who offer a whole host of treatments. Choose from energizing and renewing wraps, facials, body treatments and massages as you relax in the elegant spa treatment suites which are decorated with tropical flowers.
Head out through the French doors, out to the private patios where you can relax after your treatment. Each treatment session has an extra 25-minute relaxation time where you can unwind at your own pace. Each suite has a fully-equipped bathroom with sundries and other essentials where you can shower or wash up in total privacy.
4. Treat yourself to a private sunset sail
A sunset dinner cruise is one of the best ways to get up close to the emerald waters of Key West and see the island. Many cruise companies will organize an exclusive sunset sail at an extra cost where you can traverse areas like Fort Zachary Taylor, Mallory Square, Sand Key Reef, and Sunset Pier to name a few.
