Why Key West?

Key West is a tropical party island where Duval Street runs from the Atlantic to the Gulf and every bar along the way is packed. The vibe is laid-back and unapologetically boozy — sunset celebrations at Mallory Square, open-air bars everywhere, and a strong 'no judgement' energy that makes it perfect for party weekends.
