Glad there's a lot of folks like you that like a boring life without seasons where it's too hot...lol. I've sailed the Keys and ripped around in a hydrofoiling trimaran. The road to Keys can be hell. Pick your time wisely. Eeek.

Spent the month of March in a house on Sunset Key Island in 2022. I enjoyed the island. Loved going by Judy Bloom's bookstore when friends visited. Restaurants were good. It was good to get back to Sunset Key at the end of a long day on Key West. Lot's of people!

Yes, Sunset Key is definitely peaceful.....and Key West is definitely not! It's great to have "Books and Books," so many other bookstores have closed. Thanks for watching.

I loved your video because KW is like a second home to us, since the 1960s. I haven't been there for a couple of years and see they have done a lot of work here and there. One of my favorite places there isn't a tourist spot, but it's right there at the southernmost point. The house right next to it is called The Southernmost Southernmost House! There are lots of things you can consider for future videos, like Mallory Square and celebrating the sunset and all the action around there. The cemetery is quite interesting and a nice place to take a break when you're biking around town. Interesting wildlife around too, like the chickens and you may even see a few 6-toed cats, descendents of Hemmingway's cats. Even the trees around there tell tales, like the big banyan, and the kapok tree in front of the courthouse. We were so worried that one would not have survived the hurricane of a few years ago, but luckily it did. At the main entrance to the cemetery is a cool looking tree; at certain times of the year it looks like there are big orchids hanging from it! So there is lots of diverse flora and fauna! I hope I still recognize the place after not having been there for a little while!
@ColleenAndGary 12 күн бұрын
Oh, I'm sure you'll still recognize it. They can't clean it up that much! Excellent ideas for future videos. Now we just have to get out there and do it......we're a bit lazy. Thanks for watching and we hope to have a new Key West video soon.

You're video was done very well, I enjoyed it very much. The only exception is your pronunciation of "Cadiz"; you can say it by pronouncing the "z" as an "s", however, the correct pronunciation ends with the "z" sounding like a soft "th". It is not, "Cah-dee".

We love Key West, but unfortunately the prices of hotels have gone up so much in the last 5 years that it’s becoming unaffordable for us… Can you recommend any hotels or places to stay that are nice , but still affordable?
@ColleenAndGary 27 күн бұрын
Yes, accommodations are expensive, especially during high season. Try visiting in late April, May or June (before hurricane season) or November. Check out the Best Western Hibiscus. Some friends stayed there last March. They thought it was a nice place and reasonably priced. If you can stay for a full week, the vacation rentals in Truman Annex might be a good choice.

The Pier House resort is a waterfront hotel (gulf side) with a variety of room choices and large spa. Although it's not waterfront, H2O Suites offers rooms with a private pool. For a more intimate experience, check out some of our historic inns. The Gardens Hotel on Angela Street is a lovely property. Island City House and the Marquesa are also nice. Enjoy your time in Key West.
