The Best Spa Hotels and Yoga Retreats in Key West, Florida
Key West, Florida’s southernmost point, is an island more known for its coral reefs and diving opportunities than its beaches. Closer to Cuba than to Miami, distance-wise, it was referred to as Cayo Hueso in Spanish, and changed hands several times between colonial powers before it became part of the US. Take advantage of the plethora of water sports on offer, as well as the active nightlife, before relaxing in one of the best spa hotels in Key West, bookable with Culture Trip.

Oceans Edge Resort & Marina, for tranquil island life

The six swimming pools and 165-slip full-service marina at the end of a slender finger of land that’s part of Stock Island make Oceans Edge the place for those who want to get away from it all – though there’s an hourly shuttle to downtown Key West for those who want to explore the town. The rooms are breezy and decorated in nautical white and navy, and you can enjoy the slower pace of life by pedaling around the island on a complimentary bicycle.
