Hilton has converted the former Ocean's Edge Resort & Marina on Stock Island into Hilton Key West Resort & Marina, its 12th property in the Florida Keys and 175-room debut in Key West. The waterfront resort began accepting stays from July 1, 2026, built around a private marina and six saltwater pools.

Entry rate From $190 Learn more → The place The resort sits on 20 acres at 5950 Peninsular Avenue on Stock Island, at Key West's eastern edge, roughly ten minutes from the airport and six miles from Old Town, with direct frontage on its own marina.
The concept Hilton's conversion of the former Ocean's Edge Resort & Marina gives the brand its 12th Florida Keys property and first foothold in Key West proper, refreshing guest rooms and adding a new Tiki Event Pavilion to an already marina-centric layout aimed at boaters and outdoor-recreation travelers rather than the historic-district crowd.
Dining & wellness Yellowfin Bar & Kitchen serves island-inspired, Asian-influenced cuisine for all three meals, Ocean's Edge Café covers grab-and-go Cuban coffee and breakfast, and the resort's six saltwater pools, full-service marina and complimentary kayaking and paddleboarding anchor its recreation offer.
Our take The marina and six pools do more work than the rooms themselves; this reads as a resort built around water access first, hotel second: a legitimate niche in a Key West market otherwise dominated by historic inns.

Recently completed a 2 night middle of the week stay here in July. Overall the resort was very nice, clean, and modern.
I’ll start with some of the highlights which I enjoyed. The free shuttle to downtown was perfect. The bus was clean and seemed new and the driver Jeffery was very nice! The pool area was beautiful, very clean, free towels and cold water, and overall felt like a tropical oasis. Lastly, the resort was overall very modern and had a beach vibe and I felt completely safe walking around regardless the time of day.
Now some issues/inconveniences I ran into during my stay. First was the construction which is only a temporary thing, the hotel recently came under new ownership. Secondly was the musty smell/location of my room. I booked a partial ocean view balcony room and was told it is first floor when I checked in, nothing online mentioned this, I thought it would be a corner room or something but it’s first floor so the balcony is looking eye level into the pool area, not a huge deal but didn’t use my balcony due to this. The room also had a musty smell to it, however it was a very clean with a nice aesthetic. Lastly I was disappointed to find out that happy hour was unavailable at the pool area and can only be taken advantage of by sitting at the bar or bar area (inside or outside).
Overall if you’re looking for a nice resort away from the busy downtown and plan to enjoy some relaxing time in or out of the pool, I would book here!
We had a beautiful room 4205b - king bed with separate sitting area. Very clean. Loved the decor - seaside vibes. The room still smelled a little like new paint. Lots of space with 2 fridge, microwave, 2 free water bottles, and coffee maker. Lovely view of the inlet and ocean. Extra parking upfront if the inside areas are full. Its about 13 to 22 mins drive to the main tourist areas depending on traffic. They're strict on the 1100 check-out. Downside was one of the towels had a stain and when we called to ask about late check out, someone checked us out early when we left and came back before 1100. Be prepared to pay $$ for taxes and resort fee.

Stayed here for 5 nights. My first 3 nights were while it was still Oceans Edge, and my last 2 were after the transition to Hilton Key West Resort & Marina.
Overall, I had a good stay and would definitely consider coming back. The property is beautiful with multiple pools, a marina, and an hourly shuttle into Key West, which was incredibly convenient. The resort is currently undergoing renovations, and two of the six pools/buildings were closed during my stay. I completely understand renovations are necessary, but I do wish that had been communicated before arrival instead of being a surprise at check-in.
The front desk staff were okay—not the warmest experience I’ve had, especially at this price point. But I recognize they’re likely dealing with the challenges of a major brand transition, so I tried to keep that in perspective.
A huge shoutout to Jeffrey, one of the shuttle drivers. He was genuinely kind, welcoming, and the type of employee who leaves a lasting impression. Great customer service like his is becoming harder to find these days.
My only other suggestion would be to skip the Yellowfin Restaurant and explore the local restaurants instead. I ate there four times during my stay, and while it was convenient, the service was consistently slow and two of my meals were served cold.
Overall, it’s a very nice resort with a lot of potential. Once the renovations are complete and customer service becomes a little more polished, I think this will be an even better place to stay
My family and I spent the most wonderful time here, the place is so beautiful and the service was excellent and I need to say that the service of Beatriz Hernandez was amazing, she solved our request very fast
Overall very happy with our stay here. Great for families, excellent staff & perfect location. Would recommend to friends traveling to key west.
