56 miles distance from Key West International Airport

“This is a cool, unpretentious spot with a great vibe, particularly for those seeking a relaxed beach and pool experience. The location is a bit removed from town, yet close to Curry Hammock, adding a touch of seclusion; be sure to book the restaurant in advance, as its chef is a local favorite. It's a solid choice for a laid-back Keys getaway.”
