Property Description
Thank you for considering Hawk's Cay Island Resort to host your event. Our island is a truly romantic and unique destination. A recipient of the prestigious AAA Four Diamond Award and a member of the Preferred Hotel Group Lifestyle Collection, Hawks Cay Resort is located on Duck Key in the Middle Florida Keys. Situated roughly halfway between Key Largo and Key West at mile marker 61, this 60-acre, tropical destination is easily accessible by car, boat or plane yet feels worlds away from everyday life. Our recent renovation includes a complete redesign of the main lobby and all 177 hotel guestrooms, plus the introduction of a new signature restaurant and fast-casual family-style eatery. Alongside the aquamarine water of the Atlantic Ocean, guests enjoy offshore, flats and backcountry fishing; diving; kayaking; kiteboarding and standup paddleboarding programs; Cliff Drysdale tennis program; Segway tours and the only resort-based Dolphin Connection program with complimentary daily viewings in the continental U.S. There are countless reasons to celebrate your special event here at Hawks Cay Resort. We invite you to come see what you what you're missing out on!
