Hey all,
we are headed to Key West this January and didn't know if anyone had any good tips on a rental down there. There will be 3 adults and the kid. Looking for something that has 3 beds and a pool. Any info is greatly appreciated. The last time we were in Key West was June of 2000 when we eloped and got hitched on the Galleon resort beach. Thanks in advance!

Get ready to open your wallet...big time!
January is peak time. Regular chain hotels are ~$500/night. You didn't say how long, but if more than a couple of nights, obvious choice is also VRBO, Airbnb, etc.

My wife is a "Conch" and we own property in KW, but it is amazing the prices there these days. We're going down in Feb2023 for a niece's wedding and looking at $1,000 a NIGHT! Yikes!
I've tried to advise her to elope too. They've been together for 8-years. Geeezeee

Thanks for the response. I ended up finally using some Hilton points to stay at the Hampton Inn and a free weekend night I had. It seemed like the best option. Good luck in February!!!

Have a great trip. Hampton has a BAR & GRILL! Each room gets 2 free drinks per day. Never heard of a Hampton having one until we stayed there in May. Closes early @ around 9 p.m. If you plan to use the downtown shuttle, make sure you sign up @ the desk. Some folks were asked to get off as they had not reserved space and others who had not boarded yet had reserved a seat. It's a smaller bus so seats are usually full.
