“This expansion is about more than adding new suites – it’s about deepening the connection between our guests and this extraordinary setting,” said John Hearns, General Manager at Baker’s Cay Resort. “We’ve created spaces that are both refined and rooted, inviting guests to relax, recharge, and reconnect in one of the most naturally inspiring places in the Keys.”
Inside, suites feature calming palettes of oceanic blues and sun-washed neutrals layered with driftwood-inspired tones, reef-like textures, and locally sourced artwork. Open, airy layouts offer
abundant natural light and organic elements, bringing the surrounding landscape into every corner.
