KEY WEST, FL — April 2017 — The Perry Hotel Key West at Stock Island Marina will welcome its first guests on May 1. The 100-room boutique hotel is located on a private 220-slip marina within the three-year-old Stock Island Marina Village complex, and is helping to establish the area as the most coveted new destination in the Florida Keys.
The Perry’s name dates back to the early 1820’s, paying homage to Commodore Matthew C. Perry, who commanded the USS Shark to Key West and declared the Florida Keys as U.S. soil. The property’s architecture, design, and art are nods to the island’s industrial history and its long tradition of working boatyards, fishing fleets, and marinas. The interior design blends sharp, rugged elements with warm, ocean-inspired touches to evoke the stories of pirates and fishermen who once sought refuge in Safe Harbor, honoring the craft and nostalgia of a bygone era.
“Our team of architects and designers have taken the raw ingredients of this location to create an authentically destination-focused hotel experience,” said partner and lead developer Brad Weiser. Brad is also a principal with Hostmark Hospitality Group, the 50-year-old hotel management company that is leading The Perry’s operations.
“The Perry is not your typical Key West hotel,” said Managing Director Mike Hartman. “You won’t find any gingerbread architecture or cookie-cutter designs here. We’re embracing our amazing waterfront location as part of a story that needs to be told in order to truly understand and appreciate the area’s local culture and unique character. We’re blending history with a modern design to offer guests a completely new experience.”
With unique meeting and event spaces throughout the property including oversized guest suites, The Perry Hotel Key West caters to leisure travelers, weddings, incentive groups, and small destination meetings.
The independently owned and operated hotel is a collaboration between Continental Properties Acquisition Corporation (CPAC), Lubert-Adler Real Estate Funds, and the team behind Stock Island Marina Village. Miami-based CREC managed construction and Illinois-based Hostmark Hospitality Group will oversee operations.
