The 311 rooms span the original 1920 Flagler building and modern additions, with the original building's high-ceilinged rooms providing a sense of proportion that the newer wing cannot match. Beachfront rooms face the Atlantic directly — the sunrise here is the one the island is famous for, and the private beach means you watch it without company unless you invite some. The pool complex runs immediately from the beach, with Azul restaurant providing poolside dining that bridges the gap between a resort lunch and a proper meal. The Flagler Salon spa and the two pools serve a guest population that skews toward couples and families in roughly equal measure, with neither demographic inconveniencing the other. For a Key West honeymoon that wants the beach rather than Duval Street as its centre of gravity, Casa Marina is the correct answer.
For a bachelor or bachelorette group, Casa Marina's private beach provides the best daytime infrastructure on the island: a proper beach, pool service, and enough space that a group of twelve can occupy a stretch of Atlantic without performing for anyone.
