“A Perfect Vacation”

Alexander's Guesthouse

Jul 6, 2008

This was our first vacation in Key West and I do not believe any place could have been better then Alexanders Guesthouse. The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, the room was clean and comfortable and the grounds were great.

We always looked forward to coming back and spending time at the guesthouse throughout the day. Whether to lay by the pool or have cocktails at the happy hour.

We definitely will be back!

“Amazing Alexander's Guesthouse”

Alexander's Guesthouse

Jul 6, 2008

We enjoyed 3 beautiful nights at Alexander's Guesthouse's apartment - room 17. It is like having your own home within a hotel. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend this resort to other GLBT travelers. Thanks for a great weekend.

My first time ever to KEY WEST, FL and a very memorable trip in so many ways. First and foremost it was the first vacation together with my partner (going on 2 years now) and much needed quality time together being that we're doing the long distance relationship. I didnt have any expectations whatsoever of KEY WEST. I went with an open mind knowing that I was going to be with my partner ABOVE and FOREMOST. The accomodations just added to the experience. Alexander's Guesthouse is clean, homey, friendly, inviting, and close enough yet far enough away from the main strip. Our room was on the second floor overlooking the pool. The living quarters were tight yet comfortable for 2. The bed was probably one of the most comfortable mattresses I've ever slept in, and it got it's workout to say the least :) The staff, very accomodating, fri
endly, and very helpful in advising on activities, restaurants, etc. HAPPY hour was great every day, and above and foremost it was QUIET enough that I went away relaxed, revived, and a smile on my face. My partner and I are talking about making this an every year event. I cant wait to go back! Even though my arthritis was worse being that close to the Equator...hehehe. My deepest thanks to the staff of ALEXANDER'S.

I recently stayed at Alexander 's and I must say it 's from far the best guest house i ever stayed. in The guest house is absolutely adorable and the rooms are great. My room has french doors giving on the first floor porch which i loved.
The staff a Alexander's was so welcoming and helpful (Laura, Philippe , Michael, Fred). They would faciltate all our reservations and they all know Key West by heart and their suggestions made my stay even better.
As for the other guests, we had a blast. The atmosphere is very friendly and having travelled by myself , i never felt left out. we went to diner several times together and had a memorable jet sky trip.The breakfast was great around the swimming pool and every one got back from their various activities for the best happy hour ever.
For my next trip, i wouldn't even consider staying anywhere else.
Leaving Key West at the end of my vacation was hard and leaving Alexander's was even harder.

“Loved the atmosphere”

Alexander's Guesthouse

1/1 found this review helpful

I think this was one of the nicest gay and lesbian guest houses I have stayed at, quaint, charming friendly staff, excellent decor and good location. My partner and I went and would return for sure except next time I will spend more time relaxing by the pool.
