Recently my husband and I spent a long weekend in Key West. We have been to Key West several times before but this was our first stay at Ocean Key. From a service/personnel standpoint, we felt the experience could not have been better. Ali and Hastings in Reservations, Nate and the women who work at the pool/Liquid Lounge, Joseph and his team at Hot Tin Roof, the valets, and Hugo and his team at the Front Desk---everyone was friendly and more than willing to entertain any request to improve our stay. We did not use the services of the concierge, but saw her helping others, always with a warm smile. Our room—a corner Oceanfront Suite -- was clean, spacious and well-appointed in the tropical color palette depicted in the online photos. The room had a tremendous view, and the bed and bath linens were all soft and clean and the quality of the provided toiletries was a bonus. Room service came on time (with a courtesy call preceding its delivery) and the food was delicious—especially the Cole’s Peace whole grain toast. (Our dinner at Hot Tin Roof was inspired as well.) Guests are able to select the time when they would like housekeeping to visit each day which was also nice. We had no problems with the Internet or television. Although a mechanical system problem did occur, it was quickly handled by Hugo and his staff in a manner exceeding our expectations. With its location on Mallory Square/the end of Duval, there can be roosters crowing, and some harbor noise from the happy crowd below (sometimes including live music), but we did not find any of it to ever be at an objectionable level and it all but disappeared when we closed the balcony doors. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ocean Key and hope to return soon. It has a 5-star staff from top to bottom.
