We all dream about living life on an island and leaving the stress of the world behind. However, most islands have their own stresses. Not Sunset Key. That’s because Opal Resorts manages the entire island. The resort has 35 cottages and 60 private residences, mostly cottages. You can walk the island in ten minutes. Unlike Little Palm Island and so many others, both service and food are superlative. Opal managed to hire amazing staff from both Jamaica and Eastern Europe. Service is impeccable. The chefs must have come from Heaven as Latitude's restaurant delivers morning, day and night. After arriving Key West, you taxi over from their sister property, Opal Key. From there you take a five minute ferry ride. We had a two-bedroom ocean view cottage which featured three baths, nice kitchen stocked with snacks and beverages including a bottle of white and red wine. Amenities include morning basket filled with apples, fresh homemade cookies and the pastry of the day, blueberry muffins are infamous plus OJ. The evening basket includes Kilwin’s chocolates, bottled water. Note: You pay $250 daily for this. But hey, service charges are the norm and at least they deliver the goods. The resort features a free form pool and two spas; beach with full service; gym; and tiny spa (make reservations well in advance). The star of the resort is Latitude's. It’s so popular that locals take the ferry boat over to eat here (make reservations well in advance). The restaurant features a large outdoor space overlooking the ocean (no beach seating), large indoor space for bad weather and nice lounge areas. Food is amazing, fresh, and done right. Count on fresh snapper and grouper daily. Decent wine list and excellent martinis. Yes, there are kids here and they can be very loud especially on a small island like this. But at least the beach is big enough to hide from them and they eat early. Overall, an island worth hanging out for a few days in total comfy luxury. The cottages remind you of being on Nantucket with the white fences, shutters and floral.
