This fall, the iconic Baker’s Cay Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton, will unveil 12 new luxury suites, adding a fresh chapter to one of the Florida Keys’ most storied destinations. Nestled along Florida Bay on the site of a historic pineapple plantation, the resort’s expansion deepens its reputation as a retreat that harmonizes refined comfort with an authentic island spirit.
The new accommodations include Waterview Palm Suites, Partial Waterview Palm Suites, and Paradise Suites, each designed to immerse guests in the natural and cultural richness of the Keys. Drawing from the region’s maritime history, topography, and art culture, the suites balance comfort with character.
Inside, calming palettes of oceanic blues and sun-washed neutrals are layered with driftwood-inspired tones, reef-like textures, and locally sourced artwork. Open layouts maximize natural light, creating an airy connection between interiors and the surrounding tropical landscape.
“This expansion is about more than adding new suites – it’s about deepening the connection between our guests and this extraordinary setting. 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.”General Manager John Hearns

Guests can spend their days paddleboarding along the bay, lounging on the beachfront, or participating in eco-programming that underscores the resort’s commitment to sustainability.
