NYAH Key West - Adults Only
The sunset was gorgeous. But the Caribbean Chicken was waaaay too spicy to eat. Plus we paid $20 a piece extra to get high shelf liquor in our drinks and it was watered down and not the quality of the bottle.

I appreciated the affiliation with Southern Most; being able to use their parking when on the other side of the island. Close proximity to major restaurants and Docks. The Marker has a great breakfast menu and friendly, helpful staff!
