Fodor's Expert Review The Perry Hotel

This industrial-chic stunner—where spacious, airy rooms juxtapose crisp white linens with furnishings and fixtures in rich chocolate-browns and shades of gray—has made off-the-beaten-path Stock Island a Key West destination. The hotel is surrounded by water, so many of the rooms have truly wonderful views, and canine pals are welcome here, with pet-friendly amenities that include a dog park. Matt's Stock Island serves up some of the area's most creative food, with dishes such as crab beignets or grouper with cornbread gnudi (gnocchi-like dumplings).
