Unlock Key West’s time-honoured charm from this modern boho escape

Established in 1884 and reborn as a boutique escape, Ridley House blends retro refinement with breezy boho modernity. Throw open the shutters to welcome in the Key West sunshine and sway the day away on rocking chairs set along private porches framed by classic white picket fencing. Each afternoon is punctuated by the daily Cypress Sangria Soiree, served beneath fringed parasols poolside at 3:00 pm.

Originally owned by naturalist Richard Kemp, who discovered the Ridley Sea Turtle, the hotel reflects its heritage in both name and nature. White clapperboard exteriors and coffee-toned wooden floors nod to the building’s roots, while striking pendant lights, monochrome palettes, and contemporary furnishings topped with pastel rotary phones bring the vintage aesthetic into the present. Within its collection of rooms and suites is the beloved Books & Books King Suite, curated by local favorite Books & Books and designed for bibliophiles.
