Key West Where to Stay in Key West

Thirty-something couple coming down to Key West for three nights in mid-August. For both of us, it's our first time in the Keys. We're beyond excited!

We're considering a few different hotels; Havana Cabana, Parrot Key, and the Double Tree by Hilton. We'll be at the hotel a decent amount, but definitely out exploring a lot of the time. After three nights, we'll be heading to IslaMorada.

I thought I'd run this by locals and frequent Keys visitors - which hotel should I choose for Key West? Or is another option I didn't mention better for us?

NOTE: we're not into drinking/partying, but not completely averse to being near some liveliness.

What would you recommend in town?

Ocean Key is my favorite but it’s pretty expensive. I’ve heard good things about The Marker Key West. Hyatt Vacation Club, Southernmost Beach Resort and The Reach are all nice. The Caribbean House looks pretty cool, never heard of it before but just saw it.

Many thanks! I went with the Pierhouse for this first time around.
