The hotel

Opened New Year's Eve 1920, Casa Marina Resort is Key West’s original grand resort! After a $45 million dollar renovation, Casa Marina became part of the Waldorf Astoria Hotels and Resorts. Boasting a dramatic 'water walk' that leads to the resort's two largest swimming pools and the largest private beach in Key West, Casa Marina Resort is a tranquil oasis close enough to the action of Duval Street. Offered on-site is a booking centre for world-class diving, fishing and boating. Casa Marina also has the largest fitness facility in Key West, allowing you to work off those holiday indulgences! Guest rooms at Casa Marina Resort are contemporary in style with whitewashed walls, textured tile floors and dark tropical hardwoods — a great place to retire to at the end of a busy day seeing the sights. For dining the hotel’s Sun Sun restaurant and bar, an open-air wood pavilion overlooking the pools and beach, great for those seeking a casual atmosphere and plenty of that Floridian sun!! And as if all this wasn't enough, you can take advantage of the facilities at the sister property, The Reach, a Waldorf Astoria Resort, one block away.

The staff was extremely rude. Location is nice but that's where it ends. I highly recommend staying anywhere else than here. The rooms weren't very clean, which would have been fine if the service made up for it, but I've received better service at a Hampton. I was asked twice during my stay how I was enjoying it, I provided feedback and they… Read more

I was asked twice during my stay how I was enjoying it, I provided feedback and they did nothing about it. I rarely write a review, but this was so bad I felt like I had to. Read less

Casa Marina Waldorf Astoria is a beautiful location so we went to their brunch. The brunch was $30 per person. The selection of food was less abundant then other brunches I have had for half the price. The food was mediocre. The waitress was sweet and the view was beautiful but not worth the money at all.

Things went downhill in the Uber as we approached your property on DAY ONE. Simply put, it STUNK. The seaweed, etc left on your beach was not cleaned up & the smell was nauseating. I tried to keep it together our entire stay & thought we would become acclimated to it as one who lived in a dumpster would, to no avail. That was just the beginning. In lieu of going into a novel here, I will give you an itemized list of issues we had during our stay. Room issues: Dirty restroom Bugs in our room & bug bites all over legs from the room. Water leaking from above sink onto my property No microwave AC was not as cooling as display Porch was left dirty & sandy with iguana waste everywhere Furniture was damaged & unsightly Towels stunk like mildew Room stunk from outside Shower handle didn’t turn water completely off. Outlets were nonfunctional Resort issues: Booted from occupied space for another guest Drinks were diluted Beach was full of seaweed & stunk Tanning oil was stolen Attendants were extremely slow Rain made walkways slippery & hazardous & I witnessed a serious fall from another guest Vacuum cleaner left in front of door for an entire day Pier on property was never repaired after hurricane TWO years ago.

I am here now and not only did they give away our room that I had selected on online check in but then put us in the room further away possible in a wing building. Even though we checked in on time. Then we find out that the water line is busted and none of the outside bars will serve and we have to utilize little carts to get drinks. This is not… Read more

You do not get what you pay for. We used all of our Hilton Honors points to have a lavish Key West beach vacation and felt like we were robbed.

You do not get what you pay for. We used all of our Hilton Honors points to have a lavish Key West beach vacation and felt like we were robbed. We were completely blindsided by the inability to enter the ocean water because of the resorts seaweed build up. The private beach was small.The piers were damaged and blocked off. All of the resort guests were jammed into the pools which were not clean and missing about two feet of water. The resort rooms were equivalent to a comfort inn and not Waldorf quality. We had a flood the first night and the hotel was unable to find the source of the leak. The resort staff deserves 5 stars for their friendliness and quick service. We did our research and the pictures were so far from reality so I attached as many as this site would allow. Read less
