The Oceanview Inn & Sports Pub in Islamorada, Florida is truly one of the great “Key-Z” destinations in the fabulous Florida Keys.
In 1996 former Pittsburgh Steelers standout Gary Dunn, and former Los Angeles Rams All-Pro Dennis Harrah purchased the Oceanview Inn. The two friends immediately started a complete renovation project with the goal of making the Inn an affordable, tourist-friendly location, while preserving its history and local charm.
The guest rooms were totally remodeled with the emphasis on clean, comfortable accommodations with a tropical flair. Next, the Pub was in line for a complete makeover, including some great new additions while keeping the flavor of the old Keys. A new kitchen was added, and the Pub is now a favorite eatery, sports bar and watering hole for both tourists and locals alike.
In January 2003 the final phase of the makeover was completed with the addition of a beautiful new swimming pool. The pool, as well as a poolside BBQ pit is available to all guests, and world-class fishing, diving and shopping is all within minutes of the Oceanview.
Whether you’re looking for a weekend-get-away or a longer stay, you’ll find the Oceanview Inn & Pub has everything you need to enjoy the perfect Keys vacation.
The Oceanview Pub has been a favorite of local residents, fishermen and charter boat captains for many years. It holds the very first liquor license issued in the Florida Keys. The Pub was starting to show it’s age when the property was purchased by Gary and Dennis in 1996, so the old package store was dismantled, the bar was moved and enlarged, and new tables were added.
The Pub’s kitchen now offers a full late-night menu with everything from burgers and chicken wings to great fish sandwiches, chili, chowders and much more. There’s even great daily home made lunch and dinner specials.
