Pet friendly hotels in Key West

Hotels in Key West, Florida where our source data confirms pets are allowed. Fees and room limits vary - confirm with the property.

Pets allowed
26 qualifying stays

Pets allowed is a clean field in our source data, so this shortlist is one of the more reliable ones on the site. The conditions are not: fees, weight limits and eligible room types change often and are set by each property.

Key West is small enough that almost everything sits within a few blocks of Duval Street, which is both the appeal and the trade-off. Old Town holds the conch houses, the wraparound porches and most of the guesthouses; the newer resorts sit further out toward the airport. Many properties here are adults-only, so check before booking with children.

The shortlist

Only 4 qualifying stays here. That is below the five-property minimum we set for a shortlist worth publishing, so this page is not in our search index. We are showing what we have rather than padding the list with properties we would not pick.

What is the Charming Score?

It is our own 0-10 selection score, not a guest rating. It combines the Booking.com guest score (45%), review volume (20%), property class (10%), amenity fit (10%), independence and property character (10%) and price positioning (5%). The full method is published on the Charming Score page.

Have you stayed at these hotels?

No, and we do not pretend otherwise. Our selections come from guest data, property facts and location, not from first-hand visits. Our editorial policy explains exactly what we do and do not claim.
