We arrived in Miami last night. After a good nights rest at the airport Residence Inn, we picked up a rental car this morning and drove 4 1/2 hrs to The Saint Hotel Key West, a Marriott 5-Star Autograph Collection hotel.
Along the way we stopped for lunch at The Overseas Pub & Grill on Marathon Key, dating back to 1935. We sat outside on the patio (on the other side) and enjoyed the cool 80 breeze. The food was outstanding. Here is a picture taken in the 50's. Didn't take a picture but it looks about the same.
Lots of lobster traps along the way.
The Saint is located right in the heart old downton adjacent to Duval street, the major street here in Key West with a multitude of shops and places to eat. This hotel is a boutique hotel and we'll stay here until Thursday. Our room is Hollywood style and overlooks the pool.
Check out the cinema across the street.
After getting settled in, we walked around for awhile before stopping for late afternoon ice cream.
Dinner tonight was at Old Town Mexican Cafe, to include a margarita for Bill and pina colata for Karen. They were refreshing and the food and ambiance was just what we needed.
Following a stroll around town after dinner, a little relaxing in the pool. Great way to start the Key West adventure.
