I currently have reservations at the DoubleTree Grand Key and the Sheraton Suites. Any comments from folks who have stayed in both?
Also, I understand that Key West doesn't have much in the way of beaches- do nearby islands have better beaches?
In town, Zachary Taylor State Park has a nice beach. They rent beach chairs, and sell key lime pie popsicles.
If you can swing it, go out to Dry Tortugas. Fantastic beach, and the Yankee Freedom ferry is well organized. The trip was $167 per person last year.
I haven't been yet myself, but I've heard good things about Bahia Honda State Park.
